Halo looks great but I hope the story can be completed in a linear form.

IIRC I'm fairly sure they already confirmed you can just go straight to the story objectives and ignore everything else.

I think a big hurdle for the campaign is the price. Considering multiplayer is F2P you are paying $60 just for the campaign. I wonder if multiplayer and the campaign will be reviewed separately. I'm guessing not but would be interesting. I'm very interested in seeing reviews, though I'll play for myself on launch day so I won't bother reading if embargo is super late.

I think IGN is reviewing them separately but Idk about everyone else, I hope there's some consistency, either everyone reviews them separately or not, or at least if only a few review it separately they give it an overall score still cause it's going to make the prediction league more awkward, Lol.

Well, let's be honest here. Unless we have a guy like the Play Station dude on IGN with glasses (don't remember his name but you can tell who he is because he has a face you want to slap everytime he says "Beeyond...") giving 10/10 to a game just because it is on Play Station and hyped.

There is no way this is going to get 10, not even sure for a 9. Cause the Ryan dude, while being a nice guy, is always trying to be "nice" on all front and giving a 10/10 to Halo would be "not neutral". The MP will be done by that shooter lady (I really like her but don't remember her name, pink air) and so far she seems to really like the beta.

so yah, they said it in one podcast: 

Ryan will do the SP review
Pink hair lady will do the MP review (and she is playing mainly on PC)

Maybe it's just me... But I actually really liked the 2020 version of the MasterChief :)

If you are going on looks, the 2020 suit looks very clean but the 2021 suit gives you the impression that the MC has been in a lot of encounters.  2020 suit looks like he just woke up and they gave him a shinny suit.  2021 looks like he has seen a crap ton of battle and survived to tell the tell.  I like them both but each one gives a different impression of the game.

For me game wise, the worn and weathered look gives a better impact of MC journey but I want to see it in game on my TV to really get a good perspective.

MillieA a Sony leaker that has had a good track record so far has said that MS has secured a Big 3rd party game as a exclusive (timed/full?) Although both Jez and Grubb have stated that they have not heard anything.

If it turns out to be real then it could be Atomic Heart, I honestly kinda wish that it’s Crimson Desert I’m looking forward to that game.

Exactly my thinking. I'm now wondering why MS just doesn't sell the campaign with say 1 year of GP, just like Nintendo does with Tetris 99

Seeing the differences side by side like that in the video really shows off the amount of work that 343 put in.  The end result is going to be worth the wait, well done.

I don't think Atomic Heart or Crimson desert is big enough to be classified as a big exclusive by a leaker. I'm guessing it's either the Ninja Gaiden reboot that Team Ninja has been working on the past few years, or the new Splinter Cell that Ubisoft recently put into development. Both series have a history with Xbox exclusivity afterall. Bioshock also has a history with Xbox exclusivity, but rumor is Sony got timed on Bioshock 4. Then there is Mass Effect 4 in development right now as well, Xbox has an exclusivity history with Mass Effect as well.

Or it's nothing

Watch it be a formerly 3rd party title. New generation Minecraft for Xbox Series X/S and PC. PS5 will be able to play the PS4 version but not the new version.
