I do. I must say that Halo 3 held much more of a classic feel, that felt more like Halo than CoD. Or rather "Reach."

I ♥ Bungie!

Yes I do.

Sometimes, I dream about cheese.

seeing as Halo Reach doesn't have any decent maps, i'd say Halo 3

Oh yeah, since somebody does not believe what YOU believe; that makes us vapid...
I cannot grasp that what you call "Something happened to nothing, and that nothing became something, and it was smaller than than a period."

Yes, for various reasons.

Even though its hard to forge in Halo3 its much more enjoyable to play halo 3 customs than reach customs

I run Skirmish!!!

HALO on HALO game type and map in halo 3. Enough said. Still the best race track/infection map in halo 3 and reach

Reach. The vastly improved custom options and forge 2.0 improved things so much. In many ways, reach was built entirely for customs.

so how do you explain the non textured forge pieces compared to halo 3? everything in reach is gray and dull

You can change color on pieces, rotate with snaps, phase things together, and so much more. Yes, you sacrifice some textures, but building around terrain in forge world is always an option, and it's not like there's no sandbags, crates, dumpsters, and other details to work with depending on the map.

The only bad things I can say about Reach's custom games and forge is the colour pallet. The "Insane" gametype alone beats Halo 3's customs. Although I also agree the maps as a whole were better on Halo 3.

yeah i get where your going and i loved all the features you mentioned, but for certain maps i wanted to make, i needed textures like the ones on sandbox in halo 3... Merging and phasing in reach though, were great features.

Half of what I say is true. The other half are also lies.

The main problem with Reach forge controls was that the Monitor revolved around the item, so you would end up in walls all the time and you can't teleport with an item.

Halo 3 is so much better then Halo Reach is every way shape or form. Its too much like Call of Duty. Now I love Call of Duty, its of my favorite game franchises,but I came to play Halo not Call of Duty.

I know good MLG kids who spent hours playing custom MLG on The Pit and Guardian. They'd sit and talk in lobby for like 15 minutes before we got enough people to join, too.

I feel that Halo 3 was better overall, and one aspect that was infinitely better were the Custom Games. I have thousands played on Halo 3 and only a couple hundred on Reach. Halo 3 was fun to play so it didn't matter if you weren't gaining exp or ranking up, it was fun no matter what. Reach on the other hand was bland, maps and gameplay, so if I was going to subject myself to that I had better be earning something (even if what I was earning was inconsequential).

"You build on failure. You use it as a stepping stone. Close the door on the past. You don't try to forget the mistakes, but you don't dwell on it. You don't let it have any of your energy, or any of your time, or any of your space." -Johnny Cash

Yes, I would have to agree that custom games are better in Halo 3 than Halo Reach. Why? Mostly because the custom games in Halo Reach are either on terrible maps or on maps that don't work all that well with the gametype.

"Before you insult someone, try walking a mile in their shoes. This way, when you insult them, you are a mile away and have their shoes."

Reach would win, had it not been that half of the cool options don't work.
