Huge Halo fan, loved Halo 2 but not as much.....Halo 3.....ehhhhh just is not doing it anymore. Halo dropped the ball with the MP again....it just gets so boring after so long. COD4 devs have figured it out how to keep players coming back for more and more. New perks...new guns....who cares about a new armor suit....give me something that makes a difference in the game.

If you sparkle gold dust on a turd like Halo 3, it'll eventually lose its shine.....

I sold my copy of Halo 3. Bad ending to a "so-so" single player campaign and the my multiplayer gaming time is much better spent playing Call of Duty 4.

Huge disappointment overall for me.

I liked it and everything, it is by no means a bad game in my opinion, it's just so soaked in the bath of mediocrity. Again, like the others here, I'd much rather play COD4's SP(and MP for that matter) than Halo's.

Only reason I'm keeping Halo 3 is that I have only 470 achievement points on it.

I didnt finish the SP game of Halo 3 yet and may not. Is there going to be a Halo 4 and if so what do you guys think the Halo series has a chance to recover or is it too late?

Great another topic for fanboys to rave on about COD4 being so much better then Halo 3, stop being hypocrits cause you probably all played the crap out of Halo 3 when it was released.

Stop riding the bandwagon people (not that I don't like CoD4 as I play it all the time, but still Halo 3 is solid)

How can you say Halo 4 will have to recover when 3 sold more copies on its first day then any other game in history? Halo 4 will have to be fresh yes and have a new hero to face the game, but to say it has to recover would be undercrediting the franchise.

I don't hate Halo, I just happen to think the reason "halo is...losing it's shine" according to the TC is because of how addictive(at least for me, and apparently many others) the MP for COD4 is.

I've been riding the COD4 bandwagon when I found out Infinity Ward was developing it early last year. Don't make the mistake in assuming that all of us are sheep.

Even when the Halo 3 Beta version was out, I was telling everyone it's Halo 2 HD. Bungie assumed that all these extra multiplayer options would keep players interested.

I can think of at least two dozen other titles I would rather play than Halo 3.

Yeah, I would pretty much have to 100% agree with you.

i still play halo 3... i have liek 507 on achivements. the problem is theres nothing to it. it seems that every update they make it so u get the same thing over and over... lately i've been getting br which is tiring to see. i got the pit about 3 times of team slayer today then we stoped playing it we got narrows which was good.

i don't have call of duty 4 so i can't say which one is better.

i dont think that its a bad game or that it lost its shine... all in all it is a good multiplayer shooter, but right now CoD4 blew it out the water, i dont thik there's going to be a game as good as CoD4 for a couple of months... its a lot more fast paced and you dont need to lay down a whole clip of a gun to merc someone.... and has anyone tried playing CoD4 and then going back to playing halo 3... it looks like your're playing in slow motion... its annoying as hell... if you haven't do it... watch how fun it is... lol

Halo lose its shine? Never

For then it would be a devil:twisted:

Bad joke I know, but I love Halo's MP. Equipment just bugs me a little.
