Halo 3 is a nastolgia game...the are some that have grown out of it and realize that it's basically graphically improved version of the one the played 9 YEARS AGO, but others can't get past the nastolgia and refuse to admit that the gameplay is outdated and there are simply better shooters out there on the xbox like Rainbow Six series, COD series, GRAW series, Gears Of War series, Battle Field : BC series etc..., those who played Combat Evolved and fell in love will never let go of Halo, no matter how outdated it becomes.
Is it me or has Halo 3 become child's play?
This topic is locked from further discussion.
Is it really that hard for people to accept that others have preferences and actually like Halo and think it's a good shooter? Halo's Hardly outdated. Most of the shooters you listed are only different because they either threw in a cover mechanic or the ability to aim down the sights.
Exactly... but that's just the tip of the ice burg though.:roll:Is it really that hard for people to accept that others have preferences and actually like Halo and think it's a good shooter?

Outdated? Are you serious? Do me a favor and at least put IMO after your sentences b/c you sir are in the minority. You say this game is outdated but the success of the game leaves your opinion moot. I don't care if you don't like Halo or not but at least give respect when its due. The Call of duty series had so many different iterations, it was onlya matter of time b/f they found a formula successful enough to appeal to a mass audience. So if we want to talk about outdated tell me what kept the COD series alive b/f COD 4

I'm no Call Of Duty fanboy, if that's what you're thinking,but I'm also aware of the fact the previous title that Infinity Ward made before Call Of Duty 4 was Call Of Duty 2, which won game of the year. So I'm curious to see what kind of point you were trying to make lol, obviously the masses enjoyed Call Of Duty when it arrived on the 360. By outdated I mean that the control schemes and gameplay (as well as visuals) are last gen, and can be touched upon so it can be in the same league gameplay wise as it's peers(COD, Battelfield, Gears Of War 1 & 2 etc.) I mean you can't even shoot through the sights in any Halo game, of course the younger players don't even know what shooting through the sights is though lol.[QUOTE="DavidRswii"][QUOTE="craigalan23"]Yea but I'm gonna be 17 soon anyways and 16 is different then something like 11 or 12 or evern 13 What makes you think that all 11 or 12 year olds are immature? im 20 and ive met my fair share of immature people of all ages, it all depends on the person. THANK YOU. I am 13, but I consider myself very mature, I don't trash talk (except glitchers and teamkillers) and usually help out my team by telling them where the enemy is, ETC. There are only a few of us unfortunately, and the mature 14 and under population on xbox live is about .01 percent ofthe gamers online.You do know that you need to be 17 to buy M-rated games right(US)? So actually you shouldn't be playing the game either.

How ridiculous. The control scheme is almost exactly the same as most any shooter on the x-box. Hell, it set the standard. It's hardly any different than Call of Duty or Gears. The graphics may not be top of the line but Halo isn't a slouch either. And so what if you can't aim down the sights every gun? The feature doesn't make a shooter any more advanced, it just slightly changes how you play. In alot of shooters that have aiming down the sights, it's practically required in order to shoot accurately. Halo's just cutting out the middle man. It has nothing to do with being outdated.Face it, your claims have little reasoning behind them other than "Halo doesnt feel exactly like my favorite game so it's out dated". You're practically complaining because Halo doesn't conform. As if the market didn't lack variety already.

You mean "doesn't" lol...But yes I would like to aim down the sights for every palm-held gun, because during a firefight you're not gonna shoot your gun from your hip will you ? that would be dumb and suicidal, so I expect that feature in a franchise as successful as Halo. It almost feels like you're blind firing while shooting from distances, unless you scope, and in a real competitive game you don't have time to scope a lens while shooting.

