Well, we’ve gone far enough with talking about the Halo franchise on this list. As sad as it is to say, we’ve come to the final entry for the Halo franchise on this list, but I have saved the best (Debatable) for last. Having played the first two games, I was more than excited to see what Halo 3 would do. And it blew me away (Get it? Cause Halo 2 had Breaking Benjami- Okay)
So Halo 3 follows, who else, Master Chief, as he, and now the Elites, face off what remains of the Covenant, all while Master Chief has to deal with being separated from Cortana, his partner from the previous two games. I was excited enough when Halo 3 introduced a new character to play as. But then they amp it up even more with the ability to play two player campaign mode, with you being able to have first player as Chief and second as the Arbiter. That alone made me more than happy to play this game And man, was I happy for it. The jump from original Xbox to 360 graphics was clear, especially if you played the original games first. Looking at these HD graphics compared to the original 3D was breathtaking. The environments were beautiful, the character designs were impressive. You could see every pus-filled malformed boil on the Flood and I was disgusted. I loved it. I loved going through this game, experiencing the new locations, the new enemy types, and the new vehicles. That chopper is probably my favorite vehicle in the Halo franchise. But my favorite thing in Halo 3 is the characterization of Chief himself. In the previous games, he was this stoic badass, your typical first person shooter protagonist. But now, in Halo 3, he’s more calm, more sympathetic, and a lot more open to his partner, especially to Cortana. Seeing him in this game, which was a massive change to how I used to see him, really surprised and I was more than happy to see it. I thought he was just some muscle headed macho dudebro, but no, under that thick green armor lies an emotional man, and I love it so much. And Arbiter’s there to. I don’t know, I think he got the short end of the stick with this story. But hey, having a friend to experience this game with is more than enough.
Halo 3 was, in my opinion, the perfect way to end the franchise. I don’t care how many sequels it gets, how many times 343 butchers the original game. To me, Halo 3 will always be the spiritual finale to the Halo franchise and I love it so much. I never played Reach, but I hear good things, and it’s a prequel, so that’s fine. To the best first person shooter franchise I had the pleasure to experience, I salute you.
College Administrator: So, you’ve been involved with quite a few criminal charges such as assault, arson, destruction of property, felonious assault, and one incident where you dumped blood onto the heads of a group of school children because you didn’t like them shouting the number 21? Am I correct?....... Well then (Looks through the files) I have to say, son…. That a man of your nature is only seen once in a lifetime. A man like you takes lots of balls, son. Lots of balls. And you’ve got them. Welcome to Clearwater University.

Greetings everyone. Since my favorite time of the year, Halloween, is almost upon us, I wanted to do something very special. Sure, the same old “Top Ten Whatever” will still be there, and will be up every Saturday of the month, so expect five top tens every Saturday this month. But, even bigger news, thanks to my Corner of Horror article, I’ve got something REALLY special. And what might that be? Well, on October, for the next 31 days, I am going to pull out a random horror movie that I have lying around and review it. These reviews may not be as lengthy as most, but I will try my best to talk about a good (Or most likely bad) Horror movie. “But Wind, doesn’t Cinemassacre do this every October with Monster Madness?” Shut the hell up, I say to those who think that. Just enjoy this year of October, enjoy Halloween, and enjoy all the new Corner of Horrors coming up. I know I will.
