The latest must-have game to hit the market, Halo 3 for the Xbox 360, has received a rave review from Australian IT.
Although he found the initial stages to be slightly underwhelming, reviewer Stuart Kennedy changed his mind after the first tough fight.
"It forced me to really think about weapons and tactics, followed by some fast-paced fire and manoeuvring around a river landing coupled with a shimmering first look at a new Covenant (one set of resident baddies in Halo) drop ship," he said.
"I was hooked, and time began to slip away. Excellent pace is what makes Halo 3's single-player game so good."
Particular highlights include the intelligent enemy AI, enemies talking to each other in battle sequences, and the graphics which are a noticeable step up from Halo 2.
"Add that to a great game soundtrack and a deep multiplayer game and it's easy to see why Halo 3 has, in its first week on the market, already sold itself into history," he concluded.
