I’m going to give you some of my tips to start playing Halo 3.

When I first started to play Halo 3 I had no idea what I was doing. Right now im going to give you the advantage of knowing how to get good at Halo 3. First off, you’re going to want to only play custom games until you get good. The reason for that is if you go play matchmaking when you don’t know what youre doing you are going to make it much harder to rank up later. In the custom games you are going to want to play with no radar, with a battle rifle and a sniper rifle. This will help you tremendously later on. Once you feel you are getting really good you should start playing matchmaking. The best playlists to go in to hone your skills are MLG, Team Snipers, and Team Doubles. Basically this is all you need to know to get better at Halo 3.

Xbox Headset Experience

Do you really need to pay $300 for an xbox headset? Well, it depends on the games you play and the level of gamer you are. When I first started playing Halo 3, I just used the wired and wireless headset made by Microsoft. They are both a good fit if you are a casual gamer playing for fun. But, they do break rather really easily. For instance i was playing Halo 3 one time and tried to take my wired headset off and when i was about to take it off i basically chopped it in half. Plus I’ve had also had a bad experience with the wireless headset. I was just playing on the Xbox 360 and it randomly died out and completely broke. Definitely get the wired headset if you are a casual gamer as these last a lot longer but can break easy if you are not careful with it.

But if you are a really competitive gamer the xbox headsets are definitely not a good fit.

Ive heard a lot of good reviews on the Turtle beach headsets because of their sound quality. I have gotten really good at Halo 3 and am looking to start participating in tournaments,  But sadly I don’t have anything but the xbox headsets. However there is one headset that is really cool looking, [especially in white] , has great sound quality and provides everything a competitive gamer needs in a headset, The ASTRO A40’s . All the top pros in gaming have these headsets so they can hear when people are coming up behind them. They are rather expensive but if you have the money to buy it you should get it. Unfortunately I cant afford to buy them right now, but i seriously am in love with these things. Well that pretty much sums up my Xbox headset experience.  ASTRO A40’s are the way to go if you are a serious gamer.
