Microsoft Halo: The Master Chief Collection, Xbox One

LOVE IT!!! Halo franchise as a whole has been the most magical gaming experience of any game I’ve ever played since Super Mario Bros. This Halo Collection was a brilliant call by Microsoft. And they continue to improve it and support all the games. They added Reach recently. The community custom games are hysterical. The retro Halo 1 multiplayer is so nostalgic and frustrating and fun! And when you’re totally sick of the lack of innovation in Call of Duty and you’re ticked off that Black OPS sold their soul to the point that it feels no different from Modern Warfare, and you’re saddened that Microsoft acquired Activision and the monopoly is ever present and has squashed innovation and unique game play…Screw it! Immerse yourself in any of Halo’s beautiful campaigns and smile away your night at the vast vistas and landscapes and feel great music. All jammed into this disc (plus a massive download).

This is a great collection. Growing up I always wanted to play Halo but didn't have an Xbox. This gave me the chance to play each game which was awesome. The games look great (3 was the worst looking on this collection; but not crazy bad). Story and games were great and no crashes or bugs. I never played online; I just wanted to play the main story and local play. The games look great and work! I highly recommend for anyone who wants to play Halo.

My husband always loves getting halo games. So keep them coming. 😁

Es un excelente juego, ya que es una recopilación de todos.

Playing all Halo games in order again was just awesome. Brought back some nice memories from the Childhood. Game arrived in good condition and the price was good too. After all these years it’s still great to play them again.

Works as advertised. Quality game!

Performance issues. Halo 4 crashes at certain points in the story, and they left out the good multi player maps of Halo 3. The remasters of 1 & 2 are pretty good though. It works, but not flawless by any-means.

It's fun, but hasn't really captivated my attention.

Finally, Amazon actually deliver games on release day rather than the usual day after release that I'm accustomed to. Aside from the fast delivery, this as all we know is the release of all the Halo's related to the MC (1, 2, 3, 4) and excludes all halo titles that don't have the MC as the main protagonist (Reach and Halo 3: ODST). The Menu is well done and allows to seamlessly jump to any Halo campaign missions from the four games. The multiplayer playlists are pretty straight forward if a bit jumbled, you get told which version of Halo game each playlist uses via the cover icons towards the side but if you want to play say Big team slayer, you can't specifically choose which Halo multiplayer version you want to use, its just simply all the four titles cobbled up together. Its something 343 should work on in my opinion. There's a Halo 5 beta section on the menu which is greyed out for now come this December when the beta releases. Halo 2 Anniversary is the biggest highlight to the the bundle. The in-game visuals have been revamped and look stunning, the in-game sound has been completely changed, guns feel like they have extra punch, the classic halo background symphony during missions are a lot clearer as you can clearly hear the difference by toggling between the anniversary and original. Blur did a really good job with the cut scenes, very breathtakingly realistic, I mean Tartarus looks AWESOME. There's a bit of an issue with Miranda Keyes' voice not 'matching' her face but that's due to Julie Benz's sub par voice acting (who could forget??), something blur could do nothing about. Halo Nightfall is a welcoming edition to the game. It comes in episodes with the first one being around 30 minutes long and the others yet to be released. Similar to the forward unto dawn web series that was released, without putting spoilers, it puts you into the perspective of Agent Locke that we'll all be playing as in Halo 5 and takes place around after the events of Halo 3. Cant really say more for this part without ruining the story for anyone that doesn't want to be spoiled. Downsides, well aside from the small quirk i mentioned for matchmaking, the initial installation of the game is a bit of a pain, just takes too long to install (took me a whole day to install). It seems the installation tries to download the update and install the game disc at the same time. Now I have fibre optic broadband running at roughly 70+ megabits per second so I'd like to think their servers are overloaded. It's not a big problem, you get to play the game when its at least 18% done, but the resulting installation causes the game to act up by constant freezes to the campaign. That being said, the freeze continues even after the update, something a future update could fix i guess. Going back to matchmaking, i can rarely find a game no matter what playlist i pick, waiting a good 10 to 15 minutes to find a few players is just too long, it's a problem 343 seems to be aware of at least. Aside from the few temporary problems arising as of now, the bundle is as good as it gets, Halo 2 Anniversary looks absolutely gorgeous, 3 and 4 run absolutely smooth, almost surreal how the extra frames and no jaggies make a difference to the game play experience. They honestly couldn't have done better with the bundle itself.

Llegó impecable, como nuevo 💯 mejor no lo podía pedir

Attente longue dommage. Jeu parfait sinon. . . . . . . . . . . . . . Ras

All good

Grundsätzlich muss ich sagen, dass das Spiel bzw. die Spiele für eingefleischte Halo Fans sicher kein fehlkauf ist. An der Überarbeitung der alten Titel merkt man, dass doch einige Zeit dafür investiert wurde. Insbesondere Halo 2 wurde sehr schön aufbereitet. Die Integrierung aller Titel in ein übergeordnetes Menü finde ich gut gelungen. Leider gibt es auch einen negativen Punkt, der hat aber prinzipiell nichts mit dem Spiel an sich zu tun, da es eine Variable ist, die man von Entwicklerseite nicht wirklich beeinflussen kann (deshalb trotzdem 5 Sterne). Ich finde es aber notwendig darauf hinzuweisen: Der Multiplayer ist ausgestorben. Teilweise muss man über 30 Minuten auf ein Match warten. Das fällt vorallem bei Playlists auf, die für die junge Generation nicht sehr attraktiv ist. Zum Beispiel H2 in der originalen Fassung. Für mich war es schon eine kleine Enttäuschung, aber damit war zu rechnen. Wer also das Spiel hauptsächlich für den online Multiplayer kauft, wird keine Freude damit haben. Klammert man diesen Punkt aus, kann man mit gutem Gewissen zugreifen.
