Halo 3
This is not that much of an improvement from the other Halos to me, it's the same old thing. This is not at all a story driven game its just all out crap, although it may have good graphics (if you call that pompous, delusional nerd's idea of "realism" good graphics or even close to just imitating real life) and an exciting live mode it's just not creative. You could take every cliche for the past fifty years and stir it into a gray paste to lather on the faces of the brain-dead hordes of morons that worship this game and it would be more beneficial for their poor, warped minds than to have them play this game. It sucks.
An actual quote from a frequent player of this abominable franchise; "I-LOVE-HALO... MUST-PLAY-HALO... I-STILL-HAVE-BRAIN-CELLS!!! MUST-REMEDY-AND-PLAY-HALO!!!" And just like the others of his kind and the legion of air-headed preteen girls sucked into the Hannah Montana vortex, his body, which would not yield to slavery like his mind had, promptly picked up the closest blunt object to himself and bashed his brains out...

Great, but not superb.
Much akin to the previous installments, Halo 3 offers an excellent story, and an enjoyable single player experience. The mulitplayer aspect of the game, whether it takes place in the same room, or on Xbox Live, is where the game often shines brightest. There are many maps from which to choose, and a vast array of variables to create a unique experience every time you pick up the controller.
The game is an overall improvement over Halo 2. The single player mode has been lengthened, and the multiplayer has been deepened.
While not perfect, it is still a must-own for the Xbox 360.

Once again Bungie has created an amazing game. The campaign mode is much better in this installment then in Halo 2. The multiplayer mode rocks as always. There are some great maps in this version. File sharing and the Halo theater are great additions. If you are a halo fan, this game is a must.

Halo 3- It's not the Best, but what is?
(This is my dads account on here, not mine, still don't have a credit card =P.)
This game has been criticized by some, loved by many, and accepted by the gaming community. Then why are there all these bad reviews?
1. Graphics: 9/10
I am sick and tired of hearing people say that this game's graphics are horrible, or bad compared to other games. So what? Some say that it's just slight improvment over Halo 2. If you say that, please, get your old xbox and a second tv out and look at the ddifference. It is phenomenal. So is the lighting and overall look at the game. Sure, if Bungie had released a month later due to more graphical improvements, but hey, it's not a bad looking game.
2. Sound: 10/10
The Sound of this game is one of it's biggest strong points. Almost everything that happens has a unique and wonderfully realistic sound in it. From the battle cries to the sounds of gunfire, this is amazing. And the soundtrack of the game is also incredibly good, setting the mood just right. I like how Bungie made it so everything you hear is real time, of real conflicts happenning somewhere in the game.
3. Gameplay: 9.5/10
I hate whenever people compare this to the original Halo's gameplay and say it is crap. This game retains the same basic Halo gameplay, just with newer features. Gameplay is solid and versatile. The vehicles I found incredibly amazing to drive and shoot, and the weapons are perfectly balanced out. Everything feels just right for this finale of a series. And instead of just menial gameplay modes such as capture the flag and deathmatch, like COD4(I'm probably gonna get a lot of bull crap from this, but Halo 3 has way more flexibility) Halo 3 expands it's multiplayer by adding many gametypes such as Oddball and Infection. Then, you can tweak the gamemodes to make it even more fun. Forge is also one of the best things in this game also. Create your own map, then share it with the Gaming World as whole. Theater is also cool, as you can see just how awesome that kill you ade was or whatever you want to do.
4. Story: 8/10
This is Halo 3's weak point. Halo 2 added an overwhelming number of characters and plots that confused players. Halo 3 took Halo 2's horrible eding and twisted everything up nicely into a neat finale.
5. Multiplayer: 10/10
This is everything Halo 3 is about. Halo 3's multiplayer is better than anything else I have played. Even when compared to Call of Duty 4, there is almost nothing that compares to it, besides World of Warcraft. I have spent over 1000 hours playing and have not considered it old. If you have Xbox Live, this game is a must have.
