Customers recognize the Halo 5: Guardians Limited Collector's Edition's high-quality statue and enjoyable game as major highlights, with praise for the game's story and the detail in both the statue and game packaging. However, the high price point is a significant drawback, along with the inclusion of a download code instead of a physical game disc. Some also expressed disappointment over the lack of split-screen functionality and mixed feelings regarding the campaign. The overall reception is positive but tempered by concerns about value and features.

I was very impressed with the size of the box when I saw it in person, it is presented very nicely. However I was disappointed that the box did NOT include a disc but rather a code for download. The other extras are very nice however. The product would be 5 stars if it did include a physical disc rather than just a download code.

Although I'm sure the game is going to be a lot of fun...the collectors edition seems really overpriced for what you get. You get a plastic statue, some content to read on cards, a thin metal sculpture to build and a digital download voucher. That's right, the limited collectors edition doesn't even come with a physical disk! I had to contact Microsoft services and get them to send me a physical disk, which is no big deal and didn't take long or cost anything extra...but when you're paying this price for a big collectors edition you would think it would come with an actual game disk.
To put it in perspective, the big Titanfall collectors edition came with an even larger statue that actually lights up and has much better detail, a hard cover art book, a large poster and an actual game disk. All for the same price as this Halo 5 collectors edition.

I was looking forward to this a lot, and the figures of Master Chief and Locke did not disappoint. They were both very detailed and large. The guardian figure is one of those things you have to put together (I haven't done that yet).
The game is also fun, but all I've played is multiplayer so far.

The statue has a great build quality, as it should for the premium price! The game is much faster pace than the rest of the series. Story is not bad, Multiplayer is extremely enjoyable. I would recommend the game, however only buy this edition if you don't mind spending a good chunk on a statue.

This review isn't for the game- which I'll quickly just say I didn't care for the campaign as it didn't have enough master chief and for next generation, I thought battles were not as big and lack of vehicles/open world. This rating is for what you get with this collectors edition. Getting this item on sale, I made out like a bandit. The statues are large and detailed, I like how they can be separate or linked to allow for best placement. The silver guardian is a nice work desk decor. The extra req gear for.multiplayer is a bonus. Really, the show pieces are the statues, you should really watch online videos to see what I mean.

Beautiful collectors edition filled with tons of awesome goodies. Great sequel with highly addictive multiplayer. My only complaints are that we have to wait for forge and there's a lack of playlists/game modes and lack of maps and remade classic maps. Hopefully DLC will solve that.

The game is digital not a bad thing I thought it was bad at first though. I'm lazy and it is good to not have to get up and put the game in. The game is excellent. The mp is fast paced but is currently lacking maps. But they are maps are added every month.

I like the LCE but definitely overpriced. Even with GCU, $200 is a hefty amount ($100 for the statue when compared to the other CE). Luckily I had some points and a gift card to make this worthwhile. Regardless, this is a must have for big Halo fans.

I would not recommend this for just everyone, but it is perfect for the Halo fan like me. I have bought every Collector's Edition of Halo since Halo 3. The statue is very well done and can be used as book ends for your Halo book collection.

The statue was incredibly detailed and weighed just right. The game came with all of the digital content, plus a lot of cool extra physical content that's not necessarily needed, but it was a great addition to it. Overall 100% satisfied.

this item was a gift for my best friend that i ultimately returned because I also got him the halo console which came with the game and the legendary pack. So we decided that even the collectible was cool it wasn't worth $250

The collectors edition is amazing. Price a lil high but I thinks it worth it for all the stuff you get. The statue of the master chief and lock is sweet. All the details the put into the characters make it stand out.

Game is better than halo 4 and much better than mcc. Story line a bit misleading you face off only once with the chief and then it's a different plot from what was advertised overall solid game fun with all Spartans
