You need to go to Halo 3 forum. :P

Halo 3 is for the win.

Halo 3s campaign was very fun, but only on heroic or legendary. This simple mathematical formula proves how Halo 3 was inferior to Halos 1 and 2.

battle rifle + (suck ass brutes X power armor) = way to damned easy.

You're like, the bee's knees: you have helped me out a LOT in the past and you're a genuinely nice guy, and you deserve all the best for the good you've done me and surely done others
Count Peter, you're one of the only people I respect on here. Not that that means much on a forum, but still.

I personally loved it =)

It has been my favourite multiplayer so far.

The campaign admittedly was not too great... The brutes of halo 3 were not that amazing to play against tbh.

But! I found the brutes very fun in ODST, with the smarter AI and the sheilds. Still not as cool as the elites were, but cheiftens were amazingly fun to play against =)

The brutes were a very inferior enemy compared to Elites.

Also, 1 melee to kill flood = WAY TO EASY.

Exactly what I thought. The flood are supposed to be un-meleable. I know that the flood biomass is composed entirely of restructured rotting flesh, but come on. The grave mind has been around for millennia, and was smart enough to turn Mendicant Bias against the Forerunners. I think he would have though of a stronger formula by now.

These are some of the criticisms that a lot of people have with the game:

- Too BR dependant. In the early days of Halo 3 this wasn't much of a problem, but as time progressed, a lot of people learned that the BR was THE weapon to pick up. Eventually these people get good at 4-shotting and there you have it, the whole game is pretty much dependant on the BR, Sniper, Laser, and a few other weapons.

- Repetitive multiplayer. Every map has a similar strategy, and the same strategy always plays out. On Valhalla people always rush the Laser, on Sandtrap people always rush the Sniper and Banshee, etc.

- Bullet registration isn't perfect.

- Halo 2 maps > Halo 3 maps. By a large margin too.

- Elites > Brutes

- Melee system is frustrating

- The respawning system is terrible.

I could list all the things I hate about Halo 3, but it would take too long, and I don't think the game deserves me talking about it for more than 10 sentences.

10 sentences? You give that game far more credit that I do.
I was being nice so as to not be flamed.

10 does seem to much.

Let me attempt a one sentence summary:

"It's not Halo: CE."

That about right?

It isn't really new, people have been "hating" on the Campaign for awhile because its lack of depth, diversity, and the fact that it's fairly linear. Though I agree with most of these, I also think that it was fun and I'll never pass on a chance to play it with friends.

Another reason is that people have played it so much and, instead of attributing their boredom to the fact that they've played it for hundreds of hours, they scream at Bungie for making a boring game. Which is total bs, btw.

  • 10.31.2009 9:56 AM PDT

if you have any questions about halo i am one of the few people on this site who will gladly help you. Even though this account has been active for only a year, my past accounts go all the way back to 2002.

people just want another improvement, hence the halo 2 hate when halo 3 was in the wraps.

  • 10.31.2009 10:38 AM PDT

Check out the group, Planet Reach and talk about Bungie's next game without the annoyance of the public forum. Oh and it's nice there too.

You thought you had lag, it took Jesus 3 days to re-spawn.

Your summation seems about right. Halo 3 was fun, a lot of fun. Unfortunately people wlll hate it because nothing will ever be as good as their precious Halo CE, which had more flaws than any of them will ever admit.

Halo 3 was a great game, but I don't want Reach to be exactly the same as it.

  • 10.31.2009 10:54 AM PDT

1.Arkham Asylum, 2.Mass Effect, 3.Halo CE, 4.Mass Effect 2, 5.Halo 2, 6.Splinter Cell Double Agent, 7.Gears of War 2, 8.Medievil, 9.Oblivion, 10.Crash Team Racing

Halo1>Halo2>Halo3

Considering offline gaming. With Lives, huge TVs and soundsystems... the multiplayer (campaign MP too) could be great. It would still have 0 story though

ODST was much better than Halo3

Group invites will be treated very poorly because the Care Package is empty.

1.) Connection PL0X. I have a horrible connection, and I never get host yet I've never had bullet registration errors.
2.) Halo 1 Maps > Halo 2 Maps > Halo 3 Maps
3.) By a large margin.
4.) Pretty straightforward, whoever has the least health losses. However, I wouldn't mind seeing something like Halo 2's melee system in effect.
5.) So was Halo 2's, so was Halo 1's.

i know, it's an amazing multiplayer game with an awesome storyline, the best of the halo games so far. okay, so the brutes were idiotic, but I still had fun in the campaign.

Not quite the challenge of an Elite, but still fun!

  • 10.31.2009 12:44 PM PDT

when will people reaslise that 90% of the time the original is better than the sequel? ermm because its totally new.

and its hard to add onto to something to make it great when it was truly great in the first place.

there is no problems with halo 3 what so ever. i think its still the best game on xbox 360 because its fair and most of all its fun - surely thats all a game has to be?

R.I.P. Halo 2

- B( )B

1. Wrong forum.

2. Halo 1 is far superior to Halo 3.
