Halo 3 is coming soon. Who has preordered it? I'll have to wait for it when I get back home. That and Bioshock. Why do all the good games arrive after I leave?

Keep your eyes open from next Sunday. All the gaming websites will have authority to publish their reviews from then. Guesses anyone? I'd say 8 - 9.5 average.

Only ever played Halo 2. Was enjoyable but I wasn't caught up in it as much as other people. And for people who say it has one of the best stories in any game is well, kinda stretching it a fair bit I'd say. What it is though, is the best mutiplayer shooter for any console, and I imagine that's what's selling it to most.

Bioshock freaked me out for some reason. But about Halo 3, yeah I plan on buying it but not pre-ordering it. When I saw the first trailer of Halo 3, well the one with the kids talking, that looked so real. I still have so idea if that part was real actors or just CG stuff. And when It go to the Master Chief part.....nice.

It comes out September 26th. I leave for Basic Training in the Air Force on September 25th...

...God laughs at me.

Its alright though, when I get back, i'll have a lot of shit to look forward to like Mass Effect, Eternal Sonata, Assassin's Creed, as well as Halo 3

I want it!!! but don't have a 360...

THUNDERDUCK · « **Reply #5 on:** September 10, 2007, 01:49:09 PM »

Halo 2 was pretty good and that was on the plain XBox. I definitely want to see how the 360 handles the new graphics. Story wise Halo 2 was weaker, since it was not all Master Chief action, but the Arbiter was the final battle. Halo 1 was the reason I got the XBox. The last battle or the escape was the highlight to that game, just learning to drive the Warthog was necessity.

H3 will have 4 player online-coop, the Forge (for multiplayer), Online Multi-player combat. Also on sale will be the Halo 3 Edition 360, controllers, earpiece, and Zune. Damn, I wonder who's getting the Legendary set?

I so want to have this, but alas, its not to be.
Don't have that kind of money to spend on a game, let alone on the 360.

lol, Halo getting praised for the story?

Actually, I felt the story of Halo 2 was much better than Halo 1. It turned your nameless/lifeless enemies into fleshed out beings with a heated religious and political climate. The self-discovery made by the Arbiter of what Halo really is and that their religion is a huge mistake, as well as the shifting power from the Elites to the Brutes was leaps and bounds ahead of "getting crashed on a Halo, regroup, figure out whats going on, and stop Halo from assploding."

That said, I liked the single player experience of Halo much better.

I actually hate Halo.
It almost kept me from buying an Xbox. :<

^lol that'd be awesome flamebait/trolling if this was a pure XBOT forum...

StreakInTheSky · « **Reply #10 on:** September 19, 2007, 10:57:24 PM »

wouldn't exactly say it's awesome >_>

THUNDERDUCK · « **Reply #11 on:** September 20, 2007, 01:17:52 AM »

A little less than a week to go. Not much of a multi-player fan, either.

The hype has started. Pretty exceptional, it was on the front-page of my hometown community newspaper. Microsoft is definitely pulling out all the stops to market it.

Tuffty · « **Reply #13 on:** September 25, 2007, 07:10:50 PM »

Hell it's even reported on BBC News. But has anyone else heard about this?

Halo 3 disc problem reports

Must be annoying if you're about to finish the fight, but the disc can't be read

RatBastich · « **Reply #14 on:** September 25, 2007, 07:28:26 PM »

Now thats really messed up.
To think, that so many people waited in line for hours overnight just to get the game, only to have this happen.
Tsk tsk, M$.

StreakInTheSky · « **Reply #15 on:** September 26, 2007, 12:29:03 AM »

they spent too much money on marketing it, they didn't bother trying to make sure the game discs were made correctly.

I so want this game though. T_T

RatBastich · « **Reply #16 on:** September 26, 2007, 03:12:43 AM »

HALO 3 is on the SciFi channel.

hahaa karma.

THUNDERDUCK · « **Reply #18 on:** October 03, 2007, 01:57:11 PM »

I read most scratched discs were playable. It was the packaging that made the discs come loose, just like a regular DVD.

Dj-B13 · « **Reply #19 on:** October 09, 2007, 03:05:20 AM »

After hearing about that too, that was messed up.

But HALO 3 s so godlike!
