    Best FPS I've played since Doom Eternal. Most enjoyable open-world FPS since Far Cry 3. Perfectly reinvigorated the franchise after lack luster entries with Halo 4 and Halo 5. While Echo 216 was a bit irritating, the relationship between Master Chief and Weapon was very well done. I hope we get single player story DLC - maybe another section or two of the ring to explore.

    wasn't for me, campaign and gunplay were ok but wasn't to keen on the art style of the game as i felt i preferred halo 5 guardians much better.

Becoming better at halo and learning how to play the game better is much more rewarding than your other FPS games, if you have put halo down in the last year then now is the time to return and dip your toe again.

    Unfinished, and stagnant. Overall just a shell of unkept promises saying it will be better later, no updates, and very aggressive micro transactions taking away features so they can sell us a solution. Story is boring, sandbox is a basic Ubisoft game.

    Review only for the campaign. After the big hype, I decided to play my first Halo game ever. Because it's a whole series I thought the plot will heavily rely on at least the previous title.

Because it's a whole series I thought the plot will heavily rely on at least the previous title. After copious reading and watching recaps on YT, it turns out that they simply scrapped the buildup of Halo 5. Instead of continuation, we have a kind of soft reboot where throughout the game we learn about events that had already happened. I hoped to find something more than plot exposition about things that 343 wrote off in the background.

    The game begins on a high note but loses a lot of its charm when we progress to the open-world part where things get very repetitive: Go to point A; Plug in the Blue woman to the thingy; Listen to Blue woman talking with Green Man; proceed to do the same thing in other parts of the map; Oh sometimes the big red guy talks through a hologram. Before you have a chance to plug the blue woman into some apparatus you have to destroy some coils, get power cells and clear out FOBs to get access to fast travel, weapons, and vehicles. If you are a completionist you can do other very repetitive things like destroying propaganda towers or collecting audio logs.

    The plot is really weak, and like I said it consists mostly of Master Chief talking with the Weapon. I liked the combat, especially the grappling hook that allowed me to be more dynamic and creative on the battlefield. Boss fights are simply awful. You are trapped in a small arena with a guy that is simply a bullet sponge. They made the combat area small to hide the fact that boss AI is basic, helped by high damage and HP. The hammer guy is the worst boss I fought in a long time. He is not challenging in a good way, this fight is simply annoying. If you go into it with bad weapons you are screwed because he jumps across the room and 1-2 shots you.

    The grunts made my day many times with their humorous quips, so big thumbs up for that - the grunt communications officer is an especially funny one.

    A jogatina é de longe a mais fluida da saga, os gráficos são de tirar o fôlego e a história segue excelente, dando uma reviravolta na história morna de Halo 5: Guardians.

    This review contains spoilers, click expand to view. This game is amazing, best gameplay ever in a Halo game. Multiplayer is lots of fun, and super addicting. The Campaign had a great story with the best visuals the series has to showcase. The new control mechanics with the grappling hook are a total game changer, from dodging enemies to climbing mountains it really speeds up the gameplay.
    The online multiplayer needs work, I find myself getting kicked from lobbies after games often, and then I'm forced to shut the game down and re-start to find a match. That's my only complaint with this amazing game.

    Solid story, incredible gameplay and one of the most amazing sandboxes in an FPS game to date. The only cons are biome diversity and the feeling that it needed more content.

    Best Halo game since reach. The gameplay is the best in the series, the story is alright, but they left a lot of unanswered questions that will be answered in the expansions. Multiplayer is seriously lacking content though. It’s been 4 months since the game came out and still no new maps….

    Oh, Master Chief, the things you had to go through to arrive at this desolate "Zeta" Halo... they jettisoned you into Space (several times), just to be deep-frozen and then found again to be reactivated as the pinnacle of UNSC's forces, a shining beacon of hope for the troops thanks to your almost wordless performance as a human-formed tank, protecting the most sophisticated AI fromOh, Master Chief, the things you had to go through to arrive at this desolate "Zeta" Halo... they jettisoned you into Space (several times), just to be deep-frozen and then found again to be reactivated as the pinnacle of UNSC's forces, a shining beacon of hope for the troops thanks to your almost wordless performance as a human-formed tank, protecting the most sophisticated AI from falling into the enemy's grubby hands/claws/tentacles or whatever it is the manifold multi-racial gang-up on humanity are featuring in the limbs department.

