You just know Halo 3 will be the first 11 out of 10 in OXM.

In the Official Xbox Magazine there are all the ratings there they give and they give numbers 1 to 11. 10 is perfect and 11 reads: "The unicorn. Will never happen, never." You just know that the only reason the 11 is there is because their waiting to give it to Halo 3. It has been there from as far back as I subscribed to the magazine 2 years ago and the first time I saw it, I said: "yeah, that's there for Halo 3."

That's exactly what I thought...why would they put a level that's unreachable though? If they say it will NEVER happen...

Halo 3 won't get an 11, hell it won't get a 10. It'll be a great game no doubt but it'll get a 9.5 max.

You can't put anything past the Halo series. I don't really like the Halo series at all but there is such a huge following for that game, it's almost like all the little fanboys will put a gun to OXM if they don't give it an 11.

Just like all the Nintendo fanboys whining when Zelda (rightfully so) got a score under 9.

Hope, The unicorn will never happen. Halo3 could get a 10, but I dont' think it will. GTAIV and Mass Effect will have a better shot at 10+

I think this time critics will score it properly and not because it's Halo like last time (i'm looking at you gamespot). And there's no way this game should get a perfect score from anyone. These are nowhere near the best graphics we've ever seen so that kills the perfect graphics score right there.

Yep, good job, you just single-handedly proved that everyone who does not support Halo 3 is obviously a PS3 fanboy. Hopefully now we can startkilling the "PS3 fanboys" in your honor.

Are you THAT STUPID?!?!

Well ive played Halflife, Fear and Quake. Never had the privlege to play Stalker though. I loved halflife, liked Quake, but thought FEAR was overatted. Still Halo is better than Halflife 2 IMO.

Halo 3 wont take out the 11 IMO i would be incredibly surprised if it did. The story.. not fun enough. The fact that i can play on my own screen co-op with my buddies is the only thing saving it for me. Its the multiplayer that has the legion of fans behind it. The game itself is a bit dodge.. If halo never had a multiplayer it'd be about a 7 out of 10 IMO

The Halo series has the best feel when it comes to shooting and apart from the random spam waves of PS3 fanboys claiming its just an average game where is they have'nt even seen the cover up close.People saying GoW sucks and that Halo is just an average shooter have bad taste when it comes to fps games as far as I'm concerned.

Seems like it became 'cool' to dislike the Halo series and try to actually look like an individual instead of being part of a herd.

I think Halo is fun...nothing spectacular like others make it out to be. I don't think those people suck or are stupid for thinking it's the greatest thing since sliced bread, but it's just not something I would call amazing, like I said though, when I do play with a buddy at their house or something, I have fun, but I wouldn't pick it up and say, "let's play this." I've thought that since 2005 by the way, so I'm not "being part of a herd." That's just my 2 cents though!

Rather then giving my opinion on the Halo series, I'll just say this. No game, and I mean no game deserves a perfect score, let a lone a beyond perfect score. I think it's hype and hype alone that causes reviewers to give games a perfect score, but to give a beyond perfect score would just be laughable.

I don't know about an 11, but Halo 3 will be an amazing game, anyone saying otherwise is because they have recently played Halo, and not when it came out. And why is this a problem? Because every single shooter has adopted Halo's gameplay in many forms. But Halo 3 will again rise the bar for shooters, and again, will stop feeling "genereric", as some feel about H2 right now. Again, this "generic shooter" feeling on Halo is because most diciplines on Halo has been used in most shooters nowadays. Even GoW has many gameplay features Halo add in first (not rying to battle Halo vs GoW, GoW is awsome in its own right).

Please, just wait and see, how equipment changes battles in campaing, how 4 player CoOp wil have you partying with your friends whole nights, how FORGE will turn the game in one that has endless possibilities, how save films will have you, and many others plugged in watching how YOU scored a Killtacular with a Shotgun againts ghosts and scorpion tanks. Yes, wait my friends, wait for the massive, yes MASSIVE, battles on Halo 3. And I am not talking 10 AIs at a given time, neither 20, I am talking +50. Bungie has comfirmed it on EGM, so I am not lying.

Yes, I am a fanboy, like +2 million that belong to the Halo Nation. And why is the community so big? Because Halo, is just that, Halo.
