The custom games were awesome, I met some of my best friends on Halo 3 custom games.

yes
And it makes me almost cry to think of all those custom maps not being played anymore.

Halo 3 is always going to be the best of the multiplayer series for me, its going to hold that special place in my heart.

I still listen to the music all the time, along with some classic Halo 2 and only play Halo 3 now.

Ahhh, such good memories.

Halo 3 was and still is a big part of my life. It is more than just a game and a community. There is so much that could be said about this game it's ridiculous. So Great!

The more I think about it, the more this makes me look forward to 343's next Halo Game. I reckon it will return more to Halo's routes than Reach did.

It is the best Halo game, next to Halo 2.

Don't get me wrong. Reach is amazing. I play it all the time. But I miss Halo 3. It is, without a shadow of a doubt, the best game I have ever played, and that I ever will play.

After thousands and thousands and thousands of matchmaking games, I fell in love with it. Reach does not have the same magic, sadly.

But that's not because Reach is bad. It is because Halo 3 was special. It was more than a game.

I just listened to some old Halo 3 music. And I nearly cried. I miss the main halo theme, I miss the Master Chief. I miss all of the amazing Music. I miss Brute choppers, I miss the graphics! I miss the last level, I miss Guardian, the Pit, and all of the other amazing maps.

Who else feels the same way? And what do you miss about Halo 3?

If this is the best game you've ever played I feel sorry for you.

Were it so easy.

Halo 3 had better gameplay.

The fact you cannot duel-wield, have regenerating shields, and are forced to have classes and stupid abilities KILLED Reach's multiplayer for me. Halo 3's equippment was way better and fun to use.

Yumzor

The skill factor is what I like in Halo 3

Halo Reach is nothing but luck, extremely easy sniping, and overpowered vehicles

I have severe nostalgia for Halo 3. The best game. Ever. Not just the best Halo game, but the best game in general. I had the most fun with this game then any other game. So many hours of fun with friends and solo. The campaign was simply amazing. I replayed it many, many times. The multiplayer and the map. OMG THE MAPS. Were so amazing. It blows Reach away. I strongly dislike Reach, in fact. Wish it was never made...

Shoryuken!

Mythic Mode Progress on Reach:
Winter Contingency, perfection.
Other levels in progress.

Will always be better than Reach.

1. G.O.D for H1, and go to a second hand game store for Halo 2.
2. XBC for online gameplay.
3. ???
4. Profit

When you see me.. its to late.

haha ive recently got another xbox and got halo 3 with it.. forced into playing an older game when ive been playing reach for so long. has made me enjoy the old girl again. i miss the old days on halo 3 nonstop chaos all night through no end to great or fudged games.. now its filled mostly with players who've come off playing reach after a long time unpracticed to the older model or new players.. so comes pretty easy to win now. not as fun i must Admit!

I am in the exact same boat brother, Reach is a great game but it is missing that "Magic Touch" that Halo 3 had within it.

An insane letdown. Like a brick wall to your whole gaming career you've had in your life since you first time picked up a controller.

I did enjoy Halo 3 beta quite a bit while it lasted, though. And the trailers.

-blam!- you above poster.

I came very late to the party. May 2010. I picked up Halo 3 and and an Xbox 360 and, I was in love. The game was just, lovely. It was pure beauty. I convinced my friends to buy an XBOX 360, Halo 3, and an XBOX LIVE account, they all did, and I had SO much fun with them playing. May-August 2010 was one of the funniest times in my life. During that time, I saw the trailers for Reach, and of course got excited, but still played Halo 3. A few days before Reach, my best friend invited me to a game on this huge map one of his friends made, and it was a surprise game, all my friends were there, on my team and all of his were there, on his team, and we had a huge shootout on this huge custom Sandbox map on Halo 3. The map was awesome, on each back side, there were two bases with a lot of vehicles, and the bases were perfect with defense, offense, and sniping. We had a great time. On the night before Reach, my best friend and I had a quick final match on a map I downloaded, which was ok. In the morning I picked up Reach. On the first few days I played it like Hell, but then I realized, "This isn't as fun as Halo 3." I went back to Halo 3, and it was dead. And all my friends and I moved on to MW2, which is a fun game, but not as good as Halo 3. But a few days ago my friends and I got in a big fight which I don't think we will recover from. Ugh. With my friends gone and the Halo 3 community gone, I will never be able to relive those days.

RIP Halo 2

Halo 3, to me, was originally a disappointment. I liked the campaign a lot, but I didn't really like the multiplayer maps, I didn't like all of the random, unnecessary guns in team slayer, and I didn't like all of the stupid equipment. I didn't like the overall feel of the game. I really missed Halo 2. Don't get me wrong, I played the game a lot, and I really enjoyed it, it was just that it constantly made me mad because I didn't think it was nearly as good as Halo 2(still don't). I quit playing it after a couple of years. Then Reach came out. I played that a little. Got it for Christmas and started playing it pretty regularly. Liked it at first, but then it made me appreciate Halo 3 a little more. Reach has terrible maps and the mechanics just feel awful. But the way I tend to look at all of the Halos is that Halo CE and Halo 2 were the first generation and easily the best, then Halo 3 and Reach were the second generation, and they were good, but just not as good.

tl;dr, Disappointed at first with Halo 3, but Reach made me actually miss Halo 3. Halo 3 was still nothing compared to the first Halos, though.
