Continuous luck is skill.

a buddy of mine and i broke out halo 1 today and its like we haven't skipped a beat. that game is fun no matter what you do. for us it was all about a game of snipers/pistols on blood gulch and its epic every death...... that game will never die. and that made me take a second look to compare blood gulch and coag.. at a first thought blood gulch is flat.. i mean lets face it. but those rolling hills bring a surprising twist and awesome combat. but when 2 tried to do it it didn't feel the same, the combat or the hills.. whatever it was i didn't get the same vibe. and to this day blood gulch is supperior for the feel of the terrain. the epic quests across the map. and the massive battles across the field sniper and pistols...

Yeh last time i played that map me and my friend were just being stupid. I was trying to get all the vehicles to 1 side of the map and when i did i moved them all to the other side. It was so fun. Hard but fun.

Just > in General. When the day comes there's a better and more revolutionairy game than Halo CE, call me. Don't have a phone, but I probably won't need it.

Halo 3 does some things better than Halo 1; but for its time Halo 1 was absolutely outstanding. The plot, music graphics gameplay were all revolutionary.
Lets just forget about Halo 2 shall we.

I like Halo more than Halo 2 in almost every way. There are some things I like about Halo 3, but I still think the original is the best.

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

Halo CE was the best since it was the original, and you got to experience things you never felt before.

Halo 2 was a mere re-hash, and Halo 3 was Halo CE + 2 in a blender.

Except the Campaign was short, but didn't suck.

I like my Covenant like i like my woman, screamin and with a sticky on there face.

i think they tried too many things in halo 2 that didnt work which makes halo 1>2 but i think they went back to basics for halo 3 and apart from the short campaign halo 3 has alot of replay value and is pretty well balanced.

Perfect ≥ Halo 1 > Amazing > Halo 3 > Mediocre > Halo 2 = Getting hit in the nuts by a backfiring bottle rocket

Halo 1 is the best multi player game ever created. The campaign is great and far better than 2/3, but does not rival that of RE4 or LoZ:OOT.

Halo 3's story line is a confusing disaster to those who've never played the first two video games before. It's unfair for the new players to not be familiar with so much back story that's not included in just playing Halo 3.

Unsurprisingly I totally agree.

By the time I'd actually worked out everything that was going on, and filled in all the 'wtf' blanks, I thought the story was actually good. But a whole lot of pretty vital stuff was either unexplained, unreferenced, or just left hanging. By the time you've played it through 3 times and discussed it with hundreds of other halo fans on a forum, it's a bit late. You need to know what's going on while you're playing the game for the first time. Filling in the blanks after the event with speculation isn't nearly good enough.

As more time passes since the 3 launch, I am even more sure of my decision not to bother spending $400 on a 360 and another $60 on the game. I hear too many CE and 2 veterans just not happy with Campaign. Since I have never played 2 online, and don't even have an internet connection at home anymore I think I made the right choice. I play a whopping 4 games on the xbox, CE, 2, and the two DOOM III games, thats it. No online, no multiplayer, no nothin............CE is the most enjoyable total campaign, the skulls in 2 make it a nice change, but I hate the Arbiter levels. I wonder what will become of me in 5 years!
