Yeah, I just played some 4 player Co-op campaign on Legendary, with some guys in the #fw channel Smile and that was INSANE. So fucking fun! Smile

I really enjoyed the campaign, and I think the ending was perfect too Wink

Haha just read this on the Bungie.net forum ...

The weapons sound like weaksauce, which makes Master Chief come across like n00bsauce.


May the NFOrce be with you always.

yea the sound is crappy - in fact, stunning graphics apart, i found the whole game underwhelming - a perfect definition of meh

shame - deffo time for master chief to go and masterbate into retirement - the format smells well stale in this one.

tried to play on xbc ands kai again today. Turns out the 360 has a ping filter which won't let you connect on sys link unless the ping is under 30ms. Which is hard as hell to find. Fucking blows. Guess I'm waiting til tuesday to play multiplayer. Sad

i wouldn't call the gfx xbox1 nor utter shite, although ive got to agree that halo 3 , imo, didn't deliver visual wise. after seeing games such as gears, bioshock , etc, we all know what the 360 can do - and halo 3 isn't there.

I agree.
Master chief's armor for example looks absolutely incredible. and there are some pretty neat effects. the explosions look awesome and the levels are huge. the flora moving when touched by the player similar to crysis is also pretty cool.
but the environments themselves still look kinda blocky and not as natural as they should be. very similar to earlier halo games.

So yeah. the graphics might not make you stand around and watch in awe as to how beatiful everything is (although I did have a few of those moments when viewing some alien constructs in the distance and stuff), but they are definitely very good.

yea but its all a bit of a yawn this time around isnt it?

nice graphics but shame about the game really...just about worth the price of a dl for a backup, but only just.

i expect this to drift down towards the bottom of the pile of games before very long at all Smile

what you all forget here is that halo, espcially since the second one, became a mroe multiplayer focused experience, and less a single one. that's why to me, the single mode feels pretty lacking and unstellar, but i'm sure the multi mode shines.

I was extremely frustrated with the lack of dual weilding two needlers! I loved that from Halo2 especially using them in multiplayer. The stinger is a bit lame I have to say.


May the NFOrce be with you always.

Would I be right in thinking Halo 3 has nothing to do with the Unreal engine, unlike BioShock and Gears of War, which people are comparing it to and obviously they both have far superior visuals.

Makes you wonder what Halo 3 would be like if Bungie had made the game using the Unreal engine.

Well I completed the single play game in coop with my sister just now, and I must say it was loads of fun.
In Halo 1 and 2, there were some levels that I loved to play and others that just werent so much fun, but in Halo 3 I liked every level, with a few beeing particularly lots of fun.

I think it's cool that you have either marines or elites with you almost all of the time, while in the 2 earlier halo games you were on your own a lot. I like having them around, giving them weapons, listening to their hilarious comments and watching them do fun stuff. Like a marine taking over my falcon after I dropped out for a moment and flying away with it, flying into phantoms and stuff like that Smile


There is only one complaint that I have about the single player campaign... and that is that throughout the whole campaign, you never ever get to fly a banshee at all.
You fly a falcon for a few minutes twice I think, and you get to kill a few banshees at one of those two spots, and other than that you might see a few of them flying around in the distance once in a while, but no banshees ever attack you while you're on the ground which is weird.
I always liked fighting banshees with a warthog in halo 1 and 2.

Oh well I guess you can't have everything.
Still I'm very happy with the game overall. It was lots of fun.

This game is tops

All i was hoping for was halo 2 again and thats what i got with suped up graphics... i dunno what all the other clown are on about with there crap AI, crap graphics comments..

The only issue is as above the guns dont sound loud enough...

If you complain about the AI then play it on legendary. Its only as simple as the player, if your gonna just run away each time rather than wipe out the enemy whats the point....

Graphics are mint.. as is the theater additon. I spent fookin ages on d+dthe theater takin screenshots of awesome battles... topps.

I just wish i wasnt banned from live or had the real game cos halo is awesome online... (1 banned modded and one std 360)

You can actually get in em just you dont get given one.. as you wouldnt if you follow the plot... you in a new world as are they so there aint gonna be banshes lying about.. if you jump out of your falcon onto one you can do as you did in halo 2 and kick the fooker out... tricky tho fella.
