Halo Reach Vs. Halo 3?
Halo Reach has been out for almost a year now. I am here to take a poll and see what other people's opinions are on the two games. I personally like Halo 3 better, every time I play Halo reach for a little bit and switch to 3, the gameplay for 3 always seems more solid to me. What is everyone else's opinions on the two games?

Halo Reach
Pros:
-In my opinion, Reach had a good storyline and had a good campaign
-Good ideas for multiplayer perks such as jetpacks, sprint and invisibility.
-New design makes the game for high def and detailed.
-New game modes such as The Arena and Invasion along with fun game modes the halo 3 never had unless on weekends like Grifball and Living Dead.
-Good new weapons like concussion rifle and the laser majig
-New ranking system along with buying and customizing armor
-Daily and weekly challenges
Cons:
-Maps. Halo reach has some of the worst maps ever made. The only maps I ever play seem to always be made on forge world
-Armor Lock. One of the cheapest perks ever. It is stupid and cheap due to the fact the people can kill after the fact that their health is on the edge of nothing,
-Damage. In Halo 3 killing was MUCH MUCH easier. Ex. In halo 3 you would only have to use up 1/2 to 3/4 of a clip and a beat down in order to kill someone. In halo reach you have to waste about 3/4 to the whole clip and a beat down just to kill someone
-Halo reach is meant for more MLG people. You can't sit down and play all day having fun without getting frustrated
-Although perks are good, they also are copying Call of duty, which pretty much started to ruin reach
-Theatre mode can only be accessed by 1 person
- Campaign on Legendary was WAY too easy, and doesn't take very long to finish
-No vehicles... ANYWHERE
Halo 3
Pros:
- Awesome multiplayer maps like high grounds and the pit
-Great campaign... period
-Vehicles.
-Everything
Cons:
-The veto system was not as good as the one in reach
- Stickie grenades were often hard to aim
-To play with a friend on modes like swat or snipers they needed their own xbox live
-Multiplayer would sometimes glitch out
-People with power weapons were often unbeatable
Overall, I thought Halo Reach is good, but not nearly as good as Halo 3. I found Halo 3 a much more fun experience all around

Halo 3, easy. Stays true to the classic Halo gameplay. Halo games have always been the PERFECT party shooters, having a few friends over and playing Halo 1 or 2 was a blast. Halo Reach tries to be something else. The singleplayer is generally boring and the multiplayer is too un-Halo. In my opinion the games go like this:
1. Halo 2
2. Halo 1
3. Halo 3
4. Halo Reach
5. ODST
Didn't include Halo Wars because really, the only reason it has the name "Halo" in it was to make it sell.

1. I love Halo 3, I would possibly say best game ever made.
2. Halo Reach sucks ***, possibly one of my least favorite games to play.
I remember, back in the good days of Halo 3 and COD4, saying to all of my friends that if Halo ever had sprinting like COD4 then it would totally ruin the gameplay... man, was I right. Adding sprinting, armor lock, jetpacks and those things just added too many variables to the game and just made it too complicated. I think games that have a more simple approach to multiplayer are the best.

They both suck.
They both have the worst multiplayer maps. Of all time. The only redeemable maps in Halo 3 are The Pit and Sandtrap. The rest are terrible.
They also have terrible storylines.
Halo CE and especially Halo 2 had great multiplayer maps and plots.
