    Around the time the Halo franchise came out back in the Day, I had bought a basic graphics card to play Soldier of Fortune. I remember seeing headshots have multiple ways to deform the face, Blowing limbs away with shotguns. I remember playing it on a Network with the guy next door where throatshots were the new headshot. After a tiny delay, I would heard my friend's speaker choking.Around the time the Halo franchise came out back in the Day, I had bought a basic graphics card to play Soldier of Fortune.

    Halo was and is, the grimmest of all the shooters even going back to those days. So bland, so boring, so utterly devoid of enjoyment that now I have the master collection and to be honest, I want to play soldier of fortune.

    The PC version runs like smooth butter, and skippable cutscenes are there for you.    … Expand

    Fun Halo game it's certainly not the best. Biggest problem is there is no elite to play against and de brutes just not as fun to play against,. A second problem is the flood They also not fun to play against And it's just kind of takes the whole experience Downs I mean still fun it's a Halo game but it could be so much more .

    The new HUD, original/classic (Halo 2) guns but can't shoot when zoomed. No head bobbing. Dual wield, but different/worse than Halo 2. No healthbar, no sprinting. Back to 2 grenades of each type. Some new equipment/tech gear, similar to Reach's powerups. Powerups don't seem well designed; I hardly ever get to use them. Bad/strong bloom lighting. 7/10.

    Halo 3 sigue la filosofía del "más es mejor"y se dedica a expandir sobre la base del 2 sin grandes revoluciones. Más armas, siendo especialmente interesantes las armas más pesadas así como la posibilidad de usar dos a la vez; más variedad de enemigos, algunos de ellos relativamente originales y otros más previsibles; la posibilidad de usar un gadget que llevamos con nosotros comoHalo 3 sigue la filosofía del "más es mejor"y se dedica a expandir sobre la base del 2 sin grandes revoluciones. Más armas, siendo especialmente interesantes las armas más pesadas así como la posibilidad de usar dos a la vez; más variedad de enemigos, algunos de ellos relativamente originales y otros más previsibles; la posibilidad de usar un gadget que llevamos con nosotros como consumible para obtener ciertas mejoras temporales; mayor número de vehículos, algunos interesantes otros más bien redundantes. Y poco más. Donde si que se queda corto es en la historia, pues creo que la del 2 está mejor contada y es más interesante, siendo el 3 la continuación directa del 2 aunque con un extraño salto entre medias.

    A nivel gráfico y de sonido, se nota que es el primero de la colección que no ha sido rehecho, de modo que es el que peor aspecto técnico tiene en todas las dimensiones. Gráficamente hoy en día es flojo, el sonido pierde mucha contundencia, etc. Es comprensible ya que es un juego con una década a sus espaldas, pero eso se nota, especialmente tras jugar al 1 y 2 rehechos.

    El resultado de todo ello es un shooter correcto, entretenido, que continúa la historia. No es increíble ni revolucionario, pero si te gusta el mundillo y su historia está bien. Un 6,5.    … Expand

    Boasting beautiful, detailed graphics, numerous high-powered weapons, and an uncapped frame rate, Halo 3 is easily the best game released in the Master Chief Collection.

    Finally Halo 3 is remastered in all it's glory. It's age showing, but not holding it back, not for a second. Halo is home again.
