Halo 3



Any Fans of the one of the greatest hits Halo? Halo is one of the greatest if not THE greatest game ever for the xbox console. When Halo first came out it quickly became a popular game. Bungie made one of the best story line games for a first person shooter game. The first Halo did not have xbox live but it was always one of those games that you would want to invite about 3 friends over to come and play with you since it is a 4 player game. The second Halo, Halo 2 now had the xbox live feature added to it, there was millions of players online every single day playing. I remember when the night Halo 2 was released there was people outside of game stores waiting till they opened to make sure they bought their copy of Halo 2 before it got sold out. Halo 2 was so popular that a worldwide gaming company called MLG ( Major League Gaming ) sponsored Halo 2. MLG is where players all over the world came to compete amongst one another either in a Free For All game mode or a team game 4v4. Top 8 winners in this event would win prize money, it started at about $25,000 for the 1st place winner but as more players came to compete MLG raised the stakes to about $100,000. When Halo 3 came out the same thing happened just like when Halo 2 came out, people were sleeping infront of gamestop, camping out until 12am for the store to open. I used to play Halo everyday after school because i wanted to become good enough to compete at a MLG event.
