Subject: are you a true fan? tell the truth so the world may know!

“There is no hunting like the hunting of man, and those who have hunted armed men long enough and liked it, never care for anything else thereafter.” - Ernest Hemingway

My first game ever was HALO: CE, but then I started to play CoD. I left at #3, but then Modern Warfare stepped up and saved them. I was playing Modern Warfare and loving the diversity. Halo kept it plain and simple. I do agree that ODST was a "Boom and Bust" type of game (Lot of hype, lot of buys at the start, but a lot of sales shortly afterward), but Bungie has done me well, so I stick with them.

Also, I am not a member on the MW2 site yet, but I have been with Bungie with longer and I will stick with them in hopes they step up to the plate and knock out a home run.

Sure.

I like CoD just fine, it just bugs me that people bag out ODST and then turn around and start loving CoD.

Let me explain.

CoD: MW2 Features:
New Campaign (Short)
Same multiplayer (New Perks/Maps/Weapons/Attachments/Kill Streaks)
Co-op Mode (Spec Ops)

Halo 3: ODST Features:
New Campaign (Short/Some new weapons/new equipment)
Same multiplayer (Some new maps)
Co-op Mode (FireFight/Campaign)

So it bothers me that, although ODST and MW2 are relatively the same (I'll admit MW2 offers a bit more variety when it comes to weapons and maps), people decide to flame ODST for being an overpriced expansion, when MW2 could probably be given the same title.

Kind of just makes me think that IW decided to throw in the AC130 and Tactical Nuke to distract us from how obvious it was that the game was nearly identical to CoD 4.

But that's just my opinion.

I fail to see how liking Call of Duty disqualifies me from being a true Halo fan. I love Halo CE and Halo 2 as much as Modern Warfare and Modern Warfare 2, because they're all excellent top tier games.

So why not a 100/100 option?

I had to say Halo 25% CoD 75%
Halo: ODST killed Halo for me. I got MW2 and now i'm hooked.
However i have been replaying Halo: CE
because it was the best.
I'm gonna replay the halo's in hope i find some reason to hang on and believe Bungie can make Reach good.
Either that or i'll make an attempt myself.
Lol, jk.

In the days of old, there were legends of a land long lost to time. This land was known as Ranna'Mor. Ranna'Mor was said to contain in its borders 7 warriors. These warriors had once unleashed a veritable hell upon the ancient world, until they were locked away. My name is Toriad, and I am one of those warriors. Our return is approaching. Do not run away, do not cower in fear; take solace in your final days, for that is all we can do. -Legend of Ranna'Mor

I love Halo, and it's pretty much the only multiplayer game I play. But COD, especially the Modern Warfare series, is great, and a lot of fun. You really can't compare the two, since they have different styles of gameplay.

Exactly. Why choose? When you can have fun playing both.

I'm a 450% Halo fan and a 100% CoD fan.

And to the OP, more than half of the reasons why CoD sucks aren't even legitimate reasons. One of them was even 'whew this is hard'.

Halo is an awesome game, but CoD has its good points too.

Why can't people accept both games for what they are, stop comparing them and enjoy them both?
