I never had an Xbox so this is my first experience with the Halo games, except for playing Reach with a friend who had an Xbox.

I'd recommend this collection on sale, getting all these games for $10 is a pretty good deal. I haven't tried the multiplayer, and I'm not sure if I will, but the campaigns are pretty nice so far. I may update this review with an individual review of each game (in release order)

My one complaint so far is for some reason the game keeps freezing my PC. I've tried many different fixes but none of them seem to work at all.

Individual Reviews (In Progress)

Halo: Combat Evolved 7/10

It's alright, a bit difficult in places (Looking at you, Truth and Reconciliation) but alright. It's also a bit easy to get lost, a good tip is just to follow where the enemies are. The Shotgun is very fun to use, packs a nice punch to enemies. The Assault Rifle... not as much.

The story is a bit slow at the start, but after a certain mission things start to pick up and the story gets more exciting. The ending was alright, with a Metroidesque escape sequence from an exploding ship

Halo 2 9/10

Much better than the original, faster shield recharging, a more interesting story that takes place on two sides, weapons are a bit different from Halo: CE, like the assault rifle being Semi-Auto now but still not too shabby

Halo 3 10/10

The story for this one was an absolute banger, haven't tried multiplayer yet but the campaign was very engaging and impactful.
