Just replayed the campaign. As empty as the first time I played it. Not only is it the worst halo campaign, but it's not even better than the average game.
you actually prefer 3's campaign over 2? 3 didnt have a good story or any good locations. the only good part in it IMO was using the mongoose for the first time: 6 mongooses with rocket launcher equiped marines waiting for the door to open - that part was quite epic but it didnt have any other good parts. the final level was terrible.
halo 2 on the other hand was a leap from C.E: dual wielding weapons, jacking vehicles, boss fights, lock-on rocket launchers, using the sword! + other endless factors made its multiplayer and campaign spectacular! 3 years of mind blowing gameplay, i will miss it

I swear I've probably beat the campaign 50 times. Hands down by far far the best in the series
halo 3's multiplayer was decent - not a shocker like C.E or 2, not a failure either like reach. needler not as fun to use because it gets easy kills and cant be dual wielded. maps could have been better (valhalla was a dissapointment when comparing to blood gulch/coagulation) + other reasons why its multiplayer is average but believe me on this one: halo 3's campaign = epic fail!
the new brute vehicles are terrible, should of kept the spectre, the elites and more so the brutes where pathetic: fact that brutes shaved of their fur and aren't as crazy as they where in 2 forever ruined them, their berserk was quite unconvincing while in 2 a berserking brute will have you run back to the other half of the map! shouldve kept the brute plasma rifle and never included the mauler IMO. elites armour in 3 looks too robotic
their simple, reptilian like appearance in 2 is bada55. at least 3 looks better then reaches elites: their armour is -BLAM!- stupid!
only thing new about halo 3's campaign seemed to be 343 guilty sparks boss fight, her fight wasnt even fun. tartarus, prophet of regret and heretic leader ftw
no point going into detail about halo reach, its campaign and multiplayer is boring, multiplayer could have been more fun if it had better maps but 2 is still superior. however the DMR is a pretty cool weapon so credit goes to bungie for puting that into the game, would never have thought of a cross between a BR and an SR.
another thing which made halo 2 more fun was its pistol, the m6c was so fun to use: high rof, medium damage, low range - how a pistol is meant to be + its design is awesome. ODST's pistol was good because of the silencer but not as fun to use because it couldnt be dual wielded. C.E's pistol was more like a DMR - could kill enemies right on the other side of blood gulch but 3's pistol was pathetic. thick design, dull plating, ridiculous recoilk considering its damage and limited ammo/ really should have had a higher ROF, maybe 2 more bullets a clip but yeah, plenty of other easons why 2 is still better.
its strange that halo 2's campaign was never a main feature of the game but is still the best campaign of the series while reach was the first game (i think, not sure about wars) to have a featured campaign but it turned out to be one of the worst campaigns in the series
