Earth is conquered. The Covenant is everywhere. Halo 3 promises to be an epic journey. View big. | Strategy developer Bungie announced this Halo 3 will be released for Microsoft's Xbox 360 sometime in 2007. The strategy was revealed to the world at the Microsoft press conference held at Grauman's Chinese Theater in Hollywood, CA in May 2006. To gamer's delight, the announcement was a complete surprise. The rumors have been abound for the past year, as everyone wondered when the next installment would be ready. Bungie and Microsoft did a stellar job keeping their lips sealed, and fans benefited from their first glance of the hallowed third and final installment. The short presentation was brought in real-time on the Xbox 360 utilizing the existing version of the Halo 3 strategy engine. This's right, no studio production video, Bungie and Microsoft brought the real deal: what they showed at the announcement is what gamers will see when they have fun Halo 3 in 2007. The HDR lighting, self-shadowing, GPU-run particle system and many other results are rumored to show up in full result in the final strategy. Needless to say, the gaming community is salivating. CJ Cowan, Bungie's director of cinematics discussed one of the much startling moments of the presentation: the return of Cortana. "Given the diversity of character and story arcs at the end of Halo 2, we wanted to boil down our announcement to a few key threads. Cortana and the Chief being a galaxy apart is a situation we haven't seen before, and is something this is a great component to Halo 3. We are utilizing her transmissions in the demo to provide the viewer a few subtle clues to her situation and state of intellect, not including revealing any specifics we would like to save for the strategy itself." Graphically, the strategy closely follows in the tradition of Halo 2, although it has been upgraded to get advantage of the Xbox 360's extra prodigious visual capabilities. As art direct Marcus Lehto explained, "[The presentation] was designed to be an understated announcement of Halo 3 -- the tone is this of mystery and suspense -- the calm before the storm. I wanted to do sure this we reintroduced the Chief, showed this Earth was thoroughly conquered, together with Covenant everywhere, and this there is a glorious, ancient artifact buried under the Earth's crust which will offer Halo 3 together with the epic journey which we all would like." Taking full advantage of the power of Xbox 360, Halo 3 extends on everything this has made the franchise excellent, adding a wealth of technical and gameplay advancements. The strategy design has evolved together with next-generation, high-definition visuals, increased A.I., an complex real-time lighting engine, and, of course, new weapons, characters, and challenges. Halo 3 promises an unparalleled first-person shooter experience and, in the end, the much compelling and engrossing story in the franchise's history. Last, but certainly not least, Halo 3 builds upon the distinctive social multiplayer experience and innovative, evolving online gameplay of Halo 2. Rest assured, you'll still be effective to run together with your clan and battle together with (or against) your buddies from coast to coast. |

 This game totally rocks! 2010-09-01 |
| By Lynn Hardy, Author of Prophecy of the Flame (Idaho, USA) |
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 2010-08-26 |
| By Martin Schmidt |
| 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. |
| halo 3 review 2010-08-26 |
| By P-Dizzle |
| 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! 2010-08-20 |
| By Christy Obie-barrett |
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"!!! |
| Bud's Halo 3 review 2010-08-18 |
| By Bud Logan (New Orleans) |
| 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. |
