Now. As a Playstation gamer. I've always looked at halo with curiosity. "It's just a damn shooter. How good could a shooter be?". I saw previews for Halo 5 and I thought "Hey, maybe this one will convince me to try it". Guess what? WRONG. I've looked at what the fans have said and have seen AngryJoe's review for it. Yes, I trust AngryJoe more than IGN and Metacritic. He's a player AND a reviewer and doesn't get paid to make good reviews for certain games unlike *cough cough* IGN *cough.
Let's look at the fails in the game:
-Amateurish campaign length (4 hours and 30 mins roughly)
-It's very easy with 3 other Spartans at your side
-the Spartans you play with are forgettable characters
-AngryJoe even said the graphics look beautiful but I always felt that Halo had shit graphics. Killzone looks better and was released in 2013
-You hardly ever play as Chief
-There are dumb missions that include just talking to NPC's
-The main character is Locke. Basically the whole story is Locke and his merry men who rob from the fans and give to Microsoft and 343.
-Halo 5 was advertised as a VS with Chief and Locke but that doesn't even happen!
-Terrible cliffhanger that doesn't earn it (don't know what happened but most of the time when people say that I find it to be true)
-Companion Spartan AI is dumb as shit
-You fight that warden boss guy like 7 times. SEVEN!!!!! I thought Destiny recycled bosses too much. We fought the gatelord and then 3 carbon copies of it. This Warden guy takes it to a WHOLE NEW LEVEL. 7 times!!! wtf??? Whoever did that should be fired and never be allowed to make games again
-and of course, the dreaded and most hated MICROTRANSACTIONS!
-not to mention I've also heard people complain about how bad the spawn camping is
The strange thing with the microtransactions though, is that halo fanboys are DEFENDING IT. DEFENDING IT!!!!!! Wtf kind of drugs are these children on?! We don't want MORE microtransactions in games than there already are! According to AngryJoe, my only source in this, he went to the halo forums and ANYONE who says they disagree with the microtransactions are bullied, attacked, crushed, shut out, and hidden away because they so much as say ANYTHING bad about halo. Is this what the Xbox fanbase is supposed to be consisted of? If it is then I'll stick to my Playstation Nation.
So dear 343. You baited me on this Halo and I came SO close to getting hooked. But you lost it
EDIT: Lol so many butthurt posts I can't keep track of them all!
EDIT: Also forgot to mention that you guys are literally praising a sequel that TOOK AWAY shit from the previous games, nerfed the campaign and added microtransactions. That's Microsoft for ya. I hope you all know that Microsoft bought Halo specifically to gold mine the money from all you drones. The worst part is that it worked better than imagined

6 RespuestasBut halo 5 shits on destiny.
-
Coming from someone who never played halo smh
-
I got bored of it......
-
I was all ready to buy an Xbox for halo 5. Cash set aside. Then I found out you mostly play as this Locke guy. No thanks. Call me when a real halo comes out.
-
You say it fails, yet your lack of upvotes say otherwise.
-
loool, you believe a guy who makes "controversial" reviews so he gets more views. What an idiot.

4 RespuestasThe micro transactions only effect war zone, and that's honestly a shitty game mode. As far as the regular pvp game modes go they're the best they've been in years. And you can't judge the campaign based on easy mode. Play that shit on legendary and get back at me. And the story of halo is amazing, halo 5 is just another piece of the story and you don't need an app to read what's going on after you play through the story, it's all there and it all makes sense. Oh and to the people saying it was falsely advertised, how? Locke was out to bring blue team in, and I won't spoil it for those that haven't played but I didn't feel led on or let down at all. Been playing these games for 14 years and I hope I can be playing them for 14 more, halo fanboy4life.

4 RespuestasYou understand people who buy gold packs or whatever with real money: -can only use those req packs in a Warzone game -use in one game only -have to get up to the required req level first by killing people/bosses/capturing bases However, I don't like that you get armor from req packs.
-
Hey buddy here's some advice 1 play the game 2 have your own opinion not someone else's 3 don't claim that anyone that defends a game is a fanboy, when you're a fanboy of killzone and The Last of Us
-
1 RespuestaHalo CE Halo 2 Halo 3 Halo Reach Possibly Halo ODST That's all you need
-
Also, this is all taken from angryjoe's video?!?
-
Never play the campaign on normal/easy (4 hours 30 minutes) always play on legendary :3
-
The games barely been out 2 weeks. Give it time Jesus Christ.
-
2 RespuestasWhat a second, just a few days ago Halo 5 killed destiny. WTF IS GOING ON? !?!
-
2 RespuestasWhat if... It is just bait
-
The campaign takes longer than 4 hours if you don't play it on easy.
-
Lol just stop you haven't even played the game and you just sound like an idiot who can't form his own opinion or think for themself
-
i still am a halo fanboy but i feel 343 -blam!-ed up halo 5 big time
-
2 RespuestasI have a query about the second edit. You say Microsoft bought Halo to gold mine. Do you mean since 343 worked on it or since the beginning because Halo 5 Is the only Halo I can think of that has micro transactions. Also ever halo except ODST and Reach have been released with a minimum of 2 years in between. If they really wanted to goldmine they would have fully annualized the game or made tons of DLC like CoD or Destiny.

Halo PVP is the best I've played on this generation of consoles. Dedicated servers are an excellent addition. And microtransactions? They are completely optional. Play the game, get more req points, unlock customization options. You can pay if you're desperate, but there's no need too. It has free DLC, because they didn't want to divide the player base between haves and have nots. Very smart move and more gaming companies should take notice. The campaign isn't great, but it's not terrible. Yes, the warden is extremely present, but at least his presence makes sense. The predictability of the story is the worst part. As for Master Chief not being the main protagonist, oh well. I'm not a great fan of Lockes, but Chiefs personality was entirely dependent on Cortina before. Things by necessity have to be different. And most people don't buy a halo game just for story, they buy it for the PVP.
-
So you haven't even played them? I personally think it's great. Halo 5 multiplayer shits all over any others right now.

9 RespuestasI'm a pretty big Halo fan and I was let down by it. You could almost say everything leading up to the game was false advertising. Chief and Locke have one slap fight and that's it. [spoiler]The game turned out to be all about Cortana and how she's trying to rules the Galaxy.[/spoiler] It's such a huge let down. And I don't even want to think about the multiplayer. Every other Halo has nearly 20 game types to play while 5 has around 6. The only thing I liked about it was the game play. It was fun to climb up on everything and the combat was cool.

3 RespuestasI don't like angry joes reviews because he will be intentionally angry about a game
