Reach has ended my 5 year addiction to Halo. Thanks Bungie!

Pioneer and Enthusiast for Halo 3.

I have seen numerous of thread like this and I will say what I always say.

It all depends on what I feel like I want, and what I'm trying to satisfy (gamer needs.)

Halo CE
Of course, from time to time, we all enjoy Halo CE and the epic itself even without XBL connection. It never gets old running through the campaign for the zillionth time, does it? Nope. I'll generally ONLY play it if I get tired of all the other Halo games which can happen from time to time. This is such a nice break from all the chaos and try-hards who think they're too bad ass for life.

Halo 2
I have to say that I am always in the mood to play Halo 2 just about for any reason. If I'm looking for a stunning campaign, or wanting to run through the isolation feeling on each map of a dead community. I enjoy the solitude feeling that no other Halo game brings me anymore. CE has been taken over with CEA and no longer brings me that feeling of a dead or isolated feel. Halo 2 is special. I'll tel to mainly play it for just a quick run through on a few maps. Alone of course.

Halo 3
Everyone can say that when this title came, mostly everyone was frustrated with the lame spread. I have come to understand, love and most of all respect Halo 3 and it's BR. I will always have a strong desire to play this title EXCEPT that Halo Reach is in fact a newer title. Which means anything competitive these days relates to Reach and NOT Halo 3.

Halo Reach
Boring. I feel forced to play it...

I fairly sure that if his IQ was 4, he'd be a vegetable. Or a rock with aspirations of being a vegetable.

It's not as good as Halo 2 but it's still an incredible game!

Halo 2 > Halo 3 > Halo 3 ODST > Halo Reach > Halo CE

Based on campaigns.

My opinions on the campaigns

Halo CE

Its not bad, but the mission Assault on the Control Room was enough to lower my opinion of the entire game. I detest everything about it. Aside from that, other things i dislike are the level design, because it all look the same the whole way through and i always get lost, the soundtrack because it isnt really to my taste and innheneral it can be quite tedious at times and dull. And jot knowing where to go half the time doesnt help

Also, whats the big deal with the Flood innthis game? Its not that dramatic,myou just walk through a door and they're just there.

Halo 2

Its a disaster. The dullness and tediousness, the level designs, they're all disasters in their own rights. The one exceptionnis the the mission The Arbiter. I like the level design, farely easy to navigate and fewer timemsoent not engaged. But apart from that, its a disaster, enough said.

Halo 3

I love it to bits. The level designs, while farely linear at times, and great andkeep you playing and entertained. Asoloutely no getting lost and loads of action. I love the storyline as well, and the characters, the enemies, the missions, the emtire engine. Its amazing and its ky favourite halo campaign.

Halo 3 ODST

My second favourite Halo campaign. I really like the cocept of the Mombasa Streets being a 'hub' for finding ll the levels. Theflashback missions are great, plenty of action and an engaging and intense storyline. The last mission, Coastal Highway, was magnificent. So well designed and action packed. O was on the edge of my seat. Its a great game.

Halo Reach

Its not bad, but not particularly great. Maybe its just that it was such a sudden change to the series. I disliked the lack of Forerunner artifacts and the Flood, but they werent in the storyline. As a game itself, i think ts quite qell made. Fighting and action all the way through. However, there is a slight lack of plot development. It all just seemed lile you were just running around killing things for a while. But its quite good, better than Halo 1 and 2 (zips up flamesuit).

I am not including Halo Wars because i havent played it and its byna different developer plusnthe fact that its a totally different genre.

So,mthere are my opinions on all the Halo campaigns. Tl;dr Halo 3 is thr best, followed by ODST, Reach, CE and then H2

Please note than any poor grammar is down to this iPad, not me

thanks for a more respectable opinion of the game this time. before when you kept bashing on about how HALO 2 sucked and selling the game for lunch money gave you a satisfactory feeling was immature.
i still recommend you give the level Gravemind another chance (the level where MC says boo to a grunt at the start)

Many people would prefer Halo 2

HALO 3 had a good multiplayer but the campaign was an ultimate disappointment
HALO 3: ODST made up for HALO 3's campaign

HALO 2 was a true work of art: campaign, soundtrack and multiplayer

HALO Combat Evolved had a spectacular multiplayer thanks to blood gulch in favour of the game engine (miss how the ghost hovers of anything parallel to it's bottom, not just the ground)

I prefer Halo 1. Can't beat the classics.
but the campaign was overrated tbh, the main reason people hold the original above the rest is because of the nostalgic gameplay during the games prime

HALO Reaches campaign? 4/10 for me, not something i'd finish more then twice. as for the multiplayer: worst maps in the series so far IMO
