I really don't get how a huge collection of 4 games all with a fresh coat of paint and new features, of which the lowest scoring game was an 87, only gets an 87. Especially with TLOU:R getting a 95 despite barely being any different than the original that released a year before it. I swear some of these reviewers are just way too biased against MS right now. This is the third great X1 game in a row that has been too harshly reviewed. You'd think critics would be grateful that X1 is actually delivering some great exclusives while PS4 has nothing to offer there.

I will try to explain what is holding the MCC collection and it is the same if you do a MGS collection today (ohhh it happened)... and why TLOUR received a better score.

First forget content... a 1 hour game will be reviewed in fair way and can have a better score than a 100 hours games... content is not what is reviewed but the experience delivered.

TLOUR is a game with great story and a gameplay that holds to today standards... you can see that if you play the Multiplayer where the gameplay shines with ones of the best in the last generation... it is year old game so it didn't felt old yet... the opposite the gameplay is flesh.

MCC with expected of one game (Halo 4) already have a dated gameplay holding it... you can't play the first and second Halo today thinking they will hold in terms of gameplay with the new ones... this is more evident when you have games like Titanfall and Destiny that elevates this aspect to a new level.

That is why most reviews are in 80-90 side than 90-100 side (what holds a meta score 90+).

Said that the game is receiving great critics... really a must to have game for Xbone's owners.


You are obsolutely right about the outdatedness of Halo before Halo 4.This is why Halo (like COD) is overrated.Neither will age well as they are just fad/twitch shooters that are only good for MP,but become obsolete when the next one releases.TLoU is one of the greatest games ever created like U2,GOW2,MGS3,Ocarina of Time and FF7.No Halo game is on that level.Splinter Cell and NG were better than Halo 1.Halo is the fast food of gaming lol.