    The premise, once again, is a lone Master Chief floating in space, being picked up by an Antonio Banderas-type lone surviving the latest onslaught of the Aliens vs. Humanty UNSC pilot - who Master Chief will find out more about during the story, and again with the typical non-talking attitude most seem to love about the almost silent Hero of Halo. At the outset, it doesn't look too good for UNSC and the rest of Humanity. They seem devastated by the latest attack of the "Banished" on Earth and the defending forces.

    With that premise, Master Chief and the lone pilot team up, unwillingly on the Pilot's side, to disover they're near a Halo Ring named "ZETA".

    Of course, no Halo can begin without a huge Warship being brought done by Master Chief himself on his lonesome, so that's how we do it again, crashing on the Zeta Halo as a result.

    On there, we find ourselves in an open-world type situation where Master Chief can roam freely after doing some initial missions, and then to discover that potentially a Rogue AI that he might know very well and which since their last meeting has kind of went insane is still around. Master Chief was originally tasked with "deleting" Cortana, said Rogue AI, but has catastrophically failed to do this at the end of the Halo 5 story arch.

    Being provided with a new "Set to Kill Cortana" deletion routine, which miraculously looks like her target as a hologram (and has the same one-size-fits-all-AI voice acting) they set out on the lone and partially deactivated and destroyed Zeta Halo to find out what's going on.

    Not only is the Halo on the brink of being active again - and that is never a good thing with Halo Rings, as the avid player should know - but it's also swarming with "Banished", a ragtag team-up of the Aliens who originally set out to to kill humanity for what seems like Religious reasons - always a great reason to start a war, really!

    Is the open world any good? It depends on what you like about Halo. If you like killing all sorts of Aliens with different kinds of Weapons while roaming on a "free" scenario instead of following invisible tunnels while doing it? Then this is your kind of Halo!

    Do you like teaming up with dumbass AI Marines you have to "free" from being captured by the Aliens strewn about the Halo Ring in different locations, and the more you free, the more will be roaming around, trying to help you reclaim the Halo and prevent it from being fired?

    Well, I'm glad to say, this is your Halo!

    If you, like me, however care about Weapon Balance, a semblance of a coherent story, smart AI colleagues that do not get frequently crushed by Warthogs you call in at various bases by running right below the area they're being dropped on to... I am sad to say you will not like that Halo experience. As that is exactly what you're getting.

    A loosely clobbered together Halo on an open-world Setting that you can traverse within 5 Minutes or so on an aircraft - which you will unlock very late in the endgame to help you reach those far-out places where the legendary Skulls are hidding which help you unlock even more hardcore settings to make the game harder.

    Talking about hard: the enemy AI is not that smart, but it's as usually balanced out by kicking things up a notch. I got the distinct feeling that the "normal" setting is the new "hard" in this iteration of Halo. And I finished all of them on Legendary difficulty.

    Some of the patterns of attack just are there to annoy you and make the game frustrating, like the snipers being perched kind of everywhere, and with rifles that will disable your aircraft in mid-flight... not sure making a single player/coop game frustrating is the way to go, 343 Industries.

    Oh, and a fair word of warning at the end:
    There are small and bigger bugs aplenty in this one from the get-go and no patches in sight (December, 2021)... like "Speed Lines" options you disable but which don't stick and you have to disable them again and again when you restart...

    If you're an old-school Halo player like me, you'll get your 10 hours of enjoyment out of it, but in my case I have to say: begrudgingly so!

    por otro lado, la historia es absorbente, es un juego corto pero que muestra mucha alma a nivel de desarrollo, logras empatizar con personajes, lo demás se deja para que lo jueguen.