Since when did videogames need to be realistic? You've got Devil May Cry as you avatar for crying out loud. It doesn't enhance the gameplay at all unless they force it to and it's really unnecessary.No offense to anyone, but i havent played any kids in halo 3 in months lol, i been playing teenagers and college students.
in cod4, i have played alot of kids lately, even one is in my clan lol(which is why i dont play with him unless it's clan business, i dont play no michael myers lol)
and i have called halo 3 a kids game before, but now i find myself back playing it, trying to get a 45 again in lone wolves, 43 in team slayer, 30 in MLG, and 28 in team snipers.

That is why they have a visor. It is just as accurate as ADSing, but is simpler. The gun is hooked up to it, and the exact area where the bullet will hit is put up on the visor based on a laser targeting system. It is just not needed to take all that time to lift up the gun to your head, let alone aim. Believe me, in 500 years there will probably be something about the same.

as long as theres a reticle...aimiing down a weapon doesnt mean much to me. you may be used to games that have this feature onevery game. I like how Halo sets itself apart from the other games. Halo gets bashed for not being innovative and it gets bashed for copying other shooters. Bungie just cant win. you my freind are in the minority.

Can you please quote posts of mine with me "bashing" Halo ? all I did was give valid points as to why I don't like it, but it seems to be nowadays that people can't voice their displeasure without a fanboy posting "You're just a hater, this is the all-time best game in da worldz and you're a loser for not sharing the same opinion as me, you're not allowed to dislike a game that I like"If you don't enjoy the random kids yelling or screaming though, just mute the vocals.
I do know what you're talking about, it's just if you like the game don't let people stop you from playing it.
Owned.You do know that you need to be 17 to buy M-rated games right(US)? So actually you shouldn't be playing the game either.

Every online game I've played has had some annoying kids on it.
Here's what I think....Halo 3 has simplistic gameplay which isn't that hard for a small child to grasp. I have a 10 year old brother and he is very good at Halo, yet sucks terribly at other games.. I don't know why it's like that, but probably because of the overly-colorful characters and the whole alien vs. human concept, Halo attracts a lot of children, probably more-so than Call of Duty or Rainbow Six Vegas does. That's just my 2 cents anywaymohfrontline
cod is more simplistic than halo man, kids play halo cause it has more custom options than cod does, as in custom games, and they love forge.
call of duty is pick up and play for them too now, as a matter of fact, one can kill someone on call of duty easier then on halo lol.
i have gotten triple and overkills on guys without a shield against kids on my old account, while on call of duty, one burst from a M16 kills me.
now rainbow six, thats a man game, they dont like it lol.

People like you think mature games are the only good ones, and you are still a child at 16 buddy. I'm practically 20 and I still don't consider myself an adult. I live on my own, I'm in college, but I can't sustain on myself, I depend on my parents.

I'm 19, and pay for my home and go to school w/ out help from my parents. I still don't consider myself grown up. and as far as games go, I'd say half of my favorites are not even m rated.

Yea but I'm gonna be 17 soon anyways and 16 is different then something like 11 or 12 or evern 13How old were you when you got the game though? Obviously you've had it for a long time if you're able to make a judgement about the proportion of children playing online growing over time.
Umm about 5 months i think
halo 3 is not the best game ever i hate it
Exactly, and you know what's even more annoying? The "Your Mom..." jokes. It's like they're one trick ponies when it comes to trash talking!i keep finding more and more kids playing this game and the stuff they say is so annoying dude like honestly I thought this game was rated M I ama teen and 16 years old so M games are what mostly attract me since most T games arent very good

People like you think mature games are the only good ones, and you are still a child at 16 buddy. I'm practically 20 and I still don't consider myself an adult. I live on my own, I'm in college, but I can't sustain on myself, I depend on my parents.

You mean "doesn't" lol...[QUOTE="DranzarTypeF"]
[QUOTE="vashkey"] How ridiculous. The control scheme is almost exactly the same as most any shooter on the x-box. Hell, it set the standard. It's hardly any different than Call of Duty or Gears. The graphics may not be top of the line but Halo isn't a slouch either. And so what if you can't aim down the sights every gun? The feature doesn't make a shooter any more advanced, it just slightly changes how you play. In alot of shooters that have aiming down the sights, it's practically required in order to shoot accurately. Halo's just cutting out the middle man. It has nothing to do with being outdated.
Face it, your claims have little reasoning behind them other than "Halo doesnt feel exactly like my favorite game so it's out dated".

