Visually speaking

To recap

Infinite feels like proper old school Halo - but with a number of interesting additions that greatly improve the experience still. An open-world setting and new abilities for Master Chief open the game up for more variation and exploration. However, its main core is simple, unashamed, fun-filled combat, which makes this an essential title for all Xbox owners. Even a reason to become one.
