is Halo 2 lightening fast compared to Halo 3 on XBOX Live? I've recently started playing Halo 2 online as I never had XBOX Live when it first came out. It's so much faster and harder?

It's the BR and the movement speed. The BR is even more over powered then the one in Halo 3 (no spread, and less time between bursts), and the movement is slightly faster then Halo 3.

The gameplay?! Yes, because halo 2 4v4 maps are a lot smaller than Halo 3's (which I prefer) and all the button exploitations (which are good, Halo 3 sucks without them) can make skilled players kill you faster.

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

Yes. Overall, Halo 2's Multiplayer is more intense and has faster gameplay than Halo 3. That is what makes it superior to Halo 3.

halo 2 sucks compared to halo 3...everybody that says otherwise are those who either super jump or use button combos, which both are cheap. there are a lot of people who cant learn the button combos, and halo 3 evens all that out...and that shows who can hold a BR better.

Go back to the H3 Forum and make love to your AR's and Double Beatdowns. Halo 2 takes skill unlike Halo 3 where anybody can run around and get a Killing Spree.

all h2 is is button pushing...who can pull off the combo fastest...it sucks

i'll take ar's and dbl beatdowns over BxR and Super jumps anyday of the week

Correct. That is way alot of Halo 3 montages are sped up slightly.

Yes, it does seem faster. I like it. Great for swat. Swat just isn't anywhere near as fun in halo 3. But it makes every gametype fun.
