What Halo 2 should've been November 26, 2008
0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Halo 3 does nothing new, but does it well. Every feature - from the weapon balance, to the multiplayer matchmaking - is solidly built. The visuals, while not truly extraordinary, are still delightful. The sound is great, and the musical score - fantastic.
The problem with Halo 3 though, once you get past the gimmicky bells and whistles, is that it failed to provide much new. By far the most exciting feature in the fame is the Forge map editor. Beyond that, however, the game is just an upgrade to Halo 2.
Still, it's a ton of fun to play, and nicely concludes the Halo storyline. I'd definitely suggest the game to anybody else.

I am not very good at video games so I was glad to see that this has an easy level of difficulty which made it fun for me. I wish they would have added "Very Easy" as well but I still had fun.
Halo is always fun....atleast multiplayer :) November 23, 2008

What can I say Halo is alway's fun and especially it's multiplayer I dont have much too say because everyone that wanted this game has it but if you are on the fence in purchasing it, do not hesitate it is a fun co op game in the story mode and also online is just super fun I actually think it's on par with call of duty 4 and slighty below warhawk on ps3 wich is my favorite online game.
pro's
multiplayer
control
map editor
cons
story
graphics
not as good as halo 2
Cheers :)

First of all, I was never a huge Halo fan. Could be for many reasons (I never had an XboX, I don't consider this Science fiction, wasn't good at First person shooters, etc.) In fact I was adamantly against it.
I think I warmed up a bit to it, when I started playing it a bit more and got a feel for it. However, when I got a 360, my friend brought over Halo 3, and showed me online multiplayer. That's what hooked me in. If you like playing online, this is a must buy. Now I didn't buy the legendary edition or anything like that, just spent $25 and bought the regular one used. By far it is one of the games I play the most, strictly for the online play.
What else I like about this is the Forge and Theater. In Forge, you can edit maps to creat new obstacles, and then share them online when playing with a group. Same goes for theater, in which you can go back through past games and take screen shots or video clips of any victories/cool stuff that happened and upload those onto you file share as well. Same goes for game variants. There are a lot of options to vary up the online experience.
There are drawbacks, most of which you have little to no control over. There will be a system lag at times, and you can't really do anything about the other players online. Remember this is the internet, and most people use it to slander others annonymously. For those that talk trash, there are muting options and you have the option to boot a player that is guilty of team killing, although you'll have to assess if it was an accident or not. Pass that, you have to ignore a lot of the small stuff.
All in all, the online play is what makes this game good, not really the story (in my opinion).
A real gem and a must have! November 17, 2008

Halo 3, the amazingly highly anticipated sequel to the highly successful and critically acclaimed Halo franchise and being the third and final installment. This is easily one of the best games out with taking full advantage of the power of Xbox 360, Halo 3 expands on everything that has made the franchise great, adding a wealth of technical and gameplay advancements. The game design has evolved with next-generation, high-definition visuals, enhanced AI, an advanced real-time lighting engine and of course new weapons, characters, and challenges. Halo 3 promised an unparalleled first-person shooter experience and, in the end, we got just that with the most compelling and engrossing story in the franchise's history. Halo 3 also redifines the multiplayer experience by boosting a lot more fun than that of the previous Halos and introducing a mode of character customization. With still being the number one multiplayer online delivering on entertainment.
Halo 3 is a phenomenal piece of work and is probably the best game available on the console with loads of replay ability and plenty of entertainment and a unique multiplayer experience that is highly recommended. If for some reason you haven't played this game yet, I recommend that you do so. A true gem in the gaming industry and is simply breathtaking.
