Subject: Even though almost no one will probably see this...

I like Halo, and everything about it.

"A hero need not speak, for when he is gone, the world shall speak for him."

What do you think of Halo 3? When did you get it? Do you prefer it over Reach or vice versa?

I got Halo 3 in the seventh grade on Christmas, and now i'm a junior in highschool. I still love Halo 3 and play it from time to time despite the big names running the charts on xbox live now-a-days.

These past couple of days four years ago i was playing Halo 3 like it was my job. Now, no one really plays it anymore. I remember before Reach i would live on this forum nonstop and now its practically lifeless.

What are your favorite memories from this game? I like to see what people say, not really moreso just for views of this forum post i do actually enjoy the stories.

Well I got Halo 3 in 2008 and played it about until this June. It was a really fun game in which I had a lot of great experiences, whether it was me playing social or mlg. I liked it because you had to set goals, wanting to get to that level 40, then 45, 50. It's pretty washed up now so I might put it in once every week, but it's done. As in comparison to Halo Reach, Halo 3 is pretty inconsistent as well.. Bullet spread? Sure you can lead your shots but you shouldn't have to, it's still broken. Along with the netcode and how terrible the connection in a LOT of games were. Go to the Mlg forums and argue Halo 3 was better than Reach. You'll get a lot of interesting and intelligent replies about how Reach is better. Overall though I've had more fun on Halo 3 which is why I played it over Reach.

It was a really great game

Buy ODST = Great Campaign and all the maps for Halo 3. It's a win win for all types of players.

If it wasn't mandatory to have them, then the people like me that paid for the content would never get to play it. Now THAT is what is unfair. Don't whine. Instead buy ODST like the other guy said!

I run Skirmish!!!

I remember my teacher in senior year let my buddy and I leave class early so we could pick up halo 3. ( i did not go to the midnight release because of work and school)

then rushing home and been playing it ever since, with some breaks here and there for different games, but somehow i always end up coming back to this damn game haha

don't even get me started on that terrible reach game...

What do you think of Halo 3?
the first time i played it i thought the multiplayer was good (not great like HALO Combat Evolved or HALO 2) but the campaign was an ultimate disappointment. thats cool, wouldn't be a big deal but I SPENT $120 FOR THE DAMN THING, ONLY HALF MY MONEY'S WORTH!

Posted by: i S c o It It
When did you get it?
2 weeks after it was released i believe

Posted by: i S c o It It
Do you prefer it over Reach or vice versa?
i would prefer this over reach, too many trivial and major flaws in that game

it's a shame we have to wait over 5 minutes to get in a game sometimes

Well not really, MLG players i would believe would prefer Halo 3 over Reach any day really. I played Halo 3 one time after Reach dropped and the people in the lobby i played in all had Reach but they prefered Halo 3 more.

I miss it too you dont even know. So many good memories. So many. But like everyone else said just buy ODST its campaign is really really REALLY good and firefight is fun too. Plus, the maps come with it and if you buy it used its at the most not even 20 bucks which is a great deal.

And i like how my thread can stay at the top of the forum for more than a half hour and nobody comments on it. This forum used to be buzzing with life and its sad at how dead it is.

I know theres more people out there than i actually think that still love Halo 3 and this forum yet why is it so lifeless?

I got it in 6th grade and absolutely loved it. I still play it every now and then, though none of my friends seem to play it anymore. Custom games was one of the most fun parts of Halo and I hope to get some of my friends to play again.

I got halo 3 back in 2008. I was addicted and played until the day Reach came out. I perfer Reach over Halo 3. But there really close. The one thing Halo 3 had over Reach was cusom games. I do not know about you guys but it has been a while since I played a good custom game.

  • 12.30.2011 9:52 AM PDT

Started playing soon after release, but I didn't get an Xbox until 2010 (got Halo 3 right away). I've played Reach more, and I've got to say that Halo 3 is, and will always be 10x better.

  • 12.30.2011 5:36 PM PDT

I prefer Halo 3 to Halo Reach. The campaign was better, the multiplayer was better, the ranks were easier to know, there were no AA's. I found Halo 3 much more fun.

Pretty much all this.

Straight Edge.

Halo 3 is my most played game, since probably Halo 2. I got the Legendary Edition on Launch Day on my BEAN 88 gamertag. Played it like made all throughout Fall '07 and haven't really stopped playing it. I think it is better than Reach by a mile.

I'm playing right now actually :)

absolutely love it,
