More like "The GTA Online/Battlefield 4 effect"

Yeah, that's strange. But given that many sites wait for review because of multiplayer and many only reviewed sp modes so far, reviews are subject to change, it seems.



Seems like this is the review thread now then. Alright.

Looking very good thus far!



 

Here lies the dearly departed Nintendomination Thread.

First review will be here in under an hour guys. Here's hoping for a 90+ meta

Hoping?

90+ is a lock, it's just a question what the second digit will be.


I hope you're right. An 8X meta would suck..hope reviewers don't lower their scores because of Nightfall

Why you do care about meta ? You will get the same Halo games, remastered, that's all, What are you expecting ?  These are the same Halo games you already played.  Old games running at higher resolution. I would say 8/10.

Plus a code for Halo 5 beta, yes. But good you understood what a collection is for. What is interesting is how much reviewers are counting "content" and "value" in, not just fun. These aspects seem to be important in nowadays reviews.

 

Edit: There is also a lot of effort put into the mp part of the games.
