It's like every Halo game they make..is a complete total opposite of the original. Hasn't bungie ever heard the saying..."Often imitated, never duplicated? I think Reach will be another H3. We will all have extremely high hopes..and then be left with a mediocre game. If they would just go back to their roots...the game would be amazing. Halo CE FTW!

They tried to make Halo 3 like Halo CE so hard, but it just didn't work.

I don't consider Halo 3 to be a mediocre game, but I believe that it has much room for improvement, where I hope that Bungie has learned from their mistakes with Halo 3 and will go from there. I agree; they should take some concepts from Halo: CE (and maybe Halo 2?-perhaps for map design, as Halo 2 has some nice maps) and apply them for Reach.

Halo 1 looking pistol, 10 levels, the armor looks pretty similair. Small things, but you can tell they wanted it to be more like Halo 1 than Halo 2.

Yeah, that's what I thought of when I first got the game. The AR's re-inclusion is a factor as well. Hell, they brought back Mk. V armour for Multiplayer use.

lolwut

The armor is the exact same Mark VI armor from Halo 2 with some SLIGHT changes to the handplate/ thigh/ shoulder pieces.

Also.. as for Halo 3's Halo CEness... THE ENTIRE LAST LEVEL OF THE GAME.

All while keeping it close to Halo 2 as well.

Halo: CE + Halo 2 = Halo 3

Is the way I see it.

They should just ditch Halo 2, and follow Halo: CE.

  • 09.01.2009 6:26 PM PDT

Um, what..? They are all Halo, with the same core gameplay mechanics and characters. If they are mediocre or not is up to you, but I disagree on that front, all the Halo games are superb. Also, I seriously doubt Bungie hates Halo: CE. At least, I wonder never hate a game that started a multi-million dollar franchise.

I disagree. One of the most important parts of Halo CE was the fast kill time, which was because of the pistol's 3 shot kill and faster ROF. The BR in H3 (H1's counterpart) is weaker than Halo 2's BR, due the spread and the fact that it is no longer a hit scan weapon, which makes the kill time even slower, moving the gameplay even further from Halo CE.

Similarities between the two games such as the amount of campaign levels and having the same weapons like the AR or flamethrower are superficial, because the games play nothing alike.

Halo CE plays very differently from Halo 2 and 3, which is disappointing.

Come on people stop saying halo 3 is bad. If you look at if from a story point it is fine unless that's me. What about it some things are similar to halo 1, but what do you want the graphics and marines wearing the brown armor back. I just don't see why you can't just settle for how things are sure i know halo 3 has brutes and has the flood in it but what can you do it makes a great story line. Sorry if things aren't completly like halo 1 but all halo games have their good points and bad points and i think you need to accept that.

Ugh...

First on a BWU.. yeah, I'm cool.

ODST;MYTHIC Screenshot winner! One of the first to get their hands on the mythic map pack.

Halo CE doesn't work as good as a multi-player game. They need to nerf certain things and add other things to make the game more surprising and new, tactical.

  • 09.01.2009 7:30 PM PDT

It's called they make halo as a good game, not exactly like the last. Sorry they try to evolve their product instead of reskinning it.

  • 09.01.2009 7:55 PM PDT

That's why the best course of action is to be pessimistic about it. Pre-order but envision it'll be bad. If the game is bad, the you don't lose anything. But if it's good, then hooray.

Stop right there.

that, is the one and only reason you dislike Halo 3.

You were expecting the second coming of Jesus Christ, and instead got an absolutely amazing game.

However, since an absolutely amazing game doesn't compare to Jesus Christ, the game is "mediocre".

Bungie does not "hate" Halo:CE, as halo has gained popularity they have had room to expand staff and tech they used, They have chosen to expand into new things they have not done before, while still giving a nod and trying to retain elements that made their former games popular.


Halo 3 is not Halo: CE or Halo 2 the same as Halo Wars is not Halo: Reach.


while they are part of the same trilogy they are different games and each installment has given Bungie a chance to expand itself as a developer.

  • 09.02.2009 12:25 AM PDT

Now it just seems to me that your all discussing about the difficulties of the particular games! The whole trilogy make it an fantastic game, but i must say the halo 3 campaign was fun, but not challenging. Halo CE was just too hard and halo 2 was a classic.They're all great games, so why argue?
