Anybody can be good at the game. If you pit a four year old against a veteran gamer the 4 year old has a 50% chance of winning. The game takes no skill. That's why I gave up, not because I suck and can't get past level 40 in lone wolves. I play CoD4 now, now that game takes skill. You should see me look at the radar... I can tell where the dots are faster than any other.

adding to the Halo3 takes no skill discussion ftw

was just kidding by the way. It's very hard to be good at Halo3 compared to other console games.

Stop it, just ... stop it. No one cares if you think Halo 3 takes skill or not - so blog it. This goes not only for you, but the 100's of people before you, and probably ones that are going to post this in the next 24 hours.

That's what I'm saying (topic creator), halo 3 is so much harder to be good at than any other console game I've played (and I've played a lot). Dude, you may be better than me at seeing red dots on your radar, but I can press left on the pad after I get an incredible easy 7 kill streak for a chopper so much better than you

It does take a small amount of skill.

I think of myself as good, not great but not terrible either (Unless I just woke up :P)

My brother and I have played games for a good while now, but my brother still sucks at Halo.

The six year old you speak of is Lil Poison, and I last I knew he was playing in MLG tournaments. But did you ever take a second to think that this 6 year old kid could actually be highly skill at the game? What does age have to do with anything? I said it earlier, and I'll say it again,,,, All this started over a Killionaire video... :roll:

I do agree. I love halo and the fact that it is easily mastered could be it's main draw. I like the game and think it is overall a good game but CoD4 is WAY better.

First of all, you need to learn the "Skill" of spelling/grammar. Second of all, what do you consider as Skill?

So freakin what if it doesnt take skill? Playing games isnt made for being arrogant about how

good your are or how bad other people suck. >_> If a game takes skill, but isnt fun then I wont play it. Halo does take alot of skill, it's just boring as crap if your playing matchmaking all day.

I hit level 43 in lone wolves and 40 in team slayer, then I say "ah this is lame". It really doesn't take much skill, Team Doubles takes the most skill of any gametype, and that's only because of strategy. Lone Wolves is just chaos, I hate that. And social is too easy. Heck, taking screenshots is sometimes more fun than the actual gameplay.

I dont really care about what my stats say. But Im going to be honest too, playing Halo 3 a lot doesnt make you good at the game. Ive played with people who have played over a thousand games and they still suck. Besides, why does it matter anyways? My stats are up for everyone to see at Bungie.net so its not like I have something to hide anyways. Im not the best at Halo, but I'll be damned if I say Im the worst. But I tend to laugh at people when they start making post that have nothing to do with the topic, so WTF do my stats and soul calibur have to do with anything?

Stating that any shooter takes no skill is just stupid. You could make a case that the combat dynamics of Call of Duty 4 allow for a greater range of expertise than Halo 3.

I don't know why people come on message boards and make obviously false statements like "[This game] takes no skill." A statement like that is so easy to refute, it's like picking on a retard.

Man, I agree. I changed to CoD4 in true fact. But not for that reason, i changed because i thought halo 3 was a bit of a dumbass because it was so fake, and looked like it was made for 2 year olds, on the other hand, cod4 is much not realistic.

Where do I begin here? I'm assuming you're English as a second language, so I'm not going to give you a hard time for the grammar and unusual word choices. Anyway, let's get started.

Halo 3 is made for two-year-olds? What, with all the cell shading, cute anime characters, and the playful, non-competitive environment? How is Halo 3 meant for children? That doesn't even make sense, on any level. Based on previous posts, half the people on this forum don't even think teenagers should be allowed to play "M" rated games, but you think Halo is for little kids? What kind of sense does that make?

I guess you're really saying that "COD4 is much more realistic," which still makes absolutely no sense. Halo's f***ing science fiction! Of course Call of Duty looks more realistic because it's set in the present day! Jesus Christ, do you dislike Star Wars and The Lord of the Rings too because Blackhawk Down looks more "realistic"?

Anybody can be good at the game. If you pit a four year old against a veteran gamer the 4 year old has a 50% chance of winning. The game takes no skill. That's why I gave up, not because I suck and can't get past level 40 in lone wolves. I play CoD4 now, now that game takes skill. You should see me look at the radar... I can tell where the dots are faster than any other.

adding to the Halo3 takes no skill discussion ftw

was just kidding by the way. It's very hard to be good at Halo3 compared to other console games.

i wouldnt say it takes no skill, because that would be untrue, it may take less skill than other games on any given system including pc. but you have to look at it this way alot of children are good at the game because its one of the only mature rated games that alot of these parents will buy for them, therefor something alot of these kids have in relation. its a game that alot of kids can relate to anyway. its not a bad game just the series kinda went downhill after the first one. though i really liked the ending of 3 very emotional compared to that of other games. that is if you actually took time to read all the halo books too. the story telling in a whole from the haloverse, books and games both, was actually done quite well, but if you have only played the games, or only read the books then you are missing out on half of what happened. but halo wasnt a bad game. just extremely over-hyped. and a word of advice, never underestimate your opponent with your little radar comment, and second, inturn do have confidence in your ability, but dont let it get the best of you, im good at halo and cod4 actually real good at both, but i have had my a** handed to me by children and females on both, everyone and i mean everyone in this thread has. but most dont have the courage to say so. lol.

lol good point though as a musician, it does take skill to play an instrument. i have been playing guitar for over 7 years now. and have been composing and recording for about 3 and a half. which takes skill and talent. and it takes skill to play these games whatever these games maybe, just like it takes skill to draw well, or paint. or write poetry. just because one maynot see the skill in something doesnt always make them right. now in turn i dont believe there is any skill in spawnkilling. i fail to see where their is. but im sure someone out there would love to argue that point. lol

Yes, again, Halo 3 just like mostly all other games takes skill to play and people who would refuse this statement are both ignorent and simply are not good at playing games.
