Quarter To Three Review Puts Down Halo 3

xsynergyx | September 24, 2007 | Reviews | XBOX 360 
Quarter to Three has written an average long review that mainly critiques the very recent game, Halo 3 for the Xbox 360. Uh-oh. Are they just trying to catch some attention, laugh as fanboys get mad or do they truly not like the game? I'm sure none of you have completely the game yet, but read the review and when you start playing, see if you agree.
So, yeah, Halo 3. Biggest gaming event of the year, I suppose. Last night, I got from it everything I'm going to get from the single player game. It's short. I finished the Normal mode in a single evening, clocking maybe eight or ten hours, most of them out of a sense of obligation rather than wanting to know what happens next.

    I immediately respect this guy. He doesnt just give it a 10/10 because everyone else does. He sounded a bit too harsh. But I agree with a lot of the things he said

    Yup, he is a little bit too harsh. But still, I agree with most of the things he said.

    *bleep*ing lame... Heavenly Sword clocks in at 8 - 10 hours other revs critisise that and rate it down, Halo 3 has an 8 hour story and it gets praised, i am glad to see a none onjectional review from someone that obviously isn't trying to suck up to Bungie.

      True but a vast amount of Halo 3 praise comes from the online side of things which adds an almost infinite amount of play-time.

        Well that doesn't really explain why Warhawk was so underrated for the simple fact that it had no single player at all, when in reality, Warhawk is AAA material...AND NOT TO MENTION IT CAME WITH A $50 BLUETOOTH HEADSET FOR THE STANDARD RETAIL PRICE.

        But Halo's single player is basically quick and forgettable, BUT HEY, IT'S THE ONLINE THAT REALLY SHINES...yeah? When does it not?

    Well, here I am wondering why the game doesn't even get penalized for the abysmal single player campaign...

    I finished the game...got it today, finished it today and I think that a lot of the high ratings are well deserved. Oh and the graphics kick so much butt.

    I agree with Existenz. I haven't played Halo 3 myself, but I always like to see someone actually review the game, instead of giving it an awesome score, just because it's one of the most hyped games of the year.

    I love how so many people assume that if Halo gets a high ranking, it's because of the hype. But if it gets a lower ranking, it's because the review is honest and truthful. Maybe you should all stop being idiots and just assume that maybe the game is actually really good?

    I've played it Phantasy Lord. I would hardly take a side until I've played. And Halo 3 to me just lacks the 'wow' factor. Like the reviewer says FPS's have come a long way in the last 6 years but Halo has not
