Bungie is the best.
Simple as that.

halo 3 is way better than halo 1. i dont like the health system in halo 1 either
But you must have liked the Halo: Combat Evolved health system if you played it in the year it was released like me, since there wasn't anything to compare it with (Except maybe GoldenEye 007 for N64).
The A.I. in Halo (1) talks more, more communication so i agree with you on that one but, i'm afraid marines being able to drive the other warthogs' and tanks while you ride something else (including the warthog and scorpian) is much better. Once again Halo (1) has a more flaws with the A.I than Halo 2 and Halo 3; the fact that the A.I sometimes sticks, shoots you and other marines, plus you can't give them rocket launchers to fight vehicles.
Halo (1) does have a more involving and replayable experience only because, you have played it some many times in the past it becomes your own personnal classic. To explain further, i myself still like AOE (1) because, i played it when i was younger and i always can get the same buzz from the game, maybe i can't play it as long but i can still play it for 3 hours. Halo (1) i am the same with, i enjoy the campaign because, of this buzzi get from it still, maybe it is the level design and multiple ways of killing your enemys via multiple routes, strategys and vehicles. In Halo 2/3, it is extremely more difficult to find such examples as the game play has changed dramatically, Bungie have certainly changed the way they make games, to stick to a strong story line and force a player to experience the game a certain way. I think that's why Halo 2/3 aren't very appealing for many replayable missions, although i must admit 'Library' was boring and repetative.
Speaking of repetitive, it was nice to see AoCR, reappear in Halo 3 with the subtitle: 'Full Circle', didn't you reply with a cheesy grin and think, 'i wonder what the changes are'? Bungie did little change to the layout except the graphics (obviously), interior of the control room and replacement of the ramps to get to the facility, a little snowed under.
Halo 2 showed a dramatic change in style ccompared to Halo (1), weapons, game engine graphics, health, you might aswell say everything, but it worked well due to the feel of the story line, a tense and highly involving strong plot that ended in a spectacular end that opened Halo 3: 'Finish the Fight'.
I personally disagree with many comparisons to the Halo series, why can't people see them as versions? Yes the graphics are different but, hey, i want to play Side Winder with the MA5B with a few friends today! Hey, i feel a bit of Relic on Halo 2 and so on so forth. I see them as weapon, missions and map variations for a particular buzz, a joy from a classic or a challenge the other.
I do understand why these topics occur and why people want to see which one is better, i myself (as an opinion) don't see it that way (stated above). I only came to this topic to see the reasons being placed and to state my point of view. Any critisms of my veiw are welcomed, since you are entitled to your own opinion, just don't get angry, it's a debate really... without a conclusion from Bungie.
