First ones in boys. 10/10.


EGM Editor-in-Chief Dan "Shoe" Hsu reviews the game. "After all, Halo 3 has enough content to keep you stuck to your controller for weeks, if not months or even years. Looks like we won't be finishing the fight anytime soon after all."

Wow. So it isn't overrated. Okay, just makes me feel worse about not pre-ordering it.

The reviews are all good. The lowest it recieves is a 9/10, but thats from Yahoo...Averages 9.7/10, which is truly amazing.

yeah, Halo is gonna dominate simply because of the hype, don't have an xbox so I rarely play it (either of the first two) its a pretty good game, but it takes loads of practice so I never have much fun playing it

I'm not a huge fan of FPS, but I'll admit that nintendo loses in that catagory, although the one wii fps I played was fun, I like the whole light gun like controls, doesn't require as much skill as aiming with joysticks. I salute all of you who can do it, I certainly can't

I know, I haven't tried Metriod out much, but someone said it was more like an adventure.

Whatever, from the little I've played off FPS's it was bad at best, and left me with a bad feeling inside, and I hate guns.

We love it because it's fun, so fun I stood in line with a friend for 7 hours and we were second in line :lol:. We then went on to complete the capmaign on normal play some online matches and get about halfway through legendary before he had to go call in 'sick' to work :lol:.

Another 12 hours until I got to my friends house...

For the people who already have it, whats it like?
I wanna play the campaign arcade thing, where you play with friends and get points for kills and so on whilst doing a campaign map.

It's fun, really fun. Always more fun with a friend though. I took a while for me to remember that 'x' places the equipment instead of use/reload had to keep reminding myself otherwise I would end up wasting them :lol:
