Over 820,000 unique players enjoyed shooting each other in the face in the Halo 3 beta, official stats released by Microsoft and Bungie have revealed.
Over 12 million hours of gameplay were clocked up by gamers during the beta test period (apparently, this is equivalent to more than 1,400 years of continuous play by one person), and the new saved-film feature which allowed players to record multiplayer bouts and share them over Live saw more than 580,000 saved films created by users, representing more than 2.7 terabytes of data.
Not every Halo game has been a banger, but the franchise still has a raft of the greatest games of all time.
Infinite is a dumpster fire and as much as I like ODST, in no universe it ranks above Halo 2. This list is trash.
Best to worst: Halo 3, Halo 2, Halo Reach, Halo CE, Halo 4, Halo ODST, Halo Infinite, Halo 5.
The Xbox 360 was a fantastic console in its day with some truly classic titles, but what are the seven best games for the console?
I'll go with,
Lost Odyssey, Blue Dragon, Culdcept Saga, Shadow Complex, Ace Combat 6 with the flight stick,A Kingdom for Keflings, A World of Keflings.
Bonus Kinect Games: Happy Action Theater and Sesame Street.
*Skyrim was so bad on PS3 that it almost deserves to be #1*
Was this made by a.i.? No human being would put Shadowrun, Fable III, and Splinter Cell: Conviction into a list of the 7 best Xbox 360 games.
Would love to play Ace Combat6 on PlayStation, but Xbox decided to buy exclusivity and keep it off a competing platform.
The only mainline game I never played except for one level at a friends place. Game sold less than any other in the series if I remember correctly.
When the current gen XBOX offering is so lacking people need to refer to games released two generations back....
The Xbox 360 launched in North America 18 years ago, and is now officially old enough to buy you a drink in Europe.
Great platform, and many of its games (not bc) still hold up well to this day. Like the PS3, I keep a 360 hooked up for those games you can't play any other way.
The last gasp of greatness from XBox, you are missed, except the RROD that was lame, but amazing exclusives until the Kinect dropped.
I really enjoyed my X360, some great exclusives on it. Used to play the shit out ot Blue Dragon and Lost Odyssey, two masterpieces
Thats what happens when a game consistently kicks @ss to all those who play it. Blah blah blah halo sux. w/e look at the stats.
No? Not fun i guess...
Btw: H3 = Fun as hell! Can't wait for the final game.
"staggering"
I'm dying to play Campaign
Thats pretty amazing for a beta, wonder if bungie found out everything they wanted.
