==XBOX Live in Halo 3==
== The article is too long ==
In my oppinion the article is unnecessarily long, perhaps instead of having a elaborate list of all the weapons in the game, have just a very short section regarding the subject and provide a link to a main article named "weapons in Halo 3" or something.
:Ok, that was maybe a bad example, just apply it to the storyline section or multiplayer instead --[[User talk:Maiar|Maiar]] 04:59, 16 February 2009 (UTC)


The article says that you can rank up in Halo 3 custom matches.  I HIGHLY doubt that that is true.
== A little help? ==


i would just like to know which map has the greatest forge allowence for explosive objects (fusion coils, plasma batterys, propane tanks, mongeese, etc) out of the origional came-with-game maps. and if you could suggest the best way to contain the pile without reducing the boom-boom that would be appreachiated. and the best detonator to maximize KABOOM.--[[User talk:Maiar|Maiar]] 04:39, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

What are you trying to do? For most things I'd use Sandtrap because there are large open areas and the map is huge. To contain the explosion you should build a cage of boxes. A good detonater would be a well placed spike grenade. [[User talk:John95|John95]] 02:08, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

== Nationwide Sickness ==


no your RP is your military rank, that makes sence. --[[user:sogy|sogy]]
I think it should also be noted on this article that a large percentage of the U.S. population was struck by a sudden virus on the day of this game's release. People everywhere were calling in sick to their schools and jobs coincidentally on the same day Halo 3 was released. I think Halo 3 may have some part in this grand conspiracy. ;)


Anyone could help edit the Halo 3 page, their is a fat update in Bungie Weekly update, I don't want to do it myself, since I am on Exams.[[User:Master Chief Petty Officer|'''ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ''']] 04:45, 9 June 2007 (UTC)

==COVENANT==
The BEST map for forging is Sandbox. Everything on the Map is available to delete.


The Covenant is two separate parties now.  It should be categorized as such.  So if you're the one undoing my edits in weapons and vehicles, tell me why.  The Covenant is not ONE anymore.  That's like just throwing all the human weapons in with the Covenant ones.  They're AGAINST each other, so they should be categorized that way.  So who keeps undoing it when I edit it this way?

== Plot Error, Re: High Charity Pelican ==
thow how about a sepretist wepon catagory


Exactly, but SOME people, who have yet to reveal themselves, edit it to the way it is whenever I create the separatist category.  So we should post a thing to RR or someone.
The Pelican that was found on High Charity could not have come from the "Halo 2 era" as stated in the article because it was surrounded by dead *uninfected* marines with an active radio beacon. The Pelicans that were scattered around High Charity from the In Amber Clad were loaded with Flood and certainly would not be in radio contact anymore.

I recently plugged my Xbox 360 arcade into the internet and (despite my pathetic little memory card now filled to the brink with compleatly pointless but apparently essential updates) it keps telling me that i don't have permission to play online. I payed 300 fucking dollars for the son of a bitch then 80 for halo 3 (and certain amounts for a few other games) and another 32 for a few meters of ethernet cable. $400 dosn't get me the right to online play?


I think the world is gana end, and all of humanity will crumble under the unstoppable onslaught of the covenant forces. All who perish shall fuel the hart of there enemy, building a force so strong that all who sand in it's way will be brought to his knees, the covenant is going to bern a path to a glorious victory spreading their divine will to all planets they conquer.

hmm, I haven't played Marathon but I've read quite a bit about the storyline and heard a lot of theories, one is that halo and marathon are connected. There are many different possibilities but I'd say that if the world does end than I think Master Chief, Fred, Kelly, Linda, Team Saber, and Team Katana are going to survive. But what do I know?

I don't believe Microsoft have any plans of releasing this on PC, for a start the game system is a lot more advanced than the other two Halo games. Also while it is still popular (which I think it will always be) they will not want to bring it out on PC as they want people to buy XBoxes, and also if it was on PC there would be an availability of easy modding and maybe even hacking, which would definitely not be good for Microsoft or Bungie!

THey made a PC version of Halo 2, I think it's just a matter of time till there is a PC version. Other games have just as good graphics, like Call of duty 4 and world at war and there on the PC

Yeah i agree, it would also be unfair towards pc gamers to bring halo 1 and 2 to the pc, let halo 2 end in a terrible way and then not bringing part 3 to the pc.
(Because halo 2 and 3 are actually just one game, with halo 2 you have only half a game it doesn't have an ending).
But considiring the time they took to get halo 2 to the pc then you might have to wait a pretty long fucking while.
That's why i'm happy to have an xbox360 xD.--[[Special:Contributions/84.87.173.45|84.87.173.45]] 21:01, 14 May 2009 (UTC)


I just thought. What if the structure on Earth that the Covenant BELIEVE is the arc isn't?  What if the Thing Dubbed by Dr. Hasley the 'Dyson Sphere' is the arc?  Truth may not realize that his place of salvation is not on Earth, but on Onyx. This would (VERY sadly) mean the inevitable: John-117 would lose for the third time in his life (1st on reach, 2nd on reach again).  Too bad it would cost him his life.  This is just, as i said above, a thought. -Anonymous Halo Fan.
Halo 2 does have an ending. It's called a cliffhanger. And PC games in general have better graphics. Crysis would melt an Xbox Elite on the lowest graphics settings.




