After playing this game casually, I am getting the 3 flashing red lights
finally. So Gears of War froze my 360, Halo3 finished it. Back to the
repair shop. Can't give an all around opinion because I only started playing Halo3. 360 is too weak to handle high def and demanding games.
Just got back a new 360, a different one from the one I sent in for repair. Let's hope it lasts. Game is rather short, my kids finished the
easy level in an afternoon.
Without a doubt

I originally bought this game for my son. Him leaving the game on and going out with his friends was the biggest mistake of his young life. I started to play and now I'm hooked!
HALO 3 IS AWESOME!!!

This game has it all. The graphics are crisp and clear. The overall experience for Halo 3 is intense. Must have for the XBOX/XBOX 360 fan, gamer. Stunning conclusion to the entire HALO TRILOGY. Can't wait for Halo Wars coming out soon.
Overall, its a pretty good game. worth buying

Halo 3 is a good game mostly for the multiplayer. The campaign was a major dispointment because it was too fast, sure you can go back to get the skulls, some acheivements, but the campaign is really only to do to get it over with. As for the Multiplayer, its really good. you can play a lot of games including team slayer, team doubles, oddball, infection, etc. You can talk to ohther people through the headset and it is one hell of an experience. The same goes for Custom Games, you can play with your friends online on maps that dont have to be on matchmaking and you can invite whoever you want. Forge was a cool addition because you can edit your maps into anything you want and place the weapons and objects wherever you want! And on Theater, you can watch back you fights, take pictures of amazing kills or something amusing, and record clips of anything! Overall, i can play Halo 3 for a long time and its something worth having.
Its great

This game has and continues to provide hours of entertainment for friends, family and I. I wish they could have done better with the graphics though.
Yes the hype is true!

I don't really know what else to say about Halo 3 that you didn't hear 6 months before it was released. Yes, it is an awesome game. Yes, it finishes a great story. Yes, the game play is phenominal. Yes, the graphics kick butt. Yes, the multiplayer is insane. Yes...yes...yes...just buy it already. Seriously, it is an awesome game and a must own for the 360. My only complaint was that it was too easy. Even on "Legendary" difficulty I found "Realistic" on Rainbow Six: Vegas and Hardcore/Insane on Gears of War much more challenging. Your results may vary, but that's just my opinion.
Oooh, Halo 3 That! Review News.

Halo is an incredible franchise, but it does lack somewhat in the aspect of humor. There are funny moments, but not a single mention of Chinese kids, bees having heart attacks, or Twiggy's dance club. Karl Pilkington, please come back to podcasting.
Not so original, but perfectly executed

Halo 3 is not the most original game ever. The story is so-so and predictable. Many of the multiplayer options have been seen before (Golden eye, Perfect Dark N64). But what this game lacks in originallity it makes up for big time in execution. Multiplayer (Matchmaking) is well done and "fair". You almost always play versus a team of comparable ability (how well you play is another story...). The theater mode and file sharing modes let you share favorite real moments and pictures. Forge lets you design your own game and entertain yourself at the same time (the awesome variant "Grif Ball" was invented and created out of the Forge mode). This game will be noted in history for having the complete campain and multiplayer platform and will long be the standard bearer for future games. In short, I don't think this game does anything original nor is it perfectly executed, but wins the all-around with very high marks. For example, GOW I find to be much more playable in multiplayer mode (fun) but the GOW matchmaking is lacking compared to Halo 3 which detracts from the experience.
Great game for Hotseat too!

I play this game with some buddies when we get together. It is a lot of fun, but it helps if you are all the same skill level. This is a definite improvement over the second game.
Also, as pertaining to the First Person Shooter market in general, Halo 3 is much less "gritty" and realistic. I enjoy this aspect.
