What do you, a member of the Halo Community, feel is the best Halo game?

Please explain why your preferred Halo is the best.

I prefer Halo 3 because it was a kind of a mix between Halo 2 and CE. But the level design of Halo 2 was the best but not the gameplay.

  • 02.19.2011 6:16 AM PDT

Allround: reach. For campaign and for its time: Halo CE.

Halo 2 had the best story in that it was the most in depth of the games. Halo 2 showed us inside the covenant and had the best characters. Keyes was cool in CE, but he was the only real character. In Halo 2 the characters all filled their roles really well. In Halo 3 all of the bad guys were just really angry, which made them less scary than the cold, calculating enemies in 2.

Halo: Reach was awful, they tried to tell the story of s group of people in the war, and it didn't work. The characters were all cliches, making the story sound cheap. Oh yeah, it also trampled canon.

Your point is interesting, as your saying Halo 2 storyline and characters were great, the focus on the Covenant culture was amazing but what makes me say that i prefer Halo 3 is purely the gameplay

Fair enough, I guess that different games place differently depending on which criteria you use. Gameplay often ends up with Halo 3 or Reach, while story often leads to Halo CE or Halo 2.

/smite everyone

First of all, you forgot Halo 3: ODST and Halo Wars. These are still technically Halo titles so... yeah.
Secondly, Halo: Reach is my favorite because Grifball has its own playlist! Also because of the Focus Rifle, I love that thing.

yeah, that's what i think, except for Reach, i wouldn't put it neither in the gameplay bucket nor the story bucket, because of the canon problem and because the gameplay wasn't...halo-ish. I'm not saying i didn't like it, i liked it but it was different.

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.
/slow clap for respect

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

I´m probably going to say Reach. It really showed a human side to the Spartan´s and to the conflict.

Then I cant decide between ODST and CE.

  • 02.19.2011 8:08 AM PDT

Halo 2 had the best Storyline and Multiplayer IMO. I have been playing them since Halo CE, but Halo 2 is what really got me into it.

"Were it so easy..." -Thel Vadame.

Halo 3. I just loved it. And as much as I loved Halo 2's story- I love replaying the Halo 3 campaign. The whole thing is just epic. The art and design level in the environment is amazing.

It's just that instant "thats my favorite game" kinda game.

Each game has different aspects to it.

Racism isn't wrong if it's funny.

I love Halo 3. It is the game that made me a devotee of Bungie. I also felt like it was the first Halo to involve strong emotional story elements, and I found myself becoming invested in the characters. I think it was also the most epic and I feel like it was an amazing way to close out one of the best science fiction stories of all time.

Thank you, Bungie!

The best campaign I say is Halo: Combat Evolved. Best Multiplayer Mods was Halo: Custom Edition for the Mac and PC.

Overall best Multiplayer I think is Halo 2.

  • 02.19.2011 12:08 PM PDT

I'm agent Nahman Jayden, eff-bee-eye.

Halo 2 and Halo Wars are my favorites. Reach is my least favorite.

  • 02.19.2011 12:16 PM PDT

Games I like:,
Half-Minute Hero
MBU
Portal
Halo 3 is the best Halo ever
Maps I like: Turf, Avalanche, Pylon, Sandbox, Breakpoint and many more.

Halo 2. That stunning piece of space opera, telling the tale of one man's struggle to save his race, while the tale of an outcast, wanting nothing more then redemption... Halo's 2 campaign was amazing. Multiplayer was amazing. Getting that overkill with the banshee of coagulation was fun.

Halo 3 is really short campaign. The gameplay isnt that good, but the story is magnificent. The final battle of the human and sanghelli race. It just sumed up halo 2. Multiplayer in halo 3 was the best. Valhalla, rats nest, isolation... These are some of my favourite maps.

ODST was okay, firefight was nice. Havent played it mucht though.

Wars was awesome, commanding your armies to destory your enemies.

Reach was horrible. The campaign may have been telling a story, but even thugh bungie wanted to get the original core of Combat evolved, they screwed up. To many mistakes on their part. Im not comlaining, but Reach was probaly the most awful game Ive ever played. And I love it! (Just invasion and BTB)

C:E Was awesome. Pure awesome. Running around on Halo was the best expierence Ive felt playing a video game.

The Reach maps were terrible. I've enjoyed all, but my 2 favorite were CE and H3.

  • 02.19.2011 12:30 PM PDT

It varies upon which feature on the game.e.g. matchmaking = Halo 3 etc...

  • 02.19.2011 3:29 PM PDT

thou shall not smite thee. thou shall smite thi with gluteus maximus fire.

so you suddenly think no one likes halo wars or odst