I think Cortana was talking about the world as they know. Things changed a lot, and eart  is fighting one more battle. For better or for worse, things will never be the same again...

I don't believe Bungie would have very much to do with the PC version. Remember, Gearbox did Halo: CE and Hired Gun, a Microsoft team, did Halo 2 Vista with only a little help from Bungie. Most likely, either a third party developer like Gearbox or Microsoft's own team, similar to 343 Industries ;) will develop the PC version, so keep an eye on them.


I just think, well, maybe the worlds isn't going to end, maybe the Covenant may be able to forge an alliance with the human race, or the MC will be battling the Flood with the Covenant. Just tell me when you had the game, because I haven't got a chance in buying it.[[User:Master Chief Petty Officer|'''ΜΆŜΤΈŖČΗέÏΣΡΈΤΤΥОΓΓïČëŗ''']] 12:10, 12 June 2007 (UTC)

Bungie have said the reason why Halo 3 '''WILL NOT''' be available for PC is because the memory requirements are immense. Halo 3 would require 3 terabytes of memory to play on your computer. And no computer in the world has anything close to that. That's the reason why Halo 3 won't be available for PC for a ''long'' time.

So the Covenant are going to be busy blowing things up, killing things, and launching giant blobs of plasma into our oceans (and searching for some sort of super-powerful Forerunner artifact thingo, but that's not a big deal) right?  So, eventually one of them is going to get real hungry (an elite, say), and maybe he'll be in Japan.  Okay.  No, let's say he'll be in a small Japanese community on the outskirts of Halifax, Nova Scotia (that's in Canada), and he'll look around and see some sort of sushi shop, and he'll be like; "Me hungry!, blarghahahahaha", and go and eat some sushi.  Then, in the sushi shop, he'll be eating his really good tasting sushi, when all of a sudden, Al Gore will come in (he's there on one of his tours around the world to show off his brilliant, scientifically-proven slide show) and complain to the elite about how the hypothermonucleaicdeanimaniacarboxylasesulfideic vapours that are released in massive amounts when their ship's plasma generators contact (and vapourize) certain genera of airbourne Gram-negative, halophilic bacteria that have the ability to produce lysine decarboxylase and cytochrome c oxidase, and also the ability to reduce nitrates to nitrites (therefore playing a vital role in our planet's nitrogen cycle), and survive in both aerobic and anaerobic conditions, and therefore are able to carry out both cellular respiration, and fermentation (Anyways... so back to Al Gore, to continue this really long run on sentence), contribute to global warming.  So the elite will start to get really pissed off, right? But then he'll be distracted by how AMAZING the sushi really is (and the fish in Nova Scotia (and the lobsters!)).  And he'll go and tell his Covenant friends, and they'll make peace with the humans over a table of sushi, and the world will be safe.  But then, they'll start to notice that all of the fish have been killed (by the giant blobs of plasma the Covenant have been launching into our oceans)(therefore, no more sushi:(), and will be sad because now the Nova Scotia fishermen are out of their jobs :(. But now they have bigger problems.  Remember the global warming our friend Al Gore (who's ''Inconvenient Truth'' movie cover looks kind of like one of the new Halo 3 ads, by the way) was talking about earlier? Well, it will start a flash-freeze-storm thingo (like in ''The Day after Tomorrow''), and freeze everyone on the planet.  And Al Gore's last words before he is killed by the global warming he had fought so hard to stop over the past few centuries will be: "HA! I told you s-URG... (as he is flash frozen with sushi still in his mouth)".  And the immense cold will cause the Forerunner artifact to explode, and '''everyone''' dies (Including the Nova Scotian fishermen :() so I can get my story over with. THE END (So, my point is the world, WILL end, so you should all vote so in the silly voting box thingo above)

Look for the signs, the keepers of the flame!
I've been doing alot of research and heres what I found. After rummaging through useless links and blogs, I fould something odd. In a recent E-mail sent to suscribers of the Games for Windows Download service, one the games showed in the LINK image and on the page of the site shows "Halo 3" as a possible future download. Going into the link however, only shows Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2. Someone jumping the gun on a possible "Halo 3 PC" announcement?? Or perhaps a mistake?? Remember, a PC version of the other games took about 2-3 years to complete. If they fallow the pervious pattern (This is speculation), it would be realesed about 2010 Also, Gearbox has some kind of "Huge" project going along.

