Its crazy man, near the end of the review I just found myself tearing up for no reason. Idk if its nostalgia or what but it struck a cord in me seeing a Halo be given so much praise after so long. It takes me back to the time of being an 8 year old kid without a care in the world and loving booting up Halo 3 and playing with my friends.
Mate you don’t even know I’m so happy that I’m able to play a mainline Hall and it’s a damn 9.25, 9.5, 9.0, 10/10 scores galore lol I’m tearing up myself
Campaign is repetitive and nothing like the epic glory of the older halos. Think of the old halos and how every environment was different, this game is one boring map with the no variation in any way. By the way, if you've been playing the multiplayer beta on steam they wont let you return campaign cause of the time you had with muiltiplayer beta...thats how they can get away with selling crap for full price. I do really like the gameplay mechanics and muiltiplayer is pretty fun, but again, the maps are already getting old. Campaign wise, I would play halo 2 again over buying infinite.
@@mohammadareeb7734 he absolutely enjoyed it. He just said his personal subjective feelings are his own and Halo doesn’t really appease to his likings.

Honestly when you claim a game is perfect it does seem like necessary info to say hey these guys pay us.
Finally. Been going through all the halo games in order. Halo 5 is the only one I missed ( Not on Pc) and it seems like a mess . This whole game looks like halo 1 to me and I am all for that.
I've been replaying Halo 5 and honestly it's not as bad as I remembered. Story is kind of a mess but gameplay was super fun to me for the majority of it.
You missed out cause the multiplayer for that game was good even if the story wasn’t. You won’t get a halo warzone mode in this new game and that mode was pretty unique.
uh... no. not really. Xbox isn't a huge console seller right now. not like it really matters who "wins" because console wars are stupid and if you participate in them so are you.
Yeah most of us Sony crowd are just as hyped for Halo. Don't let the loud fanboys make you think we all suck lmao. I'm out there shooting ppl with y'all in Halo MP and I'll be playing the story when it comes out on my PC
This game feels like halo 1 married Halo 2, took some dna from halo 3, and a bit of gritty halo 4 story impact and emotional content and mashed it all together in a very fresh yet classic halo experience. I like the open world. You really feel like the last hope of these marines and you’re leading the charge building a foothold on this ring, because they join you and seem to get their morale skyrocketed just by chief’s presence. Also the humor and the quips the aliens say when they starch you is back in stlye I love this experience. I hope they shape this early access game into a solid fully featured game sooner than later. Halo used to ship with all the bells and whistles. Coop, split screen, splitscreen online, halo was known for having the ability to play any way you wanted it. The most important thing is they nailed the feeling, gameplay, physics, and the atmosphere. Got a great foundation. Snd I think that’s what brings a tear to all of us old halo fans’ eyes.
I've had some good times in Infinite's multiplayer so far. It has a ton of potential. However, the extremely strict SBMM is really taking its toll now that the system has enough data to appropriately rank players. I keep matching against the same players over and over again. All my matches are filled with clans and TTVs and a lot of my friends don't want to play with me anymore since I "bring the sweats." I just want to shoot the shit with my boys and have a good time. I look forward to playing the campaign on gamepass this wednesday, but I think I'm done with the multiplayer until forge/custom games comes out.
@@javellinhoutdesc8075 You do realize this exact same issue is what's killing CoD, right? Strict SBMM annihilates playerbases. Most people would rather take the risk of getting stomped every once in a while if it meant the rest of the games were laid back and casual.

Quickplay should remain as a social experience where players are matched based on connection quality.
Well he didn't mention the lack of scenery change in this semi open-world like no snowy or beachy environment's or big waterfall with large lakes with wildlife roaming around everywhere. Unfortunately what you see from the very first start of the game in the open world is basically it. So there's not much point in exploration around this map to take in all the lush scenery because there isn't any its just pine trees large rocks and mountains with some foliage and grass popping in everywhere. It's just combat evolved from the first time you step out from the crash ship site environment's. Even that game had snow maps and beach scenery and that is what this game lacks it's more or less just a copy and paste approach from outside to inside environments. Now if the game had all of that in it then it would be fantastic this is what i was hopping for as i only been seeing the first 4 missions thinking wow this looks good cant wait to see what other scenery will look like i was so hype to getting this game but now i can't see the point as i have already seen most of the games environments from the demo.
@@bioshock6935 that’s a shame, while this game still looks good I still hope one day we can get something closer to that first engine reveal. It looked wide, open and natural. Here everything is surrounded mostly by rocky outcroppings.
