A great game made by Bungie for the Xbox. It was so hyped fans were expecting a life-changing experience and an ascension to the higher level of gaming. Many fans were sad when they found Halo 2 wasn't God's gift of gaming goodness, and Halo 2 was looked at as an over-rated game by many. Sadly, it was not looked upon as the great game it was by normal gamers, but Xbox fans see it as phenonmenal. They're right. The game sold way, way more than any other game ever. (That includes GTA: San Andreas.) And it made Microsoft 125 million dollar.
See dissapointment. A rushed title due to constant bitching and due to that, it left a game with a few superweapons making it so that any idiot can be uber so it is often played by the same guys who play counterstrike
God made Halo, then he handed the sequal over to microsoft. Who in turn opend the door to all the counterstrike noobs in the world.
"HAHAHAHA I got the rocket launcher"
"noob i got the long distanced sword... go figure that one"
A massively overhyped game that made all of the WoW addicted, can't stop talking about that kill last night douchebags at my school practically orgasm. Despite popular belief, Halo 3 is not the best game in the world, the only thing it brought to the party was the "through the helmet visor" view. I can assure you based off the first one, if you play it on legendary, you are playing the original doom on ultraviolence except with better graphics and it's not classic worthy.
Please note that REAL gamers see it as a game and NOT one to be obsessed over. As long as you don't obess over it, your fine.
Someone: Halo 3 omg lets have a xbox live party.
Theothersomeone: Dude, no.
Someone: OMG u hatehalo ur a douche blah blah blah i'm a faggot blah blah blah.
When you play beyond the game and you read the books, the back stories and deep passages from the games of the Halo Universe
-"Yo I didn't know that in the Portals on the Ark, they explained that if someone were to fire all the Halos from here, more than 2 dozen Worlds of intelligent life across the galaxy would be destroyed."
-"Who told you that?"
-"Alex. He is quite the Halo Guru"
