Wow. 75 hunters? I only remember perhaps 12 the most in the game. 1/2 hour to reload the assault rifle? If that's the case, It'd take us all half a week just to beat CE. and 150 bullets to kill an elite?

You sure you played it?

Wow you apparently don't get the point of halo 1.......

  • 06.17.2008 12:44 PM PDT

Um this game was made 8 years ago. get over it. We love it because we played it 8 years ago. If you eat one of the Donuts for DunkinDonuts it will taste fantastic. If you eat a donut from some olde tyme place that sell donuts from the 50's, the donuts will taste bad and you will have no respect for it. Heck, I could complain about Galaga, like how fast the enemies move, but i dont. Get over it.

i played halo 3 first (had a Ps2 back in the day) then i played c.e. and it was sweet and wtf would you complain about the pistol zooming??!?!?!?! that would be like complaining about the way it takes one sniper shot to kill somebody
why would you complain about something that helps you??
and what other game from pre-nextgen games aren't full of glitches if you can do so much better why don't you go and make a game that people will still play 8 years later

I think maybe, maybe the smart decision would be not to criticize this guy because you're all saying the same thing again and again. That's unnecessary.

"Ooh, the OP is retarded! Let's attack him!"

"I agree, I must re-iterate the same thing you said in case he didn't understand the first time."

"And I shall repeat it just in case he didn't understand it the second time!"

"Wait guys, I want to bash this guy too even though what I want to say is what you guys already said, but I'll say it nonetheless!"

I admit, I'm somewhat guilty of this, but I was one of the first people to reply. Please, let's not do this.

RIP Halo 2

Please tell me this is sarcasm. Okay, I will argue anyways. Halo CE came out in 2001, and it is still better than most games today. The graphics aren't amazing, but they were at the time. If it wasn't for Halo CE multiplayer would not be what it is today, and neither would MLG. If we didn't have Halo CE, we wouldn't have had Halo 2, which made XBOX LIve what it is today. You are an idiot.

Ehh? Are you on crack?

1. Assualt Rifle is Super powerful, and if you know a special trick you can make it reload almost instantly.
2. Ghost is awesome you just can't drive.
3. YOU can't aim and drive at the same time.
4. Maybe if you could aim you could kill Elites?
5. What about it? The pistol is the greatest weapon in the game.
6. There are no more then 2 Hunters in a level.... Maybe 4...
7. Set your controls before the game? Not that hard to pick one. What do you do switch between Green Thumb and Default in the middle of the game?
8. No, YOU can't aim.
9. List stopped at #0

P.S Pistol zoom was the smartest thing they did in Halo, to bad they took it away...

Halo 1 beats Halo 3 in Fun Factors.


I just always had more fun, especially on the PC version, than I have on halo 3 now.

Probably partially because there wasn't any huge push for competitiveness or rank, it was pure fun. How games should be.

I just bought Halo Combat Evolved because I had never played it and I like Halo 3 so much so I figured...what the heck.

This is easily one of the top 5 worst games ever.

-The assault rifle is useless and takes 1/2 hour to reload
-The ghost handles like -blam!-
-You can't aim and drive at the same time with the tank (how retarded is that)
-It takes 150 bullets to kill an elite
-The pistol has that stupid flip toss animation after each melee
-There are like 75 hunters on each level
-You can't even freaking change your controller settings in mid game...ARE YOU KIDDING ME?
-Turrets and vehicle weapons have HORRIBLE aim.
-and the list goes on for miles

This game was so highly praised that I can't believe how bad it is. It's mind boggling how terrible this game is. All I can say is thank you Bungie for seeing the THOUSANDS of flaws in this game and fixing them by the time you got to Halo 3.

What a waste of $10

Ps. The pistol has zoom! Were the Bungie developers drunk when they made this game?

Angry rant concluded


Actually Bungie got drunk when they made the -blam!- Halo 2 pistol. I had the game for Xbox back when it was released and never had any of those problems, I even had the Gold Edition game that was ten times more filled with enemies on Legendary. Never had any issues reloading the AR, or aiming in a vehicle... Perhaps it’s not the game but you that sucks? Especially considering no one else ever complained about it like this or for those reasons. Also if it takes you 150 bullets to kill an Elite you should probably aim instead of just firing randomly at the map... Might help a little bit.

Aiming and driving with the tank??? Really? I never had any problems aiming with the tank, ever, in fact if I was in a tank in Halo CE everyone else was screwed (friends used to make me take them out of the Gulch). To be honest I was more disappointed with Halo 2, the story line (campaign mode) was way too easy on Legendary, and Halo 3 on the other hand was good.

Turrets having horrible aim? Really??? Maybe if you waited until they were closer it might help, it is a Gatling type gun and they all have crappy aim at long distances (just ask the US Military).

All I have to say is after looking at your Halo 3 stats it’s no wonder you think Halo CE sucks, because you can't play an FPS very well. Halo CE doesn't suck, you do.

Yeah, you're about the fiftieth person to imply that.

Seriously, no one needs to jump on the band wagon and start attacking this guy. It got old within the first two pages of replies. There's almost nothing you can say that won't be a regurgitation of what we've been saying for the entire thread, so we all need to stop it. I wish people were more mature than this.

Too bad a lot of these "vigilantes" are from the Halo 3 forum.

You have no appreciation for culture.

And anyway, if you'd have started with Halo CE you'd almost absolutely think differently. It was the best of the best, it was a legend, it brought gamers together, but most of all; it brought in new people to FPS and games in general.


Exactly.

  • 06.23.2008 5:50 PM PDT

that game is the second best halo it goes:

Halo 3

Halo CE

Halo 2

A few years from now nothing you do in this game will have mattered. Your rank, kill/death ratio, win/loss ratio, will get you no where. So, if your going to play the game, do it for the enjoyment.

Halo CE is easily the best game ever. It is a classic. Of course you were never old enough to experience the golden age of when it was first released and the age of great gaming.

Halo 3s target audience. 10 year olds that define a good game as "I shot that guy!"

Well, Bungie did want to capture the largest possible customer base. They exist to make money first and customers happy third. Second is taking over the world.

This thread is still alive? Look, I'll sum up what most people have posted, Halo is a great classic, and this guy is a dumbass. Now just let this thread die.

This is what happens when inbreeding occurs.........(lets diss a game that is YEARS old against the latest sequel, logic ftw)

Face It! - you missed out on halo 1 during its prime, you will never have the memories that most of us have here about it..... the first cutscene, landing on the ring..........and only god knows how you played halo 3 and like it without playing the rest, the storyline must of been butchered for you, enjoy your thread of failure!