@@SavageSenzu I have heard there will be a expansion pack being added maybe that will have the snowy and beachy with added waterfalls etc then i will buy the game giving it more depth to the environments. But the game does look very nice just a shame they didn't put more time to sort out the popping texture's issues sure this will be patched at a later time like next year
7 hour campaign and mtx riddled multiplayer lmao what a joke this game is! Remember how much this cost to make? I can't see where 80% of the cost went :/
Is this a joke? This game ruined everything. Me as a true Halo veteran can confirm this. This is a bold empty game with nothing special to it. No guardians, no Prometheans, no req system, no other spartans, no arbiter, no lock just nothing. Only a simple small 1 day finish open world that is not online and a simple multiplayer. What a waste all those years. If 343 is not doing something about this, this game will bleed to death very fast.
Open world shooters have existed for decades. No one has any business claiming this is 'refreshing'. 343 has only proven that they know what Ubisoft and Bethesda and Gearbox are doing. Some of the wonderful process enhancements Halo's progeny have added over the years are missing, which means the franchises which it is mostly responsible for launching are now better. Things like being able to hold more than two guns. Informative maps, including moving minimaps with a decent readable compass. Weapon customization. Route to objective. Varied environments... They're large omissions in 2021. Co-op on launch day is also missing for some reason. This is something Borderlands 3 and Far Cry 5 had.
My only worry is the rumor about a cliffhanger ending.. why cant 343 give us a proper ending for once?! 😡😩 I get that they wanna support this game for 10 years but couldn't they atleast give us a good conclusive ending!?😡😩
I’m really hoping we get a lot more content in terms of weapons, enemies, environments and multiplayer modes along with maps. I’m loving it so far but it just isn’t enough content. I mean no other environments on the ring? Come on. Surely we’ll get new maps to explore after coop. I feel like this could look to games like Destiny 2 or even, dare I say it, Halo 5’s war-zone firefight for future content inspiration.
There is someone called mockingbird killa in the comments who spoils the campaign story for people. Stay away from that comment if you don't wish to be spoiled. What a cretin.
Now the Xbox sales are great and a thought that Microsoft could have now is:"Hm, we shouldn't released a Xbox One Version". At least this is what Ms should think now in my opinion :)
343 needs to add a fart mechanic for 117 .. I mean does he never fart ? has he ever farted ? what does his fart sound and smell like ? we all want answers ! if there is no update for 117's farts in the future I will be super disappointed
But why do none of the Covenant vehicles and and the like look properly like Covenant vehicles and such anymore? The original Halo and most of the sequels established very clearly that the Covenant vehicles have a shiny/glossy finish to them, but here they're basically matt and end up just looking like variations on Earth vehicles as a result. They've lost their alien distinctiveness imo. Remember: th-cam.com/video/9i-4foLur0g/w-d-xo.html th-cam.com/video/4ycOwVPqbxA/w-d-xo.html 343 simply doesn't get it. And, yeah, the lack of variety in environment types is also very disappointing. A giant open map of the same stuff over and over visually isn't exactly exciting to me, especially given that open world games are almost never as polished or as honed gameplay and set-piece wise as games with proper levels are. Halo: CE on original Xbox has yet to be surpassed in that regard imo. It's details like that that 343 just keeps getting wrong for me.
Unlike the Netflix Cowboy Bebop adaptation, this is gonna be good. At least Yoko Kanno, the music composer, came back. Made a guitar cover video for the ending theme, The Real Folk Blues.
A 6min review combining both campaign & multiplayer??? No mention of the horrible progression, monetization, armor customization, color, lack of playlists. This was a horrible review & I've watched 5 different reviewers from IGN, Gamespot, G4 & the awesome 45min review by Digital Foundry so for anyone wanting an actual review of everything in the game go to DF.
Should I be worried with the lack of different biomes? I really enjoyed multiplayer, campaign looks good and fun too, love me these semi-open world stuff.
I was worried, but you shouldn't be. It is an excellent game and campaign. There are different locations that change up the campaign. Different biomes would be welcome going forward but don't let it put you off.
Glad it got such a good review but the point of "judging the game before you, not the features you wish might be there" feels like a bad stance. Halo Infinite should lose points for not releasing with staple additions of the franchise. No forge, no co-op campaign, crippled customization, no campaign mission select, limited weapon sandbox, glitchy theatre, etc. Games should be judged not only on what they have, but what is expected to have based on prior instalments, otherwise you're ignoring important pieces of the overall picture.
I agree. I want campaign mission select with environmental variation, not one giant repetitive map with nothing going on other than shooting bots. Halo campaigns always had exciting missions with colossal maps from different worlds. I think the multiplayer has potential to be great, but the campaign is done wrong in my opinion.
@@nicholasmartin9655 I finished it last night, loved a good portion of it and the open world works for me personally but I definitely need more variation. Mission and side-quest variation from an open world POV is great gameplay wise, although the environment is too visually repetitive. Honestly, though, they could have me doing exclusively fetch quests and I would be having a good time due to the gameplay being so great.
