I imagine halo ce and halo 2 pc will be played for a great time to come, console games on live have a tendancy to die much faster, look how many games don't even have a single player in them.. pretty much 98% of games on the original xbox, while people still play starcraft from the early nineties lol.

Yeah, no one cares about Starcraft, it is all about Halo nowadays!

I think we are going to see a slow decline in video games in general in the next few years, maybe after the next gen systems come out, at least in North America, because it seems that most North Americans (and European...shoulda said Northern Hemisphere...(and Australia?) seem recognize 'Halo' as much as 'Mario' now...and eventually, people will just grow out of this and move on. I mean, after a few years after Halo 3, where is Bungie going to be, because as hard as it is for you to swallow, Halo is Bungie's trump card. But I dunno, they are owned by Microsoft now.

yes when halo 3 comes out it will be played by everyone with a 360, but after a while when everyone has played it for like 5 nights in a row, then maybe people will consider playing halo 2, but it's doubtful. *sigh* im gonna miss halo 2.


Im glad your cool about it. Now that they have played the beta some people are like " man halo 2 sucks ". When they know they enjoyed countless hours on mindblowing entertainment. Now that halo 3 is about out they turn their backs on it and say it blew goats. Thats bullcrap


No. Everyone thought I was crazy when I said Halo CE was better. Keep your sorry assumptions to yourself.

Oh yeah, and Halo 2 was far, FAR under mind-blowing. Halo CE has always been, is now, and will forever be better than Halo 2. There's nothing more that bungie could do with H2.

No. Halo 2 changed the meaning of Halo. At least the Beta took a step back in the direction of Halo CE.


Halo 2 changed it in a good way. Halo CE sucks so bad its amazing. (thats based on the fact that i started out on Halo 2) And yes tragically some of that CE crap seeped its way into halo 3
I can not believe you just said that! Have you ever played halo 1's campaign? It was so amazing it made me cry... for like three days straight!


Ive never played halo 1 campaign, ive only played multiplayer. Although i must say the campaign did interest me. when i get my legendary halo 3 package ill have to check it out


Oh my God. It's one thing to say you like H2 better. It is another to say that without even playing the best part of Halo CE.

I miss halo CE.

I think the beta looks like it sucked and it doesn't even look like halo to me.

To me halo is supposed to be different than all the other games and halo 3 looks like a sell out.

Everyone has different opinions and thats mine.

I will probobly play halo 3 a lot but i will always keep playing CE and 2.

If you didn't play the beta, you wouldn't know how fun it is. And how can it "Not look like Halo"? What the hell did it look like, Gears of War? And Halo 3 "A sellout"? What does that mean? Games are designed to sell. Make money. So you start off by insulting Halo 3, and then go on to compliment it in the next?

What?

Honestly, I get frustrated playing Halo 2 even now because I got a bit spoiled during the Beta - I forgot how many idiots there are on XBL and how many ways there are for them to piss me off. I'm sure that the same thing will occur in Halo 3 eventually, but I'd like to get in those first few months with people who genuinely enjoy playing good, honest games.

What I mean is that i think the gameplay loks all different. I think halo CE is probobly the best one. I would rather play halo CE live because it is so much more fun and that halo 3 looks complately different from halo one. I think one of the worst things bungie ever did was take away the halo CE assault rifle and pistol. The halo 2 pistol was terrible! All im saying is that i wish halo 3 would have ended up back to being more like CE than what it was.

I realize that saying it was a sellout was stupid. Your right, games are made for money. I didn't mean it like it sounded and yes, it looked like a different game to me. I've never played gears of war.

Dude Halo 3 has the assault rifle, the pistol (albeit without the scope) and even more new weapons, superior graphics and hopefully a superior storyline. What more do you want.
Halo 3 does not look completely different from halo 1. It's got the same stuff in from halo- CE (IE elites, spartans) with better graphics, It's a game on a completely different console. Do you really expect them to make Halo CE again, this is Halo 3 not CE. So get over it.

Gameplay that is just as good. Because, you know, we play the game, so we want good gameplay.

I lost track to who ever im personally replying to... but the reason halo 3 has halo:CE in it is because it takes more skill.... halo 2 is pretty easy... comparing the auto-aim of halo:ce and halo 2.... its not a challenge... halo 2 just takes less skill to shoot.... button glitches, BXR, RRX, many more, also make it rather easy...

Hmmmm, i dont have a 360. Dont plan to get one. Halo 2 is a classic. Halo 3 is good, but i like halo 2 better.

Probably because ive played it more ;P
