At E3 when they showed the trailer, and they built up all that "Top Secret" stuff like they always do, I was really expecting this to be a Marathon Game, something without the HALO title, and because the trailer didn't really show much until the title, I kept on hoping. I was actually quite disappointed to see the HALO logo come up. I don't like where the Halo franchise has gone, in my opinion, it has gone down hill in terms of multiplayer since the original Halo. Honestly I wanted to see bungie try something new, shift their focus a little bit to make those of us who prefer the original game happy for once. Realistically, if they took Halo 1, didn't change ANYTHING at all, and just added xbox live compatability, I would spend a full $60 retail on that. I don't like the über competitive nature that halo has developed (MLG anyone?), because when that came, the fun left for me, and so did I. (PS, to this day I haven't gotten a single kill with the BR as a form of protest, don't believe me check my stats)

add a horn that says "!%*@ BILL O' REILLY" in Austin Powers' voice, and
I like how if anyone ever says a nice thing about Bungie people think all they want is Recon, and if someone says something bad about Bungie people join with them. And then after they get done bagging on Bungie, they go play the game that Bungie made

Good day. I'm an active and fairly enthusiastic member of the Bungie fan-base and pride myself on many qualities. If you want to send me a PM, go right ahead. No I won't spam your inbox with group invites, I will respond in the best way possible. Thank you, and as I had opened, I'll close - good day.

Not going to happen. With XBL, there will always be competition. Sorry, but the days of small LAN's and competitions with CE are over.



WRONG.

IM A LEGIT 16

Nostalgia, my friend. It betrays you.

When I went back to Halo: CE and Halo 2 I was severely dissapointed. They both seemed so much better in memory, but Halo 3 is actually better.

Games with other people are competitive. If you want a non-competitive game, play custom games with your friends.

Halo has been getting better imo. They constantly add new, fun features and fix old, game-spoiling weapons and glitches.

You don't want to use the BR? Okay, no one cares. That just means you'll get killed alot.

I definitely don't mind competition, competition is what makes any game fun, but what I want is friendly competition, not what we see with Halo 3 today. I just don't like where it's gone. You're probably right about it being better in my mind, but in reality I've gotten so much more enjoyment out of Halo:CE that I ever have from Halo 3, and I just would like to seem bungie have a fresh start.

you're absolutely right, I think that what I really want is xbox live to become one big giant non-stop LAN party

Some people never see the light till It shines though bullet holes.

Vote for the most underated weapon

group to talk about halo reach with no spam

Problem is if halo CE played well online all the mlg pros would go and play that instead.

Also i dont see how this is a let down. I dont think bungie even eluded to doing something marothon based.
