whats with all the sudden halo 3 hate,i thought it was great
okay bungie still havnt managed to surpass halo 1's brilliant campaign but they certainly surpassed the halo 2 campaign and multiplayer,i really do fail to see how so many feel halo 3 was so awful and why they are suddenly blaring it out on all fronts


Because Halo 3 did not surpass Halo 2's multiplayer. It didn't even come close. Campaign is a personal preference. The hate comes from the fact that the quality of the Halo series has gone steadily downwards since Halo CE.

Let me attempt a one sentence summary:

"It's not Halo: CE."

That about right?


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.


Name one flaw that cannot be explained by hardware limitations or the lack of XBL support at the time. Besides the lack of Forge and theater, I can't think of one. You could argue better custom game options, but that doesn't excuse the fact that the core gameplay is infinetly better than Halo 3's.

- 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.


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.

1- I've had non-laggy games ("Green bar" games, if you will) where shots from Battle Rifle have not registered. I have a 20Mb/s connection.

2) Didn't play Halo 1 multiplayer so I can't comment, but all I know is that I preferred the maps in Halo 2 to those in Halo 3. Judging from your response, you seem to agree with me.

3) Indeed

4) It's more than that. It's the fact that BOTH of you die when you've got no shields. Halo 2 had a much better melee system. For example, you could crouch to avoid melees, and I think that a two-hit death system is pretty stupid.

5) I didn't defend the respawning system in those games though, did I? It's high time Bungie sorted it out, imo.

Did you actually play Halo CE? Halo 3 is nothing like it in terms of gameplay, minus the two-weapon system and the recharging shield.

They blew it because it didn't have something that you wanted? GTFO.

That was unluckiest respawning I've ever seen

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

So here is how it should look ?
Reach>Halo CE>Halo 2>ODST>Halo 3
or
Reach>Halo CE>ODST>Halo 2>Halo 3

May I direct you to a better example of a spawn kill.
