Perhaps the most successful video game franchise of all-time comes to an epic close in the hugely anticipated Halo 3. Battle the relentless forces of the Covenant as they attempt to annihilate life in the galaxy as we know it. Halo 3 builds upon all the series’ strong-points with an expanded multiplayer mode. Pit 16 players against each other in a variety of highly-customizable game types including team deathmatch and capture the flag. A franchise first, 4 player co-op allows you and three other friends to tackle the epic main storyline together via Xbox Live. The story of Master Chief may be coming to a close in Halo 3, but your story as a Spartan super-soldier is just beginning. Less

Pros Rank system online, old multiplayer map favorites
Cons short single-player mode
Recommended it? Yes

Shame on me for taking so long to play Bungie's prized possession, Halo 3. I would blame them for H3 not exceeding all the hype, but that would be a slap in their face.
