Halo 3 is my favorite game of all time, period. That's multiplayer, single player, co-op campaign, everything. I -blam!- love halo 3 and I include ODST coz it has Halo 3 in the title =)

halo 2 had its run


Halo 2's run is up and while times change improvements will be made. Halo 2 fanboys can not handle this change and will cling to their childhood memories and let it get the best of them.

it is an awesome experience, i agree but my point was all vidoes when they get sequels start to go down hill its always inevitable. i had fun playing halo 2 with my friend we would stay up all night playing campaign over and over again. it was some of the best times ive had, but once halo 3 came out we hardly ever played. it just went down hill.

na, it has so many unique things not present in other halo's. It would be a great loss to popular culture for it to be perminitly taken away.

possibly the best game ever created will be brought back despite others.

key word is possibly greatest. halo 3 was about equal in popularity. sure halo 2 has unique elements so did all the other halos.

This is a Reach account that I created the day they announced his name in a bnet weekly update. Any stats regarding ODST or Halo 3 are irrelevant. Also, Halo CE master race. Halo 1 > other halo games > other games.

People already know my opinion on this (see Poll that keeps getting bumped), but I just think we just need to see Halo 4. I also think it's too early for a CE remake. I think exploring a Forerunner planet would be incredible and refreshing. Bring back the feel you got when first playing Halo. amorite?

actually it felt short of expectations... h3 did. it sold the same amount of h2 and didn't build on the very strong base of h2 ane ce. to me h3 was the biggest failure in gameing history.

I think it sold a lot more than Halo 2 actually. It was about the same in early 2008 (Halo 3 had 8.1 million, Halo 2 had 8) and since then a lot of people jumped on Halo 3. I remember at one point hearing 13 million, but that was at least 1-2 year(s) ago. If you look at the total player counts of Halo 2 and Halo 3 you can see the huge difference.

Click the reference link. Halo 3's Wikipedia # is from Jan. 2008 only a few months after Halo 3's release. It's much more than that by now seeing how it's over 3 years since then. I remember it hitting 13 million a couple years ago.

Halo CE is probably gotten a bunch of downloads since 2005 (the reference date), too. I know a friend who never played it because he only played Gamecube, but he bought it off the marketplace when he got his 360.

Halo ODST was marketed as a $60 add on with no matchmaking. It makes sense that it would have low numbers, but still I felt it was a good game. Even ODST's 3 million statistic is from one week after it's release. I personally didn't get it till much later and I know the same goes for others because of the BETA hype.

Reach's numbers are way off because the 3.3 million listed that Reach sold are the amount it sold in the first 24 hours.

So what is your point anyway, you just stated the obvious....old game, less players. Some old games get remakes and some don't so CE and H2 both may or may not get remade. Certainly nobody on this forum can say for sure either way.

Yes, god forbid fans ever want to play their favorite Halo game online again.

Microsoft runs a business. They kept the game online for 6 years. Towards the end they had to give away microsoft points to get people to play it again. Look at Halo 3 today. It's probably around 100,000 +/- 20,000 (per 24 hours). Halo 2 was less than 2,000 (per 24 hours) for several years. Even the weekends barely cracked 3,500. It just didn't make sense to keep up what became a cult game. There were some who played over 10,000 games and kept up with it till the end, but that was a small portion of the halo community. Even when they announced it was the end it was ignored by many. Halo 2 was good for its time, but it was probably the least popular of the major titles. It's too early to tell Reach's legacy, but I mean out of the first three titles it was probably the least popular.

i think all of the Halos should be playable on xbox live, it would give all of us the game we want.

Halo 2 ran on servers that have been shut off and aren't compatible with Xbox 360.

that's why they have to remake it, I hope they don't change much of the game though.

They don't have to because they do things based on profitability. It could be helpful for marketing, but it would make much more sense just to make a Halo 4 or 5. Especially, then they can build their fasebase to gamers who may have been turned off to Halo 2 or are young and can't handle old gen graphics.

No...H3 was the best graphics... despite h2...it also had the best maps...

Halo reach has better graphics than H3, and many of the h3 maps are remade and brought back H2 maps.

They are not remade the same at all because the textures are not even close. Reach is a lot grittier. It's more halo 2 style actually, because Halo 3 had a lot of randomish details. I prefer Halo 3 graphics to Reach to be completely honest. The Xbox has already been pushed to its full limits, but maybe this new disc format update that they are planning will up the capabilities with the next Halo title.

Halo 3 maps were trash.

Snowbound, Isolation, default Foundry, Epitaph, Construct, Narrows, Sandtrap, Blackout, really just awful.

Halo: Reach's gfx are heads above Halo 3's. Maybe if Halo 3 had some anti-aliasing, it would be closer, but it's not. Theater mode does it more justice than it really is.

lol all those maps are great in Halo 3 except Snowbound (VETO VETO) and Campout. I love Epitaph and Isolation is good for FFA or Objective. The other maps are great for pretty much everything so troll harder.
