Halo 3 Original Soundtrack (2-CD Set)

From the most successful entertainment launch in history, comes the most anticipated video game soundtrack of the holiday season. Bungie created a new variation on the Game's musical themes this time around. Martin O'Donnell, Bungie's composer incorporated a full live orchestra and chorus which goes "above and beyond" what they've done in the past. Album produced by Nile Rodgers.

Customer Review: Above and beyond the rest!

There is no doubt that the previous Halo soundtracks have been great and mesmerising with a heroic feeling. However with Halo 3 composers Martin O'Donnell and Michael Salvatori seemed to have had a bigger budget and were able to hire a larger orchestra. Here they brought back some of the familiar tracks and tweaked them producing an outstanding soundtrack seem fit for the most successful and recognised video game in history, the unforgettable Halo 3.



Here the content is presented on two great discs, disc one containg 15 tracks and disc two containing 16 tracks. If you enjoyed Halo 3 then I recommend that you grab the soundtrack to relive those great memories of when you fought for mankind.

Customer Review: The BEST one yet!!

The HALO 3 soundtrack is more of an orchestra type of sound more so than the other before it. HALO 2 soundtrack had a lot of popular rock music in it, as well as techo.



This soundtrack brings a return of many of the strong themes present in HALO and HALO 2, as well as Marty O'donell's talented use of variation, just like a master composer. I can find no fault in this soundtrack. The music is more riveting, more vivid and clear and has a great dynamic range, especially in the vocal choir. The Flood portions of music were truly horrific, while titles like Tribute or Greatest Journey are really touching.



In my opinion, this soundtrack is the epitome in soundtracks. It's what you'd expect to hear in top-budget movies. This represents the culmination of catching themes and beautiful music in a 7+ year long series. My hats off to the sound team at Bungie Studios, and whoever they may have worked with. And a big congrats and thank you to Marty to creating such great music!
