Consistency and Map design. Halo 3 succeed in many not as important areas but without these a game is nothing. The game isn't limited by the design of the weapons to only be fun at medium range like Halo 3 is. Close range is no where near as bad as it is in Halo 3 and the BR actually works across small maps. Halo 3's campaign is better but like Halo 2's it not very replayable but the multiplayer is where its at in Halo 2.

Halo 2 was a lot more fast paced in the gameplay. Which made it a lot more fun compared to Halo 3.

H2 has much better maps, gametypes and the tanks work much better. H3 has strengths too but I think retrospectively I will consider H2 a better multiplayer; its more fun.

About all the same to me. Just a simple minded FPS game so it's about the same to me as halo 3. Just different maps but I do love the halo games so I play both of them online and got all 3 halo games in my collection. More to come of course. ;)

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

The soundtrack has more variety and I just get a kick when playing campaign on Halo 2, I wouldn't say it is better, it is just different in a good way.

I dislike Halo 2, I feel that it was the worst of the series. It isn't a bad game, it is very good actually, but now I am to use to Halo 3. Halo 3 has much better maps, smoother gameplay, better storyline.

Halo 3 also has the forge and theater., you can balance certain maps any way you want, or make whatever scenery you want, something you can't do on halo 2. The theater makes for easier machinima, and screenshot taking.

Sorry dude but Halo 2 is good and all but the only thing i did not like about it was the Glitches and the people that mod and the BR. Yes yes I know a lot of people love the BR but it was way to powerful I mean its a good weapon and all but it didn't match with the other weapons on the game not to mention the CB and the Shotgun was way to weak. Oh and don't forget the there was way to much auto aim in Halo 2. But beside all of that it was a good game. But Halo 2 is old you need to update to Halo 3 just because its new and more people play it. But between all of the Halo games Halo 1 will always be the best yes its not online for the xbox but it goes online with the (PC) and its sweet dude i wish bungie would remake Halo 1 Mutiplayer and make it xbox live.

Better campaign, better multilayer, better community. --->for me anyway<---

Also Halo2 has been out so long, it's like a home for all those who are still true halo2 fans :)

Halo3 is just a updated game everyone wants better graphics The Br is perect on halo3 you just have to be good and if your nott simple enough your gonna get ate up by a Br.

faster multiplayer gameplay and less B.S. headshots and sticks register. plus it takes more skill to get multiple kills in succession. in H2 you could get a triple kill with half a shield if you knew how to work around the map. in H3 if you miss a single BR shot you die, and if you don't the next guy who sees you kills you. it is much more difficult to get multi-kills without a power weapon or playing MLG. i loved Halo2, i dont mind Halo3.

Better guns, better game play, better story line, better maps. Only thing Halo 3 has better is theater, forge, better graphics.

I like halo 2 better because it has a better ranking system than Halo 3 and the battle rifle acually works unlike halo 3.

  • 02.13.2009 8:58 PM PDT

Halo 2 for Life!

More realistic feel.

I blame stosh.


Proud tester of the Halo 3 beta.

There are, of course a lot of features and stuff that I like the most about Halo 3, but one thing I really miss from Halo 2 is the campaign map "Outskirts" best campaign map ever!

I like h3 but H2 swat is so much better. Elites have no advantage and its juts a whole lot more fun. I wont play swat in H3 anymore.


wonder why bungie made elites hunchover like old men. They dont look like that in halo 2. Ill have to play H2 again tonight.
