    Had far too much fun with this game, sacrificing college for it. My dying education aside this game is honestly worth the time. Well done 343 for finally delivering.

    The poor indie publisher microsoft does not have the money to fully localize the game into Russian, it would be better to spend money on full localization instead of advertising in Moscow.

    If 343 even cared about a story line, they wouldn’t keep pushing out these half baked ideas that do nothing to further the story, but only bring back older characters just for some fan service. Sure, the multiplayer is fun.

The open world itself is hideous, the same copy pasted tree fills the landscape and the entire of the game is the same green biome (compare this open world map to Death Stranding or AC Valhalla, or FC6 and the difference is shocking) and this apparently had a 500 million budget. The multiplayer is a shameless MTX filled cash grab with skins for 2000 vbucks (back in my day you had to complete easter eggs in the campaign for Hayabusa...) and no levelling system, as a big multiplayer fan this is bizarre and feels like the game doesn't track or care how many hours i put in, unlike Overwatch or Fortnite etc, which track account levels and hours. The story is Chief (goodie) vs a mean brute (baddie), the map is ugly and uninspired, the singleplayer is short and boring, multiplayer repetitive and unrewarding. The main reason i even bothered to write this review is because i simply don't understand why its being so overrated. Gaming credibility truly is dead.… Expand

    5 years in the making for something, just ti be released on a next-generation platform, and all we got is a poor remastered game, some texture are great, but it seem that is just that textures only improvements, no able to replay missions... and it's Goss and goes, halo shouldn't had a "remaster" I would have chose to make a new hale from scratch for new gen platforms.

    This is not a 2021 game. Not even a 2018 game. The open world is small and empty. Everything is slow and come on... The hook is not an innovation. Stop being fooled by some minor improvements. Xbox serie X deserve so much better. I'm playing on pc game pass, but be honest what will be your grade if you paid it 69 dolars?

I was extremely upset that the devs didn’t iron out this gameplay issue in the **** tutorial level. WORST experience I’ve had in a video game in decades.

    I have played every halo with my now adult son. So finding out there was no campaign co-op was a big letdown. I tried to get into it but without co op it just isn’t that fun. Gaming has advanced since the first halo launched and this game seems stuck in the past. Too bad there wasn’t co-op.

Halo Infinite es unos de esos juegos que por mucho que le quieras cambiar la mecánica la historia y el lore es el mismo, es como ver la pelicula de los vengadores, sabemos que le va ocurrir algo malo a la tierra y que llamaran.
    al vengador mas fuerte de la tierra. Pues Halo es lo mismo, cuando quieren conquistar unos aliens la tierra o lo que queda de ella, recurren al jefe maestro sacándolo de la lata de conserva, le dan un arma y nuevas ordenes y a correr como loco por el campo.
    es como Rambo con armadura verde, solo que no se puede desmelenar con el casco. el argumento de la historia siempre es el mismo, tienes que eliminar el enemigo para servir y salvar el país, en este caso es el planeta porque un puto boina verde.

    Infinite monetization. Have fun spending more than the cost of a game to unlock a fraction of what would have come for free in previous Halo entries. They even launched without co-op so they could cram microtransactions in. What a disservice to Microsoft's flagship game and the Halo fanbase, not to mention anyone that just wants to play a complete game without ponying up over $1000.

