Maybe some reviewers got mixed up and were playing Halo 2 without realising it despite being Halo veterans..no need to worry just yet

Impossibru, unless SJW has gone so deep in our lives, reviewers didn't notice Master Chief went black.

Well he doesn't really take his armour off much so maybe they thought he was black all along? :o

He isn't black :)

so ... what to expect? Halo going toward a 85 or, perhaps, it will rise to 87-88.

Pretty damn good, but it obvious that under 343, Halo will never surpass what Bungie was able to do with Halo 1/2/3.

Damn the XOne fans with the persistent downplay claims framing Sony fans & Halo 5 can't crack that 90 Metascore? Lmao even Forza had 88.

Damn, a post attacking dozens of users on this site and saying there is persistent downplay, without further evidence? This site, man, this site...

I never said it sucked. It also reinforces a historical trend where Halo is falling in Metascore with 343i (MCC, 4 & 5 all below 90's.)

2 games now creates historical trend? (MCC's bulk wasn't made by 343i).

I mean we're talking about 3-5 points here. Let's simmer down

I laugh at Xbone's failures to suceed in comparison to PS4 as well. It makes me feel better about my choice of loyalty to my brand. It's important to me, because it makes me happy. Isn't that what we try to achieve in life? True happiness? 😐
