You can't even order a regular Series X from the Xbox store right now much less a Halo Series X.Didn’t know where to put this really but you can order a halo series x off the Xbox store right now.

Some people see what they want to. Have you played the MP? If you like how that feels to play, which is imo incredibly fun, I would expect the SP will feel much the same. Just watching it would not be the same.The GMan review is the only one I've watched that actually describes what I'm seeing. Looks super basic and missions sound dull. Will find out soon thanks to GP Black Friday deal.
Heroic is how Halo is always meant to be played.Normal or Herioc is the question?
the game was balanced around normal this time around, but it still seems like heroic is the way to go based on how most reviewers played that modeHeroic is how Halo is always meant to be played.
Yeah I read about that so I guess I will go with Heroic and see how it goes.the game was balanced around normal this time around, but it still seems like heroic is the way to go based on how most reviewers played that mode
Joke's on you, VG247's rating system is 1-101lmaoooo
lmaoooo
Not sure if posted already. Gman is pretty lukewarm on Infinite.
Where did you get the idea that a top score means perfection?
Yep, guy who doesn't really like Halo doesn't like the new version. Not all that surprising
Yeah for sure. They pretty much stated it was a game that was constantly going to be added toI can see additional biomes being added as part of the live service.
It was up for a few mins.You can't even order a regular Series X from the Xbox store right now much less a Halo Series X.

Basic math.Where did you get the idea that a top score means perfection?
Agreed.Reviews are not equations
lmaoooo
We have seen this song and dance before….Eh. 343 Halos always review well. Halo 4 is at 87 and Halo 5 Guardians got 84 on metacritic.
Halo 5: Guardians
Peace has been devastated as colony worlds are unexpectedly attacked. What's more, when humanity's greatest hero goes missing, a new Spartan is assigned the task of hunting the Master Chief and solving a mystery that threatens the whole of the galaxy.www.metacritic.com

Neither game connected with me. Halo 4 was mediocre albeit competent. Halo 5 was just a slog. Locke was the original Abby. Just a bad campaign. Reminded me of those Ubisoft and Activision campaigns. Lets hope this is better.

We get close to a Big game release and reviewers/influencer hype the game up and give it high scores than the public actually gets the game and we hear a different story….
Neither way, I am a Halo fan and I planned to play this no matter what score it got.
Forza Horizon was always open world.Forza goes open world and ends up making the best games in the franchise.
Halo goes open world and ends up making the best game in the franchise.
I'm just saying.
its a joke...hence the lmaooo...its just funny.Where did you get the idea that a top score means perfection?
Dude...its a joke. It was on twitter and it was funny. You made some good points which I already agree with.A game with a perfect score doesn't mean it's without flaws or issues. If it got a perfect score it means the overall quality of the experience that you had with the game was just that damn good, easily eclipsing the minor things. Sometimes the things you love and consider perfect experiences aren't perfect in all things. There's always something you maybe wished it did different or better. That's how it is. Final Fantasy VII back in the PS1 days wasn't what I would label perfect, but it was an unbelievable experience for me, enough for me to look past any issue I had at the time. Lost Odyssey wasn't perfect, but that would have gotten a perfect score from me also, Blue Dragon would have been another perfect score for me. Quantum Break would have been a perfect score from me. South Park: The Stick of Truth would have also gotten a perfect score. Halo 4 would have also. Splinter Cell Conviction? Another perfect score from me. Loved that fucking game.
Every game that has gotten a perfect score anywhere has issues and flaws. None of them are truly ever 100% flawless if we're being totally honest, although there are games I feel that do achieve that. Did people love the weapon degrade system in Breath of the Wild? I sure as hell didn't, and yet it would get a perfect score from me. It just wasn't enough of a problem to degrade the game from a perfect score. Lots of people gave the last metal gear perfect scores. Was that perfect? I sure as hell think not.
A perfect score even when someone acknowledges issues is a sign that the game's strengths are just that fucking strong in the eyes of the reviewer. God of War 2018 isn't perfect, neither was Spider-man, Ghosts of Tsushima, but they all got perfect scores from someone. The best game out of those 3 by far is God of War. It's easily better than Ghosts of Tsushima and Spider-Man PS4. I think the one game among Sony's recent games that's actually on God of War 2018's level is The Last of Us 2, but some would disagree with that. Last of Us 2 and God of War 2018 would get perfect scores from me, the rest, including Horizon Zero Dawn, would not.
Jeff Gerstmann touched on this in his Halo review on Giant Bomb. It’s a good read.Here’s something interesting that I noticed and not sure what to think of it, a couple of reviews have pointed out during their review that they’re strictly talking about Halo Infinite’s campaign, essentially treating the campaign and multiplayer as two different games.
How does that affect the overall score of the game? I mean several reviews contributing to the meta are giving these scores solely on the campaign and not as an overall package. This is sort of a unique situation given that Halo’s multiplayer was always part of the Halo experience as a package.
Either way its kind of microsofts fault for splitting them into two and releasing them months apart.Here’s something interesting that I noticed and not sure what to think of it, a couple of reviews have pointed out during their review that they’re strictly talking about Halo Infinite’s campaign, essentially treating the campaign and multiplayer as two different games.

