Master Chief, a genetically engineered super soldier, is the last chance for humanity's survival. Stowed away on a Forerunner ship, he rushes back to Earth to defeat the Covenant once and for all. Hopelessly outnumbered, his outlook is bleak. But when you are bred for battle, you fight past the breaking point and bow to no one. It's all been building to this — a desperate, final war that leads to a soul-shattering climax of epic proportions. Help this incredible hero stop the Covenant, destroy the Flood and save the lives of every person on the planet. The third chapter in the critically acclaimed franchise features insane battles with an arsenal of alien and human weaponry. Discover all-new armaments and characters as you fight to the finish. You can even play online with Xbox Live and battle in pulse-pounding multiplayer action.

The worst halo game   01/27/2008
By BobLarryJoe

What's great about it: online play
What's not so great: campain

"This is the worst halo game yet. It is nothing like COD4. If you got to choose witch game to choose go with COD4. In this game you have to unload WAY to much ammo just to kill ONE person."

HALO!   01/25/2008
By spozi from FW, Indiana

What's great about it: the whole thing
What's not so great: more campaign levels

"I had never played Halo before. My cousin had just gotten Xbox for Chistmas. One week when i stayed with him during vacation he decided to go out and buy Halo. We didn't do anything else for 5 days after we opened the case except for eating and the occasional bathroom break. I was pulled into the world of Halo. The story was incredible, the action was intense. I bought a PS3. I still love the PS3 but the fact it doesn't have Halo is a bummer. I plan on buying an Xbox for the Halo series alone!"

Great Game   01/24/2008
By BattlefieldBob from Northern VA

What's great about it: Great Campaign, multiplayer, and game modes
What's not so great: Campaign a little on the short side

"I got this as a birthday present and it's awsome, I've been wanting it for a while. I completed Halo, and Halo2, so I really wanted to see the conclusion in Halo3. I think the guys at Bungie did a really great job! But the campaign was a little short, but it was very good.

The multiplayer on Xbox Live is very neat. I like the rankink system. I also like the fact that you can do the campaign, and forge on Xbox live. I like the file share also. It lets you post games and maps that you made in Forge :) so that other people can download them to play.

If you are looking to buy this game, BUY IT NOW!!!! :)

AWWWWWWWWWWWWWSOME!!!!   01/23/2008
By DJtheBomb

What's great about it: none stop action!!!!!!!
What's not so great: None

"I don't like gun games a lot. But Halo 3 is the BOMB! You will be on the edge off your seat through out the game. The levels are hard and that's what makes this game so exciting. You have to travel from place to place save Cortana and much more! I 100% recommend this game!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!"

Another Triumph!   01/23/2008
By JeepSafari from Cottonwood Heights, UT

What's great about it: Graphics, Storyline, Control, Multiplayer
What's not so great: Over too quickly

"I've been a fan of the Halo series since the beginning in 2001. Halo 3 is a big improvement over Halo 2 in that you are now playing as the Master Chief in all levels and the Arbiter has been relegated to the role of sidekick. There is less repitition of the levels in this version over the previous two as well. If you enjoyed the first two games, please do yourself a favor and get this one too, you won't regret it."

Halo?   01/19/2008
By vin1072002 from Springdale, Ar

What's great about it: GREAT online play,
What's not so great: graphics arent great, not many changes from the previous halo

"Halo is an alright story not great. Graphics were well under my expectations. Overall not much change.... accept for the onlne play. The online play is so awesome, I play everyday for months now. Other games I stop playing after I beat it but halo 3's replay potential is amazing. I have so many videos saved of me kicking but. There are so many different types of games so anyone could be made happy."

narwal is obviously a ps3 and COD4 fan   01/18/2008
By halo5 from tx

What's great about it: everything especially online play
What's not so great: ??? is there one?

"Halo 3 is an awesome game. the campaign is soooo much better than the halo 2 campaign, the multiplayer maps are great and the forge makes them even better, and the new armor permutation feature is sweet. But without a doubt, the best part of this game is the online play. if you do not have xbox live gold, then you will not realize how sweet this game is. The online play in this game is just as good as cod4, which one you like better is based on your playing style. I highly recommend this game to everyone."

Not anything to brag about   01/17/2008
By narwal

What's great about it: ...better than halo 2
What's not so great: nothing special about this game, especially the graphics

"This game basically sucks if you think about it. The graphics aren't that great for an fps and there is a horrible frame rate. The maps are very similar, even identical, to halo 2. You are not getting anything more except graphics that are slightly better. The graphics are 720p at best, andd do not even look good on my 1080p lcd tv. Compared to other fps games out there, like call of duty 4, this game does not even compare slightly. Yes, this game has a reputation for good online play. But so what, what game nowadays doesn't. I will give it credit where it is deserved, however. The game is better than halo 2. Undoubtedly, the only reason this game is popular is because of its long time on the market. If you are considering buying a 360 for this gamje...don't waste your money. I should have bought the ps3. The graphics are much much better and the games are pretty much the same. All in all, Halo 3 is a waste of time and money!!!"

Microsoft *WOOT*   01/10/2008
By gamegirl from wny

What's great about it: Halo! oh how i love you
What's not so great: campaign could be longer, same storyline

"Halo is a must to anyone! The only thing I found wrong with it is that being a halo player the storyline can be a little repetitive and the campaign mode is slightly shorter. The only thing I recommend for Halo is Xbox Live. That is a definite must have! Other than that great job Bungie and Microsoft another ace in the hole! U rock my soxs! ♥"

By jstepp

What's great about it: graphics
What's not so great: gets old quick

"This game was fun when it first came out but then it gets old. If your a Halo fanatic get it but if you want a good shooter get Call Of Duty 4 its much better."

By Anonymous

What's great about it: Controls, Graphics, Online, Guns, Story
What's not so great: None!!!

"If you liked the guns in Halo2 and the gameplay/storyline of Halo, gotta love this one. The online play is sweet and so are the graphics. The game is kinda short but online play lasts forever."

Great Game!   01/08/2008
By Jasonx144 from Greensboro, NC

What's great about it: Online Matchmaking, Lots of players online, and you can Gain Ranks online which is pretty neat, Easy game to get use to.
What's not so great: Campaign can get boring and is short, wouldn't recommend someone who doesn't have XBox Live

"This game is really great, but if you do not have XBox Live, then it is just a 3-Day Rental Game, but if you do have LIVE, Online Matchmaking and Multiplayer brings you into a new World of Online Gaming."
