    Halo Infinite Nailed It… Mostly

    Few times have I ever been so worried about a game’s release. I mean, how many times did this game change directors? And how big was the budget, again? Five hundred million bucks? Not only that, but it was the follow-up to Halo 5, a game that every Halo fan in the world hated. If…
