Highly awaited Game-Will Not DisappointReview created: 07/18/06

As most people say, Halo is what makes XBOX Popular. I disagree with this statement, but thats a whole different topic. Halo 3 is the most anticipated game for the XBOX 360. Many people held off to get an XBOX 360 until this November to get their hands on a copy of Halo 3. With this in mind, there is HUGE pressure on these authors, game designers, game engineers, managers, and Microsoft. With all this pressure on them to build not just a good game but a 'Freakingly Amazing FPS Game that will blow your socks off game of the year' these individuals are going to make the best freaking game you've ever played. Plus it has the Halo name on it too, so you know somewhat to expect, but there are going to be many additional features that is going to be put into this game.
Lets remember back to before Halo 2 was going to be released, this game was one of the best selling games to date. On its launch it sold MILLIONS of copies. Thats how big the anticipation was, and the only real difference between Halo 1 and Halo 2 is: new guns, new levels, new campaign, and XBOX Live. Thats 4 things, thats nothing. When making Halo 2 they knew that they would be making not just Halo 2, but they could forsee the launch of Halo 3 too. With this in mind, they didn't go overboard on making Halo 2, they only added in the necessary features to make Halo 2 a success, and have customers coming back to buy Halo 3, three years later.
Halo 2 was mainly used to get XBOX Live really going smoothly. Honestly, how many people actually played XBOX on the internet before Halo 2 came out? Not many people, there are tons more people playing xbox live now and thats soley because of Halo 2.
Additionally since Halo 3 is going to be the final chapter in the Halo trilligy its going to finish strong, and its going to finish on a great note. I guarantee that this game will be the Game of the Year, and people will be playing this game long after the life of the XBOX 360.
Only people who have never experienced the action of Halo say this guide is not helpful.

Halo 3 - The game every XBOX 360 owner should have29 of 43 people found this review helpful.
Graphics: Breathtaking 9.5/10
The graphics great. The rumors of an upgraded Halo 2, or Halo 2 like graphics is not true. With smooth framerates and stunning effects, you will be taken aback. Take some time to watch the backgrounds and environments and the detail of that went into these levels. This is after you clear everything that moves.
Sound: Amazing – 10/10
The sounds, music, effects, and voices take you immediately into the game. Surround sound is a must so you can hear the shots, shouts, and footsteps of the your opponents in this game. The score for this game heightens you senses, and truly brings you into the game.
Gameplay: Spectacular – 9/10
Smooth animations, large levels, smart enemies and A.I., big battles, and 4-player co-op = awesome. Without giving anything away, this is some great storytelling that gives way to some genuine wow moments.
Replay Value – Amazing 10/10
Multiplayer. That is all I have to say. This game has high replay value. Choose which way you would like to play online, but with the achievements, future downloadable content, 4-player co-op, and with over 1 million copies pre-ordered, and 4 million copies on retailers shelves in the first week, there will always be someone to play with.
Overall – Perfect 9.5/10
I am a fan of First-Person-Shooters (FPS) and all that is associated with them. I enjoy the emersion, and critique them heavily. This game allows you to “finish the fight”, but this game is so much more. The campaign brings closure, but it is the multiplayer aspect that will revolutionize XBOX Live and online gaming as we know it.
Halo 3 is Bungie’s 3-year project and baby, with unlimited resources from Microsoft, that was made to send Microsoft’s XBOX 360 to the next level, and it was worth the wait and money. With over 1 million pre-orders, this epic tale concludes with the highest pre-orders of a game to date. This game in campaign feels, and plays near perfect, and allows veterans and newcomers alike to enjoy and truly experience this game. The story line finishes up the previous two games, and is just long enough to make it feel right, and not dragged out. It took approximately 8.5 hours to beat it on legendary difficulty. It may be a bit shorter, though this was played immediately after a midnight sale of this game. The co-op was well done, and creates a new feel for campaign FPS games. I look forward to the future where this will be the standard in playing games.
The online is well done. Halo 3 has once again set the standard of what an online matchmaking/playing system should be. Putting together fun maps, objectives, and customizable Advatars, this game will appeal to the “newbie”, as well as the everyday online Halo player. With the Halo 2 system being overhauled, and the Bungie stat-tracker updated, this game will quickly become the number one game on XBOX Live.
I could write a five page review on this game, the battles, the enemies, weapons, and AI, but it still would not do it justice. If you have an XBOX 360, you should buy this, and buy it now. If you have thought about getting an XBOX 360, this would be the reason to get one. Does it live up to the hype? I don’t think anything could have lived up to the hype that is game received. This game was praised as the second coming, but what it is one of the best games of 2007, and is beautiful and fun to play.

