What Halo 1 & 2 should've been.

Halo 3 is good because it's finally the way a Halo game SHOULD have played. Every single problem I had with Halo 1 and Halo 2, problems that were no doubt born out of a tight deadline, have been completely eliminated in Halo 3.
Copy-and-paste level design? Gone. Don't like Halo 2's wimpy weapons? Halo 3's arsenal not only brings back some old favorites from Halo 1, but it beefs up most of the weaponry so that EVERYTHING has a use - even the Needler. Don't like playing as the Arbiter? You don't. Don't like how light on plot the game is? Halo 3 digs deep in to the game's universe - deeper than Halo 1 or Halo 2; it digs so deep and compacts the plot so well that it's borderline nonsensical at times. For the first few levels you really get the feeling that Halo 3 is not only the end to the Halo trilogy, but it is also a culmination of all the content that had to be removed from Halo 2 to make the November 9th Deadline.
And that, in a way, is pretty much the only qualm I have with Halo 3 - it is more or less impossible to enjoy Halo 3 to its fullest extent without first having immersed yourself in the Halo universe; you need to not only understand what happened in Halo 1 and Halo 2, but it would also help to have read the novels, too. Though the previous games in the series have never really gone too deep, the Halo universe is actually fairly in-depth and Halo 3 pulls no punches in referencing things from the novels - things the previous games in the series never touched on.
This means, despite Halo 3 being the best, most finely-tuned entry in the series, it will probably never convert anyone. If you didn't like Halo before, Halo 3 probably won't make you see the light - simply because it is doomed to be nothing more than a sequel to a couple of games that caught a bad break. Because, let's make no mistake - this is still Halo, it's just the pinnacle of the franchise.
Beautiful graphics (I'm especially impressed with the lighting/shadowing system), breathtaking music, finely tuned gameplay, humongous outdoor battles, and tons of awesome features to ensure that, long after you've finished the fight, you haven't finished the game.
This is, finally, Halo done right.
What's great about it: Polished experience, lots of variety, epic set pieces, great co-op and online modes
What's not so great: Confusing and dense storyline, requires in-depth knowledge of Halo universe to understand
I would recommend this to a friend!

Plain and simple this game is the greatest halo game ever. It blows the last two games out of the water. This game is not just for kids either. Ive been playing with adults online too, so you know its a great game if your dad or mom is playing it!! There is over 1 million people online to this day. Not to mention the 4 person co-op which is very fun. In Halo 3 there is many more options to choose from like costamization of your armor, the ranks are different, and many more achievements to get. Get your copy of Halo 3 today and if you dont have a 360 trust me its worth buying one for this game!
What's great about it: Great gameplay, many different weapons, and the greatest online and most popular game of this time.
What's not so great: none...I swear this game is worth it.

Great game and huge improvement from Halo 2. If you haven't played Halo 1 or 2 I would recommend renting it before buying in case it's not for you. Story line is somewhat short but online mode makes up for this.
What's great about it: Great Graphics
What's not so great: Online mode is confusing for beginners

Make your own forge map is the funnest feature of the
Halo 3. Multiplayer on Xbox live is more fun then any other xbox live game. Halo 3 is better than all the expectations it was said to be.
What's great about it: awesome multiplayer and fun map editing feature
What's not so great: single player is not as good as Halo 2

This is really a terrific game. The multiplayer gaming is what you buy this game for. The single player campaign is short and not very well thought out near the end, but over all still immensely satisfying. Docked one star for single player campaign mode.
What's great about it: Endless Multiplayer gaming
What's not so great: Short and disjointed single player campaign
I would recommend this to a friend!
