Thus far I've heard people nitpick Halo: MCC for the fact that the Xbox One's sticks are more sensitive than the 360's. I've heard people complain that Reach and ODST aren't in the collection. I've heard people complain that more Halo 2 maps weren't remade. I've heard people complain that Halo 3 didn't get a full remake. And I've heard people complain about the fact that Halo 2 Anniversary campaign is sub-1080p. I feel like certain reviewers will definitely find something to complain about, Quarter to Three for instance, they gave Halo 4 a 1/5 didn't they? Chances are Halo: MCC will at least be a 2/5 from them.


there is no reason why people should complain about the lack of reach/odst.  343 basically filled up the entire blu ray disc already with the first 4 halo games and there's even a patch.  

And quartertothree--- I despise that website.  I gave them one click for Halo 4- never again.  Not to mention that reviews was absolute bs.

Jokes will be jokes

Obviously the game will get some shit for something or other from certain places, but anyone with just half a rational mind can see that this package is insanely great

Lol....amazon reviews for SO...
3 1 star reviews- all by playstation fanboys- histories of rating all playstation products 5 stars and non-sony stuff 1 star. Ridiculous trolls/fanboys.

Reported all of them, so sad, lol.

I think I have my MCC meta prediction at 91... I'm keeping that one :)

I still think it will get influenced by some BS reviews to bring it down; will have some outliers.

Good to see MS supporting the 360 with new bundles.

Forge does look great seems like it could be a really powerful tool. I hope we'll see alot of community remakes of Halo 2 maps, and hopefully 343 will permanently add them to playlists. I am a bit concerned about size though, that item limit looked too small for Big Team map remakes like Waterworks, Containment, Headlong, and Terminal. Halo 2 Anniversary only has 1 big team map, I really think it needs more than 1. So I'm still hoping that they remake some of those as DLC, I'd pay $20 for a pack that contains those 4 Big Team maps personally.

 

Idk that island complex they showed off in the IGN vid was pretty damn big (I mean they had beaver creek just tucked away in there on one of the smaller islands), and that was only with like 550/650 on the object limit. Think you're underestimating it

yeah, I think some reviewers will be so stupid and give the MCC a lower score as they would give a Halo 2 anniversary edition. It's obviously much more content but they can't complain about Halo 3 not as full remake if there isn't a  halo 3 and stupid stuff like that...

People really have to review it as full package and nothing less and this package is just gorgeous compared to what we got in the past talking about re-releases of games. 

Final Fantasy X / X-2 HD has a Meta of 85, I think it would be pretty stupid to give the MCC less than a 90 but well...

I think a few maps could be also remade or release as "tweaked maps" in Halo 5 so that they won't like to remake everything in the MCC or Halo 5 would be less of a great surprise for some. But that is only a guess, maybe Halo 5 will only have new maps...

Japan setting would be the first and only AC I'd buy.
