Halo 3 is the third game in the Halo Trilogy and the thrilling conclusion to the events begun in Halo: Combat Evolved. Master Chief returns to finish the fight, bringing the epic conflict between the Covenant, the Flood, and the entire human race to a dramatic, pulse-pounding climax. The Covenant occupation of Earth has uncovered a massive and ancient object beneath the African sands - an object whose secrets have yet to be revealed. Earth's forces are battered and beaten. The Master Chief's AI companion Cortana is still trapped in the clutches of the Gravemind - a horrifying Flood intelligence, and a civil war is raging in the heart of the Covenant. It's all been building to this -- a desperate, final war that leads to a soul-shattering climax of epic proportions. Take control of Master Chief to defeat the Covenant and destroy the Flood to prevent the annihilation of the human race.

Cleans up Halo 2's mistakes

I loved Halo 2's co-op features,but I thought that the missions were terrible!The missions where you were elites were just agony!But Halo 3 is such a large step up in TONS of way,such as,the co-op maps are a lot more fun,complex,and just plain better than Halo 2,the missions are so much better I can't name all of the improvements,but I will anyway.My favorite thing about co-op missions is to ride in a vehicle,my brother drives,while I operate the turret and wipe out all enemies in our path.I beat the game on all levels of difficulty and still haven't gotten tired of the game,I play it every time I go down to my neighbors house(which is quite often)and we enjoy every minute of it,whether it be shotguns,energy swords,or rocket launcher(all of which are my favorites)it's always a blast.Halo 3 is my favorite Xbox 360 game and I can't wait till Halo Wars comes out(I love RPG's)(role playing games).

not that fun

maybe its just me, but i found halo 3 to be a little cheesey and weird. keep in mind that i have not played the other 2. alot of the weapons were lame and half the time, i couldnt see where i was in the game. much of it is darkly lit or hard to see. overall, there are better shoot-'em-up games out there.

I hear a lot of people saying call of duty 4 is better than halo 3, halo 3 is better than call of duty 4, etc,etc. They are both excellent games, and compliment each other. After playing the realism of cod4 it's nice to switch back to the low gravity, energy shield world of halo3. I also think the online play of halo3 is just that much more fun because you end up playing with more random people, who seem to talk more.

I don't understand the hype

Ok i didn't have the first xbox so when I got my 360 I went out and bought
halo 1&2 because i knew 3 was coming soon. I just got bored with 1 and 2 still i gave this game benefit of the doubt and rent it and beat it, mind you I own 1&2 own still haven't beat them and it not because this game is fun but because it's really short. now the best thing about this game is the online play HANDS DOWN. But after 200 rounds of death match it can get old. the story not that epic as if it was touch by the hands of the maker, so why the hype.the vehicles in all this games handle so horribliy this is how i'd imagine a cat on roller skates would handle like. and the two weapons at a time i can't stand it's a video games it suppose to be unrealalistic and be sides that your shootings aliens for pete's sake. And yes i've actually people make the agruement "the 2 weapons thing is the games way of being realalistic, you couldn't carry 6 or 7 weapon could you?" if i've offended sorry but i'd rather be playing gears of war.

Huge let down

I honestly thought that Halo 3 would make me a believer, but it didnt. I played the first one and hated it. Played the second one and hated it; then I played the third installment and hated it even more. The campaign sucks. It is incredibly easy to pass and online sucks even more. I really don't see what people talk about. I don't see the magic. The guns feel weak and toy like. Perhaps what annoys me the most are the 12 year old kids that skip school to play. Rented and try it out. You might like it more than I did.
