I don't understand why people keep asking other people if they are a sugary substance used to spread on bagels and toast.

Halo 3 is by far better than Reach.

yeah i prefer halo 3 matchmaking but i do like halo reach storyline and forge better but for some reason i cant get into the halo reach matchmaking it feels too slow for me

I like how most of the people who are defending Reach don't give any reasons for why they like it. Instead they say stuff like "Halo 3 is superior to nothing, it is a crap game, thank god reach came out so people would stop playing this garbage." or "halo reach is better stop cying" It looks like most of the annoying 12 years olds have moved on to Reach.

Granted there are some people who are actually giving reasons why they like Reach better instead of just bashing on Halo 3 for no reason.

And no I'm not saying I like Halo 3 better than Reach, it's just an observation. I don't plan on playing Reach since to me it looks like a lovechild between Halo 3 and Call of Duty.

it is productive but its like getting payed to walk around all day and punch random people in the face "obviousely an exaggeration" but i think it gets the point across.

It's no longer fun crushing people if there are no REAL skill ranks IMO so yes I like Halo 3 more.

Plus i loved the trashtalking. I loved making fun of nubcakes and even getting made fun of for being lower than some people. I became addicted to the competition high.

Call me crazy but I loved all those parts of Halo 3. Even getting my a$$ handed to me and then b1tching about it in the post game lobby.

Idk it was a sense of accomplishment.

Reach is superior on many levels, but its multiplayer is so freaking boring.

Thats my 2 cents :)

quoth teh wasted jamacan: my native english is language

I think if the extensive armor customization and forge gametype were grafted onto halo 3, it would be way better than Reach. As of right now, Halo 3 and Reach are about even in my eyes.

Although I still think Marathon > Halo

Well, I'm tired of all this. So I'm going to end it right now.

I'm going to reveal why Halo 3 is on par with Halo Reach:

See here.

Reasons from the video:

-Halo 3 is the only Halo game that lets you do a AI exclusive technique.
-Halo 3 is the only Halo game that lets you stick a enemy that is behind you.
-Halo 3 is the only Halo game that lets you shoot a rocket backwards!! 3:45

Obviously, Halo 3 is better. This, in addition to all those Halo 3 Campaign videos I provided in earlier posts, proves that Halo 3 is better or at least equal to Halo Reach.

To all you Halo 3 haters out there, if you want compromise, say it now or I will provide video after video, glitches after glitches, showing how badass Halo 3 is. I will have to look for new glitches. Half-infected Ultra Elites anyone? ;)

The compromise that I offer is this:

Simply admit that Halo 3's Campaign is equal to or is as enjoyable as Halo Reach's Campaign. Say that and I'll leave this discussion alone and you all to your bickering.

Lol no offence but I play because I enjoy dominating people who talk -blam!- to me. Idk if your any good or not but if you talk -blam!- to lower ranks thats pretty low. they are obviously worse why waste time by insulting them rather than help make them better and hope they add to the challenge of the game. Of course if someone starts with me I will make sure they have a bad game. Generally that is why you find better sportsmanship in the higher levels, we all have a respect for one another because all of us have attained the highest rank we could

Glitches have nothing to do with how good a game is

Mmm no offense taken sir, that was a valid point you made.

However we seem to have had a miscommunication. By nubcakes i didn't mean lower levels. I meant nubcakes :).

I loved the insults because it gave motivation to do better. A sense of competition. And when crushing those that talk trash, a sense of power. I even enjoyed the humbling event of getting crushed myself because it motivates on to get better.

Anyways I digress, my main point was that the general sense of competition is gone. Not the fact that "I HAVE TO BE A 50" but because the intensity isn't as apparent in reach is it is in 3. There isn't much leveling incentive for many of the other players.

I do.

Don't believe me?

The general sense of competition is gone? hm I wonder why. And its not because Reach came out. But there is still competition if you hang around in matchmaking long enough.

Also I don't need have a grudge against a trash talker or a ranking system or another player have a grudge on me to have an urge to get better. Just try to get better just because your supposed to.

So do all who live to see such times, but that is not for them to decide. All we have to decide is what to do with the time that is given to us.

Wow. I didn't know people loved Halo 3 that much. I thought Reach is what everyone loves now no? Either way, I love all Halo games equally.

  • 10.11.2010 9:36 PM PDT

Drop Acid, Not Bombs.

I think we just need some getting used to. When I first played Halo 3 I got super bored, and tired of it very fast. Once I started to find people to play with, and got used to it, I really started to love the game.

Then again, switching from Halo 2 to Halo 3 made me a cry inside.

  • 10.12.2010 12:26 AM PDT

i still play halo 3 my gt is turbo lewd

  • 10.12.2010 4:30 AM PDT

I told my doctor I broke my leg in two places, he told me to stop going to those places.

I think anyone who prefers Reach better should just go and talk with the people on the Reach board/forum. Unless they are too stupid to realize there is one. This debate is pointless because there are going to be tons of players who say Reach is better and vice-versa. Personally, I prefer 3 over Reach and continue to play it. Reach is a lot like Halo: CE and CoD combined. While Halo 3 is a game of it's own. It was somewhat similar to Halo 2, that being said the Halo 2 multiplayer was amazing. Sure the campaign isn't amazing, but I don't think a majority of the people that play online games like Halo play it for the campaign. It is mostly played for it's online play hence the term "online game". As I was saying though, if you prefer Reach then don't comment on something like this. You should realize that A) You are on the Halo 3(!!) forum and naturally the majority of the posters and members of this board will argue that 3 is in fact better than Reach and B) You can avoid arguments from fellow members of Bungie.net by simply going on to the Reach Forum and posting a similar topic, you will undoubtedly get the result you are looking for.

All of that being said. Halo 3 is better, in my opinion.And people who posted on here who agree should join the group the creator of this topic made. I'm always up to meet new people and play in some matchmaking and custom games whenever I'm online. So feel free to add me or send me a game invite. (on Halo 3, not Reach)

disregard video games

been at least 2 weeks since ive touched Reach. Been stuck on MW2.

i do miss H4 though. If i wasnt busy playing MW2 with IRL friends all the time i would play H3.

My name: rufemee comes from the Elite Heritic leader: Sesa Refumee
But I spelt the name wrong

nah reach is much better
just because there are a few problems doesnt mean that its not enjoyable
and reaches campaign was alot more emotionaly strong i mean in halo 3 when johnson died i barley felt anythig and he had been in all of the first three halo games!
in reach the characters were only in one game and i became very sad when each character died.
halo 3 is good but reach is amazing.
