Note: I've not owned this for very long and have not experienced the multiplayer issues that many did earlier in this game's life. I can only say that I think these issues are gone and I haven't experienced them.
The sheer amount of content and options is staggering, and while the interface layout in the menus is organized, it's still easy to get lost in the minutiae, and some of the text can be small and hard to read.
For those who are considering picking this up to see what all the fuss has been about this franchise for the last 15 years, Halo chronicles the journey of the eponymous Master Chief, a highly trained and modified human super-soldier, who is awoken in interstellar travel to fight against the Covenant, an amalgam of hostile aliens who've been battling (and winning) humans for decades.
The gameplay was renowned for the introduction of regenerating health, by virtue of his personal shielding, limiting on-person arsenals (the chief can only carry two weapons and some grenades at a time, with some variation), vehicular combat, and still impressive required tactical approaches due to enemy squad compositions and the previously mentioned limited arsenal.
While the story can be obtuse at times and isn't always greatly fleshed out in game, the actors are spot on, and the overarching plot and its religious themes are interesting and thoughtful in ways few shooters, or other games, are.
Most will buy this for nostalgic reasons (like me) and will know precisely what you want to relive in the package. For me, replaying the original Halo CE with my son was the big draw, and the reworked assets from the engine, art, and sound all help to preserve the joy that I had first playing it almost 15 years ago, while the ability to change control schemes and all manner of other options help to draw in a younger crowd to what could feel and look very dated.
The sound deserves a special shout-out. Marty O'Donnel's soundtracks for the first three games are outstanding and varied and great lengths have been taken to improve the sound design from the older titles into punchier, more immersive versions of the already distinctive cacophony of Halo's futuristic battles.
The game to game changes have still been preserved, and you'll notice different feels to weapons, opponents, and movement. If you loved Halo 2's multiplayer, you can jump in to only that game's playlist. If you want smorgasbord of the series's offerings, there's a playlist for that as well, but the slight variations in feel can take some getting used to match-to-match.
Due to the amount of lovingly preserved and modernized content, this should be purchased by any shooter fan who owns an Xbox One, and not just Halo fans of old (or old Halo fans, like me).
The first 3 are about conquering the immediate threat of an enemy that wants nothing less than to destroy humanity, and everything that it stood for in order to achieve "salvation." Halo 4 then takes a turn towards the fight that we face within ourselves conquering our own demons, and remembering what it means to be human.
I imagine that one day this story will be looked at academically as one can find allegory and other valuable parallel's to the world we live in today. It is an incredible story for everyone. What could humanity be up to in the year 2554? This franchise seeks to explore that world.
For Multi-player experiences the Halo franchise was the pioneer in FPS games ushering in the industry to a whole new world of competitive play. You will not find the same numbers as when Halo 2 and Halo 3 first came out as those were the days when online competitive play meant something to a lot of people, but you can still experience an all in one experience with the classics. You will not be disappointed, and you will definitely learn and understand how terms like "nube-tube" and "tea-bag" came into the gaming lexicon.
Hands down, Money well spent.
I use this most for playing online with my family in different cities. We get to replay all the old maps plus the newer ones. Works seamlessly with Xbox Live. It can be a bit confusing when switching between one and two players for co-cop and keeping track of your progress, but that's nothing new with the Halo series.
Overall this has been one of my better purchases for my new Xbox One.
A very fun way to relive the world of Halo. The problem is that the main audience for this game is for hardcore halo fans and the people still playing matchmaking are very skilled even in social modes.
After playing Halo 5, it is very clear how broken these games were with online matchmaking and it can be very frustrating. The campaigns however are extremely fun to walk through again!