his complaints echo Skill Up too
basically the sandbox gameplay is old school fun, but everything else is really half baked and kind of a mess from what I gleaned from both reviews
strange how, with over 70 reviews, some of you seems to have magically zeroed in on the two most critical reviews. And one of them from a reviewer who already disliked Halo.
I don’t think a single post in this thread is strange, people are as transparent as ever, it’s all about having a platform preference and seeing what you want to see. Goes for positive and negative posts. I don’t think it’s anything strange about it, or even wrong, it’s human nature and it would be the same thing in a Playstation or Nintendo 1st party game thread where 10s are popping up.strange how, with over 70 reviews, some of you seems to have magically zeroed in on the two most critical reviews.

Yet he said he agreed with their 9/10 score for it and it's what he would've gave it. Game had a trash campaign and he basically said "eh, yeah a 9 sounds about right."Ryan from ign hated halo 5. He talks about it all the time.
It's only certain media mainly a lot of the US based ones. The game has around 40 8's or lower scores so while they say it's good, many reviewers don't think it's great.We have seen this song and dance before….

It's like me reviewing a Souls game. I try to like them but I just don't that much but I appreciate why some people do like them. I'd score them a 5/10 but would just be a waste of time me reviewing the games and of no use to the fans whatsoever.Yep, guy who doesn't really like Halo doesn't like the new version. Not all that surprising
Gman is a good YouTuber btw. He covers FPS almost exclusively and is always fair with his critiques. It's weird that people would get overly defensive about his review just because he isn't a Halo 'mega fan'.
I just want it to be better then reach and 4Wtf do people want this game or Xbox to fail? Lol what's wrong with you people?! 87 is a great score and I cannot wait to play this!
This year's GOTY contenders all scored in the 84 - 90 range, which makes Halo Infinite a (drum roll) a well reviewed game
But he does earn money with clicksThe Internet: Powered By Confirmation Bias
I mean anyone taking something seriously where the reviewer is so hell-bent on trashing something they claim it looks like a game from the 360 era isn't really in this to build an objective view of the game
The MP is better than 4, I'd like more content and modes before I'd say its better than Reach though. Campaign is pretty much taking the reviews on the chin (reviews are counting the Campaign as a separate entity) and its come out with a very impressive 87 making it one of the best games this year.I just want it to be better then reach and 4
If it achieves this i am happy.
The indoor footage i have seen so far looks rather stale. I hope the campaign starts ramp up like hivebusters dlc from gears (that dlc was fucking awesome)
They are upset Xbox has games again.Wtf do people want this game or Xbox to fail? Lol what's wrong with you people?! 87 is a great score and I cannot wait to play this!

As long as him and I don't bump elbows in the processstarting to think might open a window and see this weirdo jacking it outside…. My own crazy stalker…
yeah i never liked the MP from 4 was more talking about campaign modes. If it's better then reach i would be very happy!The MP is better than 4, I'd like more content and modes before I'd say its better than Reach though.
