Yea, Halo 3 sucks and theres 400,000+ People playing it online right now. Guess that many people got suckered into a crappy game?

I don't get why people say this game sucks, the multiplayer ALONE is > 90% of 360 games out...

COD4's Single player capaign really has no purpose, but the game is awesome because of the multiplayer? Understood...

Halo 3's single player is decent at its LEAST, and the multiplayer is awesome... but the game sucks?

I don't really understand Halo 3 haters?... Anyone care to elaborate?

Most games aren't really created for the Single player anymore, I mean people talk about Halo 3 being overrated, look at RSV2.. Seriously...

Just others opinion i personally love Halo 3. Also i love COD4 as well i guess people can't tell the difference between modern shooters and sci-fi shooters since they get compared 24/7. My favorite Sci-fi shooter's Halo 3 as my favorite modern shooter is COD4. People just need to play the games they like and avoid the ones they hate.

the multiplayer is only good because so many play it and that's because of it's name-----halo 3. yes, it is still halo with better visuals but that's about it. not much has changed and ppl were expecting something revolutionary or something close to that, but it isn't, its just a generic shooter. single player was laughable

Halo is a good game, but I just can not stand to even see it anymore, hear it anymore ( the ahhhh-ahhhh) I hate it. Mainly because at my house it seems to be on all the time, my kid loves the forge mode and he has this group of other little kids that play alot to. So I guess you can say that I contribute to all the little kids on there, LOL

Samething happened with R6V:2 people overhyped it and were disappointed. I knew Halo 3 wasn't going to be "revolutionary" i expected the same kinda gameplay with just extra features. I completely loved it because i never expected that much of a change with it.

yah but cmon, u gotta admit u were pretty excited for it to come out and were hoping for a really great game since it was the original xbox's top game. it's not the top on the 360 thats for sure. does'nt matter how many ppl r playing.

To me it was a great game i bought SSBB and that didn't really change that much either. I know it's not the greatest game ever or anything like that. It's still loads of fun with friends and the features that were added are great. I didn't have an Xbox 360 when it released so i wasn't really too excited about it.

whats funny for me is, i never owned an xbox . i was ALWAYS a playstation owner. only reason i got a 360 is because i was impatient to wait for the ps3 and im glad i was impatient lol. anyway, that means i played halo rarely and i thought it was fun when i did but i didn't know much about it. and when halo 3 came out, it was pretty much a new game to me because i never owned the halo 1 or 2. all that aside, halo 3 to me, wasn't impressive at all.

I was VERY disappointed with the campaign. And, honestly, after playing the MP for a couple months it got pretty old fast. Gears and CoD4 MP & Campaign >>> Halo 3's

IMO of course.

I think you have a very good point. Personally, I think Call of Duty's single player was pretty good, but too short. Only problem with me with the singple player was that it was short. Multiplayer is fun as hell too. Halo 3 has a good single player and also a good multiplayer. To be honest I think they are pretty equal, but some people just hate Halo for the fact that it is overrated.

Halo 1 was the peak in terms of single player in my opinion, however Halo 3 multiplayer has been the best yet.

Halo 3's single player could have been better i suppose, it wasnt poor, its just rare for a sequal to grip you with an epic single player experience like many first games in a franchise do, maybe i expected too much from halo 3, but i love the online, which is mainly what i bought Halo 3 for, so who cares.

Halo is AWESOME. The hate on that game is mind boggling. It like Bungie raped their mothers or something. Why it is so vilified so vehemently makes me laugh always. I can never take anyone who bashes Halo seriously.

The reason halo is played a lot because its easy to pick up and play. Its not like Rainbow, CS or Call of Duty 4. Halo is easy to pick up because you can jump and snipe someone. There is no recoil on any of the guns. Thats my reason why a lot of people play. If you understand the concepts game, you understand why people play it.

Why do people honestly think that in sequels the game mechanics have to be revolutionary. Its a true sequel which means you don't change whats not broke. COD4 plays almost exactly like COD2. The only thing added is a running option. The thing with COD4 is that its not a true sequel. Its a different story line set in a different era. Halo 2's online was awesome and entertaining. Why would they change the formula for Halo 3 if Halo 2 was such a huge success.

Nah that's not it. I can never agree with someone who says Halo is the worst FPS ever or even below average. That's just stupid.

