Halo 3 is a gaming experience that should not be missed.

User Rating: 10 | Halo 3 X360
After approximately 11hours of straight gameplay, I have completed Halo 3. By completing it I mean the campaign of course. I completed it in normal mode but will attempt the other modes later on. All I can say is wow. After all the anticipation, it was worth waiting for.

First of all, the story is very well told. Great characters, great gameplay, and great voice overs. As you play you feel somewhat connected to the characters and it usually leaves you wondering what will happen next.

The graphics look spectacular. From textures to explosions, the game looks fantastic. Fire looks real, explosions are awesome to see, real-time reflections look great, realistic lightitng and shadowing, and the textures are simply gorgeous.

The audio is great, too. Gun fire, voice overs, and explosions all sound great. The audio from the covenant is somewhat humorous as well.

Overall, Halo 3 is a gaming experience that shouldn't be missed. The creators really took advantage of the XBOX 360s capabilities to make Halo 3 a visual masterpiece and the story is spectacular.
