Halo 3 is a shooter game where players primarily experience gameplay from a first-person perspective. Much of the gameplay takes place on foot, but also includes segments focused on vehicular combat. The balance of weapons and objects in the game was adjusted to better adhere to the "Golden Triangle of Halo": these are weapons, grenades, and melee attacks, which are available to a player in most situations. Players may dual-wield some weapons, forgoing the use of grenades and melee attacks in favor of the combined firepower of two weapons. Many weapons available in previous installments of the series return with minor cosmetic and power alterations. Unlike previous installments, the player's secondary weapon is visible on their player model, holstered or slung across the player's back.
Halo 3 introduces "support weapons", which are cumbersome two-handed weapons that slow the player, but offer greatly increased firepower in return. In addition to weapons, the game contains a new class of gear called equipment; these items have various effects, ranging from defensive screens to shield regeneration and flares. Only one piece of equipment can be carried at a time. The game's vehicular component has been expanded with new drivable and AI-only vehicles.

Read moreLa culminación de la gran saga comenzada por el primer halo cierra esta primera trilogía sentando cátedra sobre como se tiene que plantear una historia, como se debe continuar y expandir y como debe finalizar. la perfección a nivel jugable, la innovación metiendo nuevas mecánicas y diferentes formas de afrontar los combates, la mejora en la IA, el encontrar un equilibrio entre niveles enormes y momentos de pausa, la bso, la ambientación. Todo en esta primera trilogía ha sido una maravilla, mejorando y no aburriendo, abriendo nuevos frentes en una historia que cierra increíble, una misión final para el recuerdo... todo en esta trilogía ha sido demasiado grande y entiendo que la gente se decepcionase con la nueva, espero que halo infinite de un cierre a la altura de lo que este juego supuso para la época. Una saga que ha hecho historia y que lamento no haber jugado antes.
