"Whatever you think of the games themselves there can be few video game franchises as important as Halo. Without the original game the Xbox would’ve been a flop and Microsoft may well have never even bothered with the Xbox 360. And while you could argue that GoldenEye 007 had already popularised first person shooters on consoles it was Halo 2 that made online deathmatch the defining video game experience of the modern era."
The newest From Software game is just around the corner. These are five excellent games to play while waiting for Armored Core 6.
With the release date being just a little over a week away, it may not be a good idea to burn yourself out on mech games until then.
Surprised that the article didn’t mention Mechwarrior 5: Mercenaries if we’re talking about mech-related games.
These are some of the best and most popular video game franchises now owned by Xbox Game Studios and Microsoft.
Microsoft was involved with Halo, Gears, Forza, Ori, Flight Simulator and Fable from early development, I will give them credit for those franchises. Fallout, Elder Scrolls and Doom were established franchise before being acquired by MS.
Ah yes, feels like forever ago since Microsoft created Skyrim. So much so, I had actually forgotten they had created it and the other Elder Scrolls games! 🤔
*They really shaped my preteen years w the original Doom too!
I fully expect all these popular franchises to be killed off by Microsoft. Just a matter of time.
Unless they take a huge distance approach which pretty much means they don't ba e anything to do with the games being made ...in that case the franchises should be fine. But then...they shouldn't really get credit.
Soon Microsoft will be known for making Crash Bandicoot, Spyro, Candy Crush, Call of Duty etc. Lmao they know what they're doing. Especially with the archiving issue the gaming industry has.
You mean any studio Microsoft could acquire to flog last gen games on game pass ... What happened to HD-DVD that Microsoft pushed so hard ...
Non-playable characters in certain games are meme material, thanks to their foolish behavior. These are the big-budget games with the dumbest NPCs.
Bethesda makes the most consistently stupid NPCs, like really bad... yet I still can't help but love playing their games. Guilty pleasure, I guess. *sigh* 😩
Every Bethesda game and Every Halo game. This list needed to have Cyberpunk somewhere.
I really don't get some of these reviews. Are these even by people who understand Halo?
"it’s a bit of a shock to find out that you can’t actually run in any of the games except Halo 4."
I mean come on. What on Earth were you expecting here?
"There’s always been a lot of repetition within the Halo games and this collection only helps to highlight that fact. Multiplayer inevitably feels old-fashioned and slow."
Fair enough this is this chap's opinion but I could pick so many holes with this review. Halo fans will look at reviews like this and realise that the chap simply doesn't get it. Ah well. Each to their own.
I'm really starting to get pissed off...these reviews aren't reviewing this collection fairly...it's ridiculous and why wasn't TLOU reviewed so harshly....it's sitting at a 95 on metacritic for the exact same game that came out a year prior
TLOU ps3 metacritic 95-2013
TLOU ps4 metacritic 95-2014
Halo 2 Xbox metacritic 95-2004
Halo MCC Xbox one 87- 2014
That just blows my mind and pisses me offf
Guys, an 8/10 isn't bad.
Give a game an 8/10 before MP even works lol
