Highly awaited Game-Will Not DisappointReview created: 07/18/06

As most people say, Halo is what makes XBOX Popular. I disagree with this statement, but thats a whole different topic. Halo 3 is the most anticipated game for the XBOX 360. Many people held off to get an XBOX 360 until this November to get their hands on a copy of Halo 3. With this in mind, there is HUGE pressure on these authors, game designers, game engineers, managers, and Microsoft. With all this pressure on them to build not just a good game but a 'Freakingly Amazing FPS Game that will blow your socks off game of the year' these individuals are going to make the best freaking game you've ever played. Plus it has the Halo name on it too, so you know somewhat to expect, but there are going to be many additional features that is going to be put into this game.
Lets remember back to before Halo 2 was going to be released, this game was one of the best selling games to date. On its launch it sold MILLIONS of copies. Thats how big the anticipation was, and the only real difference between Halo 1 and Halo 2 is: new guns, new levels, new campaign, and XBOX Live. Thats 4 things, thats nothing. When making Halo 2 they knew that they would be making not just Halo 2, but they could forsee the launch of Halo 3 too. With this in mind, they didn't go overboard on making Halo 2, they only added in the necessary features to make Halo 2 a success, and have customers coming back to buy Halo 3, three years later.
Halo 2 was mainly used to get XBOX Live really going smoothly. Honestly, how many people actually played XBOX on the internet before Halo 2 came out? Not many people, there are tons more people playing xbox live now and thats soley because of Halo 2.
Additionally since Halo 3 is going to be the final chapter in the Halo trilligy its going to finish strong, and its going to finish on a great note. I guarantee that this game will be the Game of the Year, and people will be playing this game long after the life of the XBOX 360.
Only people who have never experienced the action of Halo say this guide is not helpful.

Halo 3 - The game every XBOX 360 owner should have28 of 41 people found this review helpful.
Graphics: Breathtaking 9.5/10
The graphics great. The rumors of an upgraded Halo 2, or Halo 2 like graphics is not true. With smooth framerates and stunning effects, you will be taken aback. Take some time to watch the backgrounds and environments and the detail of that went into these levels. This is after you clear everything that moves.
Sound: Amazing – 10/10
The sounds, music, effects, and voices take you immediately into the game. Surround sound is a must so you can hear the shots, shouts, and footsteps of the your opponents in this game. The score for this game heightens you senses, and truly brings you into the game.
Gameplay: Spectacular – 9/10
Smooth animations, large levels, smart enemies and A.I., big battles, and 4-player co-op = awesome. Without giving anything away, this is some great storytelling that gives way to some genuine wow moments.
Replay Value – Amazing 10/10
Multiplayer. That is all I have to say. This game has high replay value. Choose which way you would like to play online, but with the achievements, future downloadable content, 4-player co-op, and with over 1 million copies pre-ordered, and 4 million copies on retailers shelves in the first week, there will always be someone to play with.
Overall – Perfect 9.5/10
I am a fan of First-Person-Shooters (FPS) and all that is associated with them. I enjoy the emersion, and critique them heavily. This game allows you to “finish the fight”, but this game is so much more. The campaign brings closure, but it is the multiplayer aspect that will revolutionize XBOX Live and online gaming as we know it.
Halo 3 is Bungie’s 3-year project and baby, with unlimited resources from Microsoft, that was made to send Microsoft’s XBOX 360 to the next level, and it was worth the wait and money. With over 1 million pre-orders, this epic tale concludes with the highest pre-orders of a game to date. This game in campaign feels, and plays near perfect, and allows veterans and newcomers alike to enjoy and truly experience this game. The story line finishes up the previous two games, and is just long enough to make it feel right, and not dragged out. It took approximately 8.5 hours to beat it on legendary difficulty. It may be a bit shorter, though this was played immediately after a midnight sale of this game. The co-op was well done, and creates a new feel for campaign FPS games. I look forward to the future where this will be the standard in playing games.
The online is well done. Halo 3 has once again set the standard of what an online matchmaking/playing system should be. Putting together fun maps, objectives, and customizable Advatars, this game will appeal to the “newbie”, as well as the everyday online Halo player. With the Halo 2 system being overhauled, and the Bungie stat-tracker updated, this game will quickly become the number one game on XBOX Live.
I could write a five page review on this game, the battles, the enemies, weapons, and AI, but it still would not do it justice. If you have an XBOX 360, you should buy this, and buy it now. If you have thought about getting an XBOX 360, this would be the reason to get one. Does it live up to the hype? I don’t think anything could have lived up to the hype that is game received. This game was praised as the second coming, but what it is one of the best games of 2007, and is beautiful and fun to play.

Halo 3, don't get excited!!Game was not what I expected at all. I found myself bored at times while I was playing this story line. I feel as though Halo 2 was a big improvement from the first Halo but was let down by the quality of gameplay by Halo 3. The game is worth playing through at least once, but other than that, it will collect dust on my shelf.

Halo 3 WowI did enjoy the game. It was well done as Bungie always does. Didn't quite match the quality of Halo 2 IMO. But it was still a very good game and I would highly recommend it

It was in PERFECT condition. Not a single scratch on it. I bought it because I have all of the other Halo's, but I always wait until someone buys it and decides to sell it because it soooo much cheaper.

I love Halo 3. Ever since i've played Halo 1 i just keep getting the others as they come out. I love the online gameplay and the campain is pretty fun. I really can't wait till Halo Wars comes out. I decided to buy it because the first two were so great. Its a ton of fun and i'm really glad i bought it!

After Grand Theft auto 4 game and Call of Duty 4, Halo is the best game I ever played. This game is so realistic and you can say is a little bet long. It was named the best game of year 2007 and it had been recognized back into the 1th X box.

Thought it would be better!!!!I have heard so many people talk about how great this game was, and I decided to buy it and try it out, to be completely honest, at the beggining I was dissapointed, then the game kind of grew on me. The Graph are very good, altough I prefer a more realistic approach on the games, like Call of Duty or Medal of Honor.
I thought it would also be harder.
I have only played it on the solo mode, so I guess that people like more the version in Xbox Live.

Halo 3: Master Chief, locked and loaded one last time!Review created: 05/06/08
by:
The third and final installment of the Halo series is one of the best next-gen FPS titles. Futuristic super-soldier Spartan 117 (the Master Chief) is a superhuman, and yet all too human hero. The game pits him against the zealots of the multi-species alien Covenant and the vile, mind-bending Flood. This time the Chief teams up with a former foe, the Elite alien Arbiter, in order to save Earth, and all life in the galaxy. He must also rescue the computer/holographic love of his life Cortana, who went missing at the end of 2
The game is a FPS, and features amazing weapons, and a rarity among FPS, vehicles. Chief can choose between an array of Human and Covenant weapons and vehicles to aid him in his fight.
In addition to the outstanding storyline, weapons, challenges, and gameplay, the multiplayer is what really stands out about this game!
With a variety of team, free-for-all, and large team modes, Halo 3 remains hugely popular 2 years after its original release. The ability to create your own maps, and the amazing theater, which allows a player to record, and show others his gameplay are incredible additions.
Bungie created a great game from its release, but they continue to support the game on XBox Live, offering downloadable maps, and new multiplayer modes.
The game is a MUST OWN for anyone with an XBox 360! A++!!!
