GET THEM ALL!!!! Just kidding ^^^^^but ^^^^^not ^^^^^really

If you are interested in the story I would recommend getting Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary first in order to get an idea of what Halo is about. It is basically the first Halo game, Halo: Combat Evolved, but remastered for the Xbox 360 on its 10 year anniversary. It has the entire first game's campaign and a multiplayer portion using the engine from Halo: Reach (we'll get to that in a moment).

If you are still interested in the story, go for Halo 2 next. It is for the original Xbox, but is also compatible with the 360 so you can play the campaign. It no longer has online multiplayer, though, so it is only good for local custom games and the campaign.

If you purchased Halo 2 you are probably interested enough in the Halo universe to continue the Master Chief's story. The next game will be Halo 3. Halo 3 is a great game and still has online multiplayer, though it is fairly sparse right now.

Note: Halo 3 will become available for free download on July 1st if you have Xbox Live Gold.

Halo 4 is the next game in line that follows the story of the Master Chief, however, there are two other games that were released between them.

Halo 3:ODST is one of these two games. It takes place during the events of Halo 2, but you play as a normal soldier rather than the Master Chief who is a Spartan. Spartans are basically supersoldiers. Normal humans who were augmented to be faster, stronger, and smarter than normal people. It is a fun game and comes with the Halo 3: ODST campaign and a second disc that contains all the multiplayer maps for Halo 3 which allows you to play Halo 3 online.

The other game is Reach. In Halo: Reach you play as a Spartan supersoldier, but not the Master Chief. This game takes places chronologically before the first Halo game, Halo: CE, but was released in 2010. It still has a decent multiplayer population, but I am not sure if is more than Halo 4.

The final game is Halo 4, the newest in the series. It follows the story of the Master Chief after Halo 3, and I believe it has the most populated multiplayer as of right now. Though, the numbers are still fairly low compared to other shooter games out there. This will be the game you will want if you are only interested in online play.

Too Long Didn't Read

If you are interested in campaign and storyline go for:

  • Halo: CEA

  • Halo 2

  • Halo 3

  • Halo 4

  • Halo 3: ODST ^*

  • Halo: Reach ^

    ^
    Play these any time you want after Halo 3.

    If you are only interested in playing online multiplayer go for:

  • Halo 4

  • Halo: Reach

  • Halo 3 (which will be free on July 1st!)

    I would recommend Halo 4 over Reach, hopefully someone will be better informed on multiplayer populations than I am.

    Hope this helps! Let me know if you have any other questions! :D

I liked the two original Xbox games a lot, so I'd say start with Halo 3. It continues that story. or if money is no object, start at the beginning with Halo CE, which recently got an anniversary release for Xbox 360.

Not counting the RTS game Halo Wars, chronologically, Halo Reach (the most recently released new Halo game) is the beginning. I thought it was a great game, I played it quite a bit, including the multiplayer, which I imagine is still alive and well. It's worth playing, and stands pretty well by itself, since it is before the Master Chief trilogy.

halo 3 is $9. I for one would be down for some infected on that huge sandmap. driving around in the warthogs being chased by super fast low-gravity enemies is some of the best times I've had playing video games.

u/NotZero · 1 pointr/xbox360

Halo ODST and Halo 3 are both under $20.

I think Reach is a better game, but it's $40 on Amazon.

Here's my reason for why the "two free games" from microsoft is absolutely pathetic.

The games are fucking ancient! Assassins Creed II and Halo 3??? Are you shitting me? LOOK! You can buy a used (lol irony) copy of Halo 3 for 3 dollars!

Here is sony's. They have been doing this every single month for a long time now. They release true powerhouse and NEW games monthly. Not two old ass games. Halo 3 came out in 2007!!!! Assassins Creed came out in 2010.

It's a joke and it's pathetic. Microsoft is acting like they are Jesus Christ reincarnate and all of us peons should be groveling at their generosity and they release old games... tired old games and act like it's so awesome.

It's not that they're copying ( even though they are) that's just oh so laughable to me. it's that they are doing such a shitty job!

It is pretty much exactly like the anniversary gift thing. Sony gives you ten bucks on your anniversary. Microsoft gave you 25 cents.

I am not being a dick but Halo 3 is cheap as hell. Yeah of course free is always better.

On gamestop its $7 used and $20 new. If you hate gamestop on amazon its $12 used and $18 new.

Or if you want you can spend $14 for ODST new and get the Halo3 multiplayer with all maps instead of waiting for M$'s bullshit.