Must have game for Xbox 360.Buy this game. Plain and Simple. This game online is incredible. The Story is great, and the modes will keep you busy for weeks with the different difficulties, skulls, forge, and theater to save your favorite moments. Get the game.

Halo 3Halo is one of the best games to hit xbox 360. It has tons a replay value and will probably go down as one of the best video games of all time, especially on Xbox Live. I traded my first copy in about a month ago, realized I made a mistake and had to go out and get another. The game I got on Ebay is in perfect condition I am never go back to game store to buy overpriced games again.

An excellent addition to the halo trilogyThis game brings a whole new meaning to halo. Not only can you edit and create your own maps in forge mode but you can play them online with your friends. No need to go to a friend's house to play halo, just play online.
With lots of amazing levels and new vehicles it's hard to get bored while playing this game.
My favorite new vehicle is the hornet which is similar to a helicopter since it has the ability to hover in mid air and use heat-seeking missiles (and machine gun) to destroy your opponent. The only thing I don't like about halo 3 is that the banshee is terrible when compared to the hornet, and the banshee from halo 2. The halo 3 banshee does not have the fire power like it used to have and it is significantly slower! You can fall through the air faster then you can fly while going straight down!
All in all, it is an amazing game experience that is always changing because of online play.

Good gameGood game, but too short. I would have liked a few more levels. To really get the most out of the game it need to be played online. If you want a good offline shooter then get bioshock. Your experience would not be tarnished if this game was only played online, and the offline campaign was never touched.

Free PS3 No Joke I Did it and I was SkepticalReview created: 08/22/08
by:
Get one for FREE!!! Have a look at this video first:
http://www.youtube.com/wa
Just take 2 minutes and read this. This is very EASY to do! It
literally takes 10 minutes to setup. Simply follow the steps below. I
promise you, this is 100% real. I wouldn't jeopardize my eBay account
status if this was a scam. My feedback is real and I will answer you
on any question! Here is what you do. Click on the link below,
register, pick an account type (referral is the easiest) and complete
just 1 offer (Very important that you complete the 1 offer otherwise
your account will sit in limbo until you do).This is not like other
sites where you need to complete one offer on 2 or 3 different
pages!!! And a lot of these offers are FREE trials with nothing else
to buy...No commitments!!!
There are plenty of cool offers to choose from such as Blockbuster
online, Stamp.com, Netflix, Gamefly which are services you would
regularly sign up for anyways and their all secure networks, why not
use them to get a free PS3 System or cash (I did the Posterpass.com and paid only $10 for 4 posters). Look at the offers and choose the one
that works for you. After signing up and completing your one offer,
simply refer 8-13 people (depending on the FREE prize you choose) to
do the same under your link (just post the same thing as I have on
eBay, and you'll get your referrals before the auction even ends.)
Then they will ship your PS3 System or your selected item for free, I
chose the PS3 80gb System. No Joke, 100% REAL!!! The reason these
companies make money, is because most people don't bother getting all
the referrals. All you have to do is post it on EBAY! They use us as
advertisement by word of mouth which saves them tons of money which
goes toward yours and my free gift. These are legit companies such as
Blockbuster, Netflix, Gamefly etc... You can copy my listing if you
want. You must use your own authentic link though. You will get your
own personal link after your orders placed.
Step 1: Click this link: http://www.YourPS34free.com/in
Step 2: Sign up and chose an account type (Referral is the easiest and
best).
Step 3: Complete just 1 offer (like Blockbuster or Stamps.com) and

ad).
Step 4: Receive your PS3 System for FREE!!!!!!!!!! (Even The Shipping
Is Free!!!)

The game was ordered and given to my great-nephew. He was thrilled with the gift! I also purchased through eBay an xBox 360 for him but the item did not work properly and was returned. So far the Seller has not reimbursed me for my original price through PayPal but, hopefully, I will get a refund soon. Dealings with both Sellers has been acceptable. Thank you.
