Whatever as always.

I liked Halo 3 more overall even though 2 had better maps.

Yep. Some people here are blinded by nostalgia to the point of stupidity.

It's funny how most people who go "lolnostalgia" are the ones who didn't start Halo until after 2's prime, of course you kids wouldn't understand.

Halo 2 has a better soundtrack.


The campaign had a better story.

Ignore my gamertag. It's actually Dragonzzilla.

I don't get why The Flood keeps obsessing over how Halo 3 was the BEST Halo game ever by EVERY definition...

Each game had its ups and downs. All of them do.
CE had LAN and Campaign
2 had wonderful maps and a stellar campaign (even with the cuts)
3 was a beast in multiplayer
Odst was great in campaign
Reach customs and forge were amazing
4 has a nice campaign IMO as well
Multi is also pretty good for it.

Yes, because simply addressing the flaws in the game makes me a kid. Because i don't follow the flood cult that blindly praises, even when the game had blaring gameplay issues that were on par with Reach.

The fact that you consider it on par with Reach just invalidates anything you have to say at this point. Good Day sir

because of the nostalgia rule that states the older game is better than the new one, that's the only reason.

I'm sorry, what? I've been with halo since halo 2 first came out and frankly, and the game is the -blam!- holy grail of gaming like you nostalgia-tards think it is. open your eyes and take off the damned rose-coloured glasses.

Halo 3 had really fun multiplayer, great Forge, and easily the best Custom Games of any Halo to date. However, it was not as good as Halo 2 in the campaign department.

What house has a rocket pod, has legs, and has a long narrow barrel that probably shoots something powerful?

Sounds like you're describing the lower half of my body, actually.

Campaign was the only good thing to come out of it. It also started the gametype infection for the rest of the Halos.

Still prefer Halo 3.

No one will ever know which game is truly better because it's impossible to rank opinions and separate honest opinions from nostalgia blinded ones.

So OP, honestly answering your question is damn near impossible.

everything/anything can be compared to sand on a beach

Everyone complaining about hitboxes, glitches, blah blah are the kids who's first Halo online experience was Halo 3. Nothing compares to Halo 2 online from 05-06. All the glitches made the game fun and the best online game ever.

Look through the thread and all the users complaining about the game, and notice they don't even a single game played on it.

Simple, the older the Halo game the better it is and the latest Halo game is always complete garbage. ^ forum logic.

They're the complete same thing accept Halo2 did'nt have Forge or as many maps as H3 did?

All Halo2 had was a BR that could shoot like a DMR and a BR...

Give me some reosons why Halo2 was better. Point me out where i'm wrong.

-Nostalgia
-Fun campaign
-Soundtrack
-Multiplayer maps

I like them both equally but more than Reach and 4. BAM!

I would say nostalgia has something to do with it. I mean I love halo 2 the most, and some of it has to do with nostalgia. The campaign and multi player were amazing. Custom games with the mods help spawn some amazing things for the halo's to come. Zombies popped up along with racetracks. I also met almost all of my friends list on Xbox through it. I played it a lot on my first account and never got bored with it.

The maps are amazing, campaign is my favorite, and even after live has been taken down for it, I still play it to this day. I go through the campaign and play with friends and family in multi player.

Its all opinionated though, but I loved Halo 2 more than the rest. To me it was the best game ever made.

Campaign wise, Halo 2 was better. Multiplayer wise, Halo 3 was better.
