Reach does technically but I like Halo 3's style a lot more.

R.I.P. Halo 2 <33333333
Do not play halo much anymore. Barely ever come on here.

I personally like Halo 3's better, but then again, I am a halo 3 fanboy and hate reach.

Are You Serious?

I love motion blur...

Reach. That's not an opinion. That is a fact. And no, it is not arrogance stating an opinion as fact. It is actually a fact.

The question should be what ART STYLE do you like more then. Because Reach's graphics are undeniably better. It's just the art style (color scheme and things like that) that you can have an opinion on.

wow halo reach is STILL BAD!!!

Reach is far more detailed, but Halo 3 uses many more vibrant colors.

this. makes no sense why reach would look visually less appealing. all the maps look like -blam!-.

Infection in Halo 3 isn't zombie killing; it's ethnic cleansing. Have you ever noticed that these "zombies" are just black Spartans?

I'd love to be able to transplant the graphical quality of Reach into Halo 3.

Dem polygons.

Saving the galaxy has never looked so good.

Halo Reach undoubtedly has better graphics, but no one wants to admit it. I think everyone loves Halo 3 still, since it was generally just a better game, especially for when it was made. It is lacking some things that Reach has, which is why Reach is currently more popular. But if you were only allowed to play one and the other was erased from your memory, what would it be? For me, probably Halo 3. Many reasons support this. The campaign was better, personally, I like the look of the sandbox map over forge world. I also enjoyed Halo 3's maps better, but the only place Reach is better is the multiplayer gameplay itself, like the armor abilities, and the jumping, running, etc. All of this compiled together is the reason no one really wants to fully admit Halo Reach has better graphics.

Good character is not formed in a week or a month. It is created little by little, day by day. Protracted and patient effort is needed to develop good character.

Obviously Reach.

Halo 3's graphics didn't have floating rocks and enormous holes.

Halo 3 looks better to me. Too many newer games try and look too realistic and it just doesn't look good.

I prefer reach but i agree with the second part of your post, the uncanny valley takes effect in lots of newer games.

Better graphics, Reach.

Better aesthetics, Halo 3 without a doubt.

It ruins a lot of games too, realism (GTA4)

AXIOS you idiot.

Just remember that no matter how terrible you feel, or how much you want to let go, there are people who care about you and love you.

I like Reach's gritty, not as clean look.

Reach's graphics are better, but when it comes to art style I prefer Halo 3's environments, but find the grittier style of Reach's player models to be preferable.

Halo Reach has a better graphics engine, but fails at being gritty.

Halo 3 has an underpowered graphics engine (in comparison), but succeeds at keeping the cartoony, yet believable look that it has.

Looks like CEA may surpass them both.

  • 11.01.2011 4:39 AM PDT

Seriously dude

Alright. Halo:Reach HAS better graphics, because of the higher polygon count, higher render options, better engine collision capabilities, etc, etc, etc.

The art style is purely subjective to your taste. I like Reach's over 3's.
