I'm on H3 now, there is 5,700 people online.

Somehow, I don't think it's increasing.


Simon on H3? I thought you were done permanently. Hmm well at any rate, do you wana run Reach MLG with me when it comes out? Im pretty much done with H3 now.

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.

the population in halo 3 is a bit larger again since Reach came out. One night there was 60,000 on Reach and 30,000 on Halo 3.

Yeah, I decided to play a few more games. New accounts are pretty much useless on Reach, and I have a 3 month that's sitting there doing nothing. Figured I may as well use it while people still play Halo 3.

And Reach MLG? Sure. I won't be playing all that much, but I'm happy to run it with you when I'm on.

Sweet ya idk im not playin xbox so much anymore, its just not as fun as it once was, then again iv been in a constant bad mood for the past few days, my luck has been unbelivable. It feels like I ran under 100 ladders, and kicked at least 20 black cats, oh and blew up a mirror shop. Ill tell you more next time I can get on, which btw I cant even get into my room long enough to turn my xbox on.... Ughh frustration

Posted by: meagsIZbeastYeah, thanks to Reach I've played a LOT less lately. I'm thinking of selling my xbox as well. I just don't find any other games fun, I'm too used to Halo 3. I'm waiting it out to know more about 343's new game. If it looks bad, I'm selling my Xbox.

That, plus my account runs out soon, and I don't know if I want to renew it (even though I probably will). Plus, working 5 days and gym every day I don't really have a whole lot of time anyway..

BUT, until I know more about 343's game, I'll run Reach MLG with you when we're both on.

Also, it sucks for you to man, sounds like you're very busy at the moment. Probably a good thing, although it sounds like you're pretty strung out right now. Maybe take a day off?

I'm headin to bed.. I have to be up for work in 7 hours.

I'll talk to ya next time.

"Forged in the flames of passion and perseverance. Go forth and represent."

All my friends are boycotting reach and having been sticking with Black Ops which is really fun and halo 3. Plus all the MLG pros are boycotting reach and trying to keep halo 3 on the circuit for another year as their refusing to play reach. You can still see most pros playing MLG in halo 3 on a good night.

I could still find H2 games until it got taken off live almost 6 years post launch. I think H3 will be just fine.

  • 12.01.2010 2:48 PM PDT

halo 3 is still the best multi player out there reach and black ops got all this meda saying game of the year when they turn out to be bad. the developers are too much into graphic but have bad game play bring halo 3 graphic with good game play that will b game of the year.

One can only hope, but Black Ops kinda killed H3's rebirth. In September and October H3 had twice as many players as Reach, but now it's kinda hit a low: 500k in September to about 20k in December. This is unfortunate, because this is still a very good game with every kink worked out of it.

This game is still #1 to me, so in the words of Bill Pullman: "We will not go quietly into the night! We will not vanish without a fight! We're going to live on."

I git sick of reach so me and my mates had a blast. guardian old friend, i missed you! halo 3 is a million times better than reach though!

No it isnt, Reach is a far better quality game with balanced weapons and vehicles.

lol if you werent joking I suggest you learn the definition of balanced

  • 12.01.2010 11:30 PM PDT

Simply put, H3 is an infinitely better game than Reach.

I like Halo 3 more than I like Reach. In every possible way, with the exception of Reach's vastly superior netcode/shot registration.

The only problem being, Halo 3 has such a miniscule population in the high searches ranges that it prevents me from playing it. I don't like waiting 5 minutes for a game, much less 2 minutes. I also don't like the fact that I can't search in anything bigger than a party of 2 anymore.

For all of Reach's obvious faults, it has a more healthy population and finding games isn't really an issue. And no, I dont want to come back to Halo 3 to play social. Thats boring.

  • 12.02.2010 7:08 AM PDT

I DO have time to bleed...i just dont want to.

reach is halo its just a little different

thats because everyone commits suiside in december lol hahaha

  • 12.02.2010 7:43 AM PDT

8th in STICKTOBERFEST 2009

the population has been going up even if the population counter on halo 3 has been messing up a lot because its become easier and easier to find game in every playlist whether there double exp or not people comeback from reach because they don't like it any more or because they want to play a halo style game instead of a COD style game or because they just like playing halo 3

In social I tend to find the same people over again. I don't search in ranked alone anymore, I don't even want to see how much times I will see the same kids i play over and over again in ranked.

Simply put, that's your opinion, and in no way a fact.
I love Halo 3 for what it was. It was my first online shooter. Now finally it's dying, and its kind of sad to see it go. Man how I'll miss BTB on Valhalla and Sandtarp...BRs on the pit...I'm sure in time I'll create the same memories I had with 3...but for now its a void that I can't fill.