The person above's right.  The world ''will'' end.  Even if global warming doesn't kill us, all the dead fish will put the fishermen out of their jobs, which will eventually destroy the world economy and start a series of chain-reactions that will inevitably lead to the world's end (like the world blowing up, not like in ''Pirates of the Carribean'').  He's right (and also very smart).

They weren't aiming to destroy all of them, only the ones on the Ark. And thus, the Gravemind.[[User talk:Honor Guard Reborn|We are dropping into Hell troopers, cause you forgot to pray to God!]] 20:34, September 29, 2009 (UTC)

But they have to get one first. Besides, they can probbaly make another one on Installation 05, cause in the hologram, it has enough flood biomass to make fifty lol.

In the level [[The Covenant (Level)|The covenant]], the citadel has the holograms of the rings, installation 05 is the brown/tan one.
As for the cruisers, the Sangheili fleets have made a quarantine, and are destroying anything that leaves the ring, and any cruisers that get captured. [[User talk:Honor Guard Reborn|We are dropping into Hell troopers, cause you forgot to pray to God!]] 07:35, October 1, 2009 (UTC)

Ok before the a.v.c finds a way 2 ban me again, i just wanted 2 change one thing... The rating on Halo 3 because i hate when they do that... I have 2 reasons for this, 1.)Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2 were both rated "M", and 2.) as im sure all of you have seen the vidoc, there IS blood and im sure there will be just as much "You covie bastards" and "Damn it"'s from Seargant Johnson from halo 2...
It's called the Security/Katana glitch. Sorry but it will not return until you earn an additional amount Gamerscore. So if you want your precious Katana back, you should go and get some Halo 3 achievements.--[[User talk:Awesum Scrote|&lt;SCROTE&gt;]] 02:38, October 24, 2009 (UTC)

I think it should be rated "RP" since the ESRB havn't confirmed it officially. You want this site to be accurate, you should stick with the facts until there is official confirmation.

Its most likely going to be M. The other 2 were... and you can't realy go from M to T or it would change the game ALOT.

At the end of Halo 2, R'tas Vatamee (I believe that's Half Jaw's name) commandeered a Covenant battleship, presumably the Shadow of Intent. While the Arbiter, Johnson, and Miranda were battling Tartarus on Installation 05, Master Chief was on his way to Earth on the Forerunner Keyship.


Yet somehow, in the beginning of Halo 3 when the Chief finishes his joyride to the surface of the Earth after blasting his way off the Keyship, the Arbiter, Johnson, and Miranda weren't just already on the planet, but had already been established as base commanders and had been defending Earth from Covenant Loyalist attacks. Not only that, but after the Keyship lands and opens the portal to the Ark, THEN the Shadow of Intent appears!


As it has not been officially rated, you are all merely guessing.

I've always assumed that they all made it back to Earth on the Shadow of Intent, under Half-Jaw's command, but this doesn't seem to be the case. I'm finding it a little hard to believe that he dropped them off, went back to get Elite Shipmasters, and came back again (I imagine that there's travel time when it comes to interstellar Slipspace travel, and time was not something they had to waste). So how did the Arbiter, Johnson, and Miranda get back to Earth? And how on Reach did they get to Earth so quickly as to establish themselves and "settle in" (as much as one can "settle in" during a war) before the Chief could so much as get off the ship he was on? Reminds me of the Halo Wars Arbiter and his apparent ability to teleport from planet to planet between cutscenes.

Well Halo:CE was originaly going to be rated T but when dismemberment of the flood happedned they immeditly changed it into a M game. On the Halo 3 website says there is going to be flood so rated M.

:From the [http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=16989 official timeline]:
:*November 3: Prophet of Truth leaves High Charity for Earth in Forerunner dreadnought.
:*November 8: The Forerunner dreadnought arrives in the Sol system and proceeds to Earth at near relativistic speed.
:*November 17: The Forerunner dreadnought arrives at Earth. SPARTAN-117 ejects and lands in the Kenyan jungle.


== MC IN THE END ==
:Regret's carrier made the trip from Earth to Delta Halo in thirteen days. If Miranda, Johnson and the Arbiter left just after the ending scene of Halo 2, they'd have a chance to make it to Earth a day before the Chief. Plus, they might've been using a faster Covenant vessel than a carrier, arriving even earlier. I always thought the Fleet of Retribution spared one of their fastest ships and sent them on their way while trying to maintain the quarantine of High Charity.


