    Once again XBOX owns the Holiday season. Every Holiday season XBOX puts out the best games. I am enjoying the story mode and multiplayer is a blast.

    As a long Halo fan I loved the story loved multiplayer all around the whole game experience was amazing. Only downfall is the statue you have to build not looking forward to it.

    Brings back a lot of the fun of previous titles of Halo with some new twists. Could use a larger 6v6 format for the arena but its not terrible.

    I love the mechanics in this game, but I'm still getting used to them. The game looks amazing. Haven't played multiplayer enough to give a review on that part of the game.

    No online problems when connecting. Game is fast and smooth. One of the best halos ever made. New req system gives the game depth for gear.

    Besides many divided opinions. I find this game to be exactly what I expected. Cool multi-player and a fun story on single player. 5 stars.

    I'm waiting to see what all play list they add over time. I'm a fan of classic big team battle. Overall the game handles great. The Scatter shot gun is way to powerful.

    I struggled with some of the changes early on, and there's still some things I'm sure Microsoft will patch as time goes on, but I'm really starting to enjoy the game.

    overall the game is a lot of fun and great continuation of the franchise but sorely lacking in the continuing story of the masterchief we found at the end of halo 4.

    This game is not only fantastic but the packaging is superb. The steelbook is a nice touch with loads of extras and additional content.

    I appreciate what 343 tried to do, but even though you have "teammates" playing along in campaign feels like babysitting. Multiplayer is still pretty great though.

    I will say that I originally pre-ordered the $250 Collectors Edition, but then cancelled my pre-order when I saw what you get for that amount of $. And I am one who will get a good collectors edition, but thats a lot of money, for no physical disc, and basically a statue. I would much rather have night vision goggles, or a loot chest. So I settled on this edition, but I have to say that I was disappointed by the fact that I have to assemble the "statue", and might I add, there are a ton of pieces! Not cool. But I do love the steel book and am glad that I got it for the rest of the contents.

    The graphics are second to none of the games I have previously purchased. I recommended the game to a friend and he bought one too.
