If Halo 3 is as disappointing as Halo 2, who else wants to play "retro" Halo CE when we wait 10 years for a fun, competitive, multi player game via Xbox Live Arcade? It will be like the current Live Street Fighter they have now, boy I can't wait. *knocks on wood*

You can get Halo PC in the meantime.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

Or Download Halo Zero

Its an arcade style game.

I must've missed the disappointing part of Halo 2. Along with the millions of people who play it on LIVE every day. I didn't know that disappointments were put at the top of the list for 2 years straight. Most people would say, "Hey, 5 million people can't all be wrong," but I guess that they all were wrong, and Halo 2 is the worst game ever. It had me fooled all along, I had thought it was a cool, fun game to play; but since you say it sucks, it must be true.

Check it out, it's more than 7 million protagonists against less than one thousand antagonists, and you're not gaining any ground with your flaming rants of heresy and cliff-hanger cliche endings.

to clarify, halo2 being a dissapointment doesn't make it a bad game, not by any means. it's simply called a dissapointment by many because there were some severe expectations placed upon it. it delivered with some, and failed with others.

i personally thought the campaign was far to rushed, and you can tell. the main focus (it seems) for halo2 was xbl and multiplayer. and as you said it has been dominant in that arena until recently. but if you look at the first and second one pound for pound, many would agree that the first was the better game. which is why to this day you still have people begging bungie to make halo xbl compatible.

Wait till after Halo 3 and Halo Wars is released.I remember J.allard at one point wanted Bungie to release it , so we have one of the head honchoes on our side. Is it enough only time will tell.It feels like I'm waiting in line right now for a PS4 or Xbox 720 to come out in 2012.