I hope the very last level ends with the Master Chief. I really didn't like ending the game as the arbiter for H2.--'''[[user:Spartan 1 1 7|<font color=Black>MYH.Q.</font>]]''' [[Image:Halo3.comchief.PNG|50px]]· <sup>'''[[User talk:Spartan 1 1 7|<font color=Black>MY</font><font color="#78866B">ORDERS</font>]]'''</sup> ·  <sub>'''[[Special:Contributions/Spartan 1 1 7|<font color=#78866B>MY</font><font color=black>BAT</font><font color=#6B8E23>TL</font><font color=black>ES</font>]]'''</sub> 16:51, 5 May 2007 (UTC)
:Still, the timeline seems to have been purposefully made up to make it possible for Johnson, the Arbiter and Miranda to get to Earth before the Chief. There isn't really a good explanation for why the Dreadnought would hang out in Sol, or approach Earth at "near-relativistic speeds" for nine days instead of just directly landing there. Unless Truth wanted to make sure all orbital and groundside threats are removed first. Halo: Uprising showed the Chief doing stuff in the Dreadnought while it was in Sol, but that didn't really seem like nine days. Also, there's seemingly a conflict with Ghosts of Onyx, which seems to imply that the {{UNSCShip|Dusk}} made it to Earth in mere hours following the Dreadnought's slipspace wake. Of course, it was never directly stated it was caused by the Dreadnought, but one can figure it out. Oh well, I guess we can assume it was an anomaly of something, as a sloppy explanation. --[[User:Jugus|<font color="MidnightBlue"><b>Jugus</b></font>]] ([[User talk:Jugus|<font color="Gray">Talk</font>]] | [[Special:Contributions/Jugus|<font color="Gray">Contribs</font>]]) 14:31, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. I'm just going to pretend that Truth's ship stopped off at another part of space, rendevouxed (sp?) with other Brute ships in other systems (perhaps they had gotten the signal from Truth to mutiny against the Elite Shipmasters or were watching Truth's anti-Elite rants on Covenant Fox News (right before Master Chief showed up in that level)) in order to build up a larger fleet to attack Earth. I'm pretending that the Chief stayed in the shadows since otherwise he'd be facing impossible odds and perhaps wouldn't even have been able to get to Earth otherwise (even without all the enemy soldiers and ships, without Cortana I doubt he'd be able to fly a Covenant/Forerunner starship alone with no crew). I like that idea.

They went with Rtas. deep. [[Special:Contributions/165.138.37.177|165.138.37.177]] 13:50, 1 December 2011 (EST)


:The Keyship stayed back while the rest of the Covenant fleet paved the way. Arbiter, Miranda and Johnson did not. I imagine they hijacked a Covenant ship, like Rtas went off to do in the last level of Halo 2, and took it to Earth while Rtas rounded up ships to quarantine High Charity. They arrived while the Keyship was still maintaining station near Io, and waited as the orbital defence collapsed and the Keyship moved in, allowing the Master Chief to jump ship. [[Halo: Uprising]]. Also, [http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&cid=16989 Halo 3: ODST].


:Edit: Ah, read your question again. Specifically about ''how'' they got back, not why they got there before the Chief - well, a Covenant ship seems the only possible way, unless they linked up with the [[UNSC Paris|Paris]], [[UNSC Redoubtable|Redoubtable]] and [[UNSC Coral Sea|Coral Sea]] - but as human ships, they would be much slow. So my bet is Covenant, and probably the aforementioned cruiser captured by Rtas. -- [[User:Specops306|<b><font color=indigo>Specops306</font></b>]] [[halofanon:user:Specops306|<u><i><font color=blue><sup>Autocrat</sup></font></i></u>]] [[User talk:Specops306|<u><i><font color=purple><sup>Qur'a 'Morhek</sup></font></i></u>]] 03:02, 2 December 2011 (EST)

I know it's silly to discuss it now when we have Halo 2 Anniversary, but I am genuinely curious what people think the odds are of this, since Halo 3's graphics have aged a little better than its two predecessors had before their respective anniversaries. But there are probably still ways Halo 3 could benefit from the same treatment someday. What does everyone else think? Are the odds good or bad considering these facts? Purely curious. I mean by the time 2017 rolls around, there is a good chance Halo 3's graphics will look dated next to the newly remastered games and anything from Halo Reach onward.[[User:262VigilantGuardian|262VigilantGuardian]] ([[User talk:262VigilantGuardian|talk]]) 17:50, 29 September 2015 (EDT)

And the awesome thing is that this is only for the spartans, if bungie adds the elites again there might be a lot of ther things to add to them, maybe you can even change their armor to make them look like commanders or the guard.<br>[[User:Radzon|Radzon]] 13:37, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
 
Imagine going into multiplayer as a [[Heretic]] Elite!! or swapping out your shoulder and thigh guards to be an honour guard! there's heaps that can be done for the Elites, perhaps not as much as for the Spartans, but still a lot. Just wondering, but with these innovations, is there any practical reason the Brute's can't be in multiplayer?<br>[[Image:HalfJaw03.jpg|30px]] [[User:Specops306|<font color=purple>Kora ‘Morhekee]]</font> <sup>[[User talk:Specops306|<font color=black>The Battle-Net</font>]]</sup> <sub>[[Special:Contributions/Specops306|<font color=purple>My Conquests.</font>]]</sub> 20:07, 3 June 2007 (UTC)
 
The SPI-looking armor has been comfirmed to actuallly be EVA (Extra-Vehicular Activity) armor and the unknown is CQB (Close Quarters Battle) armor. <br> Anonymous 11:01, 3 June 2007 (EST)
 
True. I cannot wait to play in a suit of EVA.