Eh, I was recently talking to a guy on Xbox live who made a great analogy of the Halo series to the Matrix trilogy. The first Matrix/Halo was mindblowing reinventing the genres and convincing people they had seen perfection. The hype for the sequels was immense, though they turned out to be extremely underwhelming. Finally the third chapter of the trilogies were released and while it was better than #2 it was still nowhere near what the original had delivered. While these sequels were decent in their own right, perhaps the shock value of the originals had worn off. Or rather, the originals were truly groundbreaking but soon the competition caught up and surpassed while the sequels remained the same, unchanged and below par.

I have a huge problem with Halo 2 and 3's multiplayer, and Halo 2's ending was as Greg Kasavin stated, "It hits you like a truck." Though, I will admit I enjoyed Halo 3's single player a huge amount, it was one of the better campaigns I had played in quite a while. This is for a multitude of reasons that I will not share due to my exaustion. However, I will say that most Halo "haters" are not haters of the franchise, merely disappointed with its direction. Though I am not too great a fan of 2 and 3, Halo: Combat Evolved will forever remain in my heart as one of the best games ever created.

I love the Halo franchise; use to go to MLG events for Halo 2, but for some reason, Halo 3 to me isn't that great. It just doens't have that lasting appeal as does Halo 2 did. I really do dislike Halo 3, but I love it's single player; one of my favorites.

CoD4's single player campaign was fantastic (if a little short)... halos was complete garbage. CoD4 multiplayer is better than halos any day of the week...

Halo was a let down on basically all fronts. I traded it in 3 weeks after release.. what a snooze fest

I'm pretty decent in COD4, and In no way do I think it is harder than Halo 3. COD4 doesn't take skill, you just learn how to play and launch grenades pretty much.

I can see where Tom Clancy games are more tactical, but COD4 is just as much of a run n gun game as Halo 3. Both are fun, but I'll take Halo 3 at the end of the day. Atleast most of the nades don't kill you in Halo

Well this topic really has bashing all over it... I would say it is your opinion towards Halo 3. There are just a lot of people who beg to differ... But sometimes, you should just keep certain areas of what you are explaining to yourself or each other... Thats just my opinion right there.

I used to be obsessed with halo 3, until i played COD4. Halo 3 was fun for about a month untill i got sick of the people that played it, the mostly bad maps, the overly complex leveling and matchmaking system. But thats just my opinion

Like the many who have stated that it is an easy game to pick up play (Sorry for not giving your due credit, too lazy)

And well, im a hard core ex halo player...as im second in my state after a tournement (with the first person who is my good friend can shut me out without trying) and well i only play cuz i have the reputation to well...Play cuz im "good" as in others eyes.

Well to tell the truth, the people on that are really immature and its really "nooby" on their...Hiding...and its just you get jipped a lot...even tho i can out BR almost everyone in the state...Its the undeniably noob actions that get you killed...Shotgun, rockets...Vehicles...etc

thats why im gonna get into it once the MLG game type comes out as i already have a team as the best four people in my small ( but somewhat amusing) state.

Well i gave my two cents...everybody have a great day.

Sincerely, With Care

Its pretty generic and battle are always determined by either who shot first or who has the bigger gun. Also there's not much teamwork going on unless you play with hardcore players or with friends who are playing for more then "fun". Call of Duty is the same thing except that it isn't about who has the bigger gun but who is better at camping. Thats why I'll stick to Team Fortress 2

I was one of Halo's biggest fan when it first debuted. But IMO it feels like Halo has lost it's "X-factor" ever since part one. Halo 3: I'm not impressed by the graphics because there are better looking games. The gameplay feels like more of Halo 2. Shoot, jump, melee, repeat. They could've added some back/side flips, stacked/combined guns to make a new gun. Whatever. It should have also introduced new characters. Maybe even added a few boss fights. A monstrous hunter perhaps.

Bottom line, yes I don't think Halo 3 is great. But no I don't think it's crap.

honestly... 30fps < 60fps

When trying to go to Halo 3 after playing CoD4, it's like a slideshow.

I think its a great game. I got my 360 just to play it and I wasnt disapointed. I just think theres always going to be haters for everything out there. People find it cool to be that one person who doesnt like the new "in" thing. Those kinda people suck imo.
