The Master Chef Collection

Halo the Master Chief Collection, recently published by Microsoft Studios and developed by all assisting companies is previous titles including Bungie, 343 Industries, Saber Interactive, Ruffian Games, United Front Games and Certain Affinity. The title is a collection of games from the Halo series exclusive to the Xbox One. Containing arguably the most influential first person shooter ever created, this collection of remastered games promised many things, and for the most part, it delivered, with an excellent 60 FPS at 1080p quality.

As for game-play, it keeps up the unprecedented reputation of Combat Evolved and 2 as well as adding a few minor bug fixes. The games feel newer, fresher and all in one place, an awesome package for all of those Halo fans who want to relive their favorite scenes and missions in high quality.

Now to the downside of The Master Chief Collection, the multiplayer. Not much of it is really Bungie's fault but more the technical difficulty of moving all of the Halo games made on unique engines all on to one individual system. To be fair it is possible and the developers are working hard as we speak to get everything right but in my opinion Bungie's attempt to release the collection as early as possible for the fans might of been a slight error. I mean we've waited four years for them to release the next big thing why not a few months more.

As a final conclusion mashed into one comment, great games, fun idea, good business plan, nice quality update and slowly progressing multiplayer.

W for Wait for fixes.


9/10
