Forums - Microsoft Discussion - AngryJoe reviews Halo 5

Snoopy on 06 November 2015

He gave MGS5 a 9/10 yet the game had many flaws which he conveniently pointed out for Halo 5, but not MGS5 when regarding his score. Cliff hanger/Unanswered questions, sparse and sometimes mediocre story, sometimes bad AI, Microtransactions, no boss battle outside of a couple and no online at the start . Yes, the gameplay is fun, but the flaws were many to say the least. I do agree with Joe on certain things regarding Halo 5 (specifically single player), but it seems he was harsher on this game for the req system. Same thing with COD AW and Batman which he gave both games a 6/10 when those games have an 80+ on metacritic.

4 hours 30 mins.... campagne on normal mode.

Almost a hour of that is Cutscenes.


Really?  So Short?

I clocked in about 7 hours. Joe was playing campaign on normal with someone else to help him out which isn't really fair way to judge the game. If you had two legit people playing you can get the game done a lot faster. He should've finish the game by himself first.

Not my favorite Angry Joe Review. I feel he could've cut at least 10 minutes from the runtime. He spent too much time ranting, imo, and not enough time reviewing actual game.

At the end he mentions that there are games with free map packs and no microtransactions. Anyone know what he's talking about?

EDIT: Splatoon?


Not any of the popular games that for sure.

Lol "Other Joe" which is his name, barely knows how to play games, he sucks at them so he didn't help him at all. If anything he probably made his campaign length longer.

No, he made it faster. The other AI serves only has a distraction and to revive you pretty much. Having two people with powerful weapons to take out bosses is a lot easier with just one person with one powerful weapon. There is a lot of missions that can be completed faster with 2 people. For example, one of the last mission you have to take out 5 cores so if one person go to one core and while the other one goes to the other core no shit you will beat it faster. Obviously you haven't played the game.
