So I got out of the little funk I was in and stopped being a baby about the 450 cheevos. Tackling the achievements in MCC lately have been awesome so far and im only in Halo CE.


If you take it one game at a time within the collection you shouldn't feel so overwhelmed. I do warn you however, the LASO run, Speed running in under 3 hours and getting par score on some levels will be challenging. I'm trying my par score run at the moment and managed to miss it on the level halo (halo:CE) and only barely got it on truth and reconciliation.

So in mcc there's an achievement for doing the master chief saga playlist, which is 45 missions. But they don't let u change the difficulty and it's set to normal? Wtf! Won't let me play it legendary grrrrrrrr!



Halo MCC will sell 5+ million copies(including digital)

halo 5 will sell 10 million copies(including digital)

x1 will pass ps4 in USA, and UK.

Man, look at those legs on Halo:MCC, it's been a week since it released and it's ranked higher than both the PS4 and the Xbox One versions of Dragon Age Inquisition on Amazon, which just released today, as well as both the PS3 and PS4 versions of Little Big Planet 3 and the Xbox One version of Far Cry 4 (which also just released today), that's insane.


yeah, i imagine a good ton of new xbox one owners will pick up the halo mcc as well, along with converting halo players from x360.  

I just wish they could have managed that content update out tomorrow.

I just hope people realize the multiplayer will be better by the end of this week and not jump ship too early.  I imagine plenty of people are focusing on singleplayer now but none the less i hope people can wait it out on the multiplayer

does 343 have an in-game message that notifies players of the forthcoming mp patch? 

that'd be a good idea on their part if they haven't already.

Halo MCC is ranked higher than all released games on best buy's charts as well.
Surprisingly, the user ratings (~1000) on there add up to 4.5, which is quite surprising given the matchmaking mishaps.

Not sure if Best Buy has updated their charts recently or not but if they have that's amazing!

That's because all of the trolls who give bad user reviews for games usually target Amazon and Metacritic. The fact is that Amazon would probably have a 4/5 or higher for Halo:MCC despite the matchmaking issues if they actually went through and policed their user review section for troll reviews, but they don't, same goes for metacritic.

Bestbuy's charts are definitely updated from yesterday.  Yesterday had the aw x1 bundle out of stock and off the first page of the charts.  The current chart has it in stock and back on the front page again.  

 

But yeah, amazon does not delete troll reviews at all.  

Heck, they haven't even deleted some xbox one user reviews that go along the lines of: "buy a ps4, xbox one sucks."  Those report abuse options are for nothing, tbh.
