Learn more about Halo 3. (Flash demo) SynopsisThe Covenant rules the Earth — the Flood has been unleashed — and the fate of life everywhere hangs in the balance. 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. Next-generation graphics and technological advances, such as enhanced artificial intelligence and a beefed-up real-time lighting engine, make Halo 3 shine with stunning realism.

"I thought this game was a lot more fun and exciting than Halo 2 because it has a lot more features and is a lot more interesting because of that. I liked how you can detach the turrets and I liked the gravity hammer. I did not like that it was not as challenging as I thought it would be."

"good game if you are plying with your friends online or even linked up.

Bad, Bad, and i mean BAD campaign. i was very dissapointed with the ending and the story in general.

Bungie's new rank system came out today (9/23/08), it was the Title Uptade. there are new achievments and medals, but it seems the te rank system is actually worse than the last one.

What's great about it: Finishes Halo trilogy, amazing multiplayer, cool weapons
What's not so great: Nothing really new over past games

"If you like FPS games, this is a no brainer. If you like Halo, this is a no brainer. If you want an amazing story, inventive weapons and innovative gameplay... this game is pretty good. But online is where this game really shines as an example of what to do. If you don't like playing online, you'll still enjoy the campain mode, but you probably won't hold onto this title."

What's great about it: Great multiplayer and replayable campaign
What's not so great: Too addictive

"Bungie has done a great job with the last game of the series. The multiplayer is vast with plenty of types of gameplay and there are always a plethora of people on. This is one game that is very hard to turn off."

What's great about it: MLG Playlist
What's not so great: Lag Switchers, Host Boters, and Nubz

"Really, I love how everyone complains about HALO 3's campaign. I mean seriously it's better than HALO 2's. Also if you're gong to by HALO 3 you should know first that it's basically an online game. HALO 3 is the best multiplayer game out there. If you don't believe me just go to www.mlgpro.com Also I'm rating the difficulty by how hard it is online playing MLG."

What's great about it: co-op on/offline. 16 player online games. good graphics, tons of fun.
What's not so great: none

"This is my favorite game at the moment. I was debating on getting this or Call of Duty 4. But when i found out that you can only play co-op online and not offline with Call of Duty 4, that's what made me decide to get Halo 3 instead. I later rented Call of Duty 4, but i got bored, and ended up wasting my money on that rental. Halo 3 has tons of featured game modes like capture the flag, rocket race, infection, oddball, bomb assault, team doubles, big team, head to head, 4 vs 4, co-op campaign. You can also customize levels and game types. It's the best game in my opinion."

What's great about it: online coop, multiplayer, and music
What's not so great: not difficult enough in coop mode, story lacking

"This really is a good game. It combines great online mulitplayer with online and split screen coop. The graphics look pretty good, but I expected better from Bungie. The story seems a little lacking throughout the game (almost like they didn't have a full story but they had to make a full game). Overall I give Halo 3 a B."

What's great about it: online system, graphics
What's not so great: not quite as long lasting as COD4

"This game is one that every serious gamer needs to own and perfect his/her skills at. I have yet to find another game that plays better at lan parties with friends. The online ranking system, while not as good as COD4's in my opinion, is one of the best out there. One can even play co-op online now. The achievements are difficult enough to as to not make the game seem boring, although the skulls are one of those ones that I wish they would just leave out of games. The graphics are great, the appeal still remains for a long time, and it's one of those games you'll pull back out someday and enjoy playing during some summer you have nothing better to do."
