Editorial Reviews
The Covenant rules the Earth the Flood has been unleashed — and the fate of life everywhere hangs in the balance. There is only one person capable of saving the human race: Master Chief. This genetically engineered super soldier is the last chance for humanity's survival. Everything he has gone through has led him to this monumental moment. Stowed away on a Forerunner ship, he rushes back to Earth to defeat the Covenant once and for all. Hopelessly outnumbered, and with his Artificial Intelligence companion Cortana ensnared by Gravemind, things look bleak. But when you are bred for battle like Master Chief, 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. You'll 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. Finish the fight once and for all in the epic conflict between the Covenant, the Flood and the entire human race in the climatic curtain call of the awesome Halo saga.

I know there's a big debate about first person shooter, but I have to tell you, I love this game. My entire family plays it together - my two girls; 9 & 6 along with my husband and I.

My little ones have no problem knowing that this is a game. Here's the typical game night:

"I see Bob... I'm coming to get you Bob... I'm going to kill Bob..." chants my 9 year old followed by, "One more for me. Oh, look, there's Hardy... I'm coming to get you Hardy... What, where'd you go.... there you are... I'm going to kill Hardy...." My screen goes dark. I'm dead. I know she's a sweet little girl and doesn't realized the panic and terror she's invoking with her high pitched monolog of doom, but hey, it works!

Then there's my six year old. "I see Dad. I'm going to jump over you and kill you." Followed by massive giggling. And sure enough, that's just what she does: Jumping as she makes her avatar jump and spinning as she kills him with two punches to the back of the head.

Then you hear the girls fighting, "No fair making a fortress! That's cheating!"

Apparently, youngest has developed an interesting strategy in Halo. She buys a cache of weapons, stashes them in a corner. Then she plants mines all around the area so only she knows the safe route. Next she ventures until she spots another player.... You can guess what comes next. Blam! You step into a mine as you chase her. Not bad for a 6 year old. LOL

For us, it's a game our whole family can enjoy!

Excellent all around

The game was solid. Single player was decently lengthed, if my memory serves me, at around 15 hours of gameplay. The story was entertaining and filled with a variety of circumstances that really kept the player on the edge of suspense. Multiplayer was a blast, if unbalanced, certain weapons being vastly overpowered. And co-op. The single player was long enough, epic enough, and fun enough to make the co-op experience probably one of the most satisfying gaming experiences of my life, and I've done a lot of gaming.

Well, where to start. I really really love this game. It is honestly one of my favorites. (spoiler alert!!!!) I think that they ended the game waaay to early... I can't believe that Master Chief dies in the end... that is soooo freakin' lame!!!! they ended one of their best series waaay to early... but other then that, the online multiplayer is amazing! and the campaign is fun.

The Complete Halo 3 Multiplayer Experience!

Halo 3 is now a classic multiplayer gem for the xbox 360, but it also should be for the PC that would be incredible!
the graghics, gameplay, sound, online, controls and everything else (besides the extremely retarded campaign) is 100% original!
i wish that Halo 3 would just have all armor, maps, acheivements, emblems and tons of NEW ones to unlock!
Including skulls then that would be awesome!
With no campaign!
if you want to download all the 24 maps and armor with your money, then get this.
But if you want all maps and armor with a better campaign with its own first-ever horde then get ODST!!!
The videos, screenshots, matchmaking, custom games, forge (level-editor), all of it is extremely fun!
But get "Halo 3: ODST" intsead you get all 24 maps and have a chance to unlock the legendary armor "RECON"!!!

I know I am behind the curve on getting to play Halo 3 but I am age 68 and just moved up from regular Xbox which I have played all of the levels and the top level over so many times it just wore it out. The disk just quit. So a month ago I moved to 360 Elite and bought COD-MW and Halo 3 ODST. ODST was great but way too short so I just had to get Halo 3 to play through before Halo Reach comes out in a month. Now I am working my way up the levels of 3. It is awesome! It was available at a great price as well. I purchased a separate 50 inch Samsung Plazma TV and Bose surround sound system and put it all in a spare room so I can lose myself there. It is quite an experience. OK, don't bother me. I am going to play Halo 3.
