remove yourself from the online aspect and your left with a mediocre game. People on the board dont hate it, we just think that it didnt live up to the hype in a big way.
It's just a prettier version of Halo 2. It's overrated and minus multiplayer is a mediocre shooter. What I mean to say is it's nothing really special or revolutionary.

thats the dumbest thing ive ever heard, what happens if u did that with gears and cod 4? same thing...
The reason "everyone" hates it is all the hype that was put into the game before and after release, especially since we have the "keep it clean" promo and the Mythic Map Pack coming upShermans_HUD
yeh advertising a game is a stupid idea, and who do they think they are trying to keep it new and exciting, some nerve
it was fun for a while,but the online in my opinion was terrible,only because a bunch of little kids screaming everywhere and awhole bunch of racists and it was full of bs. But after you play it too much,it gets awfully boring.RandomWarrior69
I don't think anyone took the Gameplay experience my change the rating thing seriously till they played on live.
I have loved Halo since Halo1. Bought Halo 1 before the Xbox was even released..I love the coop and splitscreen deathmatch. What I dont like about Halo games is one second you empty 3 clips into someone only to be killed by the butt of their gun.Same thing when using the sword. Its off balance.
You know its off balance when everyones favorite wepeon is the pistol over a machine gun. Couple shots from the pistol and you are dead...3 clips from a machine gun..nothing..

pistol...really? yes halo 1's pistol was unbalanced, but they have definately fixed it since then
Amazing graphics... :lol:
Good gameplay... :lol:
Good story... :lol:
Awesome online... :lol:
The games pathetic.
The graphics couldve been done on the Xbox, aside from the water.
Gameplay is boring and redundant. Shoot, jump, grenade- BORING
Story is pathetic. Too predictable and there's nothing to keep you on the edge of your seat as in Halo: CE
Online is okay, but its filled with lag on BTB and the betrayel booting system sucks.

We're not talking about COD4 here.
Allow me sum up the posts and then proceed to destroy them:
1. Halo 3 would suck if it didn't have online multiplayer.... duh! Any game would suck if they based it on online multiplayer and then took it away. WoW would suck without online multiplayer, just like Mass Effect would suck without a storyline.
2. It was overhyped due to advertisments... if you were a game creator and you had made this game and wanted to get the general public to know about and then buy your game what would you do. Advertise, the more the better. Advertisements weren't about overhyping the game to provide a disapointment to the public (Bungie's not quite that sinister) it was mearly the end of a great series and Bungie wanted to go out with a BANG!

lol, thank you! However if you see me defending CoD4 in a differant forum it's not that I'm a hypocrit it's that I like to defend something that has no hope of winning, regardless of how much it does or does not suck

I don't think "everyone here hates Halo 3".
I think SOME people here feel INDIFFERENT about Halo 3. It was an above average FPS, nothing more.
I wouldn't say amazing graphics when you have games like Bioshock and CoD4 out there. But, I am a fan of the multiplayer. It didn't live ot it's hype, but hype can also come from the people as well as the company. I think everyone was just expecting too much of it. For this game, I go with this motto:
"Set your standards low and you will never be disappointed."
~Meftah~
To be honest the graphics realy arent that great, and all you get is a slightly upgreaded version of halo 2.MrClean44
Most hardcore Halo 2 fans would disagree. Halo 2 had better gameplay, IMO. Halo 3 is still good but it lacks a few things that made Halo:CE and Halo 2 so special.

wow your so wrong COD4 had a fantastic SP thats one of the reasons it got great scores and gears of war had a fun SP so onto halo 3 yep it was mediocre.

CoD4's and Halo 3's SP were bad. Both were too predictable, and over way too soon.[QUOTE="chaoscougar1"][QUOTE="wile315"][QUOTE="hot_juicy_steak"]i mean its a good game you gotta admit. amazing graphics, good gameplay, story is good, online is awesome. i dont see whats there to hate here. so why do ppl exactly hate this game? i love it, and still play it TX360

its the principle, he is talking about removing a key aspect in a game, one that if u removed from any game would drop it down in value. ure telling me that u would have been happy to play the gears and CoD 4 campaign as much as u have played online?
i bring up this analogy every time i hear this type of statement brought up and it's because it fits in perfectly...
people rooted for the giants just because they didnt want to see the undefeated, 3 time super bowl winners, win again. they rooted for the opposing team just to put down the best. same is the case with halo 3. people wanted to hate it because it was the best and most popular and so they looked for a game to jump ships to and there was cod4.
and of course people expected too much from the game, but that was undoubtedly their own faults. i dont hate the game. im just entirely worn out from the halo experience. i played halo 1 and halo 2 so extremely much that i dont think i played halo 3 for more than a month, and i dont care to go back and play it either.
and for the people that say halo 3's single player is just ordinary well they are full of it. halo managed to have balanced and varied weapons, intelligent enemy a.i., an interesting story and overal very solid gameplay...that to me makes a pretty good game. these people are the same people who would say call of duty 4's single player is the second coming even though its just as generic if not more generic than halo 3, didnt have as good of a story, didnt come close in enemy ai intelligence and was a heck of a lot shorter, but hey fanboys will be fanboys.
For the ammount of time put into developing the game it just looks like Halo 2 with fancier graphics. Same stuff.andyrae11
why change a masterpiece?
that's not even something you could compare it to, tf2 is an online only, but halo still has single player. mind you the single player can be easy and repetetive, because you run one way kill some people, then go another way, kill more people. BUT! isn't that most shooters?I love the "take away the multiplayer and it is a mediocre shooter"
Take away Team Fortress 2's multiplayer and it isn't even a game, let alone a shooter.
