I prefer Reach Forge but Halo 3's Campaign + Multiplayer + Theatre is so much better.

nothin much to say after that

I liked the campaign of Halo 3 better because there actually seemed to be a level of mystery and development. In Halo 3, it's all about solving how to win the Human-Covenant War and destroy the flood. Decisions are made and it just seems like a more developed story. Halo: Reach, on the other hand, seems to be a lot like CoD in that the story is: kill all enemies, move on to next battle. There are little to no twists in the plot. Now, I know that we were technically supposed to know the ending, but they still could have done more. Perhaps the story could have elaborated more on the Forerunner structure, such as having a mission where they explore in to it and make a groundbreaking discovery.

Halo: Reach, however, by far has the best multiplayer experience. There is really no limit to what can be done: forge, matchmaking, co-op campaign, and firefight. Equipment in multiplayer has been vastly improved (no longer the pointless shield regenerator/destroyer) so that it is more beneficial to the player using them. And, don't forget how awesome the new weapons are, especially the Covenant ones.

Anyways, I believe that as long as I have xbox live, I will enjoy Reach more, but once my 'live runs out, I'll probably end up playing more of Halo 3.

Reach is way better cause you can assasin opponets and you got new weapons such as the grenade launcher and the focus rifle.

Grenade launcher eh? In halo 3 you could chuck a nade farther then that grenade luancher and the focus rifle sucks I would have rather had a -blam!- version of the beam rifle. O and did I mention how where like 500 years in the future and we dont have a gun that has more then 1 shot? This isnt the -blam!- french revolution or something like that. Game bores me to slow and you can tell the atmosphere between both games. Halo 3 is for the love and compation of the game. While Halo Reach is all about winning and flat out cusing or yelling.

Halo 3 took the cake

Halo 1 took the popsickle

Halo 2 took the brownie

Odst took my fudge pop

Halo reach took a nudge out of my grandfathers back breaking it in half and then taking a nice huge dump and then calling it -blam!- on shingles.

I think it's kinda equal, maybe halo 3 by like, a freaking milimetre.

  • 12.13.2010 9:12 AM PDT

I play Reach a lot, but if Bungie doesn't fix their goddam game soon, I'll run out of patience and revert back to Halo 3.

  • 12.13.2010 9:27 AM PDT

liek omg u guyz...

omg ponies (ok ya it aint that bad imo)

GRRR IM RIGHT UR WRONG AND GHEY LOLOLOL UR GHEY

lova ya internet, never change :D

I think Halo 3 has better maps and core gameplay, Reach wins in terms of features. Forge World allows much more than Sandbox does and the new things like phased object physics saves a hell of a lot of time.

Halo 3 core gameplay is better.

If it weren't for everyone switching to Reach I would probably still play H3

you express some valid points here and i have to agree with you on that one

  • 12.15.2010 12:46 PM PDT

Halo 3 is about 20 times better in my eyes because the campain was legendery and multiplayer is awsome but it takes a while to find a match. The forge, well I think they both equel up because you have awsome scenery and in reach you have building and structure but there a bit to big so that's why I kinda like halo 3's forge better I mean the mammoth or flying elaphant in sandtrap forge is realy cool I actullaly just downloaded it tonight.

(for any body who doesent know what the mammoth is then my gamertag is: racerboymorgan
message me,add me or look at my file share if you have a hard drive)

Hmmm, I don't know what to say...

I started playing Halo 3 again just yesterday. True, Reach does have more overall features, but the core is just a mess. It can't compare to all the memories I've had with Halo 3. Not to mention that bungie doesn't seem to hear the online community. They even left out the things that helped make Halo 3 one of the best Halo (Alpha Zombie, VIP)! While they took time making that unnecessary april fools video, they could have added more things to Reach.

Overall, I think that Halo 3 is just better. I cannot believe that I am saying that, but that's my opinion. However, who on my friends list still plays Halo 3? The next time that most of my friends list will go on Halo 3 is when the game shuts down, just like Halo 2. It's a sad, sad thing. What's even more sad is the only thing that keeps me playing Reach is the credit system - and it takes FOREVER.

Still can't get a 50? ;(

H3 is infinitely better than Reach. I don't feel like I need to touch on all the points, but 2 of the more major ones are GAMEPLAY and MAP DESIGN.

Those 2 right there make up 90% of the game, so that about sums it up.

^Are you retarted?




  • 12.16.2010 10:38 AM PDT

^Fail troll

Edit: If your losing Level 35 Team Slayer, you should ask yourself that question.

Get some originality you nerds. Quit saying troll every 5 seconds, k? k....

Secondly, ratings don't mean anything. Numbers don't make a good player, a good player does, k? k...

Try again please...
