Customer Reviews
A good but over hyped game.
I love first person shooters, I've played tons of them making me wonder why this game is so praised. Half of the aliens are comedy relief who crack lame jokes, run around like Ewoks with laser guns. The other groups of aliens run around in colorful suits of armor making them less of a threat and more of a joke. The ally AI was a joke, most of the time I'd have to drive around dodging while my AI lackie missed every shot. Taking the turret over I had nothing more to do than laugh as he plows head on into the enemy tank and I get turned into bacon strips.
The game seems to want to be the movie Aliens but more light hearted. It was generic shooter all the way and even more so online. I'm missing something I'm sure since the game wasn't what people were telling me it was. Most of the guns sound like toys and Master Chief looks like he's made of plastic. A minor complaint I have is the game isn't HD, it's 640p scaled up to 720p so that's standard definition confusing me since it's supposed to be a next gen game.
The helmet is nothing more than a tiny decoration for you to put on a shelf to gather dust and house spiders, making the price insane for something like this.
In short Halo 3 is nothing short of a generic shooter which isn't bad, but it doesn't live up to the hype in the least, it's nothing ground breaking and in my opinion it's not worth 60 dollars never the less the price you pay for the helmet pack, a good rental at best.