    Single player is focused on an open world with some tunneled missions. It really has an old Halo trilogy feeling. Graphics are great. Shooting is great with well done controls and mouse and keyboard support. Singleplayer is entertaining but have some flaws. Just to mention stupid AI of some enemies and your teammates. Let's say it's 7/10 and still one of the best halo experiences.
    Let's talk now about multiplayer. This one is just fantastic! It's like a mix of unreal tournament and more tactical counter strike. I did not have such a good fan in multi for years. Definitely one of the best on consoles. I only wish to have ranked matches improved to get rid of people leaving the match before it's end. Then it would be simply 10/10. I was playing on both controller and mouse keyboard, both have very good feeling, if you change some settings before.

The customization options are below average such as not being able to choose your own armor coatings, little amount of choices, and the only way to get more is by paying actual money for credits on a free game is unbelievable. So that deducts points from my perspective. But nonetheless, If you’re a Halo fan, I’d highly recommend this game for the campaign.

To start with positives I think the graphics and presentation are solid. environments on max settings look flawless and while the enemies on closeup could use some work, it doesn't take away. The gameplay is roughly the same as previous Halo games but with the added grapple hook. For once, however, the grapple hook is actually a good new feature mainly because it can be used in a variety of ways. You can just grapple around the map, or grapple on an enemy, or grapple and explosive and throw it at an enemy, It works really well. However what works less well is the newest feature, the open world. Halo has done what thousands of games have done before which is have general story content in one area with dozens of side missions and collectibles scattered around a baron wasteland, and it really doesn't work the best in this case. The open-world Halo concept is good but the execution is abysmal. The easiest way to fix it is to have different weathers occasionally or to change the environments from grassy mountains. Maybe have different biomes to show the player they have made progress. The last thing to talk about is the story, which is my biggest issue. 343 had written themselves into a corner with Halo 5 and most of this game's story is trying to retcon that, and while the retconning works, it gives this game a less grand feeling. The protagonists have solid camaraderie and I am happy to finally see a well-written supporting character. I think Esparza should have been in the game more because he's the one character that players can latch on to, but I can't say the same for the villains. The game I would say has 4 villains, which is really unnecessary. Escharum is very underutilized and doesn't feel like a legitimate threat because he never makes any big plays. If he was replaced with Atriox, a character who was shown in previous games and the opening of this game, then the story would have worked better. Blademaster was underused and the harbinger is 343's brand of an evil alien race that master chief has to defeat. If you had 2 villains and nothing more the game would be significantly better. Overall, a good step in the right direction for 343 but an overall meh to a decent game. Expand

    Le sienta muy bien el mundo abierto, pero esperaba algo más y se quedó en eso que le sienta muy bien. Su jugabilidad es su punto fuerte como en todos los Halos y en este con el plus del Gancho que te deja hacer casi cualquier cosa para eliminar a tus enemigos o llegar a puntos bastante altos donde el Jefe Maestro no tiene manera de subir.

    Su ambientación y su música te pone los pelos de punta y te lanzas a pelear cuál Rambo en la selva jajaja.

    Su historia no es del todo increíble como puede ser Halo 3 y Reach, pero no es para nada mala.
    Escenarios cerrados muy repetitivos y lo mejor esas físicas locas que tienen los Halo.
    Si has jugado la saga, este hay que jugarlo si o si, pero hay mejores.

    A game without soul. Full of mechanics that are not completed and bad physics. The saga has come to an end. Not because the potential of it (Halo is awesome). It's more because Halo Infinite was made with only one intention: Create a Halo-vessel to turn the franchise into a game as service.

    The campaign is much better and more interesting than the HALO 5 campaign, unfortunately the MP content is missing a lot, even though the game came out more than half a year ago. Weak selection of weapons, lack of a CO-OP campaign... Certain parts of the campaign are extremely complicated, sometimes frustrating, primarily due to the poor design of the checkpoint system.

    Kampanja je poprilično bolja i interesantnija od HALO 5 kampanje, nažalost MP sadržaj nedostaje u velikoj meri, iako je igra izašla pre više od pola godine. Slab izbor oružija, nedostatak CO-OP kampanje... Pojedine deonice u kampanji su izuzetno komplikovane, na momente i frustrirajuće, pre svega zbog lošeg dizajna checkpoint sistema.

