FPSというゲーム上、大体攻撃には銃火器を使用する。チーフは2種類まで武器を持つことが可能で、それらの武器はステージ中で拾うか、敵から奪う。あるいは味方と交換をすることによって入手することが出来る。なお、サブ・マシンガンなどの小型で片手持ちが可能な武器に関しては両手に装備することが可能で(いわゆる二丁拳銃)、その際は最大3丁の武器を携帯することが可能である。, 武器のほかには戦車、ジープ、戦闘機などの乗り物が登場し、それらに乗ってゲームを進めていくこともある。ただし、乗り物は一人で乗っても力を発揮しないものが存在し、シングルプレイであれば味方の海兵隊と。マルチプレイであれば他のプレイヤーと乗ることが鍵となる。また、『Halo 2』以降からは敵の操縦する乗り物を強奪することが可能となっており、今回も同様である。,

そしておとりとしての逃走を続けるうちに、キース艦長の戦艦オータム号は謎に包まれたリング形状の惑星「ヘイロー」を発見する。マスターチーフや海兵隊たちはそこでコヴナントと闘い続けるうちに「ヘイローの正体」を知ることとなるのであった。,

一方、UNSCは月面での決戦で敗北。艦隊を失った結果、地球の防衛ラインを失ってしまい、コヴナントは地球を占領。そして彼らは長年探していた 「総て(すべて)のヘイロー」を遠隔操作する「鍵」の発掘を開始した。コヴナントが求める「大いなる旅立ち」への切符の所在は他のどの惑星でもなく、人類の母星である地球に存在したのであった。その鍵の捜索の過程でコヴナントの地球蹂躙は本格化し、人類の滅亡は時間の問題となっていた。, だが、まだ人類にチャンスは残されていた。コヴナントの調停者であるアービターとその同胞であるサンヘイリ(エリート)族が人類との一時的軍事同盟を希望し、共に真実の預言者を打倒しようという。そして更に、その真実の預言者は現在人類の目と鼻の先である地球のケニアにあるニュー・モンバサにある遺跡に居るという。また、同時期にスパルタン117:マスターチーフがUNSCの元に帰還。そこでUNSCはモンバサに総攻撃を仕掛け、真実の預言者の野望を阻止するため最後の作戦を開始するのだった。, マスターチーフとアービターは、幾多の死闘を乗り越え、真実の預言者のいる場所「アーク」に辿りつく。そこは全てのHALOを遠隔操作できるシステムの存在する場所だった。ブルートたちに捕らわれたジョンソンを助けるべく、果敢にもアーク内部に強行突入するミランダ・キース中佐。しかし彼女は真実の預言者の凶弾に倒れてしまう。その直後に現れたチーフによりアークは機能を停止。「大いなる旅立ち」は直前で阻止され、真実の預言者もアービターにより刺殺された。預言者の死体をかなぐり捨て、雄叫びをあげるアービター。勝利の余韻に浸る間もなく、大量のフラッド達が襲撃してくる。,

A sequel, Halo 4, released in November 2012, was developed by new studio 343 Industries. During development, the game was divided into single player and multiplayer builds; this made debugging and testing the much smaller multiplayer files quicker. Johnson(en.Wikipedia), Halo 3 Beta Downloads via Crackdown are fixed! [17] To help players have an enjoyable time online, several peace-of-mind features are implemented within easy reach, such as avoid/feedback options on a player's service record, as well as voice chat mute straight from the in-game scoreboard. [63] An Xbox One-native version of the game, presenting the graphics at 1080p and 60 frames per second, was included as part of Halo: The Master Chief Collection for the Xbox One in 2014. The game was also the best-selling video game of 2007 in the U.S. [11] Halo 3 offers a form of file sharing, where items such as saved films, screenshots, and custom variants can all be uploaded to Bungie's official website. ほとんどの曲がサントラ公式サイトで試聴可能である。, HALOシリーズは前記のとおり、世界中から期待されている作品であり、発売までに数多くのトレイラー(予告編)が製作された。日本では発売直前に30秒バージョンのCMが流れただけであるが、米国では実写の予告編まで作成された。, ライヴ・アクション・ビデオ (Live Action Video)は上記の予告編とは異なり、ライブアクションの名前の通り実写のムービーである。バンジースタジオとWETAデジタルが共同で製作しており、監督はニール・ブロムカンプ。彼はピーター・ジャクソンのプロデュースによる映画版『Halo』の監督をすると目されていることから、これらのムービーは『Halo 3』の予告編というよりも、映画版『Halo』の予告として見るべきではないかとされる。, キャストには声優でない著名人がいる。ミランダ・キースの声優はジュリー・ベンツからジャスティス・ボルディングに、また、真実の預言者はマイケル・ウィンコットからテレンス・スタンプに変わった。, 日本語版では戦闘が激しくテンポが速いため字幕を読む暇がないことから日本語に吹き替えられている。, 本名は「ジョン」だが機密扱いとされる。またスパルタンに苗字は無い。そのCMは『Halo 3』の公式サイト(日本の特設サイトでも)視聴することが出来る。, en:Marketing for Halo 3#Live action videos, Sergeant Major A.J.
