Pros
Pro Every game other than Halo 2 runs at 1080p and 60fps
Three of the four games have 1080p upgrades to them, which is great for those that want to revisit the franchise or who are new to it, to be able to have better clarity and visuals.
Pro Local split screen on all 4 titles
The whole game allows for local split screen multiplayer, something that is a bit of a lost feature nowadays with online play. This makes for a great party game as many users can trade off on controllers per match on one TV.
Pro Easier to learn and enjoy than most other similar titles

Pro Fun to collect loot
One of the better parts of Diablo III is collecting the piles of gold, the colorful gems, and various pieces of equipment. It's especially exciting when a legendary quality item drops from a monster since it makes a distinct sound effect and shoots a beam of orange/green light into the sky. So whenever a lot of legendary items drop all at once it just feels incredibly satisfying.
Pro Decent selection of character builds to try out
There are more than 50 distinct class/skill combinations, including ranged builds, melee builds, support builds, defensive builds, pure-offense builds, and many more. You're sure to find a build that you'll enjoy playing, whether you prefer to play alone or with friends.
Cons
Con Halo 2 does not run at 1080p
While the rest of the games in the collection run in 1080p, Halo 2 does not as it runs at 1328 by 1080.
Con Endgame grinding can get really repetitive
The endgame in Diablo III consists of only two things – completing bounties and clearing greater rifts. Both of these have very little variation in them, so quite often you'll run through the same map layouts, clear the same enemies, and complete the same objectives. This gets extremely stale after long play sessions and can cause you not to pick up the game again.
