Subject: What If Halo 3 Turns Out To Be Like Halo 2?

Posted by: Johnny Orcface
I'm talking about how Bungie just totally noobed it up. Halo 2 took no skill at all. Will Halo 3 appeal to the hardcore gamer, or will Bungie pull another Halo 2 and appeal to the 6 year olds on Xbox Live?


NO skill at all?

Clearly, if skill is not a factor, than luck must be the only factor. Therefore, every game should end in a virtual 25-24 draw, if it's so rock=paper-scissors.

Think about it.

Nice try. Just because you got beat, doesn't mean Halo 2 takes no skill. I hate to break it to you, but you aren't the greatest player ever. You're just another dude. Halo 2 takes plenty of skill.

Isn't it funny how all the people who didn't like Halo 2 are automatically assumed to suck at it?

Reach MMO. Here's to hoping.

And the people that believe "the hardcore playlists would be more popular if the rules were strictly MLG" can come off it, now. If you're not willing to support something close to your own setup, there's no reason for us to believe that cloning our own lists and stripping the variety down will attract more people. -- Shishka, Bungie.net

they do!

don't they?

I must agree, they deffiently made this way to easy but its still a fun game, but quite frustrating when someone who really isn't as good as ypu can beart you down while you shoot them. Just make it a little harder , and we'll be golden... especially with the AR back.

Of course you suck at it. That's why you don't link your gamertag. Halo 2 is just as good as Halo 1.

I don't link my Gamertag?

Ever think that's because I DON'T HAVE ONE?

You fail.

If it isn't obvious enough by my signature, I play PC games.

How do you have the gall to say "someone who really isn't as good as you..."? You don't know that! If they beat you then they ARE as good as you. there is absolutly no logic in your statement. Only ego.

You don't have a gamertag? Then how the hell do you know how good Halo 2 is? You can't play on XBox Live without one.

I bet it will.

Halo CE was great because of multiplayer. Bungie took a winning formula and changed it in Halo 2. Furthermore, they didn't test the game as much as they should have. If they return to the formula of Halo CE, they will have another classic on their hands.

I would not have purchased halo 2 if I had played it first. I won't be duped again.

Please bungie....listen to the elite gamers this time and not hte soccer moms


I can't believe this garbage already. The damn game was just announced. If they took the "winning formula" (which last time I checked, Halo2 sold more copies than Halo1) from halo 1 and put it in halo3...what do you have...Halo1 with nicer graphics. I personaly don't like recycled games. I can't wait to see what new features they have in this game. And if you elite gamers are so awesome...you should have no problem winning on halo 2. The only reason you guys say it is noobified is so you can blame something else for your losing. Get use to the fact that there is someone better than U on live. Your not just playing with your little group of 10 friends at a LAN party anymore.

You sure are slow, aren't you?

I got Halo 2 at launch and played it religiously until I sold my Xbox last October, and I deleted my Gamertag along with it.

You should write a play. And become famous.

So that would imply that I suck too, since mine is hidden? Despite playing 1/7th of the amount of team slayer games that you have, and being 11 levels higher.

I'm good at Halo 2, yet IMO it's vastly inferior to Halo 1. Hate to burst your bubble, but not all people who dislike 2 are bad at it.

do you guys do any research before you come into the forum and bash bungie. they had a deadline that microsoft forced them to make. bungie isnt stupid enough to make a game like halo 2 bad, microsoft is. all of bungie's other games dont suck. so instead of flamming bungie, go out and flame microsoft for forcing a game to be released when it wasnt ready by the creator's ideals

Remember kids, Halo 2 can only be played on Xbox Live, and nowhere else.

You see, nobody has friends that they can play Halo 2 with, or any sort of tournament of any kind.

Right now I'm making a play where I, the main character, go to the Bungie fanboy's houses and MAKE them change their opinions.

Halo 2 is just as good as Halo 1. It's just that in Halo 1, you didn't get to play as many other people On-Line. So you thought you were the greatest player ever. Turns out, you weren't really that good when compared to millions of people. That pissed you off, so you said, "Halo 2 is too easy." Well I got news for you. You won't be very good at Halo 3 if you aren't very good at Halo 2.

I demand a ludicrous amount of gore, with at least one chiansaw beheading.

And possibly a motorcycle chase. On the stage.
