Subject: Halo 3 Matchmaking Shutting Down?

My brother saw on Bungie a few days ago that Halo 3 matchmaking was shutting down. The only thing left would be Campaign by yourself. Is this true? If it is, it's all because of Reach. Why would they when Halo 3 got on average a million players a night and reach only got about one hundred thousand? If anyone of my information is wrong, I apologize and please feel free to correct me.

"I'll tell you right now, if you ever see someone called ll wa1do ll... leave the game immediately. My friend knows him, I've been in his party a few times, do not mess with this guy. From what I've heard, he's the real deal. I also heard someone made a guy named Wa2do (similar to his name) and then he hacked that guy and boosted off his level." -From Minou on Bungie.net

This would be a blessing so no one would ever again have to endure the garbage of Halo 3.

If you go and be a troll in The Elder Scrolls IV: Oblivion instead, you can have fur and superspeed and be the most annoying enemy in the game.
Go on. You know you want to.

Several people have told me otherwise. If it's true, I won't buy and NEVER play Reach. I wasn't planning to anyone, but now I have a good reason to.

I don't see why not. Halo: Reach is a phenomenal game. Definitely worthy of being included in Bungie's Halo games. It's better than Halo 3 even, despite Halo 3 being awesome.

Why not stop by my File Share while you're here?

Only regret is I didn't play more of it.

If you haven't noticed by now, I'm sort of a jerk.

Or severely misinformed.

Bungie always said, "If half the people love it, and half the people hate it, it's fine. We did a good job."

Well look Bungie, 3/4th's of us want Bloom gone. You messed up. Fix it.

In YOUR opinion. Reach is terrible, in MY opinion. Far from phenomenal.

No, Ogres were the WORST. I wanted to punch my follower in the mouth every time an Ogre appeared.

No wait, I did...

Wow if thats true it sucks cause they just shut down Halo 2 and Halo 3 still has a lot of people playing it. I went on Halo 3 today and there were like 16,000 people in Team Swat so I guess some people still like it.

  • 10.23.2010 8:20 PM PDT

bungie sucks

because reach sucks and bungie wants everybody to play that -blam!-, haha!

  • 10.23.2010 9:54 PM PDT

Lol

In my opinion Halo itself needs to die. Both Halo and CoD have negatively impacted the video game industry and nothing but FPS dominates the market now.

No they are just pissed off because Reach doen't have the BR (The insta kill machine). So they say Reach sucks.

nope ur bad

Follow me on Twitter: @oboewan

Considering that Perfect Dark Zero (awesome game, I dare any of you to say otherwise) still has its MM servers up even though nobody plays it, I'd say there's a long way to go until Halo 3 gets shut down.

I really want to play PDZ right now.

Meh, Reach is really frustrating. Then again 3 has had about 4 TUs, and Reach has had 1.

You brother is a moron.

I don't know why this has to be repeated so many times. Xbox 360 matchmaking services remain on AS LONG AS THE XBOX 360 EXISTS. The day that they replace the Xbox 360 with the 720, or the 1080, or the revolution or whatever the hell you call it and upgrade xbox live to generation3, THAT is when you worry.

Bungie has no control over the matchmaking services except for producing playlists, there are no remote servers involved except for the Xbox live ones which support ALL 360 games and will until the day that the 360 is replaced.
