Abstract: It's easy to draw parallels with the past when it comes to Halo. In spite of 343's intentions, it seems the sins of the franchise are doomed to be repeated. Halo 5: Guardians has emerged as the spiritual successor to Halo 2, and long-time fans will know t...
Abstract: I love Halo. You can read more about that in my review of Halo: The Master Chief Collection to find out my love for the series, perhaps my favourite, or a very close second to the Mass Effect franchise. These are the games that resonate with me; games tha...

Huge new multiplayer battles in Warzone, Smart new REQ system, Campaign mode encourages playing with friends
Utterly inconsequential story, Campaign is a slog when playing alone

Visually stunning, Warzone may yet prove its worth, Nathan Fillion from Firefly
Single player campaign dumber than a sack of grain, Repetition, repetition, repetition, Plot, script, universe
