I think it would be a cool feature of 343i were to implement a custom game browser where you can make your custom game lobby and anyone browsing could join the open games.
It would be similar to a server browser, just instead of joining servers, you’d join other peoples’ custom games.
isn’t there a huge threat about this?
i agree, it could be a great way to show off forge maps and mini-games, and even have legit online racing.

Not that I have seen recently

not on the front page so it needs to be brought up again
WE can bring back Tower of Power.

It’s also a very social way to make new friends on Xbox Live and have fun besides playing all serious matchmaking.

I always had fun if we had a group of 10+ people playing fun Custom Games like zombies, mazes, etc…
With so many people in voice chat parties, you don’t meet people as readily as you did back in H3 in or H2.
Make it like Forza in which you can choose to make it a private or open to the general public when creating CPL’s.

Of course, you’ve got to have the ability to make it private, so you can play custom games by yourself with friends not with random people.
We’ve been fighting for this for years and it would totally remove all the arguments about how core Halo should be played because it’s the COMMUNITY hosting all the games.

I still wouldn’t want the community to host MM though
Edit
Anyone remember playing Jenga on Halo 3? Those were the days…
And fat kid

That and Fat kid were awesome games. Obviously more fun the more you had.
could be good, but im worried that it would be full of little kids with bad maps and lame gametypes.

And therein lies the problem. It would be so hard to tell what is worth joining. Look at Reach, where every map is tagged “gai” “best map evear” “this map sux” “I like turtles” etc.
But yeah, cutom games, often that don’t have anything to do with proper gametypes such as sacrifice on lava pit, are a ton of fun.

if you join a crappy game then just leave, plus you should be able to tell if something is worth playing based on how many people are actually in the game. perhaps they could develop a sort of rating system so people can see the host’s reputation, similar to on ebay lol