    I have no idea who gave this game 10/10 scores or even 9/10 scores, Because this game is just touching a 5/10 in any objective opinion. The graphic's are not a 10/10 i've seen better from other games, Even games i don't like, The charactor's are not very great in design that hair and beard on Echo looked so bad, The face of "The Weapon" because i refuse to call her anything else other thanI have no idea who gave this game 10/10 scores or even 9/10 scores, Because this game is just touching a 5/10 in any objective opinion. The graphic's are not a 10/10 i've seen better from other games, Even games i don't like, The charactor's are not very great in design that hair and beard on Echo looked so bad, The face of "The Weapon" because i refuse to call her anything else other than the Failed replacement for a far superior character in every way, Her "outfit" was bland unimaginitive compared to ANY incarnation that came before. John 117 was fine to be honest the only thing i thought looked stupid was the grapple hook, An idiotic machanic added for... Because Spider-Man is popular ? I mean i legit only liked the look of the Blade Master who's name i don't remember like just about every character in this game. I can ask people who played Combat Evolved names of Characters, Or ships and they can give me then within the snap of my fingers and not just The first Halo but the other two as well. Even the 4th though most in that game are forgettable too as well as 5. So if graphicly the game is about average to slightly above average why is it getting a 10/10 ? I mean reviewers have pointed this out too it's not just me. The story is boring practically non exsisting and trying to re-write the story.. Again to make another big bad yea.. 10/10 ? Yea.. not so much. It's passible again a 5/10 average, Nothing spectacular happens in this story, The story is not interesting or tension filled. 343 did Halo 4 and although i did not find the game as bad as others i can say i freaken teared up at the end, At cut scenes throughout because the story was personal, It hit the feels if your invested in the characters and the story, If you understand the characters and story and it made the end feel almost bittersweet and even that story i'd say was an 8 out of 10 because it's not just about that story its to do with another big bad who hates earth bla bla bla. It's generic and i call it out for what it is despite my love for the majority of the game. None of that is here and it had elements in 5 but 5 again was about average just like this game, It dose nothing to earn a 10 in short any aspect you can point out you'll find it actually is not as good or as worthy to have that 10, I think the reason it got high scores is becase of the low standerds we have for games these days. I gave this a score of 1 and for simple reason, It never deserved anything more from me. The 5 out of 10 is for those not invested as much as i was, Ti those who are this story is frankly insulting. I wont go into details, But the main bad AI set up for this game is not here and has no satisfying resalution, A basic failure in story telling. Character's where just there the game did nothing to make me like them with one character on the bad side looking cool the Blade Master i cared for no one, Even the moments meant to be sad i was rolling my eyes wanting to skip, Combat was meh never felt like a Halo game to me felt like what someone who had never played Halo thought Halo might be like. If i want to play Spider-Man, CoD, BF and every other game this game was trying to be i'd just go play them, I PLAY HALO FOR HALO crazy right ? People are gripping onto Multiplayer like its the best thing ever, It's not there are older games who have done prety good multiplayer gays relax. All that said and a long list more it earns nothing but scorn from me, It made no attempt at telling a story in Halo that was satisfying and would hold or peek interests in playing the next game, Even 5 managed to do that feat and that feat only, That again only goes to show how bad this game is. Who are the bad guys that are coming ? Do you even care ? I don't my investment was with the rogue AI who was a friend part of the heart of Halo and what they did with that gets it a 0 in its own right. This games sucks when compared to ever other Halo FACT. {0,0}… Expand

Go play Assassins greed a open world game than play this garbage of a open world take. 343 industries still trying to copy bungie developers who actually know how to execute an idea. Also lastly how you gonna blow up the infinity ship and not make that part of the main story just little audio files of what apparently was an entire epic battle like wtf the story should of been more than waking up on a halo ring after the cliffhanger of the previous halo    … Expand

    Halo Infinite had the opportunity to cement itself as the dominate multiplayer fps as Halo 3 once did but unfortunately it feels like an unfinished product due to some key missing features and a few mindbogglingly bad design decisions.

    First the stuff that has been removed which was standard in previous games
    -No campaign co op
    -Cant replay missions in campaign without starting new game
    -No split screen multiplayer
    -No dual wielding weapons
    -No forge
    -No slayer or team slayer playlists
    -No swat or infection playlists
    -No griffball
    -Armor customization now costs money
    -No stat tracking
    -No input based matchmaking so you're forced to fight PC sweats
    -Battlepass. I could write pages on how stuff like this is cancer to the gaming industry but I think the prices for armor colors speak for themselves.
    -No spartan laser(seriously what the hell)

    The campaign could have been good if you didn't just go through either bland grey hallways or the same green forest environment the entire game. The story presentation in general was pretty bad, most of the important info is given through audio logs in typical boring open world fashion. Speaking of open world most of the campaign is like a bad far cry game where(you guessed it) you take over bases by killing the same enemies ad nauseum. I give one point for the grapple because its a fun mechanic.

    The multiplayer sucks in all kinds of ways the most obvious of which being the battle pass which is the worst thing to happen to halo but I digress. The Big team battle maps are awful because they don't have any open space to improvise with vehicles, everything must be driven on the predetermined paths which makes everything feel formulaic. Even worse is the game has random vehicle spawns so your team can get screwed by RNG that will sometimes give the losing team game winning vehicles like tanks, its honestly a joke.

    Overall Infinite is an obviously incomplete game that was sold way before it was ready in order to get the jump on battlefield and cod. To me this is the worst Halo game, not just because of the predatory monetization but because its so bland in everything it attempts without any of the polish of the previous halo games. I honestly cannot comprehend why Microsoft continues to let 343 run this series into the ground.    … Expand

Then they just start over and move onto a new enemy. I really think 343 just keeps jumping enemies because they cannot craft them well, so they jump around thinking that'll fix the issue. Just, so disappointing as someone who has been playing since the first halo game. This might be more for newcomers, which I get and welcome, but for long time fans, I don't see how you could be anything but disappointed in the story as it currently stands.… Expand

    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]
