I bought this because I love Halo and I really wanted to play the first few games but didn't want to pull out an old Xbox. I absolutely love this. I'm playing the first game and the new graphics are insane. But I also love how you can switch back to the original graphics.

Graphics are really good and it's Halo gameplay, what more could you ask for! It's a must own if you don't have an Xbox original or Xbox 360 ... It's nice having the classics as the game machines advance into the future! Classics live forever just like old movies that you love....

The CD didn't work

Once multiplayer is up and running without any sizeable hiccups, I easily foresee 'Halo: The Master Chief Collection' taking its place as one of the finest releases for the Xbox One to date. That said, it's a partially complete package sold to consumers at full price.

Broken games are the new norm, and Halo: The Master Chief Collection ($59.99) is the latest in a long line of AAA foul-ups. It should have been the system-selling savior that would raise Microsoft's Xbox One to the same height as Sony's PlayStation 4 .

Tons of classic content, almost all at 1080p/60 frames per second; Halo 2 has a shiny new coat; Sleek new cut scenes; Premixed playlists offer variety

Halo 2 Anniversary doesn't run at 1080p; Buggy despite patches; Matchmaking takes forever; Entire modes missing due to multiplayer woes; Incomplete and rushed; Massive patches; Lacks ODST and Reach

Halo master chief collection is an exquisite collection of the halo games. It contains Halo, Halo 2, Halo 3 and Halo 4, these are only the main games in the franchise and it does not include any spin off titles such as Halo Reach or Halo 3 ODST.

Multiplayer connection problems

The Halo franchise has been, for better or for worse, the chief icon for Xbox and for numerous gamers. Halo's multiplayer is undeniably the grandfather of online gaming for consoles, its main campaign has spurred an incredible extended universe in books, film, and comics, and it is single-handedly...

Halo 2 is absolutely stunning with its facelift; the co-op options for all four games are extremely welcome; and the ability to pick and choose missions at any time as well as the playlists are extremely fun little celebrations for hardcore Halo fans

Can't mince words with this one"the multiplayer is broken; even five weeks after launch; and even the single-player campaign has had its hiccups; some minor and some devastating

It's still Halo. Only with more bugs than you remember.

With the game in what appears to be a state of flux, this review will evolve along with it, updating as our experience progresses and when new content...

Archives franchise on current gen; Excellent anniversary remakes; Great value

Broken multiplayer

Halo: The Master Chief Collection is easily one of the best remastered collections to have been released - for the price of one game, Xbox One owners are able to replay some of the greatest first person shooters ever made.
