Halo 3 is still the best Halo game, and I honestly don’t even think it’s close.

I'm coming around to that position. It had been so long that I'd actually forgotten parts of the Covenant, and found it hard to believe that so many great moments were all in one level. Still think Reach was THE fully mature Halo in terms of feature set, but I also loved the story. I'm biased by a lot of nostalgia for it, too, some of which is wrapped up in bungie.org

The underrated jewel of the franchise is ODST. Stellar soundtrack, storytelling, environments, voice acting, and gameplay. Not epic In scale, but nearly perfect for what it is.
