Video game reviews: Halo 3 (Xbox 360)

Even though I beat Halo 3 on Normal mode only, I think this game is amazing! You have to be strategic, cunning, and of course, know what you're doing. With all of the enemies, you all are probably thinking, "I can't do it! I can't do it!" It's really fun, except for level Cortana, when you raid the Flood's ship. These are my opinions of the game Halo 3:

When I see all the weapons I'm able to obtain, I just think if the Earth was like this now, you know, without all the Flood and Covenant. With the Brute Shots, Gravity Hammers, and Spartan Lasers, the game just screams, "I AM THE ULTIMATE!" Also, lets not forget about the special X-button items, including the awesome Bubble Shield, Invisibility, Invincibility, Gravity Lift, and Trip Mines, which give us a fair chance to kill all the enemies our eyes behold.

The vehicles are my absolute favorite, from the Choppers to the Banchees, vehicles give you the fair advantages you need. The Mongoose is ok, but not that great. It has no weapon, so you have to sit in the passenger seat and waste all your ammo. The Warthog is pretty much everyone's favorite, including mine! It can fit 3 people: driver, passenger seat, and turret. I think both the flying, 1-person vehicles are very awesome, but the Banshee could be better. It can't even stop in mid-air without falling.

I think the enemies on this game are weird, funny, and ultimately hard. But you know what they say: What's a game without hard enemies? The Covenant are pretty easy, until they come in bigger numbers. The Brutes remind me of death because they always make me die. Although, the little Covenant guys are so annoying because they pop out of no where with bombs in both of their hands, ready to blow you up. UUUUGH! Even if they are annoying, they still make really funny moments and say funny stuff. Now the Flood are a different story. When I first saw them, I almost peed my pants, but I'm pretty sure my sister did, and she's freshman! The Popcorn guys are really annoying, especially when they explode out of those ugly hunch-backed guys. Also, they're very annoying when they take Brute bodies, like when they team up with you. Oh well, at least I beat the game!

My allies. Gosh, where do I begin? They're so stupid! I mean, the only thing they're good at is complaining and dying. They do give you your weapon if you ask, so that's OK. They also just stand still when you have to go face something. The Arbiter is pretty useful, though. He attacks very well and doesn't die so often. He's my favorite ally because he's always there for me, even on level Cortana, when he came to pick Master Chief up.

My favorite level is the last level, when you have to drive to the ship with the Warthog. It's pretty easy, even on Legendary mode! Also, I love creating my own Spartan. The Elites are cool, but I still like being human. Anyways, Halo 3 is an amazing game, and you should go buy it IMMEDIATELY!
