This is the last game in the series (so you say) and this game should belong to the Master Chief! That's why Halo 2's ending sucked! You were the arbiter on the last level! Please no arbiter, or at least not as much! Please Bungie!

Let's get it own!

I agree, the Arbiter was fun for a while, but I really don't give a -blam! about him, The Chief is who I keep coming back for.

The only thing that the arbiter has that the chief doesn't is invisibility. The chief needs to have invisibility!!

We are the Halo Generation.

Exactly.

I mean, I don't want to finish off this amazing series playing as someone other than Chief.

He makes a fine point...

Halo's main character is Spartan 117, although the covenant is a big part of the game, it shouldnt be TOO big. Like he mentioned above, although i disagree...Halo2's ending didnt suck, but i didnt like it because of the Arbiter

So please bungie, make me proud and only play like 2-4 levels with the arbiter in H3!

In my opinion the levels with the Arbiter in wernt as good as the ones with Master Chief. But if Arbiter isnt in Halo 3 i'm gonna want to know why. Also he kind of grows on you...like some kind of alien/squid pet

Great idea, but probably wouldn't work....

  • 05.17.2006 1:54 PM PDT

i liked playing as the arbiter and i agree with you that they should make two campaigns so if you don't want to play as the arbiter you don't get all the story

If you were MC for the very last level of halo 2 it still would have sucked, people didnt like it because of the cliff hanger. I agree that playing as mc was more fun then arby but that is because his levels didnt have much to do with the main story which is why most people play campaign, The arbiter pretty much stopped some rebels found a key and killed a big gorilla while the chief helped defend earth, brought down a giant machine, killed a prophet, and so much more.

Well, I didn't really mind playing as the Arbiter, and I was actually looking forward to killing some marines... But nevertheless it would be cool to play as the Arbiter without any of the weaker covenant weapons.

You think it got what it takes to be..?.


God forbid you send me one of those I was checking for cool gamers and saw you messages too, I will scream to the top of my lungs and smash this damn screen/BlackBerry to pieces! You've been warned -_-

The arbiter is fun but I think Halo 3's last level should go to the arbiter and MC. If the arbiter is gonna be in Halo3, he needs some new threads.

The Arbiter is now an important part of the story, whether you like it or not. Taking him out would leave a big hole. I personally think playing him showed a lot of how the Covenant work and added tons to the story.

As a matter of fact I think they should put the arbiter in Halo 3. Forget you guys who said no arbiter in Halo 3

i too think that the MC is the only one for H3. all of the arbiter's levels were mazes and filled with flood.

the arbiter made the ending and cheif was the last character we saw in the ending movie so cheif finished it. i think if the arbiter levels didnt have flood all the time and the arbiter didnt speak english with the others then it would be way more fun. like if the arbiter had a heart but didnt seem so weak thenit would be kick a

I don't mind playing as the arbitor, but it think that he should sacrifice his life to save the chief, that would be the best way for him to die.

I didn't really like the Arbiter mission because they were dark and Floody. The Elite teamates were quite good though. Maybe make it one person as the Chief and one person as the Arbiter in Co-Op? Online Co-op
