Sprint has been a common frustration amongst fans and was probably the first addition to spell doom for purists. But these decisions have only worsened, adding things like clambering and ground po


When the gameplay for Halo Infinite was released in 2020, backlash from the fans was huge , to say the least (followed by an onslaught of memes ). As one of the biggest video gaming franchises in the world with a massive fanbase, there come certain expectations, and many initially felt the game wasn't meeting t

Some releases in the year ahead are already well known. With some titles confirmed for launch in 2020 following delays, gamers will finally be able to get their hands on titles they had been expecting to play in the years gone by. Included in these are some much-wanted sequels, extending stories and worlds that fans have wanted to revisit for what's felt like a


Without a doubt, 343 Industries has listened to the woes of its fans, and they plan to focus the story more on Master Chief. This is one of the reasons why Halo Infinite is shaping up to be the strongest entry in the series


Dreams looks set to provide a whole new level of creativity and crafting to users, far beyond what LittleBigPlanet has been able to provide. Early beta testing has shown such ingenuity as player-made FPS games and even a new X-Wing game . With the full game releasing on February 14, this will ideally lead to some incredible work to be shared across the PS4 user b


Remember when you could just put in the disc, and everything you paid for was actually there? For some reason, DLC has become a crutch instead of an expansion across a variety of franchises, and Halo definitely shouldn’t be one of them. Take the Monster Hunter: World expansion, Iceborne, for example; a year later, it continues the story instead of simply giving you a belated update with crucial content that should’ve been there from the st


Halo Infinite looks to buck this trend by returning to many things that nostalgic fans of Halo: Combat Evolved might remember. However, it's likely that 343 will also continue to reference the stories told outside the game, especially if Infinite hopes to fill a map the size of a Halo ring . To catch up on the best stories already told in the world of Halo novels, here are the best selections from across the long history of Master Chief fict


In a way, this format could also be the driving force that makes the next Halo the 343 game that captures the magic of the original trilogy. While Halo Infinite will definitely have a narrative that continues on from the mostly derided revelations of Halo 5: Guardians , Infinity Nikki Walkthrough its open-world structure opens the door for a lot of side stories covering other corners of Halo's extended universe . There is room for side stories featuring the cast of Halo 3: ODST , RTS title Halo Wars 2 , and the best of the novels.

Halo Reach introduced many civilian units and it would ordinarily be unfair to put most of them on this list for "worst" since they aren't intended to be combat-ready. But one of these is notoriously bad that it would be a disservice to Halo historians if it weren't included on this l


It doesn’t help that the REQ packs are randomized, so it essentially replaces a progression system with a terrible grind. At least Halo: Reach gave you a goal to pursue, stockpiling points for the item you wan


In the Halo Infinite "Discover Hope" trailer, there is at least one hidden code to be found. When Master Chief is waking up after being jumpstarted by an unnamed person, his UI reveals an unintelligible message that can be read when unscrambled. The secret message is found in the form of a QR code that shows a link and an audio message. This is not the first time a hidden message was found in a Halo trailer, which is why we're looking forward to the n


Nyland would sadly only return once more to the series following his initial two works, but Ghosts of Onyx is quite the sendoff. While his first two novels focused on Master Chief's birth as a Spartan and his trip home following the events of Combat Evolved , Ghosts of Onyx shifts away from John-117 and focuses on the Spartan-III program. When John's wave of Spartan soldiers was mostly declared missing in action, the UNSC replaced them with a new program that recruited minors orphaned by the ongoing war. Onyx covers the beginnings of that program and the discovery of a Forerunner artifact that would narratively help bridge the gap between Bungie's work on Halo __ and the story 343 Industries wanted to tell. All three books feature throughlines and story beats that serve as the backbone for every future story told in Halo 's unive
