This is an important time for us as the players to tell Bungie what we would like to see in Halo 3. Feel free to post your feelings here.

My personal feelings lean toward Halo 1, I would like Bungie not to stray far from the original Halo when making Halo 3, and what I mean by that is: In the physics, the way things look and feel, the difficulty in mastering the weapons, not necessarily the weapon types and whatnot. More than anything I want the ceiling for personal skill improvement to be HIGH like it was in Halo 1, that's what made me come back for more, the competition in multiplayer, the huge length of time it took to understand the weapons and all the little intricasies of the game that made Halo so wonderful. Just being able to get together with friends or strangers and completely dominate them after six months of playing, then come back six months later and have them dominate me after learning even more than we thought possible. That's the kind of stuff that made Halo 1 great, and that's the kind of stuff you will not find in Halo 2.

IT'S ALL ABOUT THE LOOK, THE FEEL.

The storyline to Halo: Combat Evolved was the greatest halo yet! Don't get me wrong, I love my Halo 2 and everything, but Halo is just the classic cake-taker! (lol) IF Halo 3 is anything like Halo: Combat Evolved, it will be a huge success, atleast in my town.

-S

Could you PLEASE stop calling it Halo CE? Halo 1, or just Halo, or Halo Xbox are all fine.

And I think what you really meant to say was "TELL BUNGIE HOW WE FEEL, WRITE A 3 ON THE COVER OF MY COPY OF HALO 1 AND SELL IT BACK TO ME."

You know what?
Look at this.
New Mombasa is full of haters. It seems like every other read is a Halo 2 hate thread. But look at that poll. Only the minority hates Halo 2; Bungie succeeded.

What Halo 2 lacked from halo was the open green evironments like you were part of a massive world

No, Shiska, that's not what I meant to say. What I would like to see are for the "core" elements that made Halo so differant from all other FPS to be included in the sequels, and sadly, this was not the case for Halo 2. Don't get me wrong, I love and enjoy Halo 2, have Live with a good size friends list, many of whom are real life friends who I played Halo 1 with. I have completely gone through 8 of the currently 12 multiplayer maps to understand the weapons layout and all the little places I can go. I have done personl "ballistics testing" to see the kind of damage and speed factor done with what weapons in what situations, and lots of other things in order to be better at the game. I enjoy it and I'm good at it, BUT, it doesn't attain a certain standard set by the first, and this is because you, Bungie, strayed too far from those "core" elements that made the first so great.

Damn straight. I don't they ever should have changed the engine or the grenades but other than that Halo 2 is really good. I think that Halo 1 is better though because it was more different from run of the mill shooters and feels a lot less like Quake, Counter-strike, Unreal Tournament, etc. Both are great but I hope that Bungie decides to return to the game that got 1.5 million fans to pre-order the sequal.

I dont enjoy halo 2 multiplayer. Live is fun but halo's multiplayer is much more enjoyable. I had a system link party recently, we played halo 2 for a while but after realising that everyone was irritated and not having any fun at all, i switched to halo, and it kicked ass. I really can't explain why, like the other guy said its just the way halo feels - halo 2 just cant do it. Also, i think its really funny to say its balanced. Remove the pistol (i never used it anyways) and replace it with a carbine. I shot someone on a turret and got a good 4 seconds (a long time in halo seconds...) before they turned around and shot me 3 times with the carbine. Another thing, midship on live im on 41 kills some other dude on 18 gets the sword and goes on a rampage and gets to 50 first. Hilarious in my opinion.....

I'll tell you one thing, if halo 3 comes out only on xbox next (which it probably will to get millions of people to jump on board) I'll be super peeved.

But as for look and feel, halo 1 takes the cake, online play aside, halo 1 is by far a more exciting single player game and co-op is great. Halo 2 was created for online, so now go back to the roots and get halo 3 about the single player and story. Like the other threads have said in this post, the WIDE green space in halo 1 was damn fantastic.

But I'm sure bungie is going to shoot themselves in the foot either, halo 3 will be good. and that is that.
