 - It is time to save the universe--AGAIN!If I had to evaluate Halo3 just on Campaign mode then it would be 2 stars. I don't think anyone buys games anymore for how well they do single player play. Now it is all about multiplayer. Halo3, multiplayer, introduces so many awesome new things that it is really difficult to list them all. The standard gameplay if you just jump into matchmaking has not, so far, been completely dominated by the sniper rifle. I don't think I've been sniped more than a few times in several hours of gameplay. That is a HUGE departure from Halo2 where you could be virtually guaranteed getting sniped several times per game. Personally i think it is too easy to shoot players off the mongoose but I suppose everyone has their own preference. I'm just glad that the sniper rifle seems to have been leveled out--it had completely overwhelmed nearly every map on Halo2. The addition of the Forge and of Theater are almost too good to believe. Theater, with some practice, lets you make VERY high quality movies of the action in your past several games. You can do all kinds of neat tricks with this. The main limitation is that I don't currently see a way to export video off Live and on to the computer. I know people can do it but it isn't a built-in function. Overall, really impressed. Nice work Bungie. Rating:  - HaloGame purchased for my son...it was a long wanted game so must be okay. He gave it the five stars. Rating: - Awesome GameI am a Halo fan and i thought Halo 2 could not be beaten. I was right, in some ways. First off, Halo 3 has a good story mode, but not as good as Halo 2. Halo 3 does however have a better multiplayer. For example Halo 3 has more maps and they are more fun. Also Halo 3 has forge. Forge is heck of fun because you can customize your own maps. You have never been able to do that on any previous Halo games. This game is a lot of money, but it is worth every cent. Multiplayer- 5 stars Story Mode- 4 stars Fun- 5 stars Overall- Unbeatable Rating: - Cleans up Halo 2's mistakesI loved Halo 2's co-op features,but I thought that the missions were terrible!The missions where you were elites were just agony!But Halo 3 is such a large step up in TONS of way,such as,the co-op maps are a lot more fun,complex,and just plain better than Halo 2,the missions are so much better I can't name all of the improvements,but I will anyway.My favorite thing about co-op missions is to ride in a vehicle,my brother drives,while I operate the turret and wipe out all enemies in our path.I beat the game on all levels of difficulty and still haven't gotten tired of the game,I play it every time I go down to my neighbors house(which is quite often)and we enjoy every minute of it,whether it be shotguns,energy swords,or rocket launcher(all of which are my favorites)it's always a blast.Halo 3 is my favorite Xbox 360 game and I can't wait till Halo Wars comes out(I love RPG's)(role playing games). Rating:  - not that funmaybe its just me, but i found halo 3 to be a little cheesey and weird. keep in mind that i have not played the other 2. alot of the weapons were lame and half the time, i couldnt see where i was in the game. much of it is darkly lit or hard to see. overall, there are better shoot-'em-up games out there.
