an 87 as of right now.
Seriously?! You’re telling me this is the same quality of game as Halo 4? When many are calling this the best Halo multiplayer yet?
Barely scoring higher than MCC?!?
Reviewers are showing this game no love. One even said Destiny is a superior game… Is the games journalism industry going down the pooper or what?
(an 87 is an excellent score, but expectations were higher)
I know!!!
is it possible that halo 5 is just an ok game?
low scores are the result of an almost unanimous opinion from reviewers that the story is garbage
Really? 87? Wow, they have their own opinion but even so, that’s not as high as I expected. Also Destiny, is not superior to Halo.
9 days until I can buy the game myself unless I win in lottery the day after tomorrow.
Good or bad review those websites only want visitors to make money based on its controversial and dramatics reviews, IGN is one of my favorites controversial flame war website, people still getting in this trap.

It’s not unanimous, it’s about 50/50 that it’s either mediocre or superb.
But we can all agree that the bread & butter of this game is the multiplayer. And THAT is unanimously excellent.

we’ve known that since halo 1, yet the games always had a fun campaign to go along with it, if the H5 campaign isn’t great it will bring the reviewers score down…that’s just how it works
Personally I am of the opinion that 343 should split halo’s campaign and multiplayer into 2 completely separate games so they stop dragging each other down
Never trust reviews, the only way to tell if the game is good is to play the game yourself.

This is true. But there are many who look to them as to whether or not to buy it, whether we like it or not
Embargo just lifted, I want to see where it lands later today. It could get worst, but hopefully we’ll see it get better. I’m hoping for 90.
I think overall the game hit where its expectation were but that one outlyer who gave it a 70 is probably whats throwing the rating off. After all most of the reviews seem to have given a 90 or higher.
This game will feel like filler to the upcoming threat, a build up,a bridge. Something I was always scared of since they announced the 4 spartans at all times. I was expecting Chief to reach his epiphany alone, completely alone, talking to himself, or to his GEAS.
Metacritic sucks if they think destiny is superior, halo 5 would win in almost every odd
Why are people even using metacritic still??
Who cares? If you play the game, enjoy it, think it’s the best thing you’ve ever seen in your life, but the score is for example, 60, does that mean that the game is bad? It’s up to you to play the game and form your own opinion. 87 is not THAT bad of a score. Just play the game and have fun, who cares what critics think?

but it will lead to people listening to their reviewers, resulting in less people playing the game, do you want another evolve?
Halo is and always will be better than Destiny. Destiny’s story is one that you have to dig for i.e. read all the Grimore cards which you can’t even read in game, you have to go to the website/app.
Metacritic and Review Scores are garbage.

+1 the other main franchise I delve in is Forza Motorsport and on Gamespot Forza 6 with it’s much improved and extensive list of features, cars and tracks somehow got a worse review score than Forza 5 which barely had any features, cars and tracks.