    PROS:
    I just played the Campaign in June of 2022. I always play on Heroic mode and I LOVED IT. The campaign forced me to learn and use all the suit upgrades as it progressed. This game was actually a tad harder than other Halo games in a good way. The bosses felt real and satisfying to beat.
    CONS: I do miss co-op and hope they add it soon. Cortana's dialogue got stale in the middle

    I would have rated the game a 10 if the coop was released on day one and if the progression in the multi was good. Otherwise the multiplayer is the best I've ever played. The campain is a blast, my one complaint there is that the new "AI Cortana" is really annoying. I know that's on purpose to a point, but still. Otherwise the most fun I've had gaming in a long time.

Ajoutez à cela des boss, des "mini boss" (les cibles sensibles), un système d'upgrade simple mais efficace, une technique excellente (framerate limpide, champs de vision à perte de vue, textures nickels, effets de particules superbes, ...), une bande son de folie, et une très bonne durée de vie (si on ne fait pas le jeu en ligne droite biensûr).

    Le meilleur Halo de 343i c'est certain.
    Dans les points négatifs, je mettrais qu'ils auraient pu mettre des biomes diffférents, et aller beaucoup plus loin dans leurs idées (je pense notamment aux marines qu'on sauve au cours du jeu, ça aurait du avoir un impact sur la campagne en ajoutant une partie stratégie), varier beaucoup plus les missions annexes (on tombe vite dans le déjà vu).

    Maintenant à eux de confirmer l'essai en bonifiant l'aventure. Les bases sont posées pour un retour en force de Halo.

    Gráficos: Estão lindos, melhores do que a versão multiplayer, mas não ta no mesmo nível de forza horizon 5, afinal forza nesse quesito é insuperável no momento.

    Jogabilidade: Está perfeita, é a melhor de toda a saga, tem algumas coisas como o arpel e os barris de plasma pelo cenário que mudam muito a gameplay.

    Combate: É também um ponto forte do jogo, ele rivaliza com o halo 2 pelo titulo de melhor combate da série em minha opinião, ta muito fluido e divertido, a variedade de inimigos ta muito boa, a maneira como eles agem em combate, os brutes estão muito legais e tem diferentes tipos que atacam de diferentes formas. Os jackals são os mais dificeis, o escudo deles é muito difícil de quebrar com as armas humanas, precisa de arma de plasma ou elétrica pra quebrar mais fácil.

    Chefes: Isso é um show a parte, casou muito com esse jogo ele ter chefes e as lutas são muito maneiras, cada uma é diferente e tem algumas que são muito difíceis mesmo, os banidos são ótimos antagonistas para o jogo.

    Mundo aberto: É definitivamente lindo e deslumbrante, mas está vazio no nas primeiras horas de jogo, depois o jogo disponibiliza muitas outras atividades que despertam mais o interesse de explorar o mapa.

    Personagens: Estão muito legais o piloto e a The weapon são muito divertidos, o chief tem mais personalidade e é até sarcástico e meio resmungão kkk e os personagens vilões também são bem intimidadores e o jogo faz você ficar com raiva e ter gosto em enfrentar eles.

    Historia: Gostei bastante dos rumos que a historia tomou, mas não falarei demais aqui pra evitar spoilers.

    Conclusão: Pelo que vi até agora esse halo ta no meu top 3 da franquia, ele tem muitas influencias legais, pega o contexto do halo 1, evolui o combate do halo 3, pega muito da ambientação e um pouco da verticalidade de Doom e o mundo aberto se inspira em far cry, mas ele conseguiu dosar tudo isso muito bem, quando você ta jogando a sensação é de halo, a influencia mais forte pra mim foi do halo 3.
    Eu diria que até o momento superou minhas expectativas, sendo realmente um jogo infinitamente melhor que o halo 5 e principalmente que o 4 que pisava na bola em tudo menos nos gráficos.

