Apr 14, 2012Still one of the best first person shooters ever made cant recommend enough sad sony fanboys please grow up and stop writing your retarded misleading reviews i have a 360 and a ps3 and i can safely and there is no fps on ps3 that comes close to the halo games much better then shallow cod. Every real gamer should own this game roll on halo 4.

Dec 3, 2011i bought halo 3 when it was first released in 2007 and thought its was an amazing game the muitplayer was very addciting and the single player was great.
-
Dec 13, 2011In my opinion one of the best franchises of all time, you don't see a lot of video games that start a generation like halo, this is what you get when you take time preparation, a masterpiece.

Dec 22, 2011This game is what I got Xbox for back in 2009. It simply is amazing. I never played Halo 2, but I still like it. The multiplayer isn't overall "fun" or the campaign either, I just played it with my friends and had alot of fun doing that. 9 out of 10.

Jan 6, 2012Awesome game, played hundreds of hours with friends. Kids who rate this lower are fanboys and don't have any friends or just dont like multiplayer games.

Sep 28, 2012This game's multiplayer is still being played to this date. Even Halo Combat evolved's multiplayer is still on, When Bungie makes a game, they build it to last- Unlike a certain FPS franchise. and If you want a mediocre FPS, Go play your crappy Call of Duty. Halo has quality and a good single player AND multiplayer. If this isn't enough for you as a gamer, than you disgust me...

Feb 2, 2013This game is awsome best game I have ever played I see that there are now faults except the story wich was kind of short the multiplayer is amazing although it's annoying how many small kids play it and kinda ruin the experience but other than that it is skimpily awsome
-
Jun 8, 2012The game engine for this game is the apex of years of refinement and will not be improved on. This is due to the fact that they didn't try too hard and kept the core of the Halo story going whilst putting together the single best multiplayer system ever. Thanks Bungie!

Sep 30, 2012is the epic conclusion for a epic story definitely the best sci-fi game story so far (2007) a great campaign and simply the best multiplayer on xbox 360.
-
Nov 2, 2012Series hit is peak here, many thought this would be the last Halo, yeah they all use the same formula, but in what ways can a game like this change and not ruin itself? The campaign was a fun and long sandbox story. The multiplayer is unmatched, I still play it to this day, always fun. Awesome, awesome game.
-
Nov 7, 2012The best game i've played on the Xbox 360 so far. It has a nice campaign, nice multiplayer and the theatre. What more can you ask for? So get out there and finish that fight!
-
Mar 11, 2014Best game of the Xbox 360 generation for sure. Id have to say that It had the best multiplayer in the entire series or even all of gaming. Wish the newer ones were like this

Nov 28, 2012How the **** did this game get a 7.6? This is arguably the best halo ever made. The weapons are well balanced, new creative ideas, great maps, forge is sick and the bubble shield is sweet.

Sep 5, 2013To this day, Halo 3 remains the franchise's best multiplayer experience. The single-player campaign is lengthy, hugely diverse and packed with memorable moments. I feel Halo 3 was as close to perfect as the series will ever get.
-
Mar 18, 2013This was THE game back in the days playing with friends. Bungie with this new game introduced the Forge in which you can create ANYTHING you want and build and play on it. I never got bored with it nor the map packs that came out. Really changed the gaming world.

Nov 7, 2013one of the best xbox 360 games out there this game is extremely well done and deffently worth checking out it is true to the halo name and I cant believe this game has gotten that many User reviews.
-
Nov 11, 2013Halo 3 is an amazing game that I love to come back to again & again to experience the fun campaign & extremely competetive, challenging, & fun multiplayer that I miss about multiplayer games.
-
Nov 24, 2013Halo 3 is a good game for Xbox 360, despite being an old game, from 2007, many people play it, and Campaign mode is nice, and multiplayer mode doesn't disappoint, with several different modes. This game, in my opinion, will still be cited by next years.
-
Nov 28, 2013man the game is now more than 6 years old but it still feels fresh. imho the best fps of the generation, killzone 2,3 and halo reach are awesome but halo 3 is just better
-
Nov 25, 2017First time I played this came through and it's been a decade since it came out. The fact that it amazed me and I found it this enjoyable is a testimony to the sheer quality of the experience.

Jan 10, 2014Halo 3 is my third favorite game of all time because, it is enjoyable experience, its fun to play with your friends, and it has one of the best campaign I've ever seen, so why if you haven't played this game yet. buy it. I still play this game to the date and its still fun to play. oh if you a cod player and you don't like this game, you have no variety.
-
Jan 22, 2014It's by far my favorite Halo game. Don't know why it got so much hate. It's the #1 game of 2007 I still come back to. It never gets old. The ending of the game still impresses me to this day. The story broke no barriers and was consistent. Still hate the level Cortana, though.
-
Sep 9, 2015Definately one of the best games of all time. Campaign gets a 9/10 and multiplayer is 10/10. The only things that aren't perfect is equipment and facial animations.

