Some people aren't rich enough to purchase an Xbox 360 and at least one new game.

i will always love halo 2, but i think its time to put the game away and move on...even if its a hard decision to make.

Maybe because: 1-with all the new ways to cheat in halo 3 some people go back to halo 2 because its the beast you know, 2-I've heard from numerous players that they are becoming bored with the maps and playlists on Halo 3 alot faster than anyone did with those on Halo 2 and last but not least, newer is not always better....right now as I type this there are only 19000+ playing Halo 3 Worldwide....somethings wrong with that. It may be the other new games out such as Call of Duty 4, but I tend to think Halo 3 while very good was a bit overhyped. Oh and please dont go to my stats and try to use them to show your right n I'm wrong because with 5 accounts I dont use this one much. These are just my thoughts and I could be wrong but time will tell.

It's gameplay is slow enough for a one handed arthritic person?

Halo 2's Battle Rifle is so strange looking compared with the new Battle Rifle in Halo 3. I love Halo 3's BR.

I keep getting banned since the mods are unfunny and suck at their jobs!

Maybe they... like it? *in shock*.

It must be the maps, people are begging for Blood Gulch for Halo 3. Can't mess with Lockout.

TI: What you know about that?
Me (in my pre-pubescent voice): Well, I'm fairly educated on the topic.
my 99 nights sig

How you comin' on that novel?

Does anyone else remember how awesome the first 6 months of Halo 2 was? Yeah, well Halo 3 never came close to duplicating those feelings. That's why I still play Halo 2.

Halo 2 took skill. With the fastness of the game and the button glitches. Most people who hate the button glitches, can't do them. Halo 3 feels really slow and that takes most of the fun away. For people that are ACTUALLY good and just don't "think" they are, prefer H2. It's not hard to use a mauler/shotty the whole game. H3 definatly doesn't take as much skill as H2, not even close.

I play halo 2 because I dont have a 360. I intend on getting one soon and then I will play H3.

To the person above me, the majority of players hate button glitches because it is just that--glitches. Im not good at them because I dont practice them. I dont practice them because 1)I have a life unlike those who do practice them. 2) It is cheating.

actually 700 people is not bad at all for 9:00am EST for a 3 year old online game
Actually that is pretty bad for a 3 year old online game. Counter Strike 1.6 has 132,860 people on at 12:45 EST, and its a 7 year old game.

Yes but CS has always had many people on. It also doesn't need any fancy system requirements to run.

and make that 701.

suprisingly there is almost 40,000 halo 2 players playing.
How is this game not dead yet?

Haha... good one.

It never fails to make me laugh how people here like to justify their subjective, inconsequential preferences by a false allusion to skill.

Stick with your auto-headshotting BR, and swipe-sniper, and ridiculously powerful grenades.... and keep telling yourself that they mean you are more skilled. Just don't expect anyone else to indulge your mistake.

I don't mean to flame but you sound just a bit hypocritical in that statement.
