Almost two years after the Xbox 360's release, Microsoft's marquee franchise finally comes home. With a satisfying campaign closure to the series' epic story arc, unprecedented multiplayer options, an innovative video recording feature, and heretofore unseen console mod tools, Halo 3 lives up to every bit of its ever-expanding reputation.
Not every Halo game has been a banger, but the franchise still has a raft of the greatest games of all time.
Infinite is a dumpster fire and as much as I like ODST, in no universe it ranks above Halo 2. This list is trash.
Best to worst: Halo 3, Halo 2, Halo Reach, Halo CE, Halo 4, Halo ODST, Halo Infinite, Halo 5.
The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?
I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*
Ah yes, Shadow Complex! Good indies back in the day. Summer of Arcade. I enjoyed Trials Evolution as well.
Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.
Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.
The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.
360 had Namco hitters AC6 and RR6... both quality titles. You should at least bust out the 360 for AC6 if you can score the flight stick. Its great.
When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....
It's a nostalgia peice same reason we get thousands of YouTube videos on sega genisis. Something people have fond memories for but the era is long gone.
It's xboxs golden year imo it was their genisis years the time where they stuck it to the market leaders Sony.
They stuck nothing. Sony screwed themselves giving Xbox an opening. They would have gotten the usual smack down if the PS3 had launched at $399 and was easier to develop for.
The Xbox 360 launched in North America 18 years ago, and is now officially old enough to buy you a drink in Europe.
Great platform, and many of its games (not bc) still hold up well to this day. Like the PS3, I keep a 360 hooked up for those games you can't play any other way.
The last gasp of greatness from XBox, you are missed, except the RROD that was lame, but amazing exclusives until the Kinect dropped.
I really enjoyed my X360, some great exclusives on it. Used to play the shit out ot Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey, two masterpieces
No ones ever going to give this game a bad score. They would be to scared too.
7 1/2 hours to go.
Is this game that fun? What the!!!!!!!! I only wished that Microsoft recalled all the 360's that become RROD because I won't buy the current models on the market. I f*ckin waiting for the Falcon Models.
If SONY doesn't release any game yet alone first party game (exclusives) on their console thats rated a AAA before Christmas I'll be very very disgusted with them and if after Christmas when KZ2 or MGS4 gets released and they're not classified as a AAA title - Well let's just put it this way by then the Falcon Model 360 will be out and I'll be buying Gears of War and Halo3 and it also seems that the 360 is coming out with some interesting other titles that are worth buying too. I don't know - but looking at all these f*ckin 10 scores from Halo3 makes me want to go to SONY Headquarters and have a emergency board meeting and probably fire a couple of executives.
BELIEVE!
Nuff said.
believe.
This is one of those cases where everyone has fallen prey to that old principle.Where if you keep hearing something over and over again, you eventually begin to believe that it's true.All you hear is that Halo is great, over and over again, and now everyone actually believes this crap.I finally got the chance to play Bioshock and was expecting some earth-shattering experience to say the least.Well it turned out to be just what I would consider just slightly above average.I myself would personally give it about an 8.5.In my case money is not an issue it's a tool so I have both systems(the wii is blasphemy in my opinion).HS is the shi+ right now in my opinion,Lair sucked huuge balls.Of course I haven't played Halo 3, my opinion comes from what I've seen and from reviewers.People seem as though they're afraid to give an honest score to this game.Oh well guess I'll rent this from gamefly and give a more concise hands-on opinion.
