  • I'm trying really hard to like it as it cost £50 and I've always been a halo fan since day one. But it really isn't great for a next gen only shooter. If it came out five years ago then yeah I would have probably fallen in love with it. But there is just no comparison to Destiny which is even available on last gen consoles. Aesthetics- Im sorry but the graphics in this game a poop. All I have played is the pvp so far, so if the campaign looks amazing then fair enough. But the pvp maps just look awful. The textures of walls are no better than halo 2. And it looks like they made the breakout maps just before lunch. I'm sure they were going for a sort of tron feel. But it just seems lazy to me. Mechanics- the actual movements of character feel quite clunky. That may be that I'm used to having double jumps and so on with Destiny. But I didn't really feel like I was a space age Spartan dashing and dodging about. Was more like a knackered old tank with a couple of "actions" thrown in. My other two disappointments were the radar. It just plain doesn't work half the time. They have lowered the radius I believe from previous games. But unless it's been lowered to arms reach there is something not working about it. Also the grenades aren't as great as I remember them. One of my favourite things about halo was always the br and grenade combo. I was like Pythagoras working out the angles for getting a grenade on some fool and then dropping them with a couple of br rounds. Trying that on this version will just get you dropped by some noob with an unstoppable magnum. I shall carry on trying halo 5, I may grow to love it and had just hyped it up too much in my head. I'm sure there will be some tweaking by 343 as well to improve the game. But my feeling so far is that Destiny definitely doesn't have anything to worry about
