Jason says, "Was everything better in the old days? Nope. Is everything new terrible? Nope. Most moments the game manages to balance this out, but in other areas not so much. Primarily, it exceeds in the gameplay arena by keeping the controls feeling old, yet new and taut. It then faulters in (hopefully temporary) netcode issues, seriously missteps in the content arena for everyone NOT on Game Pass, and disappoints in graphics for current gen standards of Xbox’s biggest franchise. The good news is that it feels so good and smooth to play and gives me serious Metroid Prime levels of visual and lore satisfaction."
EDITOR'S NOTE: Hope you all got some good videogame presents for Christmas!
Details regarding the 10-year content plan for Xbox Game Studios and 343 Industries' Halo Infinite have allegedly been revealed.

"The story would have been expanded through yearly campaign DLC, so players would not have to wait for another mainline Halo title." ~ this seldom works
But I still think, they should've tried 1 last Halo sequel based on that slipspace engine, that they invested so much on but made for current gen only, before going all in on UE5.

The biggest voices of Xbox’s Halo franchise have been told nothing about the multiple new games in development.
Call me a cynic. But it seems that not even the people working in the studio know what’s the status of Halo.
They were going to add a BR mode, which then got cancelled, but now it’s a sequel to infinite, but may be a reboot of the first game?
It may be normal for development to be like this as super Mario galaxy started as cut content from Mario 128, which then became a tech demo, which became pikmin, which eventually became Mario galaxy.
But 343 or whatever they are called now-certainly don’t have a good track record so it makes me wonder what’s happening.
I'd be much more comfortable with the future of Halo if "343" or whatever they call themselves now were no longer in charge of the series.
Halo Infinite now has a functional bowling alley thanks to this amazing Forge map available for free on Xbox and PC.
WTF!!!? Can we add Tic-Tac-Toe, maybe Connect 4? How bout the card game Go Fish? Microsoft should shelve the Halo Franchise for 10 to 20yrs or sell it clearly they have no new ideas to take Halo forward and putting a "Hey gamer finish the game for us" mode and we can make more money off it and we can fire some more game Developers that we really don't even care about.......Microsoft is done even trying to make Halo a game worthy of even a little bit of our time.
It is excellent...disagrees in 3.2.1
That score is a bit high for a unfinished product
Game of the year, end of.
Well the whole description nails it on the head regarding the gunplay. But it's funny how it doesn't mention the campaign at all which is my issue with it.
