Product Description
Halo 3 is the third game in the Halo Trilogy and will provide the thrilling conclusion to the events begun in Halo: Combat Evolved. Halo 3 will pick up where Halo 2 left off. The Master Chief is returning to Earth to finish the fight. 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. This is how the world ends...

Foremost, I believe Halo 3 has the best graphics and sound to date with a continuation of a fantastic soundtrack. Mjollinor Mix continues to this day on my iPod. The storyline was not too hard to follow, but required going back through the original Halos to shore up everything that was occurring. I would even say the story ended satisfactorily...especially considering the Master Chief is now back in action in the new Halo games.
Halo has always been my favorite game, next to Gears of War, because of the simple concept of pick up a weapon, kill your enemies, and move forward. Simple, straightforward, easy...until you increase the difficulties of your stupid enemies, haha. New enemies, new weapons, and new vehicles...each with their pros and cons. Very easy to figure out what you're supposed to do and where you're supposed to go. Save the world already!
As to the selling point on Halo 3, the multiplayer experience is/was just amazing. The matching, the loading, the maps, etc. Very few glitches and a whole lot of fun all nighters playing Halo 3. The worst part was paying Microsoft and having them try to auto charge you for the next month instead of letting you decide whether or not to pay.
Definitely a game I go back to and play often, whether alone or with friends. Probably still will if Halo 4 is all they have to offer down the line. Let's see what Halo 5 can do!
Then in 2009 I beat it by myself on Heroic, 1 month later me and my Best friend spent 5 hours beating it on Legendary....It was lots of fun. Now I have Xbox-Live so I am really good at it I am on a professional Halo team. I am rank 40 and have over 500 Exp.
So overall this is probably one of the greatest shooter games of all time. Halo started First-Person Console shooter games. So If you like Call of Duty Modern Warfare more than Halo just remember Call of Duty wouldn't have happened without the Halo Franchise and there creators: Bungie. I am also currently Ranked 2000 in the world at Halo my GamerTag is DemonElvis so check me out and send me a message if any of you Modern Warfare noobs want to Trash-Talk me.
All-in-all, this game is thoroughly enjoyable. It's nice having the Arbiter's help against the Brutes, the Flood, and anything else that the Covenant can throw at you. The only thing I missed was Cortana's voice inside my head, giving me advice on what the heck to do next, since she'd been previously captured.
In this game, unlike previous outings, the Flood became not just terrifying, but truly nauseating. Watching them digest and mutate my Master Chief's dead comrades to rise back up and fight against me was a disgusting stroke of genius on Bungie's part. And yes, the grunts are still funny as hell.
