"the second best selling game in the Halo franchise"
In the article, it states that Halo 3 is the "second best selling game in the Halo franchise," but no credible source (at least none that are up-to-date) reaffirms this claim. According to the article, List of best-selling video games, Halo 3 has sold 14+ million units and is far ahead in sales than any Halo game before and after it. Can anyone change this line? Thank you. 2602:306:C5B4:4B79:4578:671B:6864:6A35 (talk) 20:07, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
You're right. I looked through the article history and someone changed it from best selling to second best selling without any explanation or source. Though I would expect Halo 3 is still the best selling game in the series, I've removed the statement since we don't have any recent and reliably sourced concrete sales figures to support the claim. --The1337gamer (talk) 20:41, 12 February 2017 (UTC)
I was planning on transferring the refs to the main body (assuming they were stated there). Although, you have already done it so thank you. Spy-cicle💥 17:55, 17 February 2020 (UTC)
Easter Eggs
The game contains a plethora of Easter Eggs (hidden clues and left in the final product by the game developers).
Reopening. Please add to the "modes" section or any other place deemed appropriate: On January 13, 2022, the Halo 3 multiplayer matchmaking servers on the Xbox 360 platform were shutdown permanently by 343 Industries. As of 13 January 2022, Halo multiplayer continues to be available through The Master Chief Collection.84.250.14.116 (talk) 11:03, 14 January 2022 (UTC)
Makuch, Eddie (January 13, 2022). "As Halo 3's Xbox 360 Servers Are Turned Off Forever, Fans Share Tributes To Bungie's Classic". GameSpot. Red Ventures. Archived from the original on January 13, 2022. Retrieved January 14, 2022. It's the end of an era, as January 13 marks the server shutdown date for Halo 3 and other classic, much-loved Xbox 360 Halo games. 343 Industries is "sunsetting" the original Xbox 360 online servers for Halo, Halo 4, Halo: Reach, and other Halo titles as it prioritizes newer games. While Halo 3 and the others remain playable online through Halo: The Master Chief Collection, the original Xbox 360 servers are now offline for good.
Not done: please provide reliable sources that support the change you want to be made. ScottishFinnishRadish (talk) 23:16, 13 January 2022 (UTC)
