Halo 3 Mod
By ibnukasim
A Halo 3 mod is generally considered to be any software modification that changes the gameplay in the super popular video game for the Xbox 360, Halo 3. There are also modifications made to make hardware fit in with the Halo world.
It takes certain tools and information to create a mod. The tools are software used to view and edit the files. There is also hardware required to allow a PC to read and write to an Xbox 360 drive. This is absolutely necessary because the Xbox 360 is not a platform on which files can be modified. In the past the hardware developers, in this case Microsoft, would make the tools available to people who pay the licensing fee. But over time, especially with Halo three mods, the community has developed a number of tools and techniques to accomplish what needs to be done for modification.
A mod also encompass, as stated earlier, physical changes to Xbox 360 console. Some people, for example,
remove the case and actually carve the words into it. They might accompany this by painting the console red, or blue, or green to match the color of the armor of the characters in the game. People have been known to damage their Xbox 360 while modding it. People often display their tricked out Xbox 360s on photo sharing sites such as Flickr, and when they attend live LAN events.
One of the things that people who are interested in the world of the Halo 3 mod try to focus on is that these should not be used for cheating. Modifications are fun to get a new twist on play, or a new look or feel for certain levels. But if they're used to make the game unfair in favor of one person or team, they destroy the overall game experience for everyone.
