If you gotta ask, you can't afford it.

Frank O'Connor said he doesn't think the Halo series needs to be taken in a radical new direction... it just needs to go "deeper"

"Ultimately the core game mechanic and strength of the universe doesn't need to be changed, it just needs to be taken deeper. We want to make Halo games - we don't want to make Call of Duty or Ridge Racer. We want to make Halo games because we understand what's special about Halo."

I went outside today. The graphics were AMAZING. The gameplay WASN"T.

Maybe I should cry for help
Maybe I should kill myself
Blame it on my ADD baby

The maps are better, the matchmaking system is better and it is more competitive.

In my opinion.

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

It's just more fun usually, but in no way is it more balanced.

Losing on Halo 3 is more fun then winning on Reach.

Halo 3 will always be better cause i can't do this in reach, even on host!

Please drop price of ODST or at least put maps on marketplace Bungie! :(

Halo 3 is better than Reach in every possible way. The only way reach is better is forge and firefight, but then again who spends all their time on that lol? Not to mention Reach's multiplayer was a fail including theater, armour abilities, reticule bloom, and the campaign was boring as hell.

I'd play Halo 3 a lot more if it had Reach's improved netcode.

Fact 2: European guys are hotter

I guess I can understand if you don't want to make out with guys in the US if they're so ugly, you should just say so though.

There really is no game better.

halo 3 actualy takes skill to get high ranks. reaches ranking system takes no skill. it is all about how long you play and not how good you are. Reach is too nooby with jetpacks and etc

Old guy reference? On Topi- Right now, I'm enjoing Halo 3 more for the balanced muliplayer. Reach is fun, but gets on my nerves some times.

Problems with Halo 3:
BR is overpowered
AR is nooby (it's not at medium range in reach)
Pistol doesn't have a scope
Too repetetive due to lack of armour abilities.
No stockpile
No invasion
Worse forge and therefore worse community maps.

However:
maps are better in Halo 3 (admittedly it's harder to design maps for Reach due to AAs)
The chopper is fun.
Warthog is more powerful
ghosts are more powerful
BR is more balanced vs vehicles than the DMR.
