Why would someone play 8-bit Nintendo, when they could be playing the Wii? Why play guitar hero when you could play a real guitar? Why play the original Tecmo Bowl when you could be playing the latest version of Madden? Why play Street Fighter II when you could play one of the many clones? Why play Halo 3 when you could be playing the original Doom? Why play (add game title here) when you could be playing (add game title here)?

In order to understand the answer, first ask the question: "Why play Halo 2?". The answer ought to be self-evident. Let me spell it out for you: F-U-N. Does that answer your question?

What makes you curious?

I like Call of Duty and Gears of War, AND Halo. Why must everyone else like only one or the other?

Well, there are a number of reasons why someone would play Halo2 over Halo3. The most obvious reason would be maybe they don't have a 360 yet or their 360 got the RROD. Now, outside of those two there are still several reasons. Halo2 has a much better single player.(though too bad it doesn't have the online co-op) Halo2 has better maps than Halo3 currently does. (Hopefully this will change as we get more map packs with remakes of some Halo1 and Halo2 maps) Also, sometimes you just want a little change.

RIP Halo 2

Because it takes skill and the glitches in halo 2 are fun whereas the glitches in halo 3 are terrible. I also like halo 2 swat much more. I hate having AR and BR. The only good things about halo 3 are the graphics, forge, and film. Bungie Failed SPECTACULARLY

I agree. Somehow I go to Halo 3... oh yeah, to teabag every Halo 3 player ever. I'll do it.

Halo 2 became one big cheat-fest why else would anyone play.

Then there are the people who poop in the mash potatoes. Those people get launched out on their asses.

I play Halo 2 once in a while still, cause it's still a really good game. There is enough of a difference between the two that each is separately enjoyable.
