I don't have Xbox Live Gold. I play games on the PC, mainly. Add me on Steam if you want. Just PM me, I guess.

halo 2 still the best game in the series. long live halo 2.

Dam, I miss the old days playing halo 2 with my old brothers in arms. Thank you my old friends for giving me this account, I shall continue our legacy.

halo 2 beats halo 3 in terms of campgain play and storyline. halo 3 beats halo 2 in terms of online gameplay.

I'd say although now Halo 3 has more players and more playlists it's more fun to play - Halo 2 back in the day was far more fun than Halo 3 is now - offline AND online.

Nobody likes shooting brutes, at least 1/2 of Halo 2s campaign avoided that.

And really, I don't like the additions to Halo 3 - Equipment is an amusing novelty that quickly becomes a huge nuisance, bubble shields aren't clever, they're just annoying and they ruin the fluidity of game play on some maps. Playing team snipers and a player out in the open suddenly becomes completely covered - brilliant.

Changing the beat down system of Halo 2... I just couldn't understand why they did it, Halo 2's beatdown system was PERFECT, none of this shoot 3 AR bursts and beat them down bullcrap...

BxR, BxB, BYYR, RRX, XYY, YY to zoom out... - I really liked these things, I felt they added something to the game, they weren't too easy to pull off, and it meant a noob rushing you with noob weapons like the SMGs, pistols and the like wouldn't kill you - just because they got the first shot in. Yes it might have made the BR overpowered, but being on a running riot and being killed by a level 5 who's just spraying AR at you then getting a lucky beat down isn't my idea of a good kill that I should just take in my stride.

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

I respect everything that this member just posted and it has been the best post I have seen in ages. Thumbs up to you V3Rsi, well done.

Halo 3 is better in my opinion. Its multiplayer is better in almost every way.

A soldier should never be honored for something that was expected

well it depends.both games have their ups and downs

halo 2 has brute plasma rifle,halo 3 doesnt.

halo 3 has weapons like the mauler,spartan laser,and spiker,halo 2 doesnt

its fun jumping around buildings in outskirts on halo 2,and ya you can go to places in halo 3,but not NEARLY as many.

and a ton more.but,other than hidden secrets,and just for campaign,weapons,graphics,and multiplayer,Halo 3

btw,considering this is the halo 2 forum,its likely most votes will be halo 2

R.I.P. Halo 2 11/9/04-4/15/10
If you havn't played Halo 2 online than you are missing so much. Plus if you have played a good amount of Halo 2 online, I might have a better chance of listening to anything you say.

Halo 2 is better in every way. Better Campiagn, Multiplayer, Maps, Gameplay, Options. And it doesn't have a broken BR. Halo 3's BR just doesn't work the way it should.