Dec 9, 2014Halo 3 is the best of the original trilogy in my opinion. The graphics were greatly improved, the story was great and it wasn't overwhelmingly short. I think it took me between 7-9 hours to beat on Hard difficulty.
Verdict:
An awesome way to end the Chief's story... un till Halo 4
10/10 -
Nov 19, 2015Halo 3 cant improve the series, because it cant improve from Halo 2, right? Wrong. Halo 3 improves from Halo 2, by having screenshot sharing, theather mode, where you can watch your matches, forge, where you can make your own maps and an even better multiplayer experience. Halo 3 is a perfect sendoff to the trilogy and totally worth buying.

Jan 1, 2015One of the best video games of all time, and by far the best Xbox 360 game out there. The multiplayer and campaign are both best of the series, but you definitely need to play Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2 before you even touch this game.
-
Sep 18, 2014Halo 3 is the first game that i bought with my first xbox 360. It's my favourite Halo because the campain is really epic and fun to play with friends. Halo 3 is one of the must have on xbox 360.
-
Oct 17, 2014my favorite game ever. Intense campaign, endless multiplayer map editing options, online matchmaking is incredible, and one of the first games to introduce recording your gameplay at all times so you can go back and watch it. just an all around perfect game.
-
Nov 26, 2014anyone who gives this game a low score haven't played a halo game yet best graphics of 2007 mutiplayer was epic story at least a 9.9 i dont like the flood missions
-
Apr 16, 2018One of the best first person shooters of all time. even after 10 years it still can go toe to toe with modern shooters.
-

but this games isn´t the best halo trilogy,The best is a Halo Combat Evolved but is amazing Halo 3 -
Jul 7, 2016Yet another masterpiece from bungie, halo 3 proved to be the conclusion to the halo trilogy that we needed. It's campaign is the best in the series, and makes up for that ending in halo 2, and the multiplayer, by god was it great.
-
Feb 20, 2016ótimo jogo, um dos melhores jogos fps que já joguei, e o segundo melhor halo que já joguei até hoje. o jogo apresenta: uma ótima história, gráficos bons pra época, ótimo multiplayer, esse é um dos únicos jogos que eu conheço que da pra vc salvar de 2 jogadores. sem falar que ele é dublado, isso ajudou muito a entender a história.
-
Apr 23, 2016gran historia, mucha variedad de entornos y misiones, armas equipacion, uno de los halo que mas me gusta, buen control, sorprenden los escenarios espaciales y la batalla final.
-
Jul 7, 2016By far the best online gaming experience I have ever enjoyed. This game in its prime is only rivaled by modern warfare 2. Although Halo 2 is often praised as the best game in the franchise, I found this game to bring the most joy and ENDLESS entertainment. Games like this one deserve an 11.
-
Aug 20, 2016Nota 10 merecido, passei dias jogando com amigos em 4 players, junto com blue dragon ele é o melhor jogo do xbox 360, se quiser conhecer a plataforma compra halo 3

Sep 7, 2016The best game ever made. If this game was a woman; it would have Taylor Swift's singing voice, Sasha Grey's bedroom skills and zooey deschanel's body but with bigger jugs.

Mar 5, 2017Vamos nessa, Halo é um universo surpreendente e fantástico, a saga de seu protagonista Master Chief nos impressiona de tal maneira a fazer com que pensamos em nossa própria vida. Se tem algo que faz todos nós nos divertirmos é esse jogo, nos proporciona momentos de adrenalina, pavor, coragem e amizade. Ótimo jogo para qualquer um jogar e colocar em seu top 10.
-
Nov 18, 2018The greatest and most iconic game of all time. Nothing will ever come close to Halo 3.
-
Nov 6, 2017Amazing story, amazing multiplayer. Hell, possibly the best game I've ever played. It really brings back memories. It was my first shooter game, and I'd always play it with my friends. It was the best. Amazing multiplayer too.
-
May 23, 2017Halo 3 is one of the best sci-fi shooters I have ever played. Everything about this game including it’s campaign, multiplayer, and forge mode are perfected.
-
Jul 26, 2017This game is really awesome and exciting, I really enjoyed this halo, the graphics and I think that he deserve 10, even though that you can find some troubles, playing in the legendary mode is really awesome. If you have an Xbox, you should by one, it was my first halo and probably my favorite.
-
Nov 9, 2017What a game... The perfect end for the trilogy. The game-play is the same, just perfect. Can't wait to play halo 4. The campaign length is OK, not perfect. But was a blats playing this awesome game. I didn't touch the multilayer.
-
Sep 8, 2023The best Multiplayer FPS of all time.
I don't think we will ever see another game like Halo 3. -
Nov 20, 2018one of the best games of all time and is still played today good graphics and tight controls.
-
Dec 1, 2017A classic, a riveting story with very well designed levels, excellent gameplay, and a strong Multiplayer in it's day, Halo 3 was one of the best games released in 2007.

Awards & Rankings

It's the addition of the Forge level editor and the saved films that give the game an even longer set of legs, legs that will probably keep you running at full speed until Bungie figures out where, exactly, to go from here.
-
Halo 3 is the best Xbox 360 game to date. The single-player campaign and storyline are both very strong, but it's Forge and the Saved Films features that will likely go down in history as Bungie's crowning achievements. They've basically taken everything great about the series and improved upon it in every way, then added some amazing new features that we'll be using for years to come.
-
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[?].
