Overall, we're pretty excited to see Halo 3 get some cool new content. Let us know what you think down below! Also, if you haven't gotten it yet, we highly recommend Halo: The Master Chief Collection. It has all of the pre-Xbox One Halo shooters in one bundle that has an awesome $40 price, meaning it offers amazing value. It's available on Xbox One and PC (both Steam and the Windows 10 Store). Halo 3: ODST and Halo 4 haven't fully released on PC yet, but Halo: Reach, Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, Halo 2: Anniversary, and Halo 3 are all available to play on PC.