Decent review but how can you not give them a lower score for not having co-op? It’s been a mainstay in the previous games. You literally say you can only review what you have not what you wish you had, that’s a terrible way to review. Imagine going to a fast food place and always getting burger, fries and a drink at the same cost. Then you order one day and they took away your fries but keep the price. How is that still a good meal?????? I just don’t understand that mentality when it comes to reviewing games.
@@synical_gaming3863 no it shouldnt. Its taking % from other games that are actually fully out. A non-fully released game shouldnt even be considered for a award
@@Duppy0906 The MP is a stand alone game thats why it is F2P. Stop being mad over nothing that is going to change your life. Every game out now and HALO MP is its own game and out now should get a shot.
It's on a Metacritic score on 86 - that means the vast majority are saying it's 'very good' to 'great'. The 'more bad' you're hearing is just a vocal minority amplified by social media.
I can’t remember if it was a dev or a community member that tweeted not to expect a lot from halo infinite and it’s nothing mind blowing. And they were precisely right about that. I feel like everyone is overhyping infinite to be something far better than it really is. Nonetheless it’s still good and I’d recommend it but not if you haven’t played any of the original games first
Cortana is dead. She blew up the Brute Home world and pissed of Atriox, which is why he beat the ♥♥♥♥ out of chief and threw him into space. Because of this, Cortana redeems herself by destroying part of Zeta Halo so that Atriox can't fire the ring. The Weapon is a perfect copy of Cortana without the craziness. The Harbinger is a complete mystery. You kill her at the end, but no one really knows what the endless are. Probably locked up precursors. Zeta Halo also has some weird time dilation issues, and Atriox is still alive. There, all the main points of the campaign so that you don't have to spend any money on this game. Why spoil it? Scummy business practices deserves a scummy response.
Go to Elkhart's review if you want a realistic review. The "Open World" is very copy and paste, the the story is mediocre and not expansive at all. They definitely took the safe route. The game is repetitive and if you skip the open world sections, (which you can) its roughly 6 hours of gameplay. Definitely not going to be worth $60.
Only 1 biome in a open World Halo game. No playable elites No dual welding No female spartans No progression system No color customization No emblem customization No Falcon or Hornet No map voting No gamemode selection No forge No working theater No working custom games Trash UI Its T for teens No blood no gore No new vehicles No drones (bug enemy) No good maps No assassinations Missing gamemodes Its a live service game Trash vehicle physics Trash warthog sound No OG guns like the magnum, shotgun, plasma rifle, spiker, brute shot and spartan laser. I still got more to say on why Halo 6 is a bad Halo game.
I damn near shed a tear during this review. I’m so happy to see this game series return to glory.✊🏼

A 6min review combining both campaign & multiplayer??? No mention of the horrible progression, monetization, armor customization, color, lack of playlists. This was a horrible review & I've watched 5 different reviewers from IGN, Gamespot, G4 & the awesome 45min review by Digital Foundry so for anyone wanting an actual review of everything in the game go to DF.
Awesome
With those multiplayer colors, are you a Vikings fan? lol
would be hard to be one now after that lions loss
SKOL! Still-keep-on-losing! See u next year vikings after losing to the lions!
How the hell did this guy pronounce the word "vaguely"?
Lets GO!
343 finally made a good halo game 🙏🏽
Should I be worried with the lack of different biomes? I really enjoyed multiplayer, campaign looks good and fun too, love me these semi-open world stuff.
That's one bit I am disappointed too but the game looks really good and they plan on plenty dlcs anyway.
I was worried, but you shouldn't be. It is an excellent game and campaign. There are different locations that change up the campaign. Different biomes would be welcome going forward but don't let it put you off.
@@MassiveHappyClapper Oh no worries. I ran the campaign twice, first heroic and recently legendary =w=
You call yourself a games journalist yet you dump game changing spoiler 2 minutes into your video? Great job lowering the bar even further.
You, uh, "people" ever get tired of lying to people to scam them into buying terrible games?
Glad it got such a good review but the point of "judging the game before you, not the features you wish might be there" feels like a bad stance.
Halo Infinite should lose points for not releasing with staple additions of the franchise. No forge, no co-op campaign, crippled customization, no campaign mission select, limited weapon sandbox, glitchy theatre, etc. Games should be judged not only on what they have, but what is expected to have based on prior instalments, otherwise you're ignoring important pieces of the overall picture.
I agree. I want campaign mission select with environmental variation, not one giant repetitive map with nothing going on other than shooting bots. Halo campaigns always had exciting missions with colossal maps from different worlds. I think the multiplayer has potential to be great, but the campaign is done wrong in my opinion.
