Game has solid 85 metascore, but that still is lowest scoring Halo to date...
@Death
My PS3 and X360 both shows 1080P image on my TV. Tvs have upscalers...
Jesus that was pretty sad damage control
@mark_parch
Lower your PC resolution to 900P.
You will notice it. GUARANTEED.
I understand the argument that resolution is not everything, but you are just desperate to argue that you cant tell the difference.
Ofc, MS will say it... It is just PR.
Metascore says something other than that for Halo however...Reality is not same as PR.
we just had lowest metascoring Halo... ever. it still is a solid game.
but i am not sure you want to play that res dont matter cause "quality" argument.
Game is pretty good on its own, but it also is the lowest scoring Halo to date.
MS dont have top studio who can put out meta 90s anymore sadly.
That mistake is not surprising at Gamingbolt. I doubt anyone double check their stories.
Either way, there was huge cost to this 60fps. It was so much more than just resolution. See the DF video below.

@Lordjax What does this have to do with failing 50% more power?
Lol. one sentence. 99% games on PS4 are 1080P, but only about 33% are 1080P on Xbox One.
Also, even Ubisoft did their own test with this result.

Huh? They didnt hold this news back for PS experience event?
It is good news, but I think Sony can work on delivery more.

-Poor pop ins.
-Sub HD.
85 is a pretty solid score and congrats to 343 for trying to fill in a big shoe.
However, this leaves MS exclusive studio line up pretty weak.
MS has at this point don't really have top dev anymore( who consistently make 90s meta).
They still have some quality studios, but not real big hitters. Right now they are temporary filling their line up with 3rd party studios, but that is not long term. Remember what happened last gen when MS stop...
343 is a solid developer. Only reason for some negatives is because they have a huge benchmark or legacy to live up to.
Any game score 85 on meta will be praised, but because it also is lowest scoring main Halo game so far,there are some whining.
85 is a pretty solid game and good enough to enjoy. People need to know that Bungie Halo and 343 Halo are different. 343 is not bungie(it took only few dev from bungie to make 343).
At the same time,...
I like the Bungie Halo. 343 is doing a good job trying to fill a very big shoe left behind, but isnt quite matching Bungie.
All Bungie Halos are low to mid 90s on meta. So far 343 Halo 4 and 5 in their 80s. Halo 5 at 85 and score has been dropping.
Still, great great game. Just not quite the legendary as Bungie ones. Despite the contrary view only few devs moved from Bungie to 343. 343 is completely a new studio.
Wow some X1 fans here are really losing it...
Its just a game... Just go play and enjoy it.
@suckingeggs
Dude. you havent even played the game yet...There always be ranges of scores out there. This just happens to be one.
There are just fanboys who thinks their exclusive will be 10/10 because its exclusive... Play the game before you comment what the score should be. It is so ridiculous how desperate some fans are.
@Paytaa
There will always be ranges. But looking at metascore, it seems like overall score is conver...
at above.
Exactly. Also, Crackdown 3 demo looks neat, but we still dont know much details about it... I mean it seems like it is taking a huge hit on hardware and resulting in weaker graphics.
This gen we have been chasing on secret sauce after another until nothing comes to fruition.
Just enjoy the great games coming out. instead of waiting secret sauce to shine...
@D_g
No assumption. you said "cloud and gaming" and i am also basing it off your response to NewMonday.
Except the the article focuses more on sharing software across multiple devices and blurring PC and Xbox.
Nothing much about "cloud and gaming" like you are saying.
I am not making any conclusions, but you need to stop bending stories into what you want to hear.
How many times do we need...
@D_G and moldybread and others...
It seems like you guys are making assumptions to fit what you want to hear and actually reject the article itself...
-"transitioning into a company that doesn't care what device you use,"
-"Want to use Office on an Android tablet? Fine. Want to run Skype on a Mac? Cool."
-"Crossover appeal"
-"making it easier for developers to make a game once and sell it everywhe...
Looks like it is on a strong start. Hard/silly to call what overall score or whether it be a "masterpiece" on one full review, but good strong start nonetheless.
Also, whats up with "pre negativity"? No one really has said anything negative and most X1 fans jump all over claiming other people will be negative... it is almost as if they are imagining that they are victim of something..
Either way, all gamers should be happy that there is an...
Def referring to sales gap. Nice try at misleading title. I do not get how Gamingbolt isnt banned...
Gap has been growing almost at 2 to 1 sales. That was even before PS4 dropped price and X1 was significantly cheaper.
Now that PS4 price dropped, it will be harder. MS first have to maintain sales gap before even attempt to close it.
