Subject: Post why you like Halo 3 better then Halo Reach if you.

Ever since I got MW2 in October I've been all COD, and I barley played Halo. I came back to Halo, and I like Halo 3 more then Halo Reach. Here is why. In Halo 3 the environments are great for all combats, offense, defense, sniping, sneaking, and *sigh* camping. You and your teamates can all go and charge at enemy team and fight for your team. Halo Reach, you try, but it just doesn't feel right. Now I love in the Invasion map Highrise or whatever sniping at the elites as a Spartan and charging and firing as an Elite is awesome, but all the other maps, it just doesn't feel the same. In Halo 3 with the weapons and -blam!-, you can just shoot, shoot, and keep shooting. In Halo 3 the maps are big enough so enemies come toward you and you reign hell on them. Halo 3 just had a badass feeling charging to the base firing bullets at the enemy. In Halo Reach everyone comes at you at a damn angle and it's impossible. I like a challenge, but Halo Reach is where you fire some bullets but the bullets in Halo Reach are so damn slow and the environments are the same, it's repeating itself. Then next thing you know, bam, a Warthog comes out and your dead. Halo 3 is the opposite. I can go on and on about this. So you may be wondering, "you like Halo 3 better, go play it!" Like I said, now that Halo Reach is out, it doesn't feel right.
RIP Halo 3

The maps are way more diverse on halo 3 than in reach. Maybe I don't like the maps in reach because they just feel too natural. Getting armor in H3 just seems like more of a challenge than getting it in reach(not to mention the H3 armor is cooler). The ONLY thing I like better about H3 than Reach is that the forge in reach is so much better. Reach does have its moments every now and then, but in the grand scheme of things, Halo 3 will always be the better out of the two.