:Wow! This is beyond what I thought they were gonna do. If you go on youtube you can find videos of people customizing there character yet it's mainly only color and the little embled picture. Also, if you look at the picture above and the picture with the vehicles. You can see similarities. Like they both say "Halo Goes SuperNova" and they both have characters with SPI Armor. Look. The guy with the Rocket Launcher on the back of the Mongoose has the same armor as one of the guys in the pic above and the Spartan driving the Brute Chopper also has the armor.

look closely at the picture... what do you see? on the far bottom right? it says continued, so it could be that other vehicles could be on a different page. and didn't show it because it might have a mauler on it, (ghost too, but because of the mauler, they probably couldn't show the whole page...)

The speculated SPI armor may not be SPI. On HBO they have a post and it's talking about the new armor types. SPI is listed as EVA armor. it stands for Extra-Vechicular Activity. Evidence is it supports a shield, and it has a Mjolnir body armor insted of the SPI bulky armor.[[User:Darth Gree|'''<font color="olive">Spartans</font>''']] [[User Talk:Darth Gree|'''<font color="brown">With</font>''']] [[Special:Contributions/Darth Gree|'''<font color="purple">SPI ROCK</font>''']]

The article is too long[edit]

In my oppinion the article is unnecessarily long, perhaps instead of having a elaborate list of all the weapons in the game, have just a very short section regarding the subject and provide a link to a main article named "weapons in Halo 3" or something.

Ok, that was maybe a bad example, just apply it to the storyline section or multiplayer instead --Maiar 04:59, 16 February 2009 (UTC)

A little help?[edit]

i would just like to know which map has the greatest forge allowence for explosive objects (fusion coils, plasma batterys, propane tanks, mongeese, etc) out of the origional came-with-game maps. and if you could suggest the best way to contain the pile without reducing the boom-boom that would be appreachiated. and the best detonator to maximize KABOOM.--Maiar 04:39, 6 February 2009 (UTC)

What are you trying to do? For most things I'd use Sandtrap because there are large open areas and the map is huge. To contain the explosion you should build a cage of boxes. A good detonater would be a well placed spike grenade. John95 02:08, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

Sounds like someone wants a BIG BOOM...that might last forever for all we know :)Papayaking 22:46, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Nationwide Sickness[edit]

I think it should also be noted on this article that a large percentage of the U.S. population was struck by a sudden virus on the day of this game's release. People everywhere were calling in sick to their schools and jobs coincidentally on the same day Halo 3 was released. I think Halo 3 may have some part in this grand conspiracy. ;)

I was sick that day! John95 02:08, 23 July 2009 (UTC)

It's the halo virus...and it's a good one too!Papayaking 22:48, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

The BEST map for forging is Sandbox. Everything on the Map is available to delete.

Images for plot section[edit]

A few more images for the plot section would make it look better, in my opinion. The 888th Avatar (Talk) 13:28, 27 February 2009 (UTC)

Plot Error, Re: High Charity Pelican[edit]

The Pelican that was found on High Charity could not have come from the "Halo 2 era" as stated in the article because it was surrounded by dead *uninfected* marines with an active radio beacon. The Pelicans that were scattered around High Charity from the In Amber Clad were loaded with Flood and certainly would not be in radio contact anymore.

Show Refs[edit]

Umm, the game footage of Halo 3 can also be seen on a Hallmark Channel Movie, don't know the name, but as soon as I heard SPARTAN death screams, I ran in. Anyways, the trivia should be updated to show the reference. If anyone knows the movie, reply here and put it in the trivia section.

HELP ME!!![edit]

I recently plugged my Xbox 360 arcade into the internet and (despite my pathetic little memory card now filled to the brink with compleatly pointless but apparently essential updates) it keps telling me that i don't have permission to play online. I payed 300 fucking dollars for the son of a bitch then 80 for halo 3 (and certain amounts for a few other games) and another 32 for a few meters of ethernet cable. $400 dosn't get me the right to online play?

Do i have to buy a gold membership too? *tut tut* and i chose an Xbox over a PS3 because i thought it would be cheaper. your pissed-offedly Maiar 08:51, 31 March 2009 (UTC). (AKA(only to those on halo 2 vista so far) Asgl Motosee)

If the box weas second-hand, it may be a setting. You might want to try checking the child settings and changing them. Regardless, an Xbox Live customer support service might be a better place for advice. -- Administrator Specops306 - Qur'a 'Morhek Honour Light Your Way! 09:36, 31 March 2009 (UTC)
it was new but thanx for the tip

You need a gold membership.

