Halo 3 Multiplayer Beta hit Xbox LIVE worldwide on May 16. The Halo 3 beta testing is scheduled to run until June 6. For those of you eager to get your hands on a copy of the complete official Halo 3 game for your Xbox 360, you’ll have to wait until Sept 25, 2007; you can’t own or download Halo 3 right now.

Halo 3 is the biggest release on Xbox 360 this year, and it comes earlier than previously expected. You can of course pre-order Halo 3 and there will be a few different packages to choose from : Halo 3 Legendary Edition (harder to find), Halo 3 Limited Edition and Halo 3 Standard Edition. Apparently, Halo 3 pre-orders are already at over 4 million copies in North America.

You can find Halo 3 wallpapers at the Bungie official site. Halo 3 screenshots, wallpapers and pics can also be found at IGN. Here’s a Halo 3 official video trailer :



You may also wish to visit Gamespot’s Halo 3 coverage for Halo 3 gameplay videos and high quality Halo 3 trailers.

So all in all, Halo 3 will be an overhauled version of the Halo people already love. The Halo 3 gameplay will undoubtably remain the same and the same goes for the Halo 3 multiplayer universe (if I believe Slashdot’s impressions). Why would they change a winning formula? If you really want to try something different, try this free Halo game available at download.com. It’s a nice 2-D fan-made version of Halo. Nice!
