Subject: When do you think H3 will be gone?

I think that when GOW3 is released no one will be playing Halo 3 and possibly Halo:Reach. That's my opinion though but when do you guys think Halo will be done for?

I hope it never goes away man GoW is Awsome and so is CoD but deep down inside I'm a hardcore halo fan Halo 3 was pretty awsome and reach is cool to but there will always somebody playing it.

30k people were on a moment ago, that's a decent number.

I imagine in a few months time there will be about 5000-10000 people playing per day, on average. It'll only end once support for it is removed, which ought to be a long, long way off yet.

ME2 was known for stupidity and being retarded

Deja vu... NO!!!!!!!!! I won't let Halo 3 die like Halo 2 did! EVER! Microsoft, you caused the death of 2, you're not doing this to 3! And 3's snooty little brother Reach isn't helping 3 breath easily either!

I'm sorry America is busy helping others in the world and actually making a difference.

Something Canada will never do.

probably not until the 360 dies, or even a while after that.

you cannot compare Halo 3 to Reach, Reach is not a game, its a disc in a plastic green case called pure fail.

Got it? good.

Never. halo 3 is everlasting.

beastly

nah reach and gow3 will b here

Gears of war 2 sucked horribly, I doubt Gears of war 3 will be much better frankly.

I will place my knife between the notches of his spine, and my boot between his jaws. - ME!!! ><

I got on some time earlier this month with a friend. There where over 1.5 million people playing that night. so its not going to die real soon. BTW It wouldnt make any sense for Bungie to shut down the Halo 3 servers, for they run on the same servers as Halo:Reach.

Ok The reason Halo 2 was shut down is because it ran on the OLD xbox live 1.0 servers. Halo 3 and Halo:Reach run on the Xbox Live 2.0 servers.
Halo 2 wasn't the only old Xbox only FPS to die that day. Along with Halo 2 died: Counter Strike for xbox, Star Wars Battle Front 2 for Xbox, And pretty much any other original Xbox original, Xbox live compatible game. I bet though if Halo: Combat Evolved had Live multiplayer more people would be complaining about that instead of Halo 2.

Now before you go off on me and call me a cod fanboy (god forbid)
Even though i might not have played it as much as the rest of you. I loved that game. It was the first Halo game I played and the one that got me hooked on Halo. Even though I sucked really bad my first time (i was like nine at the time so give me a break.) I had fun and my first kill was an assassination. The first map i played was lockout. I played 2 or 3 matches a day or two before they shut it down. I did horrible, but I had fun! I downloaded all the maps too. After they shut it down i decided to go back and just mess around on the maps i downloaded. I got to the title screen and it said an update was required for the game from Xbox live. I clicked update and It destroyed all my DLC maps. So i just played a few levels of campaign. To this day I REGRET not playing Halo 2 a little more before it died.

The Reach servers run on the old Halo 2 servers not the Halo 3 ones.

Hopefully not for a looooong time - probably a year or 2 after the 720 comes out (just guessing on its name)

Yep. This time around I'm going to make sure that I have automatic shutoff turned off, and I'm going to be one of the last people. With Halo 2 I only made it to the last 150 people.

hi

halo 3 will not be gone until my copy is pryed from my cold dead fist.

  • 11.27.2010 12:17 AM PDT

Next Christmas maybe? But it will never be lost in my heart!

  • 11.27.2010 2:40 AM PDT

Something Witty.

It'll be years, think Halo 2 was still playable 6 years after its release, and probably would still have people playing had Microsoft not pulled the plug on original games. Bungie obviously wont put much effort into Halo 3, but I don't see why they can't leave it up and running.

  • 11.27.2010 9:40 AM PDT

never, I hope not because to this day on i still play halo 3 than halo reach.