    343I si piensa que sea así haciendo que en vez de que la historia transcurra en niveles, transcurra en un mundo amplio y semi-abierto, y aquí esta el primer problema... Halo Infinite tiene un mundo vacío, no lo digo porq no haya cosas que hacer en el mundo, donde tiene varias misiones secundarias, aunque sean repetitivas a largo plazo, pero el problema se indica cuando nos paseamos por el mundo a explorar, no hay vida, tal vez un par de enemigos y 3 ratas pero no es suficiente para un juego de esta escala. Halo Infinite fue criticado por sus gráficos razón por la cual se retraso un año, bien han mejorado los graficos a comparación de la demo de 2020? sí. Halo Infinite tiene buenos gráficos? No. Halo Infinite puede ser bonito en espacios cerrados, pero en el mundo abierto, cuando estamos en una cima de una montaña o montado en un waps, vemos que a lo lejos se ven arboles y lagos con unas texturas pesimas, sin contar de que hay un poping excesivo y algunos bugs visuales, haciendo que la experiencia sea afectada negativamente. Aunque no todo es malo en Halo Infinite, tiene una muy buena historia con nuevos personajes, con conflictos internos, y todo eso sabe hacer muy bien Halo Infinite hacer que los personajes sean creíbles y entrañables, y añadale las grabaciones donde nos cuentan relatos de los spartan o marines en el anillo o en la caída del Infinity, el punto de vista de los desterrados, como alaban tanto a atreux, archivos forreuner que añaden lore a la saga y también conserva ese misterio y misticismo durante toda la entrega, recordando a los primeros Halo. Porq este Halo recuerda mucho a los primeros, con escenarios semejantes, con el gameplay haciendo que sea un halo moderno y que se siente como halo, el online es similar al de Halo 3, y el online es muy bueno pero se sieente incompleto sin el modo forga, pero aún así me parece un online muy bueno aunq sea incompleto.

    The most boring open world i can think of. Everything is the same over and over. There's only one biome: forest. There’s nothing to explore other than worthless upgrades than you won’t need unless you play LASO or cosmetic skins for the multiplayer.

    The campaign is dull. I can’t even think of a memorable moment. How about you take all the lore in the franchise and put in the dumpster

    God forsake the gun play is fine and the worthless guns of the multiplayer are buffed as **** ( ravager, plasma rifle ). But the biggest mvp is the grappling hook. If it wasn’t for it, the game would be utter trash and a 0/10.

    Halo Infinite, la última entrega de la aclamada saga de videojuegos, ha generado grandes expectativas entre los fanáticos.

A través de una mirada crítica, descubriremos cómo Halo Infinite logra cautivar a los jugadores y, al mismo tiempo,Halo Infinite, la última entrega de la aclamada saga de videojuegos, ha generado grandes expectativas entre los fanáticos. En este ensayo, exploraremos en detalle los aspectos positivos y negativos del juego, desde su rendimiento técnico hasta la narrativa y la jugabilidad. A través de una mirada crítica, descubriremos cómo Halo Infinite logra cautivar a los jugadores y, al mismo tiempo, presenta desafíos y deficiencias que afectan su experiencia general.

    El apartado técnico de Halo Infinite presenta un rendimiento sólido, aunque no alcanza los anhelados 120 fotogramas por segundo de forma constante. Sin embargo, es importante destacar que la tasa de 60 fps se mantiene en la mayoría de las situaciones, lo que permite una jugabilidad fluida y satisfactoria.

    Uno de los aspectos más destacados de este juego es su historia. Desde el comienzo, la trama cautiva al jugador, generando intriga y dejándolo ávido de más. La introducción del personaje de Cortana añade una capa de emoción y familiaridad para los fanáticos de la saga. La narrativa logra transmitir el espíritu que todo seguidor de Halo busca, manteniendo un interés constante a medida que se desarrolla la trama.

    El apartado sonoro es otro punto fuerte de Halo Infinite. Los efectos de sonido, como los disparos, las pisadas y las explosiones, están cuidadosamente diseñados, brindando una experiencia auditiva inmersiva que complementa de manera efectiva la acción en pantalla.

    Sin embargo, no podemos obviar la presencia de ciertos bugs que afectan la experiencia de juego. Por ejemplo, el problema de las luces parpadeantes, que se presenta con mayor frecuencia en el modo cooperativo, interrumpe la inmersión y puede resultar molesto. Además, el bug en la misión "The Tower", que impide abrir una puerta y requiere reiniciar el juego, afecta negativamente el flujo de la narrativa y la progresión del jugador.