Wow, all that just to play live? If you were smart, you would had save the money for something else instead. Or just try to play live in your friend's house. P.S. See kids? This is what happens when you really want something badly and you're willing to do anything for it. --Ultra Force 01:36, January 13, 2010 (UTC)

Halo 3 Windows?[edit]

Anybody know when they'll make this one available for PCs? I don't have the money for an Xbox, but I wan this game. Does Microsoft have any plans to make it available to PC gamers? Godzillafan93 16:50, 28 April 2009 (UTC)

I don't believe Microsoft have any plans of releasing this on PC, for a start the game system is a lot more advanced than the other two Halo games. Also while it is still popular (which I think it will always be) they will not want to bring it out on PC as they want people to buy XBoxes, and also if it was on PC there would be an availability of easy modding and maybe even hacking, which would definitely not be good for Microsoft or Bungie! Kawplach 21:40, 28 April 2009 (GMT)


THey made a PC version of Halo 2, I think it's just a matter of time till there is a PC version. Other games have just as good graphics, like Call of duty 4 and world at war and there on the PC

Yeah i agree, it would also be unfair towards pc gamers to bring halo 1 and 2 to the pc, let halo 2 end in a terrible way and then not bringing part 3 to the pc. (Because halo 2 and 3 are actually just one game, with halo 2 you have only half a game it doesn't have an ending). But considiring the time they took to get halo 2 to the pc then you might have to wait a pretty long fucking while. That's why i'm happy to have an xbox360 xD.--84.87.173.45 21:01, 14 May 2009 (UTC)

Halo 2 does have an ending. It's called a cliffhanger. And PC games in general have better graphics. Crysis would melt an Xbox Elite on the lowest graphics settings.


jeez i would really like it on PC. We should all get together, go to Bungie, and makem' make it!!!--Arabsbananas 04:27, 29 July 2009 (UTC)

I don't believe Bungie would have very much to do with the PC version. Remember, Gearbox did Halo: CE and Hired Gun, a Microsoft team, did Halo 2 Vista with only a little help from Bungie. Most likely, either a third party developer like Gearbox or Microsoft's own team, similar to 343 Industries ;) will develop the PC version, so keep an eye on them.

oh. well I hope they do.Arabsbananas 16:10, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

Bungie have said the reason why Halo 3 WILL NOT be available for PC is because the memory requirements are immense. Halo 3 would require 3 terabytes of memory to play on your computer. And no computer in the world has anything close to that. That's the reason why Halo 3 won't be available for PC for a long time. End of story. --T 3 UserWiki:Thunderstream328|2]] 8 16:15, 19 August 2009 (UTC)

Yup. You have to get one to play Halo 3. And if you don't, oh well. --T 3 UserWiki:Thunderstream328|2]] 8 19:43, 20 August 2009 (UTC)

Looked it up and the Xbox 360 can't run 3 terabytes of memory either.Arabsbananas 18:58, 24 August 2009 (UTC)

I don't have Halo 3, and I know about the story. It's because I watched the gameplay on youtube. Isn't that a good idea? Watching the Covenant....I mean Flood....I mean humans kick-ass. Heh! Yeah...the humans...yeah. The Covenant...boo...they...suck... ....... yeah. Woo! Humans! Heh heh! Eh? Ummm...okay... --Mega Sean 45 02:24, October 24, 2009 (UTC)

I've been doing alot of research and heres what I found. After rummaging through useless links and blogs, I fould something odd. In a recent E-mail sent to suscribers of the Games for Windows Download service, one the games showed in the LINK image and on the page of the site shows "Halo 3" as a possible future download. Going into the link however, only shows Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 2. Someone jumping the gun on a possible "Halo 3 PC" announcement?? Or perhaps a mistake?? Remember, a PC version of the other games took about 2-3 years to complete. If they fallow the pervious pattern (This is speculation), it would be realesed about 2010 Also, Gearbox has some kind of "Huge" project going along. Just thought I'd let you guys know.--CR8ZY-ArAB 18:12, December 8, 2009 (UTC)

Guess we know now xD --Storm (talk) Further games will be crossplay, doubt 343i have any plans on making ports for Halo 3, Reach & 4 since MCC is a thing since 2014. Storm (talk)

7 reference?[edit]

Well, considering the paranoia about "7" in their games, I think I might point out an odd little coincidence. The very name of their third instalment is a seven reference "Halo 3" 4 letters + 3. lol, just a coincidence, but still, I find it entertaining for the 7 paranoids. "Die?

I was wondering[edit]

From what I can tell, people are saying halo 3 is the end of the halo TRILOGY, not series. What I'm saying is that trilogy means three right? So nothing past three would be in the trilogy. I'm just saying they might be trying to trick us into thinking there will be no Halo 4, then make one. I know its kind of...speculation, but I wanted to see if its possible. Asking HERE rather then some random halopedia forum with possibly extremely un-reliable sources made sence to me.Papayaking 22:42, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Nay, bungie has said that this is the end of this story Arc, mayhaps there will be others, but more then likely not to do witht he same events, shaped around the mc "Die? Didn't you know?...Spartans don't die." 10:52, 26 August 2009 (UTC)

Re: Trilogy. There were 5 books in the Hitchhiker's Guide trilogy.

