Halo 3 builds upon the concepts of Halo 2 in ways that you'd expect, but there are also new modes and options that send the series in exciting new directions.

Of course, not every mystery of the Halo universe is answered, but it does look like the next game is moving in a very interesting direction. Until next time, Chief!

It's obvious that Halo 3 is about satisfying the community that has been built since 2001 on as many levels as possible.

It goes without saying that Halo 3 deserves to be in your collection of 360 titles. It IS one of those genre-defining games, even though it has some things working against it.

There will be plenty of aspects for fans to nitpick, but it's hard to argue against Halo 3 as the most complete game available on any console.

It's solid gameplay, immense replayability, online functionality, and incredible production values will ensure its place in video game history, and it is, without a doubt, a satisfying and fulfilling close to the beloved trilogy[?].

Halo 3 still can't quite escape the category of flawed masterpiece - but this time around, the flaws are so minor that even the most churlish of reviewers would be hard pressed to mark the game down.

Gamer 2.0
Instead, we have a flawed game that doesn’t fully deliver, but still rocks some of the best multiplayer ever invented. We know you’ll probably buy it anyway, so you might as well go find out for yourself.

Better story with a non-hateful ending; dozens of excellent new weapons (Brute Hammer), vehicles (Hornet) and features (Forge, Theater); four-player online co-op.

There is absolutely no way any Halo fan will be disappointed by this game. You better believe the Chief has triumphantly returned. Now buy the game, cock the Assault Rifle, and finish the fight.

While eagerly awaiting my review copy of HALO 3, I played some more of HALO 2 to get me pumped and ready for the third and presumably final installment of the storyline (I know, HALO Wars comes out next year, but it probably will have nothing to do with

Sometimes hype is a bad thing, sometimes it is a great thing. In the case of the blockbuster hit Halo 3 it was a very good thing. Screaming past all previous video game records Bungie’s Halo 3 for the Xbox 360 had enormous copies of it preordered and on

You have to be more mentally challenged than the average bloke to deny the important role the Halo franchise has played for Microsoft and its Xbox consoles. As one of the most played online games ever on Xbox Live,

Well, it's here... the fight is finally finished and the fat lady has sung. Quite possibly the biggest, most incredibly hyped "3" in videogame history (besides the legendary Super Mario Bros. 3) has arrived and it was indeed entirely worth the wait. Halo

Ever since the rushed Halo 2 left us hanging with an infuriatingly unsatisfying ending three years ago, gamers have been dying to see the end of this trilogy from Bungie and Microsoft. The game that built the Xbox has come a long way since the first one

Halo is popular: ridiculously popular. With the exception of iconoclastic naysayers who accuse anyone who likes fun of being a Ritalin-popping simpleton, people like Halo.

Halo 1 had us toting toaster-oven-sized Xboxes & TV’s to our friend’s houses, and screaming back and forth between rooms. Halo 2 let us do the same, without all the luggage (and without pants on) thanks to Xbox Live. Now the third installment in

Bungie has insisted for years that the final chapter in the Halo franchise was going to be the game the developer always wanted to make. From refined combat and great graphics to a map-editing tool and robust online features, this was going to be the

I've been sitting here for two hours now trying to figure out how, exactly, to write this. I've started four different reviews, and scrapped them all after one page. The fact of the matter is, Halo 3 is unlike any other game I've ever played or reviewed.

You'd be forgiven for mistaking Bungie Studios as one-hit wonders. Due to the avalanche of popularity behind the Halo series, it's quite easy to disregard some of their other cult hits; the Myth series, for example, and of course, Marathon. But if

Is there any point in trying to keep our emotions in check for this Halo 3 review? Should we start by trying to remind ourselves of the series genesis with Halo: Combat Evolved on the Xbox console and how it redefined the console shooter? Perhaps then

It’s hard to imagine the fate of Microsoft’s videogames adventure without Master Chief. Consoles tend to struggle without great launch titles and the original Xbox had one of the best. Halo: Combat Evolved gave the platform real momentum and set a new