    En cuanto al diseño de niveles, los campamentos "FOB" se destacan por su ubicación estratégica, permitiendo un viaje rápido eficiente por el vasto mundo abierto del juego. Además, los tiempos de carga de pantalla son breves, lo cual es sumamente satisfactorio y evita interrupciones innecesarias en la experiencia de juego.

    Los vehículos, aunque un elemento esencial en el universo de Halo, se sienten desafortunadamente inútiles debido al terreno montañoso y poco amigable del juego. Esto provoca que se vuelquen con facilidad o se atoren en obstáculos, lo cual frustra al jugador y limita el disfrute de estas mecánicas clásicas.

    La implementación de habilidades en el juego es satisfactoria en general. Sin embargo, el proceso de cambio entre cada una puede resultar tedioso, especialmente cuando se utiliza el D-Pad como un laberinto de selección. Sería más conveniente y fluido tener la opción de mantener presionado RB y, luego, utilizar el D-Pad para seleccionar directamente la habilidad deseada.

    Además, se han identificado varios bugs que afectan la progresión del jugador, como el bug en la misión de destruir los antiaéreos, donde es necesario reiniciar el juego para completarla correctamente. Estos problemas interrumpen el flujo de la experiencia y generan frustración innecesaria.

    La música ambiental del juego merece un reconocimiento especial. La banda sonora logra capturar a la perfección la esencia y el ambiente del mundo de Halo, brindando una experiencia auditiva envolvente que añade profundidad emocional a la jugabilidad.

    El diseño del menú de habilidades y mejoras está bien implementado, proporcionando una presentación armoniosa y fácil de comprender. No resulta abrumador, pero tampoco se siente escaso, lo cual es un equilibrio importante en juegos de esta magnitud.

    En general, Halo Infinite ofrece una experiencia de juego satisfactoria, con una historia envolvente y un rendimiento técnico sólido. El modo campaña cumple con las expectativas de los fans de la saga, y el mundo abierto, a pesar de carecer de variedad de biomas, no desmerece la experiencia en general. Sin embargo, se siente repetitivo en su diseño, lo que afecta la sensación de exploración y diversidad.

    El modo multijugador, por otro lado, cumple con las expectativas de un juego de Halo, ofreciendo diferentes modos de juego y la posibilidad de jugar con amigos. Además, su rendimiento técnico es excelente.

    En conclusión, Halo Infinite logra cautivar a los jugadores con su narrativa envolvente y su apartado sonoro impecable. Aunque presenta ciertos desafíos técnicos y decisiones de diseño cuestionables, la experiencia general es satisfactoria para los seguidores de la saga. Halo Infinite nos sumerge una vez más en el universo de los anillos y nos brinda un emotivo cierre con el tema de Cortana, dejando a los verdaderos fanáticos de Halo satisfechos.

    Grafics are INSANE. Gameplay is epic and more fun to play then most AAA-Titles. Synchronisation is very good, even in german. The music is very good too.

    Already play through the campaign, I think this is the best Halo game that 343 had made.

    Co-op and mission select is missing is a little disappointed, but still can say this is so fun!

    If the open-world concept had been better utilized and if the writers had added more interesting characters to the story, Infinite could have easily been one of the best Halo games ever. The shootouts are highly entertaining and the open world brings new tactical possibilities. The multiplayer is just as good, being slightly faster than before. [Issue#317]

    Halo is back to its best with Halo Infinite, tight controls, and seriously thirst-quenching gunplay that feels so intuitively satisfying. Traversal has been improved hugely by the addition of the grappleshot, allowing Master Chief to zip around at speed, as well as adding a unique element for multiplayer matches. A particular dampener has to be directed at the online multiplayer, which is riddled with cheaters, but, if they were to be removed then the multiplayer offers a solid free-to-play experience that is fast and frantic. Halo Infinite, alongside a number of other Xbox first-party titles is a great addition to Xbox Game Pass, and it is certainly a marquee game that warrants a subscription to the service.

    There’s not much to do in the open world, but thankfully, it doesn’t play a big role either. Infinite mostly sticks to what makes Halo great: first-person action. Smart level design, great mobility mechanics like grappling hook, and good AI make for some really memorable moments. [Issue#258, p.42]
