"Man will never be free until the last king is strangled with the entrails of the last priest." - Denis Diderot

I'm thinking of selling Black Ops and buying Halo 3. I was wondering if you could still find a match fast. I would mostly play Social Slayer/Big Team/Team Snipers.

I'm just really tired of overhyped games that turn out to be crap. So I though I would go back to a game I knew was fun.

EDIT - I got all the info I needed. So just let this thread die.

There's really no point in selling a game that you just spent 80 bucks on to buy a game you can pick up for 10. But yes, Halo 3 is good fun, and I wouldn't say it is dead. Social slayer still has plenty of players, but ranked playlists are getting pretty low.

I couldn't find a game in any play list (including Social Slayer) on a Saturday night. YMMV

Patience is the companion of wisdom.

I get social slayer games really fast but everything else takes time, especially during the day when most kids are at school or sleeping. It depends on the time. Weekends are the most active, it seems.

Your resident libertarian. Ron Paul 2012!

Girfball is still fun on Halo 3.

You can still get bin a match, but buy ODST.
You get all the maps, which most of the game modes need

Social slayer is almost instant. Big team can take a while and is oftentimes pretty laggy, but if you're willing to wait 2-3 minutes between games to find a new one you'll be fine. I hardly ever play snipers.
