Halo 3 failed? How so? Is it the fact that until Modern Warfare 2 came out, it was the most played game on Xbox Live? How about being the most successful game in terms of sales at the time (and currently still the best for a single system)? Is it a fail because you've played over 4,000 games, bought all the maps, reached a rank of Colonel Grade 3, and also have a good majority of the achievements for it? Yeah, Halo 3 was anything but fail, and in my mind (and I have played all 5 games), Halo 3 is the best Halo game.
Halo 3 failed harder than any other Halo game, in my own opinion. To me, Halo 2 was the best. You can't forget all of the originals, "cops n. robbers, cat n mouse, zombies, lava man," etc. Halo 3 has made cheap and un-fun versions of all those games. I just don't have as much fun on Halo 3 as much as I did with my friends and clan members on Halo 2. Plus, Halo 3 added too much. Forge, especially equipment. That just made the game suck even more. Also, bungie took the special hiding places, and super bounces out of Halo. That was one thing that made it fun. You really can't speak up if you weren't on Halo 2 XBL for a good amount of time. Sometimes I just wish Halo 3 never came out.
i was a member of the halo 2 community as soon as it came out... but to say you dont have a voice just because you werent an active member of the halo 2 community is somewhat riduculous. Kids who are playing halo 3 for the first time should in fact have the largest voice of all, or have we forgotten the thrill we all shared playing halo 3 our first night? i can agree that super bounces, lava man, zombie on foundation were all fun things... but halo 3 has aloud for people with a creative mind to make there own super bounces there own gametypes that have brought a whole new variety to this series. halo 2 had its fun but perhaps people look at things the wrong way, because im sure members of the halo community have had there own share of new thrills.
