The game has finally been released! Last night people all across the United States waited in line to get their copy of one of the most anticipated games ever. If you don't know Halo 3 is the third game in the ever so popular Xbox Console Trilogy. This game is exclusive to the Xbox 360 so if you don't own one you can't play it. Let's get down and dirty and unwrap this box to see how the most anticipated game of the year actually plays.
The first thing you will notice when stepping into the world of Halo 3 is the more natural landscapes. You will find that their are a lot more wild landscapes rather than giant steel hallways. Bungie added some awesome features to the multiplayer aspect of the game. Everyone loves the energy swords. Bungie added a feature called the "clash". This will eliminate the 50/50 chance of death when two people attack each other with the sword. The clash knocks the two attackers back and slightly drains their shields creating a improved sword fight from previous Halo's. Halo 3 does seem to be lacking maps. Hopefully more maps will be available through download with the online features. Even though Halo 3 doesn't have a huge selection, you still get the quality you expect in the maps it does have. Each map is beautifully hand crafted with every detail placed perfectly. You are truly in a different world. Every single feature in each map can be altered such as the speed characters travel to the pull of gravity on the planet. You can customize your game play to the max! The campaign game play has some cool added features too. Can we say 4 player campaign! This is one of the coolest features I think they added to the campaign. I would give the campaign a 4/5 overall.

There is only one reason to own a Xbox 360 and thats for the coolest shooter game this year, Halo 3. Check it out.
