The 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.

Make no mistake, Halo 3 is the best Halo ever. Not only are the graphics worlds better than in previous installments, the game play and epic scale is unsurpassed. It definitely still feels like Halo, and the graphics aren't as good looking as something like Bioshock, but the seamless check points, minimal loading, and fantastic screen and video capture features put this first person shooter over the top.
The game is definitely a showcase for the Xbox 360 and should be purchased and played by all, regardless of your interest in first person shooters. Like Halo 1 and 2 before it, Halo 3 not only has FPS action, but also numerous vehicles which are controlled via a 3rd person perspective, and some weapons are also used from a pseudo 3rd person perspective.
All gaming sessions can be watched in the Halo 3 theater, and in there you can detach the video camera, stop and start the action, fast forward, capture screen shots, and for non-campaign sessions, even save edited video clips. It is a very robust tool that in and of itself can provide countless hours of fun.
When you throw multiplayer into the mix, Halo 3 is an amazing game well worth the asking price and one that you will undoubtedly play more than once.
Highly recommended.