@@nicholasmartin9655 I finished it last night, loved a good portion of it and the open world works for me personally but I definitely need more variation. Mission and side-quest variation from an open world POV is great gameplay wise, although the environment is too visually repetitive.
Honestly, though, they could have me doing exclusively fetch quests and I would be having a good time due to the gameplay being so great.
8.0 Out Of 10
Decent review but how can you not give them a lower score for not having co-op? It’s been a mainstay in the previous games. You literally say you can only review what you have not what you wish you had, that’s a terrible way to review. Imagine going to a fast food place and always getting burger, fries and a drink at the same cost. Then you order one day and they took away your fries but keep the price. How is that still a good meal?????? I just don’t understand that mentality when it comes to reviewing games.
I'm 2 minutes in and this guy has dropped 2 spoilers. One of which is critical to the 343 games overall narrative.
Never played through a halo campaign but have always bought and played halo online. This time I’m actually pretty excited for the campaign.
9.5... damn!!!

I hate to be that guy, but can someone please teach this guy how to pronounce the word "vague".
The story was so good. Everything about this game was perfect! This was next gen stuff
this game on game pass? xbox step their game up! 🍻🍻
Yes, Halo infinite and all other available halo games are on gamepass.
Super top
a game not fully released shouldnt have been nominated to players choice award
The MP is what matters with Halo today and that has been out gor a few weeks now so yeah it should
@@synical_gaming3863 no it shouldnt. Its taking % from other games that are actually fully out. A non-fully released game shouldnt even be considered for a award
You mad 😂
@@Duppy0906 The MP is a stand alone game thats why it is F2P. Stop being mad over nothing that is going to change your life. Every game out now and HALO MP is its own game and out now should get a shot.
@@synical_gaming3863 why do i even bother knucleheads like you dont understand
Hello
Ok so I'm confused I have heard too many mixed messages about this game. More bad than good what is going on 🤔
It's on a Metacritic score on 86 - that means the vast majority are saying it's 'very good' to 'great'. The 'more bad' you're hearing is just a vocal minority amplified by social media.
microsoft money accept confirms...
How many spoilers?
You got a dislike from me. You're played it so you're spoiling it for others.
Damn
Gaylo, for Gaymers.
I can’t remember if it was a dev or a community member that tweeted not to expect a lot from halo infinite and it’s nothing mind blowing. And they were precisely right about that. I feel like everyone is overhyping infinite to be something far better than it really is. Nonetheless it’s still good and I’d recommend it but not if you haven’t played any of the original games first
4:12 doom eternal called
Well they did help make the game
yes because doom eternal is the first and only game in the history of the universe to have a grappling hook...
@@stinkyfartguyofficial yes
.multiplayer is crap takes a whole mag to drop one guy pure garbage
Its pretty much a soft reboot. But having said that its a fantastic game and a new start for the series.
🤯😭😀😀😀
Ending has already leaked online on youtube - reminds of me Halo 2 - DOH!
Yeah a mean, we all knew how this game was going to end when 343 said that this is a 10 year project...
Now give it back to bungie before it’s too late. The struggle this game went through was way to close for comfort.
Not possible bungie is making a new game alongside Destiny. They have their hands full
@@metallicafan416 I know that. Wishful thinking.
Cortana is dead. She blew up the Brute Home world and pissed of Atriox, which is why he beat the ♥♥♥♥ out of chief and threw him into space. Because of this, Cortana redeems herself by destroying part of Zeta Halo so that Atriox can't fire the ring. The Weapon is a perfect copy of Cortana without the craziness. The Harbinger is a complete mystery. You kill her at the end, but no one really knows what the endless are. Probably locked up precursors. Zeta Halo also has some weird time dilation issues, and Atriox is still alive.
There, all the main points of the campaign so that you don't have to spend any money on this game. Why spoil it? Scummy business practices deserves a scummy response.
I have completed the game, but to spoil the game potentially for others is just a nasty thing to do. Your comment should be removed by the channel.
I didn’t like the review
please give a spoiler warning IN the video
Go to Elkhart's review if you want a realistic review. The "Open World" is very copy and paste, the the story is mediocre and not expansive at all. They definitely took the safe route. The game is repetitive and if you skip the open world sections, (which you can) its roughly 6 hours of gameplay. Definitely not going to be worth $60.

I still got more to say on why Halo 6 is a bad Halo game.
Maybe don't buy it if you think its a bad game
by this logic halo CE must be really lousy, huh?
Half of this list isnt even valid complaints or just opinions
@@stinkyfartguyofficial Was about to write the same thing!
Honestly pretty whiny. This game aces where it counrs.
