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.

If you liked H2, you will certainly enjoy the upgrade to 360, mostly because of the graphics. Gameplay is very much the same, except for the switching of reload from X to RB. Same old point-and-shoot until they're dead stuff. Online is very glitchy, and one person's lag brings down the connection for everyone. Some of the maps are clearly variations of H2 maps, which is not a big deal considering the glitches and linear gameplay.
On the other hand, the positives of this game strongly outweigh the negatives. The graphics are stunning in 1080p, and the sound follows with the visual appearance. The addition of new guns such as the gravity hammer and Spartan Laser adds a whole new level to the game. Now for the two best additions: Forge and Theater. The Forge is an amazing tool for anyone who was used to the lack of editing power in console games. It lets you take a pre-made map and edit all of the items (weapons, vehicles, etc.). You can even edit a map while your friends are running around killing each other on it. The Theater is just as awesome, allowing you to watch a real-time film of any of your most recent matches. You can even take high-resolution screenshots and video clips of your best kills.
Overall, it is a very impressive performance once again by Bungie. The only thing is: you have seen most of this before. This is why the game has gotten old, at least for myself, within the first couple of months since release. If you are saving up for just one premier shooter this fall/winter, I would suggest looking to Call of Duty 4 because of the innovation and replay value that you cannot find in Halo 3.

What's great about it: Amazing graphics; new guns, maps. Forge and Theater are fantastic additions.
What's not so great: VERY glitchy, some similar map variations, basically same old Halo.
I would recommend this to a friend!