But yes I would like to aim down the sights for every palm-held gun, because during a firefight you're not gonna shoot your gun from your hip will you ? that would be dumb and suicidal, so I expect that feature in a franchise as successful as Halo. It almost feels like you're blind firing while shooting from distances, unless you scope, and in a real competitive game you don't have time to scope a lens while shooting.
then again this isnt real life u moron its a game if they wanted to make it "real" ud die in one shot there would be no aliens and no halo!!!!!
Thank you for quoting my day old post...and did you fail to read in my other posts that I prefer shooters without bright colours and aliens, which is why I dislike Halo ? You sir are a Top Notch Idiot...[QUOTE="monkeyballnotin"]

Yea, but parents are comletely ignorant when purchasing these games for their kids. They see the M rating, think nothing of it. Then they complain when their kid is playing a game that has 'omg teh violence!'. I love it. My aunt has done that with numerous games because 'they really wanted it. They said it was a good game". LOL. So if you have a 12 year old and he picks out a XXX movie you still gonna ignore that? blah...end rant on stupid partents. Those darn kids on Halo 3 have irritated me into that one.You do know that you need to be 17 to buy M-rated games right(US)? So actually you shouldn't be playing the game either.

Kids complaining about kids...ugh I'm sorry I can't take you serious lol.
To be honest I'm 18 and the first time I played Halo 3 is when I was 16 and I found that the game wasn't all that gruesome with mild profanity, so I always thought that it should be rated T for Teen because the majority of the online community for this game is 13-16 years old anyway.
lol........... Kids complaining about kids lol..... i laughed for 2 minutes lolI thought anyone who was 15 or older playing that game on live would be either baked or drunk doing so. I never play Halo 3 on XBL unless i'm with friends and we go on just to make fun of everyone. If you don't like what people are saying go into a party with friends (I'm assuming you have some...) or plug the mic in and don't put it on your head or turn the volume way down.
I just had to add my two cents to this topic because of what happened in a game of Halo 3 just last night.
I'm a 43 year old gamer that doesn't play a whole lot of Halo 3, mostly because I'm pretty lousy at it, but partially because of the annoying players. Now, I'm all for trash-talking amongst friends. Hell, even a random stranger throwing out a sarcastic comment isn't an issue. The gamers, both old and young, that are demeaning, rude, and just plain disrespectful, are the gamers I could do with out though. The muting option on XBL is a beautifully simple tool to use in the instances where someone is annoying the hell outta you.
Anyway, here's what happened last night. I was playing with my two sons (18 and 21), one of their friends (17), and their younger half-brother (12, from a marriage after mt ex-wife and I divorced). "Young, 12 year-old, half-brother" is one of those typical 12 - 13 year old kids that this thread was started in reference to. He won't bandy around racial slurs or do a lot of cursing, but he is very active in gloating over kills, laughing in your face, and just generally being rude to the opposing players. Well, the joke was on him last night when I decided to mute him. He was still being rude to me, but because I couldn't hear him, his rude remarks fell on deaf ears. Of course, my two sons got a kick out of it because they knew I had already muted him. My sons took it a step further and muted him too. Then we had the youngster believing that something was wrong with his mic. He eventually joined a party with some of his younger buddies. He realized that his mic was fine, but he never did figure out that we all muted him. As an added bonus, we didn't have to worry about him for the rest of the night.
So, there is always some way around the annoying chatter that is prevalent on XBL. Mute, disconnect your mic, or play only with friends, and enjoy your time.
Its always been full of kids. Just read gamespot's review of Halo 3, even they mention it.
