U Mirin?

Why don't you do any work on your chest or legs or something? You look like a cartoon character.

I own 3 snapbacks, Advance towards me.

Playing by myself I prefer Halo 3 more.

In a party I prefer Reach more.

You don't kick a man when they're down, so don't teabag me when I'm dead!

I can't put my finger on wahy I don't like Reach, but I'm gettina an idea why: It seems to be the start of a downward spiral towards other generic multiplayer FPSs.
Halo has always been unique to me, and I loved Halo 3, and still play it now occasionally. Unofrtunately, if you imagined all the Hlo games in a line graph showing how they separate from other FPS games in terms of vehicular combat, shield systems, weapons etc., Halo consistently sticks above the majority. Although Reach is still quite unique, it's the first one to let a side down, and I fear it is the first game in an undeniable trend towards the realms of generic FPS gameplay.
It started with the loadouts at the starts of games, then I noticed the attention-to-detail wasn't quite what it was in Halo 3 (something that should not be confused for good graphics, which I could care less about). The vehicles now blow up quicker (taking away the vehicular combat focus, if only slightly), the storyline doesn't fit in with the series at all IMO (I don't even consider it part of the Halo canon), and it just feels like a big slip. I'd hate to think that Bungie would ever rest on their laurels, but maybe they did a bit with this one?
It's not a BAD game at all. It's just it's not as unique as the other Halo games, and some would argue, not really unique at all.

Now, Halo 3... I still consider Halo 3 to be the best game I have ever played in my life. It fits in perfectly with the story (apart from the very beginning, which was quickly cleared up for me when I asked on the forums), the ending is amazing (and reminiscient of the original), the voicework isn't bad ever (apart from maybe Miranda Keyes's "to war" line)...
It still amazes me to this day., I look at it, and think "holy -blam!-, that game is nearly four years old now"
I do the same with halo CE though. Seriously, ten years old?? wtf Bungie, it would be less awesome if you'd have somehow physically invented a time machine and used it to release Halo CE in the past... it's so ahead of its time IMO.
But anyway, Reach is not bad, it'sjust the first games that doesn't really give me the Halo experience, if you know what I mean.

I also like how the wave of immaturity has passed over this forum and left...and now everythign about Halo 3 is awesome, including, at last, the official forum
Although bungie.net has always attracted idiots and pretentious brats with short-sighted views on issues, and arrogant opinions.

A real test of a man is if he is willing to scrape a sharpened razor up and down his junk just to please a woman.

You're confusing b.net with every game forum in existence.

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

Both games had their good days and their bad, but Halo 3 has a cleaner feel to me! Too bad Reach came out.

I like Call of Duty and Gears of War, AND Halo. Why must everyone else like only one or the other?

There are some things I like better in Reach, and others better in Halo 3. For example, I think the gameplay is a bit better in Reach, but I think Halo 3 has better multiplayer maps and campaign. I think the better maps put Halo 3's MP better than Reach's. (Though I think Halo 2 had even better maps than either Halo 3 or Reach)

Halo 3 was better. Simply adding sprint made me dislike reach's multiplayer. Reach is fun, but halo 3 was phenomenal. Perks ruin everything in my opinion. I think everyone should start completely equal then have to WORK for the weapons and abilities like invis or overshield. But yes i just recently went back to halo 3. It's much better. Oh and taking away the battle rifle? seriously??? You take away everyone's favorite weapon and replace it with that dmr piece of crap? whatever...

All that is needed for the triumph of evil is for good men to do nothing.

Reach is a lot better compared to the way the H3 community treats H3.

Halo 3 has a better campaign.



No you have to be a troll.

The story for halo 3 was cut short by changes in development and time constraints, Hell while reach's campagin wasn't the bomb it was hella better than halo 3s.

  • 03.28.2011 1:48 PM PDT

halo 3 is better than reach. no doubt.

reach ain't even halo its a completly diffrent fps game with a halo jacked, i think most halo player agree with me.

(halo player people that played halo, (reach and hello kitty do not count)
