Whats awesome is the fact that it goes back to its halo # 1 roots at one point, but im not going to ruin it for anyone who has not beat it yet.


Graphics were bad ***! campaign online is fun, and so is multiplayer with like 12 people!

Justin,

Yes halo is insane. I was going to wait until today to get it, however come 1230/1am i got annoyed that everyone on my friends list had it, so i caved.

The game is insane, however i suck at it very badly... Hopefully for not much longer though.

If anyone wants to play, my gamertag is Urwifespanties. I had you before justin but so many randoms added me as friends i had to delete all the friends on my list :'(

that's crazy. i went to gamestop at century III and there were only about 120 people in line. i was right in the middle. they had already made sure everyone paid for their game so people just had to pick them up. i was on my way home at top speed in the evo at 12:10. i really thought i would be waiting longer.

i was kind of hoping it would be longer. it was excellent, played well, and all that, but it only took my and 3 of my friends about 4.5 - 5 hours to beat it. i'm gonna up the anty to legendary, and try again

Kinda funny you wait how long for the game to be released that you can hardly stand it because of all the hype, wait in line and pay $60+ dollars for it and 5 hrs later its over....

Gotta love the video game industry

well, it was myself and 3 of my most skilled halo playing friends. really it wasn't fair towards the computer.

i do wish it was a bit longer, but to be honest, i didn't neccesarily buy halo for the campaign mode. i bought it for the online multiplayer. i HATED the campaign for halo 2, thought it was absolute trash, played it once to beat it, and haven't touched it since, but the online versus is where it's at.

the multiplayer maps are absolutely amazing in 3. WAY better than either of the two previous incarnations of the game.

You pretty much hit it on the head. Also this does not just go for Halo. I think 90% of xbox owners worry about the multiplayer before the single player.

I know personally that is what i am concerned with the most. Halo's online is unreal, same with Gears, COD, and that Ace Combat 6 will have some insane online game play.

Oh well, it would be even better if we can get an game of all evo owners!

I am on campus all day, and have a big test tomorrow so i will devote most of my time tonight to studying. However i will try to get on for a little... If not i'll definitely throw some halo 3 down tomorrow with you for sure.
