Perhaps the most successful video game franchise of all-time comes to an epic close in the hugely anticipated Halo 3. Battle the relentless forces of the Covenant as they attempt to annihilate life in the galaxy as we know it. Halo 3 builds upon all the series’ strong-points with an expanded multiplayer mode. Pit 16 players against each other in a variety of highly-customizable game types including team deathmatch and capture the flag. A franchise first, 4 player co-op allows you and three other friends to tackle the epic main storyline together via Xbox Live. The story of Master Chief may be coming to a close in Halo 3, but your story as a Spartan super-soldier is just beginning. Less

Halo 3: The end of the epic trilogy

I got into Halo very late in the game; in fact I only started the first game about four months ago. Since then I beat Halo and Halo 2 both on the PC and was looking forward to getting Halo 3 for the PC as well. Unfortunately for me Halo 3 is only available... Read full review »

Jump, Crouch, Side-Step, Stick, and Shoot - It must be Halo 3

Pros Rank system online, old multiplayer map favorites
Cons short single-player mode
Recommended it? Yes

Shame on me for taking so long to play Bungie's prized possession, Halo 3. I would blame them for H3 not exceeding all the hype, but that would be a slap in their face. Yes, Microsoft pushed the hell out of this release, but it was every person who fell captive to the original Halo and Halo 2's... Read full review »

Gears of War 3 - I expected more, but not bad

Pros new execution moves, gory, fun shooter
Cons story was disappointing, multiplayer turns into shotgun only fests a lot
Recommended it? Yes

The Gears of War series has found plenty of success on the 360, and the first two games were fun both in single player as well as multiplayer.  Unlike Call of Duty which many gamers play for multiplayer with single player basically being an afterthought.  I enjoyed the GOW series...

Finish the Fight in Gears of War 3

Pros Fitting conclusion to the main story.
Cons Doesn't do anything new, I'm stuck with Jace for most of the game...
Recommended it? Yes

If a simple glance at a calendar didn't already prove it, gamers everywhere would still know we're in the latter stages of 2011. Like every year, game publishers have once again waited until the last quarter's holiday season to bury game lovers in an avalanche of triple A titles. One of the biggest... Read full review »
