ur not missing anything special by not playing h3 trust me....
i was thinking of going out and buying a 360 just so i could buy H3 but thought mabye i should play the game first to see if it is as good as they reckn it will b....
well me and my brother in law went to the midnight launch returned to his house and fired up halo3 campaign co-op set it to heroic and away we went. just under 5 hours latter we were finished thinking is that it. dont get me wrong, campaign was good and all grapics wise(bar it lagged alot and we were offline at the time also) but the story line and how it fitted in with the previous 2 games was rubbish. i wont go into details n spoil it for u but it was utter crap. it doen't make sense, it doesnt really fit into the previous 2 games. and the new controls n wepons and everything else u can get just ruin what was a good, simple and the best ever FPS series ever...
Bungie took pride in creating a game that was simple and ticked all the right box's for a good FPS and they still have the best FPS ever(halo 2) but halo 3 just isnt right n will never b as good as H2. in my mind it would b more suited as an add-on for WoW than b called H3. seriously, we dont need all these new guns and grenades and stuff that u can throw at ppl(seriously, a self locking turret that fires at ur enimies for u?, y do we need that?). and forge, why do we need forge? you've just taken an idea from many other games ie: the sims, and tony hawk game where u can create a skate park, or any other game where they use this. but it doesnt fit into the halo series....
in the end u would of been better off keeping it simple as u have in the previous 2 titles, fixed the glitchs and button combos, made a heaps of new maps and playlists. made a decent campaign for once that u could actually follow the storyline and it tied in with the previous 2 titles and u would of had yourselfs yet another winner but n u had to ruin a good game and a much anticipated title for me and hundreds of thousands of ur fans aswel....
well done bungie, you's fail=)
i will not be going back to H3 ever again, so this(H2) will live on n continue to be the greatest game bungie ever makes/made in my mind...
