RIP Halo 2

Halo CE's is amazing, but I had just as much fun playing Halo 2's.

I personally think the best campaign's are 1 & 2, besides both being different, they had amazing gameplay.

Halo 3 has a average campaign, being rushed? and neglected, while the ODST campaign is a more successful game. (I havent watched a playthrough of ODST yet, but it does look like a solid game.)

To play or not to play....

Hmmm that is actually a tough question.

At first i would normally say Halo CE but I have started playing Halo 2 again lately and it is awesome. I am really starting to appreciate Halo 2 now.

It is funny like that... Sometimes I play something a hundred times and think it is good. Then I leave it for a while and start playing it again and it seems so much better.

Halo Ce would win though Halo 2 is pretty good. Hmmm in fact all of the halo games rock the planet. Each one is a bit different in its own way so that makes it a tough decision to make.

LOL I will use a really old pun. I used to be undecisive on this matter but now I am not so sure that I still am.

Halo 2 for Life!

halo2 had the best overall campaign but halo 1 had the best begging levels of the campaign and halo3 wasn't any good either with the campaign or the multilayer, Halo odst i played the first level and stopped enough said (I beat halo 1, halo2, and halo 3 all on legendary)

Probably Halo:CE

But I think it's because it didn't have a proper online multiplayer.

I liked all the campaigns, but I think that ODST and CE have the best ones as the designers didn't have to worry as much for multiplayer, so they could focus more on missions etc.

Dark PerFectioN clan!!!

i say Halo 2 had the best campaign of any halo game and one of the best of all games ever!!! it was completely epic. although some people threw their controllers at the wall i was so happy! all i was thinking was "YES!! THIS MEANS ANOTHER HALO GAME!!!"

  • 01.21.2010 12:20 PM PDT

I have to say Halo2.
It was a ritual for me and my friend to play it when we had nothing else to do. it was purely amazing.

  • 01.21.2010 12:37 PM PDT

One of these days your gonna land on something as stubborn as you are, and I don't do bits and pieces.

Halo 12and3 were the best odst was horrible

  • 01.27.2010 8:28 PM PDT

I guess as far as the story goes for the chief I would have to say Halo CE. I did like ODST though, it was nice to see what else was going on at the same time.

  • 01.27.2010 9:16 PM PDT

Halo CE. open environments were so amazing. ODST failed at it as well...

  • 01.28.2010 6:38 PM PDT

That ViDoc... :'(

Halo 2. Stop saying ODST's campaign was horrible, it wasn't that bad! In fact, it was good.

  • 01.28.2010 9:54 PM PDT

Halo 2 for Life!

To me it (ODST) was dry, boring (couldn't even bring myself to get threw the first level), dark (hard to see), hard to navigate and much much more. I played a bit with my brother and fire fight mode was alright but the campaign didn't meet my standards for a halo game (halo3 didn't either if you wanted to know). The games that did meet the standards for me, were halo 1, halo2, and halo wars.

  • 01.29.2010 2:47 AM PDT

Halo 2's, definately. Just because I've played through it countless times, finished it on Legendary, and had the most experience with it more than any other Halo game.

Ich will halo reach spielen.

Halo 2. Because of multi-perspective. I love the Covenant.

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.

Halo 1 and Halo 2 to me had the best campaign. It had a high replay value, lots of easter eggs to find, well detailed campaign, both had rich story lines, legendary campaign pushed you to the limits, and because you got to kill elites.

Halo 3 and Halo ODST to me were very cut and dry. Campaign storyline for both games were far too short, legendary campaign on those 2 games were far too easy to beat, brutes were too easy to kill, and both lost the feel that halo 1/2 gave when you played it.

Overall both Halo 1 and 2 wins best campaign.

Halo 2 > ODST > Halo CE > Halo 3. In my opinion, CE had some really good levels, but there were a few levels (The Library, Two Betrayals, everything in the Maw besides the Warthog run) near the end that ruined it for me.

ODST was a good break from normality and the environments were awesome and all different.

Halo 3 felt like a classic Sci-Fi shooter campaign.

Halo 2's was pretty epic, there were so many levels that I replayed over and over (Regret, Outskirts, Metropolis, Delta Halo, High Charity). It takes a good campaign for someone to do that.

Everyone cares about opinions, that's why we socialize on a forum with strangers.

Halo 2 had the best campaign. The level design was varied and inspired, combat was dynamic and unique each time, there was always something to do, and the pacing was excellent. My only major gripes with Halo 2's campaign lie with the texture pop-in issue and the cliffhanger ending.

Halo 1's campaign comes next, featuring the same things that made Halo 2 so great minus the varied level design. Also, backtracking sucks, and it's hard to tell where you're going sometimes when every room looks like the one behind it, but the rest of the game is so good that it makes up for these rough spots.

Halo 3: ODST had a very short campaign that was good while it lasted (except for Coastal Highway, which was disappointing but not horrible) but ended far too soon. Mombasa Streets was a novel idea that sort of worked and sort of didn't. It lent a great sense of moodiness and mystique to the game's story, but Bungie never did anything with that and the Rookie spent his entire time in New Mombasa plodding through the completely empty streets with nothing to do but collect Audio Logs, kill Engineers, and move on to the next flashback segment. If Bungie had given us more stuff to do in the city, the Rookie's level would have been much more effective, but alas, it just felt like a playable menu system until you found the weapons caches. I did enjoy searching for Audio Logs, but there's no replayability there; once you've found them all, you're done. It would have been nice to have something else to do that encouraged replays. In addition, the total absence of Covenant Elites turned things down a notch. On the plus side, the flashback levels were outstanding, and Bungie did a great job recapturing the sense of "Halo-ness" that was missing from Halo 3's campaign. Also, the writing was very well-done, with an excellent plot, a gripping sense of mystery and moodiness, and highly polished cutscenes. There were a couple of genuinely funny one-liners in there as well. I know that opinion might be unpopular with some of you since ODST's story received less-than-stellar reviews, but I'm of the opinion that Joseph Staten did a really good job with it, especially considering the time constraints he had to deal with.

Halo 3's campaign was easily the worst of the bunch. It wasn't horrible, but like westpointusma15 said, it was so generic and uninspired that it felt nothing like a Halo game. Playing it was like playing any other run-of-the-mill science fiction shooter game. Sure, it was fun, but it just didn't feel like Halo to me save for a few well-crafted vehicle sections. In fact, it felt very hollow and superficial. There was no depth to this game. Exploration was discouraged, the AI was dumbed down and lacked any sense of randomization, the weapon balance was ruined, and the whole game felt rushed and truncated, both in terms of storytelling and level design. But my biggest issue lies with the fact that the Master Chief plays like a demigod in this game. He's way too powerful, to the point that I felt like there was no real danger anywhere in the game. This was a HUGE contrast with previous Halo games where you'd constantly have to watch your shields, watch your health, or watch for cover, especially on Legendary difficulty, if you hoped to make it through to the end in one piece. Halo 3 had none of that challenge, and it really killed the game for me.