Re:But the Hitchhiker's Guide was originally intended to have just three books. After the fourth, they retained "trilogy" as a joke.

Re: The Inheritance Cylce was supposed to be a trilogy as well and Bungie will not make anymore Halo games after Reach. However, someone else may if we're lucky. XxFOWLAxxBOxX 22:06, August 3, 2010 (UTC)

matchmaking levels[edit]

Why am I only able to play a few levels on matchmaking for xbox live? The levels I play are: last resort, valhalla, construct, the pit, boundless, narrows, gaurdian, and high ground. What about the others like: Isolation, sand trap, epitath, cold storage, and the heroic maps?

plot...[edit]

2 years later and i still do not get how the flood were defeated... surely they were not ALL on high charity???

They weren't aiming to destroy all of them, only the ones on the Ark. And thus, the Gravemind.We are dropping into Hell troopers, cause you forgot to pray to God! 20:34, September 29, 2009 (UTC)

Wouldn't the flood just make another gravemind?

Probably, but it takes time, and they need lots of biomass, so there would be a pause. We are dropping into Hell troopers, cause you forgot to pray to God! 20:34, September 29, 2009 (UTC)

But surely there would be enough biomass on a covenant crusier to make a new one??

But they have to get one first. Besides, they can probbaly make another one on Installation 05, cause in the hologram, it has enough flood biomass to make fifty lol. But then, they are still stuck, until the next group of people blunder onto it. We are dropping into Hell troopers, cause you forgot to pray to God! 21:16, September 30, 2009 (UTC)

which hologram are we taking about? and surely there were other infected cruisers other than the one that infected Voi? (PS: thanks for some of this, i understand the ending much more, i could never get the flood section quite worked out...)

In the level The covenant, the citadel has the holograms of the rings, installation 05 is the brown/tan one. As for the cruisers, the Sangheili fleets have made a quarantine, and are destroying anything that leaves the ring, and any cruisers that get captured. We are dropping into Hell troopers, cause you forgot to pray to God! 07:35, October 1, 2009 (UTC)

I don't even know what you are talking about, my friend. Also, sign your name after this is done pressing the console button 4 times? --Mega Sean 45 02:28, October 24, 2009 (UTC)

It's called the Security/Katana glitch. Sorry but it will not return until you earn an additional amount Gamerscore. So if you want your precious Katana back, you should go and get some Halo 3 achievements.--<SCROTE> 02:38, October 24, 2009 (UTC)

how did they beat the chief to earth?[edit]

OK, explain this bit of weirdness to me.

At the end of Halo 2, R'tas Vatamee (I believe that's Half Jaw's name) commandeered a Covenant battleship, presumably the Shadow of Intent. While the Arbiter, Johnson, and Miranda were battling Tartarus on Installation 05, Master Chief was on his way to Earth on the Forerunner Keyship.

Yet somehow, in the beginning of Halo 3 when the Chief finishes his joyride to the surface of the Earth after blasting his way off the Keyship, the Arbiter, Johnson, and Miranda weren't just already on the planet, but had already been established as base commanders and had been defending Earth from Covenant Loyalist attacks. Not only that, but after the Keyship lands and opens the portal to the Ark, THEN the Shadow of Intent appears!

I've always assumed that they all made it back to Earth on the Shadow of Intent, under Half-Jaw's command, but this doesn't seem to be the case. I'm finding it a little hard to believe that he dropped them off, went back to get Elite Shipmasters, and came back again (I imagine that there's travel time when it comes to interstellar Slipspace travel, and time was not something they had to waste). So how did the Arbiter, Johnson, and Miranda get back to Earth? And how on Reach did they get to Earth so quickly as to establish themselves and "settle in" (as much as one can "settle in" during a war) before the Chief could so much as get off the ship he was on? Reminds me of the Halo Wars Arbiter and his apparent ability to teleport from planet to planet between cutscenes. Son of God-Enel 03:25, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

In Halo wars, they skipped out on the weeks f travel, making it seem instantaneous.

