I do think it's awesome. But I went back to it recently after not playing it for a while and got bored fairly quickly. I've had a lot of fun with Halo 3 but I'll never spend as much time on it as I used to.

The game is AAA for a reason. Since there are like six new maps coming, it will continue to be one of the most played fps ever. And highest selling.

Its good, but its no where near as good as gears 1 or 2.

Its a shooter that was pretty good but now COD4 and other games have done better imo.

I believe it's still the best competitive multiplayer experience on the 360. More than any other shooter, it's just plain fun with a good group of people.

Yeah, I agree. Some people say COD4 is better, but with features like Forge, and Theater I don't know how they could say that.

Simply put, it's just a fine, fine example of doing this gen right - Bungie really delivered the gaming goodness in almost all aspects of the game so yes, Halo 3 is awesome IMHO.

That's just opinions about the game. But imo it's the best 60euros I've spent on a shooter this gen.

I'm not some Halo freak, heck I'm not really a Halo player....so my statement might sound a bit off but when I played Halo 3 for the first time it felt exactly like Halo 2.

Got a been there done that feeling.

See this may sound strange but I enjoyed the single player but HATED the online play.  I just think its really slow and hate to have to shoot people 10956237 times to kill them.  I just think the online portion was so big because most people didnt play PC FPS's.  People didnt know any better.

If you shoot more than 5 times with the BR or use more than a clip on any weapon downing an enemy, you need to aim more for the head.

I thought the formula for halo was good during halo 1, the rest were just kind of drab, more into call of duty series since i started with mohaa, then to cod 1, 2, on pc then 4 on ps3, so i might be a bit biased.

To be honest I think it's the best Halo MP wise. However the competition for Halo 3 on the 360 is too great so I don't play it as much as I did Halo 2 or 1. There are too many good shooters on the 360 to just stick to one. It really wasn't like this on the Xbox.

I have to disagree. I did not enjoy Halo 2's multi. But the first time I got my hands on the Halo3 beta, I played for 7 straight hours. I forgot to eat dinner :|

No, Halo jumped the shark with part 2's lackluster singleplayer campaign. I nevr thought the online was nearly as good as PC multiplayer, and part 3 was same old same old. The main thing Halo is good for is matchmaking and playing with a group of friends. Forge and making custom movies is nice too, as are the co-op options on the campaign. But for me, the Halo Killer was truly Gears of War. Now I find myself wishing every shooter a robust cover system. Here's hoping ODST's stealth elements provide an adequate series reboot for this once great franchise.

And the first Halo is still a great single player experience.

I think the game desverves every 9.5 it gets. It's got a epic, lengthy campaign which can be enjoyed with friends and altered with skulls, it's got a diversive and incredible customizable multiplayer, it's got this nice "gun-feeling" and the shooting and combat is awesome, it's got features like forge and theater and not to forget the matchmaking is one of the best ever. AND! Bungie still releases updates like maps and annual game-modes. Infinity Ward should learn from Bungie on how to take care of their customers.

Great game, but not the greatest. The multiplayer part is really fun, and definately great for the right kind of party. However, the ending was just as unsatisfying as the second Halo, and it just feels like a pathetic attempt to fuel speculation for a sequel.

I still haven't bothered to get online for Halo 3. I played the single campaign and finished it on Legendary mode. I was so angry with the game and relieved to finish it in Legendary that I put it away. That was about 1 year ago. It might be time to go back and checkout the online action.

It's easily the best shooter I've played this gen. Fantastic matchmaking. Forge and theatre put it head and shoulders above the competition. I'll admit, I sorta wish aiming down the sights and sprinting was there. But I can live with out them. I don't need a button dedicated to aiming down the sights in order to aim. I can aim just fine. And I'd take a warthog over sprinting any day.

I was late to the party. Plus, it just never grabbed me. Dunno why. Halo 3, however... Totally different story.

Yes, I think it is. I've read the books, comics, etc... and I got more out of the story than the average gamer.

The campaign for Halo 3 was pretty boring imo. The multiplayer is fun but only when I'm playing with friends. I don't own the game, but if I did, I'd never play it online unless I had someone over to play it with me.

EDIT: In other words, I never thought the game was that awesome to begin with, probably an 8 out of 10, I'd give it.
