Halo 3 Review - IGN.com

 

"Clearly Bungie was listening to the criticisms of Halo 2. Not only is Chief in the driver's seat once more, but the environments are varied enough that each level feels distinct. Though you will still need to backtrack in a few areas, it's not as tedious as in previous iterations. The level's in Halo 3 lend to spectacular pacing that weaves from close-quarters, intense battles with Chief and a few soldiers, to more epic arenas. It does feel as if the marine presence is lighter than it should be, but there's enough chaos in the field to at least make it appear as if Master Chief is part of something grander."

"First off, let us just say that we can't go into any details about the plotline of Halo 3's 11-18 hour (depending on your skill level) single-player campaign, and honestly we don't want to. After the somewhat disappointing cliffhanger delivered by Halo 2, we were concerned that developer Bungie wouldn't be able to wrap up the fragmented chronicles of Master Chief. So, while playing through Halo 3 for the first time on Heroic difficulty, we paid special attention to the story."

"It's the final chapter in the trilogy and it ties up all the loose ends quite nicely. Or does it? That's something you're going to have to find out for yourself (or watch on YouTube) as Microsoft has banned anyone from talking about anything to do with the story so's not to spoil it for you. Bless 'em."

 

Halo 3 Review (XB360) - GameDaily.com

 

"Armed with a $10 million marketing campaign, Halo 3 aims to dominate the Xbox 360, and the world. The first-person shooter's main protagonist, the green-suited Master Chief, appears on everything from magazine covers to Mountain Dew. Halo 3 is arguably the biggest video game release in history, but unlike so many pretenders, this one largely lives up to the hype."

"Regardless of how you felt about its cliffhanger ending, there's no denying that Halo 2 was a gigantic success that raised the bar for what we, as a game-playing society, expect out of a good console-based first-person shooter. In the years that followed, plenty of games attempted to duplicate the Halo formula, with varying degrees of success. But there's still nothing quite like the genuine item. Luckily for all involved, Halo 3 is a positively amazing package that offers extreme satisfaction across all of its different parts. Maybe now you can finally retire your Halo 2 disc and really move into the next generation of games."

 

Which will happen first, Halo 3 for the PC or the original xbox?!?

MIT geeks pull Halo 3 prank

 

"A group of creative and rather talented pranksters with way too much time on their hands turned a statue of John Harvard into Halo's Master Chief. According to MIT's The Tech, a helmet, labeled "Master Chief in training" was placed on the unsuspecting statue's head, an assault rifle into its right hand and a beaver emblem on the right shoulder."
