which is undeserved. Halo 3 is overrated. its matchmaking system is outdated and inferior to the one that's implemented in, say, Call of Duty 4. once you get past the fact that Halo 3 is a "Halo" game, take a few steps back, look at the entire picture, and compare it to other titles, you realize that it really isn't the brilliant masterpiece that most people take it to be.

I have to disagree. I have alot of fun with halo 3. and isnt fun what makes a great game? Its cool if you dont like it, but just because you dont like it doesnt make it a bad game

Just so you know, CoD 4's Matchmaking is completely messed up. And second, why are you comparing matchmaking lobbies? Does it matter if it looks better?

Stop making threads about CoD 4 and Halo 3. Both are great games in their own way. Some people like Cod 4, and some like Halo 3. Deal with it..

listen im only reporting this news to you guys, thats what i do, as soon as i dig out new info, i report it, sometimes it from known sites, and soemtimes it from unknown, yet reputable sites..

i really dont give a sh*t if you guys care or not that its #1.....and its #1 for a reason, cos its an excellent game, i dont know why you idiotic cod4 fanboys, have to invade every halo post, with your crappy fanboyism, is it that you guys are scared that people will realise that halo 3 is actually an excellent game, and that others will stop "going with the crowd" and actually use their goddamn heads to actaually judge the game by themselves..either way i could care less what anyone thinks of halo 3 being #1 on xbox live..these are just facts and im just reporting them..if you cod4 fanboys dont like it, then dont bother even posting, your just wasintg your time, posting against halo 3 isnt going to hinder the amount of people playing it...get over it...

thats the most idiotic comment ive ever heard..every game requires skill, if halo didnt need any skill, then why wouldnt everyone be at rank 50...and the majority of halo 3 players are between the level 1 - 20...use your damn head to think about stuff before posting and proving to everyone that your an idiot....seriously think abt what i said, and then tell me halo 3 requires no skill...oh also halo 3 requires aiming skill, and light strategical skill, whereas cod4 requires strategicla skill, and light aiming skill....end of discussion

COD4 is a lot easier than halo, tis just that COD4 has a terrible matchmaking system where ppl new to the game will often face of with high level players.

This isnt a surprise. Halo 2 dominated Xbox Live for 2 years even though there were other good games out. The same case will be the same with Halo 3. As long as Bungie supports it people will continue to play.

both halo and cod4 are super popular, and i't sure lots of ppl play both, witch means that this hole up and down , back and forth thing will probably go on for a while. in the end though it doesn't realy matter so much.

Good for halo!

I dont play COD4 or halo anymore LMAO!, i find COD4 really boring and the same **** like halo, all they did was add a twist to the lvls by adding "PRESTIGE MODE" lol same **** like every multiplayer game, it gets boring. I like halo more, not because i am a fanboy, because theres nothing better in xbox live than playing a 16 player custom game with all your buddy from school and work, and actually having fuN!. now THAT is legendary.

Wow the guy who said Halo 3's matchmaking is inferior to CoD4 is an idiot. CoD4's matchmaking does nothing but group random people together thats all. It makes no attempt at putting people of the same skill level together. Halo 3's matchmaking factors in everything. Your level, your kill death ratio, accuracy, amount of headshots. Every little detail goes in as opposed to hey well these guys get to play. Not that Halo 3's is flawless. The game ignores Experience when matchmaking so someone who is level 50 in Team SLayer and has never played Lone Wolves and has thousands of Experience can go in level 1 and start cleaning the floor with everyone else because the biggest factor is your level for that match type. It should have just been based off of an overall level not divided. But at least Halo 3 tries to group a balanced mix of skilled players. Not 4 Level 6 Prestige players mixed in with 2 level 1 prestiges and like a handful of random non prestige low levels. Even the "balanced teams" are hardly ever.

They are all different types of shooters with different gameplay experiences to offer. And I think people lose sight of that in blind fanboy bias.

i agree with everything you say..i think that level in halo 3 should be the same for all game types, or atleast factor in EXP like you said..come to think of it, having the same level in all game types wudnt actually work, so yeh, they shud factor in exp....

i like how all the cod4 fans rejoiced when cod4 overthrew halo 3 for that one week, and they used it in every halo 3 vs cod4 thread, adn basically rubbed it in halo 3 fans' faces...but now when halo 3 reclaims its spot as #1..then all of a sudden they dont care......strange isnt it, when your winning, the comptetion is very much enjoyed, but when your losing its back to the i dont care attitude...o well

I played Halo 3 yesterday for the first time since COD4 came out

Everything seemed so slow and dull, it runs at a snail's pace, rather than the frenetic action of COD4 online. I'll stick to COD4 personally but each to their own
