Why?

1) It gave you a sence of power holding that gun

2) The AR didnt buck like the SMG

3) The AR had the ability to blind the enemy

4) It had a better melee

5) Larger clip

6) It plain looked better.

Though the SMG sounded pretty damn cool it didn't really feel like I was really killing them with that puny weapon. The SMG is just a weak pistol on steroids.

Yes, the accuracy was a little meh, but so was the SMG, although, it was more that the bullets were just little peas than actually being in accurate.

I liked how the AR left looks of casings on the ground
I hope they don't dissappear like they did in halo 2 for halo 3, well at least right away.

I have been here since 2003, but in a site update my account was deleted.

AR>SMG, simply because AR fires rifle rounds and the SMG fires pistol rounds.
In laman's terms: AR=bigger bullet.

AR is basically dual wielded smgs so...

AR is better because you can throw nades with it and it doesnt target the sun when you try to fire it

GO AR!!!

AR is a weapon for n00bs, just like pistol with a scope. You dont need to have skill to use it.

I like the AR because it was more satisfying to use, the way it sputtered out its rounds.

The SMG was so annoying to fire, the way it sounded, like you were shooting peas or firing a popcorn maker.

N00bs who can't aim? WTF?

Dual-wielding SMGs is more like the n00b combo rather than the PP+BR (come on, that's more strategic), once your opponent's shield is down all you have to do is spit a few more rounds at them.

With the Assault Rifle, once your opponent's shields were down were usually reloading because the last 17 rounds wouldn't do squat.

And keep in mind the Assault Rifle fired 7.62mm rounds of armour-piercing, the SMG popped 5mm standard rounds.

You had to know what you were doing with the Assault Rifle sometimes.

None of the weapons are for noobs, they are all tailored for different strategies. and to say you would prefer one over the other to appear in Halo 3 is Blasphemy. Both of them should be in Halo 3.

AR is 100x better than the SMG even though u can dule weild the SMG it is not as powerfull and has no accuracy at all, and not to mention that the meele is terriable.

The AR was way better it was "more" accurate and had a larger clip, looked better , and had a way better meele.

AR all the way. It looks, feels, and sounds so much better it's no contest. Plus the AR was far more effective of a weapon.

Technichally, a pistol round is wider than a rifle round. A round in a rifle hasmore gunpowder though. Pistol and most smg rounds are 9x19mm and the AR round is 7.62x51mm.
