It is a good game, the story is above average for a shooter, the multiplayer is great when you are bored of game like CoD and the graphics are decent.

Halo is really the only game on consoles in the past 10 years that stands the test of time. When fad games like COD, Gears, etc become popular then fade away, Halo will always continue to shine. I was addicted to COD4, then it got repetitive and boring (didnt stand the test of time), me and many others went back to Halo 3 and were hooked again. Its the ultimate online multiplayer game. Its more than just shooting. Hell, you can even play zombies and a form of rugby (grifball) in Halo 3!
Halo 3 is the best shooter for the xbox 360. call of duty is for people who are good at throwing random grenades and camping. pretty much no skill. Its a good game, but I think they could have done better with map design and graphics. But for sure the best shooter online for the 360
Halo 3 is awesome, I've played thru it several times and still have fun with it. Other game's get way to boring after just one play thru.
Imo Halo 3 is garbage and has the worst xbl community also.

I don't agree with the first part but the second part i completely agree. To me it wasn't a disappointment but the community really ruined it for me.

Everyone plays Halo 3... Not just the kids. Its been the number 1 played online game on the 360 for the past 2 years straight, the community is pretty much the whole Xbox Live community.............

Guess i dislike the teamkilling,hitting you to take your shield down but not kill you,racist,and i never said only kids play it. I don't care if you're 12 or 50 if you're immature you're immature.

The only games you named were shooters.....There are plenty of other console games that "stand the test of time." Its just hard for shooters to do so cuz they're all pretty similar. However you look at it, ur just some guy with a gun, shooting some aliens.In my opinion Halo 3 is still one of the best games out there after what, 2 years. I mean people think the gameplay is old but its great in my opinion and they also say the graphics also suck but they impressive to me. So is halo a dissapointment or not?THEMAN294Dissapointment? To some it is, to some it isn't..depends on what you expect from it really, personally I felt like it was a excellent game...was it perfect? Nope, but still one of the best games for the 360.
The Halo series are what made mebuy an original Xbox on launch and the same with the 360.Since bought 2nd xbox and resold and my now 2nd 360 Pro.-all to mainly play Halo.
I'm replaying on campaign Heroic on Halo 3 at moment and just love the game!

However you look at any videogame, they are simply forms of entertainment, gaing nothing productive from life

the people that usually go 5 kills and 15+ deaths each game hate on it...
Awesome game... only a few people would call it a disappointment... it's still the most popular Live game out there (at least, I think so -- could be wrong)... I might come back to the MP someday :)kreutz3r
its been for 2 years straight, with 1 billion games played. When new releases like L4d, Gears 2, COD4 and COD:WAW, etc came out, Halo 3 was still the most played game
Peronally i cant stand playing halo. I hate the little kids talking crap and having to shoot someone 40 times to kill them. this is also because i am terrible at halo, and it really comes down to personal opinion and preference. Im not one for aliens and lasers..
Halo was alright about weapons. The only thing I hate in Halo is the damn rocket launchers having such insanely hard to avoid splash damages. Rocket matches used to piss me off. It was like a 'who is the cheapest bastard player' contest all match, I would much rather play a Shotty snipe or BR match with my time.Peronally i cant stand playing halo.

Go for the highest position. That's what i do and most people just run towards you without thinking.

Really now? You are the type of player that makes people hate on Halo3. Did you see what you did there Krp008? You just made a fool of yourself. "Oh lordy!!! Sumbody doesn't worship the Halo franchise!!!! they must suck!!!!! No one who is good at gaems can hate halo!!!" I did just fine in Halo, my K/D was always solid and I was only ever really smashed in a match when lag set in. I dislike Halo3 because the community was overcompetitive, trash talking, unintelligent idiots who make everything into a pissing contest. You couldn't go six seconds in Halo3 without someone bringing up stats. Similar to you Krp008. You are just as bad as the Halo3 community I remember. Thus reminding me to never go back to the crap game.[QUOTE="phynixblack"][QUOTE="olsen55"]

No such thing as thinking or strategy in the Halo3 I remember so clearly. The entire game revolved around 'which team has the maps power weapons'[QUOTE="krp008"]Really now?

You should just play with friends. There's plenty of cool people to play with you just have to find them. You can also look on Gamespot i've added a few mature gamers that i had lots of fun playing with. I found that group chat or party chat whatever it is eliminates the idiots.

Yeah, but how sad is it that I would absolutely HAVE to resort to shutting out the entire community just to play normally. That's crap to me. There needs to be a bigger leash on the community. I know the first damn thing that I would have done to fix it too. I would take all the stat tracking out of Social playlists. Normal Xp gain. But no stat track. No kill/death. That crap is for Ranked, it needs to be in only ranked.Imo Halo 3 is garbage and has the worst xbl community also.

I can agree that the community can be pretty bad, I usually mute all the players because the crying, yelling and immature little kids piss me off. Hehe....
Halo 3 requires finding a good party and hanging with them while matchmaking that makes it fun for me, the right people, right time, right place. lol

Actually call of duty world at war is 1st place get your facts straight.no its very good game but its not the best CTR360It's up there with the best shooters on the 360, also people consider halo 3 to be the most complete shooter you can watch your best kills over and over its a very fun game to play and halo 3 lived up to the hype for me,especially 4 player co-op it was a blast.
Yeah I like the orange box more. I still like halo 3 I still play it every once in a while. Heck right now I playing it a lot.For me yes it was...or maybe it was bad timing, played Bioshock few weeks before halo 3 came out. Didnt like it that much, traded it for the orange box.

Got mythic map pack day it came out (Halo Wars Limited Edition) and all I can do right now is mess around in Sandbox. Halo 3 is epic.
i think it has the best multiplayer experience, i live in a country with crappy internet but still get 5/6 bars while playing halo and an occaisional 4/6 bar. Unlike CoD games it's quite tolerable....and i loove the BR, cant ever satisfy my hunger for a good 4 shot