As for halo 3, Truths ship may not have gone straight to earth. Oh and btw, Rtas was talking about a CCS-Battlecruiser, not a Assault carrier, so he wasn't trying to recapture the Shadow of Intent. ~Enlightment~ ~Fighting Vandalism and Watching Unregistereds~ 13:09, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

From the official timeline:
  • November 3: Prophet of Truth leaves High Charity for Earth in Forerunner dreadnought.
  • November 8: The Forerunner dreadnought arrives in the Sol system and proceeds to Earth at near relativistic speed.
  • November 17: The Forerunner dreadnought arrives at Earth. SPARTAN-117 ejects and lands in the Kenyan jungle.
Regret's carrier made the trip from Earth to Delta Halo in thirteen days. If Miranda, Johnson and the Arbiter left just after the ending scene of Halo 2, they'd have a chance to make it to Earth a day before the Chief. Plus, they might've been using a faster Covenant vessel than a carrier, arriving even earlier. I always thought the Fleet of Retribution spared one of their fastest ships and sent them on their way while trying to maintain the quarantine of High Charity.
Still, the timeline seems to have been purposefully made up to make it possible for Johnson, the Arbiter and Miranda to get to Earth before the Chief. There isn't really a good explanation for why the Dreadnought would hang out in Sol, or approach Earth at "near-relativistic speeds" for nine days instead of just directly landing there. Unless Truth wanted to make sure all orbital and groundside threats are removed first. Halo: Uprising showed the Chief doing stuff in the Dreadnought while it was in Sol, but that didn't really seem like nine days. Also, there's seemingly a conflict with Ghosts of Onyx, which seems to imply that the UNSC Dusk made it to Earth in mere hours following the Dreadnought's slipspace wake. Of course, it was never directly stated it was caused by the Dreadnought, but one can figure it out. Oh well, I guess we can assume it was an anomaly of something, as a sloppy explanation. --Jugus (Talk | Contribs) 14:31, January 28, 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for the info. I'm just going to pretend that Truth's ship stopped off at another part of space, rendevouxed (sp?) with other Brute ships in other systems (perhaps they had gotten the signal from Truth to mutiny against the Elite Shipmasters or were watching Truth's anti-Elite rants on Covenant Fox News (right before Master Chief showed up in that level)) in order to build up a larger fleet to attack Earth. I'm pretending that the Chief stayed in the shadows since otherwise he'd be facing impossible odds and perhaps wouldn't even have been able to get to Earth otherwise (even without all the enemy soldiers and ships, without Cortana I doubt he'd be able to fly a Covenant/Forerunner starship alone with no crew). I like that idea.

Of course, that timeline raises the question of what everyone on In Amber Clad were doing during the 13 days it took to get to Delta Halo. Were Chief and Johnson sitting on the ODST pods for 2 weeks? Wow, I love Halo's story, but it can really get sloppy at times.Son of God-Enel 02:06, January 31, 2010 (UTC)

Ranked Infection[edit]

On hallloween Bungie has the only Ranked infection. I think that they should have ranked infection every other time they have infection. anyone agree with me?

Being very good at Infection i would crave for this even if it were only in Halo 5. Don't get me wrong Halo 5's Multiplayer is good, hope 343 bring this back i enjoyed it so much. --Storm (talk)

Game on Demand[edit]

Ok now Halo 3 is in the Xboz Live Marketplace and whoever is gonna buy need to have 30 bucks. But is it possible to buy it with microsoft points? If so how much? Please do not delete this post unless is answer by another person. Nathan900130 14:56 September 4 2010 (UTC)

They went with Rtas. deep. 165.138.37.177 13:50, 1 December 2011 (EST)

The Keyship stayed back while the rest of the Covenant fleet paved the way. Arbiter, Miranda and Johnson did not. I imagine they hijacked a Covenant ship, like Rtas went off to do in the last level of Halo 2, and took it to Earth while Rtas rounded up ships to quarantine High Charity. They arrived while the Keyship was still maintaining station near Io, and waited as the orbital defence collapsed and the Keyship moved in, allowing the Master Chief to jump ship. Halo: Uprising. Also, Halo 3: ODST.
Edit: Ah, read your question again. Specifically about how they got back, not why they got there before the Chief - well, a Covenant ship seems the only possible way, unless they linked up with the Paris, Redoubtable and Coral Sea - but as human ships, they would be much slow. So my bet is Covenant, and probably the aforementioned cruiser captured by Rtas. -- Specops306 Autocrat Qur'a 'Morhek 03:02, 2 December 2011 (EST)

Halo 3 Anniversary?[edit]

I was just wondering and wanted to know what people thought........Does anyone think the odds are good that we'll eventually see a Halo 3 Anniversary by the time 2017 rolls around? I know it's silly to discuss it now when we have Halo 2 Anniversary, but I am genuinely curious what people think the odds are of this, since Halo 3's graphics have aged a little better than its two predecessors had before their respective anniversaries. But there are probably still ways Halo 3 could benefit from the same treatment someday. What does everyone else think? Are the odds good or bad considering these facts? Purely curious. I mean by the time 2017 rolls around, there is a good chance Halo 3's graphics will look dated next to the newly remastered games and anything from Halo Reach onward.262VigilantGuardian (talk) 17:50, 29 September 2015 (EDT)

I would love for there to be a remake of Halo 3 but we've got that with the MCC but can't kill the dream of an authentic recreation with full UI or maybe MCC get an overhaul for the 73456545665455678th time? Storm (talk)
