Besides the blockbuster storyline that finishes at least one massive fight across the stars, it's the multiplayer department where Halo 3 truly shines. A fun and epic campaign that made good use of the Xbox 360's hardware, Halo 3 builds on the improvements introduced by Halo 2 and runs wild with its level design. Halo 3 might not be remembered for rewriting the video game rulebook the way that its predecessors did, but it's still a fan-favorite game that became the gold standard for everything that came after it. Like so many people have said thus far: In 2004, Halo 2 will own you." - IGNīest for: Fans looking for a satisfying end to a trilogy And it's easily the best console-based, online game on Earth.
"It's a noble achievement in storytelling, gameplay balance, and multiplayer design. Not just the best online shooter of its day, Halo 2's memorable campaign, deadlier enemies, and the introduction of signature weapons all makes for a sequel that's still fondly remembered to this day. Combined with Halo 2's satisfying grasp on action, the template for smooth matchmaking, custom game modes, and skill-ranked multiplayer matches can be traced to the foundation that Bungie created for its second Halo game. Turning the Xbox console into a hub of online competition, Halo 2's multiplayer represents a seismic shift in how games can add value to their fanbases. If Halo: Combat Evolved put console FPS games on the map, then Halo 2 was the trailblazing sequel that connected the world with its groundbreaking multiplayer. " - Next Level Gamingīest for: Multiplayer fans wanting less story and more online action Quite frankly, it's one of the better ones that I have seen in a long time, at least since Half Life. "A game that will become the new benchmark for first person shooters. A smooth-as-silk action experience even after 20 years, the original Halo is a founding father of the modern-day first-person shooter and one of the biggest reasons why the genre has found so much success on home consoles. Not just a system-seller for the Xbox, Halo was one of the most influential FPS games of its time and blazed a trail forward for the genre with its split-screen multiplayer and a cinematic campaign that made good use of Master Chief's agile aggression to tear through Covenant forces. The original game that helped turn the Xbox console into a household name, Halo: Combat Evolved's high-concept storyline and living room multiplayer established a new benchmark for the FPS genre when it first arrived.
