The Womb Posted September 29, 2007 Share Posted September 29, 2007 Beat it yesterday Played the first level with 2 other friends on legendary and found it WAY to easy So I played from level 2 on by myself and it was a great experience I think I did it in like 9-10 hours Although everyone likes the ending I have to say I really wasn't a big fan of it And yeah the story was a little confusing but I think I basically got it all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zombie Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Spent both friday and saturday hangin' at my friends house playing this. Fun game, really fun. I'm not that good though. We played some co-op on legendary for awhile. I died alot, but I was screwing around alot. We also played for several hours on X-Box Live, and played decently. The needler is alot more powerful this time around... wow, good thing you cant dual wield it. I also really liked the brute shot... those two extra rounds are nice. Anyways, good game. I want a 360 now. Also, that elephant thing on the sandtrap map is AWESOME, even though it is totally slow and useless. Star Wars sandcrawler influence, a little? Haha.

Crazyonr1 Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I have yet to play Legendary Co-op, but does it do the same annoying thing with the first two games where if one of you dies, you both have to restart? Has anyone found skulls yet? I've found the Iron skull so far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WesPip Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Uh, it didn't do that in Halo, just Halo2. And no, it only does that if you turn the Iron skull on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sephfire Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I wish they hadn't associated the extra armor with achievements. I love character customization of any kind, but some of those achievement conditions are infuriating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Effef Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I am so fucking tired of shotty snipers. Jesus christ. And the elephants in sandtrap are awesome. I love bum rushing a team who is camping on one with a rocket launcher and a mongoose. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
I-n-j-i-n Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I think the Needler is almost too powerful now. It tracks enemy automatically (even doing crazy 180 twists at times), it sticks onto the enemy AND it blows them up. I don't think it's grenade-power, but it almost always kills enemies, even the big brutes. And I thought Shotgun sniping was abused already in Metal Gear Online? That was so annoying. It doesn't make any sense to snipe someone with it.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
case Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 I am so fucking tired of shotty snipers. Jesus christ. a-fucking-men. i can't STAND playing that anymore. my entire team will always veto and pray someone on the other team does too. attacking an elephant is 100x more fun with a hornet, though i do love racing the mongooses! to above post: shotty snipers is a game type where you have shotguns and snipers for starting (and only) weapons, you can't actually snipe someone with the shotgun. in fact you can't seem to hit someone if they're more than about 20 feet away with it.

case Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 That is another really fun gameset. Hammerzeist was pretty cool, although I haven't played it much so it might be one that wears its time on you. I hope they release some MLG sets, cause I still hate starting out with the assault rifle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

case Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 No no, I meant that I want those MLG sets, cause you start out with Battle Rifles.. I can't stand the SMG unles its for dual wield. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fenrir Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 Yeah, I don't see what the fuss was about the assault rifle. I wasn't that impressed. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Womb Posted September 30, 2007 Share Posted September 30, 2007 So I Found out about the cut scene after the credits I don't know Why I was so stupid not to watch that that makes the ending way cooler. I unno I Know it was short but I think I liked this campaign better then the other two it was perfect difficulty on legendary that it was challenging but definetly do able Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maco70 Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 I am actually impressed with the game as a whole. I've beaten it three times, and I am now working on legendary (solo, no live yet). But the fixes they made are very welcome. Granted, I wish they would have hidden the skulls better. They ranged from dumb easy, to retarded hard (IWHBYD skull). It took a lot of elements from the first halo, and put them back; which I liked. I know, how many people play halo for the story? Honestly, I was more excited for the story than the multi-player. Speaking of which; What through the credits. You won't be sorry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Big0Jack Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Played about half the campaign at a friend's house the other day, and I have to say it's certainly the most fun of the series. The only thing that disappointed me was the music. It's good, but seemed really ambient compared to the OSTs from the last two. The only track I heard that really did it for me was the violin version of 'Perilous Journey' from the Halo 1 OST. But oh well, I only played half the game, so maybe it gets better from there. Speaking of which, does anyone know anything about a release date (or something like that) for the Halo 3 OST? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Icy Guy Posted October 6, 2007 Share Posted October 6, 2007 Word on the street is that it comes out on November 16th. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just something interesting I noticed - the IGN review said Halo 3 had the best OST of any video game ever. That's pretty intense. I'm sure I'll disagree.

Malaki-LEGEND.sys Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Oh you will. In terms of production values(of which I know nothing about), it might be ubertacular, but the greatest soundtrack ever? Not by a long shot. At any rate, I finally saw the after credits ending on legendary(and thus the secret bit), and while I liked the closure, the secret bit had me and my friend going WTF. Someone PM me giving me some kind of lowdown please. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blake Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Halo 3 has an awesome soundtrack. But it doesn't come close to that of Oblivion's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brushfire Posted October 7, 2007 Share Posted October 7, 2007 Halo 3 has an awesome soundtrack. But it doesn't come close to that of Oblivion's. Oblivion had a decent soundtrack. A couple of pieces were nice but it felt sorta bland and generic. I do, however, like the opener for that game. Truly awesome. Edit: Does anyone know the exact requirements to find all of the terminals in Halo 3? Do you have to read all of the text or no? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bigfoot Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 I just beat Halo 3. I don't get why this game gets so much hate. I guess it's because people hate that it's so popular when it really shouldn't be. I don't think this game is the most amazing thing I've played or anything, but I did enjoy playing it. Halo 3 was definitely hard at times too. Some parts I had to play many, many times because of how much trouble I had with a certain part. I went straight in playing on Heroic, so maybe that's why. Overall, it was a fun gaming experience, and my friend and I have a blast playing it online. I never played Halo 1 or 2, so this is my first Halo experience. I also dig the soundtrack.

Brushfire Posted October 13, 2007 Share Posted October 13, 2007 I kinda wussed out and had to play Halo 3 on legendary with three of my friends. It still took over 8 hours with our combined efforts. But we got all of the skulls. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
