This game is the only reason I bought a 360 over a PS3. And thankfully it lived up to my expectations. The graphics are pretty good. Not as good as a few other 360 games, but still good enough. The game play is great. Computer AI on the Heroic and Legendary difficulties has been improved quite a bit. I do recommend that if you're a seasoned Halo and Halo 2 player, you start the campaign right away on at least Heroic. Normal mode is just simply way to easy. Perhaps on of the best things about the game is the sound. I have it hooked up to a home theater system and an LCD TV, and it is just an incredible, enveloping experience. And of course with the solid online multi-player, I know already that I'll get just as many years of enjoyment out of this one as I did Halo and Halo 2. Don't even hesitate. Just buy it now. (oh, but don't waste your money on the Limited Edition. I did, and I have to say that was ten extra dollars, poorly spent)
What's great about it: great gameplay, sound, graphics, and lasting appeal
What's not so great: None
I would recommend this to a friend!

I bought this the first day it came out and have not stopped playing it since. the campaign on easy takes about 4 hours and on Legendary it takes about 8 hours to finish. The online is good but the ranked online game types are kind of bland. There is not "only snipers game type or SWAT like in Halo 2. The online achievements are really easy and you can pretty much get every campaign achievement just playing through on legendary. Overall this is a very good game.
What's great about it: Great Multiplayer
What's not so great: Short Campaign
I would recommend this to a friend!

If you have any previous version of Halo don't waste your money on Halo 3 unless you simply are one of those people who have to have a copy of everything in a series. If you've already read other reviews you probably already know not to buy the "Limited" edition of the game as the packaging is the worst excuse for design and will likely gaurantee that your disk will be severely scratched and possibly unplayable. Serious people- are we gamers really so sususceptible to the hype? Yes, I preordered my copy (though that was not necessary as I don't know of any stores in my community that haven't kept it in stock since the release date) because I was/am a big Halo fan. Does Halo 3 live up to the hype? Not even close. Nothing new (ok you get to drive a 4-wheeler) and the brutes being the main apponents is such a dissapointment as they offer no real challenge compared to the Elites which are far more threatening and interesting to battle. Even the Jackels have lost their skills and are really no more a threat than the little silly sounding grunts. Nothing special with weapon improvements, no new, improved moves or abilities and the graphics are no better than the previous Halo versions (unless you like to watch a bush shake as a character brushes against it). Like others, I couldn't wait to get Halo 3 in my new Xbox 360 Elite. Although I bout the 360 and a new HD TV a few weeks prior to the Halo 3 release, I truly decided to go ahead and spend the $ because Halo 3 was coming out. I'm thankful there are other games. Soon after putting the game in and sitting down with high expectations I found my mood sinking with dissapointment. Not that Halo 3 isn't a good game; it's just that there is nothing improved at all over previous versions (and if anything it is less fun). It did get my blood up for Halo again though and while I haven't finished Halo 3, I have been playing Halo 2 again (and physically ducking and shifting in my chair as I battle an Elite- a reaction Halo 3 hasn't come close to causing). Halo 3 hasn't even been back in my console since 9/27/07. Halo and Halo 2 are much better games, much more challenging and the Elite are far more interesting, challenging, and intense in battle than are the Brutes. Halo 3 has given a whole new meaning to the saying "Two is company and three is a crowd". My copy is taking up space in my case. As a result of it's being the number 3 that makes up my crowd, I gave it 3 stars. Halo and Halo 2 still rate 5 stars in my book.
What's great about it: Halo is a good, fun game with a great story
What's not so great: There is absolutely nothing new that adds to the game

graphics not up to par with other games out there. Way over hyped.
Gameplay is the same old schtick. I've been there done that, 10 years ago...give me something new and exciting. Newbies will like this title if they never played a game like this before. Hardcore players will get bored easily.
What's great about it: completes the series
What's not so great: over hyped graphics, gameplay
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

I found that Halo 3 is terrible in campaign mode. The story is awful, the scenes are horrendous and the characters laughable. One could hardly call the game engaging. The graphics in this game are decent, but not something that one would expect from a flagship product (Gears of War has better graphics). Multi player is fun, however get old after a while, as this is just the same old Halo as before.
What's great about it: Fair graphics, good multiplayer
What's not so great: Fair graphics, bad firstplayer

I was somewhat disappointed after playing Halo 3 after the first week. Seems to be simply an extension of Halo 2 more than a totally new game. There are very few multiplayer levels which is a large drawback. The graphics, on the other hand, are amazing and the multiplayer aspects of the game are still second to none. I recommend it, but don't buy it expecting a long single player experience.. I beat it in a few hours..
What's great about it: Great Graphics. Same old great multiplayer game play..
What's not so great: Very similar to Halo 2.. Short single player..

I bought this game becuase of all the hype...plus I was looking for a new xbox game to play so I figured I give Halo a try. I never played any of the previous Halo games, but I have always been a fan of FPS games. I think Halo 3 is average. I mean, the graphics look great, but its not too exciting for me. The weapons aren't that great and the enemies are pretty repetitive. I am playing on campaign mode..no LIVE yet. I got to the scarab tank fight and pretty much given up. I cannot figure out how to beat it and I have lost all interest in the game now. I just think this game is very overated.
