Halo 3

Why bother posting a review right? We all are going to get it and make sure to destroy each other over a LAN or XBL for the next year. Well, I am here to tell you that is not a bad thing.

This game plays like every other Halo. We do have new grenades and a few new toys, but overall it is the same. There is nothing wrong with this.

The real beauty of this game comes from the way you can create the ultimate multiplayer games. You want to make everyone really fast and only able to use grenades, you can. You want to make everyone slow and only have shotguns, you can. You want to to make everyone only use a pistol in low gravity, non regenerating shields, active camo, and no grenades with only three lives? Well my friend, you can. As much fun as you can have playing Halo you can have fun making Halo.

You may have heard of the Forge. It is fun in the same way. There is nothing funnier than setting up a teleporter exit next to a bluff and then placing the entrance right in front of someone just running along. This is just the beginning of what you can do.

All of this said, don't expect much from the single player game. It is longer than I thought it would be, but it is still not rewarding. I say this as someone who has actually read the Halo books.

When it comes down to it, you should enjoy this game.
