I was totally expecting to play as Half-Jaw.
When he said, "I'm going to take the cruiser back..." I thought, 'that'll be the first level of H-3. Play as Half-Jaw with 2x shield and regain the ship'...The rest of the levels will unfold from Chief & Arbiter's perspective. Maybe you'll even get to choose...Chief - regular, Arbiter - active cammo, Half-Jaw - 2x shield... I mean, H-1 had a hero. Two had two heroes. Three...

R.I.P. Halo 2
11/9/04 - 4/15/10

- B( )B

I would not have liked that. I loved playing as the Arbiter in Halo 2, but having three hero's would take the focus off Master Chief too much.

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.

I think its a good idea. They made the arbiter as a side kick in halo 3, I wish they gave him his own storyline like they did in halo 2.

I wish Bungie never released Halo 3, the way it is, while it may be some short, epic blaze of glory ride to the halo story, their were still a few, unanswered questions, that may remain unanwsered for all eternity.

(What happened to 2401 Penitent Tangent? What are the Shar'qou? And what was the Gravemind really up to in Halo 2? The Gravemind was turned into a monster in Halo 3, yet in Halo 2, he was a puppet master, with an aura of mystery, but despite his mystery, he was instead viewed as a plain rip off of a little shop of horrors movie by many people)

Exactly.
2 took chances and did things that were actually creative/controversial. It was all wrapped up nicely in 3, but the Cortana "Shoot" thing seemed so much more sinister back in the day. I did have real man tears when she said, "You found me..." Was great. But to totally throw away the Arbiter/Half Jaw thing...seems kind of lame. I know Bungie is beholding to the public, but, the H-2 revolution died in H-2. Sucks.

I thought it would have the best multiplayer maps ever.
I still think Halo 2 holds that title.

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

Indeed, no matter how many times bungie have tried with Halo 3 i don't see anything near containment, terminal or gemini.

Same here, I agree with both of you.
