Halo 3 continues the series trend of offering exhilarating, futuristic combat on a huge scale. While it might be a bit convoluted for some, sci-fi fans will surely appreciate this epic tale of intergalactic war. Although it's straightforward in its presentation, Halo 3 has a dense and intriguing narrative with plenty of lore to learn. After the events of the first two Halo games, Master Chief saddles up with a few ex-Covenant officers and aims to take down the leaders of the Covenant before they destroy Earth.
Following a religious prophecy, the Covenant plans to activate a series of weaponized rings known as Halos, which eradicate all organic lifeforms in a set solar-system. Taking place in the distant future, Master Chief must save Earth from total destruction after a religious pact of aliens known as the Covenant invades the planet. In Halo 3's main story campaign, players control Master Chief, a super-soldier in the United Nations Space Command military.
