Subject: stop with the whole halo is dead thing

(If you want peace prepare for war)

ok we all know reach is coming out soon but just because it about to come out dosent mean we still cant play and like halo 3 so shut up with it maybe not all of us can afford reach right as it comes out

  • 09.08.2010 5:41 PM PDT

Well, at least more than 15,000,000 people will be playing Reach this September 14th. I bet Halo 3's population will be only like 250 people. We can still enjoy Halo 3 but lets face it Bungie isn't paying attention to that game. They've the playlists all messed up, Bungie Favorites will never be changed and there has been a lot of trouble lately. It's just the beginning of a new civilization and they way that happens is when another falls.

i understand not many ppl will be on but still if ppl wanna keep talking about reach then go to the reach forums i wil be getting halo the first day but its not like i am gonna throw my halo 3 away i love the game and they have a reach forum for a reason

for t3h lulz

I couldn't pre-order reach at gamestop because too many people had preordered it already. So I'm on a reserve waiting list. I sadly won't have it on the 14th, despite the fact that I went there to preorder 2 MONTHS before the release date.

That kind of demand pretty much means that EVERYONE who loved Halo 3 is going to be playing Reach.

your right, but as it happened with halo2 it will happen with halo3, first, yes, halo reach will take out alot of population with Halo3's popularity, but what im worried about is the xbox live for halo3, well especially with the vidmasters it will be around for awhile... but not forever man, im sorry, but it will happen

  • 09.08.2010 5:53 PM PDT

I keep getting banned since the mods are unfunny and suck at their jobs!

You do know when Halo Reach is released, almost nobody will be playing Halo 3?

Can someone tell me what's wrong with these two, this made me LOL hard.

Didn't people say this about Halo 3 when Halo 3: ODST and Halo Wars came out? Seriously.

Lone Wolves- 46| Terrible matchmaking warrior
Team Slayer- 50|

ODST and Halo Wars are crap compared to Reach. Your point is irrelevant.

I can almost guarantee you that 15,000,000 people won't be playing Reach.

Ah but that doesn't mean they will be playing halo 3

  • 09.08.2010 7:12 PM PDT

the difference between people still playing halo 2 when halo 3 came out is that halo 2 was a good game.

The kids believe once Reach is released the matchmaking for Halo 3 will stop like it did for Halo 2 this year.

Wow, what ridiculous figures. No game has ever sold any where near fifteen million units in a day. Hell, not a single Halo game has ever reached that number of unit sold in their life time, let alone on day one. The most you can expect for day one Halo Reach Sales is probably five million and I'd say even that is pushing it.

And Halo 3 will definitely have a community much stronger than a couple hundred. After Halo 3 came out Halo 2 still had thousands of players on a daily basis. Even after Modern Warfare 2 came out Call of Duty 4 and World at War remain among the ten most played games over Live. I expect Halo 3 will similarly remain among the most played games over live even after Reach.

Lol, no. ODST did not have it's own competitive multiplayer and Halo Wars was in a completely different genre than Halo 3. Neither had any hope of replacing Halo 3 from the start and I never heard anyone say they did.

If Halo 3 wasn't fun then it wouldn't be any where as popular as it is.

(If you want peace prepare for war)

noone seems to get the point of what i am saying. ok try this again we all know reach is gonna be the new main live for halo games a lot of ppl play it. but this is the halo 3 forum not the halo reach forum we come here to talk about halo 3 not to hear about reach coming out and how noone will be on halo 3. which i still dont believe i think a bunch of ppl will still be on but main point
IF YOU WANNA TALK ABOUT REACH GOT TO THE REACH FORUMS.

  • 09.09.2010 6:22 AM PDT

Halo 3 will never be the same once Reach hits. Two reasons, Playlists and Population

Nobody knows what the playlists will be like after the 14th.

Nobody can be sure how many people will still be playing H3 or if they are even worth playing with! ie, bad connections or obvious cheaters.

"A mans true maturity should be based on how he acts when his identity is a secret."
Halo Reach is how a Halo should be. Simple, Fun, and Awesome. See you online.

I don't think it will die. Sure the numbers will take a drastic hit but people will still be playing.

  • 09.09.2010 6:43 AM PDT

(If you want peace prepare for war)

thats what i am also trying to say it will still be played i will be playing on it and reach i still am going for my 50 in halo 3 i know its just a number but i really want that number

  • 09.09.2010 7:58 AM PDT

Life is too short to spend it putting down others. Make the best of it.

Halo 3 is far from dying. After Halo 3 came out, TONS of people were playing Halo 2, (and still do). So just like Halo 2, once Halo Reach comes out, people will refuse to buy Halo Reach; or just can't afford it at the time, and will continue to play Halo 3. Mind you, Halo 3 has always had a strong following, and will likely keep it even when Halo Reach comes out. I, however, will be getting it the DAY it comes out!!
