Halo 5: Guardians review
It’s nearly the end of 2015 and the next couple of months will see a slew of big gaming names fight it out for your precious time in front of the TV. Rise of the Tomb Raider and Fallout 4 are selling luxurious offline experiences, whilst Star Wars Battlefront and CoD BlOps 3 are look to fulfill their promises of exciting online fragging. Halo 5 struggles to justify its existence over any of the above. Its campaign is as floppy as a baguette in bathwater and it’s multiplayer foray is starting to show its age. Granted, it’s good looking and has a couple of new toys up its sleeve, but reminds me of James Cameron’s Avatar: full of sumptuous eye-candy that’s cursed with an unfortunate lack of brains.
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;
