Well, the campaign is so-so, and the on-line play has gotten very top-heavy. If that's ok with you then it's a good game.
It was still a pretty good investment for me, but without on-line play it's not worthwhile. -------------

79$ where are you getting it? But I would get it as it is always fun online and unlike cod4 doesn't have as many issues with lagging etc. But cod4 campaign is good and when you get lucky getting a god map, connection, etc. it can beat halo 3. So its a hard decision thats why I just got both.

| You might as well get it and if it is a problem for you, bring to it to place where you can trade it in for some cash or store credit. |

Not in my home. I rarely seem to be matched up with people around my skill level. I quit playing for awhile because I couldn't get a decent game in. It's pretty hit or miss for me. The evenly matched game is a rare treat. -------------

I always have the problem where I match with people below my skill level, so I can never level up. But the Modded trueskill that Bungie used for the Halo 3 ranking system should be used in every game. It works well. -------------

After I got COD4 I quit playing Halo3, it just...isn't on the same level to me... COD4 is "Crack" it made my brother go out and buy a 360.. COD4 Orange Box Halo3 Assassins Creed those are pretty much "Must have" titles in my opinion, the only one I would think about is AC, its just not for everyone, but I love it. |

| i never liked halo, i dont see why ppl think its good, graphics are mediocre, the physics suck, the levels are simple and unoriginal, and anyone can pick up a controller and be decent at it. |

That last part sums up why most people like it. Most people are not sereious gamers, so every now and then we like to play a game that you don't really have to think to much about in order to last five minutes. ------------- Join the XP Re-Revolution!

| I'm also considering halo 3. But man I just love CoD4. I've already beaten it and love going back through the levels again. I think I might try all the difficulties. As of now I'm going through the game just using a pistol. It's fun. |

A lot of people say that you can be real good just by playing your first time, but those who say it are ignorant.

Because you were playing those around your level. Had you played Cedric or I, you would have probably cried. |

Yahh I'm the average Halo player with not to much skill and people can pick it up pretty easily but it takes awhile to even get decent. Hysteria I'll hit you up for a game sometime yes I do suck but Halo is fun anyways. Well that is when cod4 starts lagging and until I get my Rock Band guitar fixed.

So I think what you said has no bearing on me saying I was good when I started playing. ------------- Que pasa?

Except it does. You said you were good. I said you think you were good because you were playing people who weren't good. If you had been playing someone good (i.e. Cedric, or I), you would have realized that you were in fact, not good. I am really not trying to be a jerk or anything, I am just trying to prove a point. |

| The people that play Halo on tv on shows like G4 are good. They are able to see what is going on all over the screen and can take extremely quick shots from across the map and kill someone. |

Ya I am a not too bad Halo player and I always whipped my cousins at it, but when I went on xbox live I found out I was about average. When you play with people who are worse than you it's easy to think you are good. My matchmaking sucks most of the time on live so I play people better than me and people at about the same level as me. I am usually between 3rd and 7th. -------------
