Halo 3 Review

Overall the game is good. It is a better version of Halo 2. The multiplayer options are much better however the game types have been reduced. The weapons choice is a bit overwhelming and I think they went a bit over board with the variety of weapons used on each map. However the basics (i.e. shotgun sniper battle rifle carbine) are still solid weapons.

what can I say its halo?

The game was about what I was expecting. Though the game it self is pretty short the mulitplayer aspect of the game is great. All in all its a game worth the money and worth the hype.

Everything as great as expected

I am an owner of Halo 2, and so I had high expectations of this game...it did not let me down. Halo 2 had courses that were boring, Halo 3 is actually fun to play offline as well as online! The courses are better, the graphics are better, the wweapons are better. The creators picked up where they left off in Halo 2. Fantastic job!

The BEST First person shooter EVER to be produced

If you didnt like this game, you might as well just throw your 360 out the window, because your no FUN. I have never played a Funner Shooter than this. Rainbow 6 cannot touch this. cod4, will not touch this, this game is a Record breaker seller, and all my friends say it is not that bad, but why are they all still playing it, my friends list has never before showed 16 people on line all playing the same game. NEVER. HALO 3 TAKES it BY a LONG SHOT

Awsome game

This game is pretty awsome with great picture and game play and finially with 4 player co-op play which was needed for a long time and the theater mode is out of this world that you can go back to the games you played and see every thing even the things that you didn't see when playing a total free roam 360 degrees around the whole map.

Good game, exactly what you would expect from the company. Graphics look great and the story keeps you into it until the very last. The only downside was the story did seem a bit shorter than previous versions. The multiplayer has different suits you can wear now, so that was a nice change. Even if you are not a fan, if you like FPS games then get it.

Amazing.

I don't need to say anything more than this: Simply amazing. The online co-op play was the last addition this franchise needed; the addition of Forge Mode was just over the top. Fantastic game. Makes buying the 360 worth it all by itself.

Best Game Out There

This game is so much fan to play, especially on Xbox Live. The graphics are great, nice fluid controls, and pretty easy to learn. The campaign mode seemed kinda short, but I played it co-op with a friend so that made it much easier. It was a blast, though. For $60, this is a great investment for literally years of fun.

Not perfect but better than good

Pros: Excellent gameplay, graphics, AI, large amounts of enemies on screen at once, Cool campaign (4 player co-op option!) Intense multi-player, cool new weapons, new feature called equipment, and the saved film option is awesome.

Cons: Came up short with the campaign, I was hoping for an actual 'fight' when the slogan was "Finish the fight". I bought the game mostly for the campaign, and I was disappointed with the time it took to beat it.

Worth it!

Disappointing singleplayer experience

I was disappointed with the single player campaign. On the good side the controls are pretty tight. But once the grunts start having grenades, launchers, and turrets I could spend 10 minutes clearing a room and occasionally that last grunt hits me with a grenade and I have to start over. I was actually getting bored while fighting. Compare this to Gears of War or Bioshock where I never wanted to stop playing.

There are just too many phenomenal games coming out right now to spend time playing a mediocre campaign.

The guns and reloading controls were aggravating. The reload button is the same as the switch weapon button so I constantly found myself switching weapons when I would duck behind cover to reload. I would then have to franticly scrounge around for my decent weapon while under fire.

I was also annoyed that the game had 12+ weapons. They wanted to add a couple new weapons each game in the series, but most weapons felt roughly the same in damage and shot spread so I found it a pain to remember which I had equipped and decide if it was worth switching. Several guns look alike to a casual glance and on the tougher gameplay modes most weapons are down to a dozen shots by the time you kill the enemies so you are out of ammo in a room with a dozen guns with a couple shots left each.

Once I switched the game to "easy" mode it became bearable as I could just blow through the game and ammo was then plentiful and I wasn't wasting as much time taking multiple head shots to kill elites.

If you are looking for a good singleplayer experience you may want to look elsewhere.
