Brief synopsis of Halo 3

The epic saga continues with Halo 3, the hugely anticipated third chapter in the highly successful and critically acclaimed Halo franchise. Master Chief returns to finish the fight, bringing the epic conflict between the Covenant, the Flood, and the entire human race to a dramatic, pulse-pounding climax.

Taking full advantage of the power of Xbox 360, Halo 3 expands on everything that has made the Halo franchise great, adding a wealth of graphical, technical and gameplay advancements, as well as offering a whole new level of online gameplay.

Boooooooring! Played for a couple of hours...if you count the 2 hour nap i had! This is like the other 2...get the first one cheap and just play it again and you have the feel of Halo 3. Rent Bioshock instead and have some real fun!

Rated - 1 starWouldn't Load!!!

A customer from Swindon , 07/12/2007

The game started and I could browse the menu etc but it gets to 29% and failed to load content so I couldn't start any campaign or solo games!!! Tried it on my 360 (white) and Elite, same on both! swapped HDD's about too... no dice.

Couldn't play the game so it gets a poor review from me.

Rated - 5 starsGame of the Year!

A customer from Staffordshire , 27/09/2007

This is a fantastic game to say the least. The use of action packed game play and adrenalin pumping music really gives you what you need to have fun in a game. For those fans of previous games from the Halo franchise this game includes all the fun online and offline the last two did with some excellent additions to refresh the experience.

The storyline runs for around about the same amount of time those of Halo 1 and 2 and leaves no disappointments when you venture to the end. Featuring stunning AI and sheer brilliant online capabilities this game is a must have for any Xbox 360 owner.

All in all this game lived up to the hype its well known for. I would gladly recommend this game to anyone with an Xbox 360 and finish by saying this is a must have for the Xbox 360 platform.

In response to the comment titled 'it aint out at time of writing...' There was a Beta available to everyone with Xbox Live at the given date so Halo 3 has been played and experienced before release so please don’t ignore the comments posted before release.

Rated - 1 starAwfull Stay away

A customer from Scotland , 29/10/2007

Really bad game, stay away, no change from the first two games. the first one was great, since then it has gone downhill. Do not waste your cash. The online play is awfull no better graphics from the first two. A total shock as it should have been made better for hd ect and the 360`s hardware. Dont even bother. Single player is very short and easy only about 7 hours of gameplay. 2/10

Rated - 2 starsNot What I Expected !

Crypticgrifter from Northampton [Highly rated reviewer] , 01/01/2008

I had played the original Halo game on the X-Box and was, to be fair, not overly impressed so I gave up on the franchise and didn't bother with Halo 2. I have never been a big fan of first person shooters, been more of a driving game fan, until recently I discovered Call Of Duty 4 which I think is one of the best games I have played since I started gaming about 20 year ago. After this great game I thought I would give Halo another chance so I rented Halo 3 after all the hype it received claiming to be the best game of 2007. What a load of old cobblers. The gameplay is dark, slow, boring and more importantly it pales in comparison to COD4. I will not be revsiting the Halo franchise but do want to say, bring on COD5
