I want you to do something

I want to show you the “reach effect”,which i invented.(just joking)

Now please play Halo 3 for one week,tomorrow the new week will start so you can start tomorrow.Play it 1 week,no reach,no other games.

Then play reach,i’ll bet 100$ on paypal that you wont like reach anymore and play it maybe 1 hour MAX.then if you stop playing halo(every halo except wars maybe) for a while lets say 6 months(other games are allowed) and then start playing reach again it will be OK.

Now this is my story but i could bet 95% of you would act like me,and 95% of you didnt play halo 3 for a while now,thats why you think reach is OK

i hated reach more than anything else,but now i can even play it for some hours(maybe cause of TU and anniversary playlists as well) but normal reach too,i didnt even care about loadouts,the first time i saw there are loadouts in reach,i just wanted to destroy my xbox,but now…i dont even care

Now this ladies and gents is the “reach effect”(joking again,stupid name btw),you should all experience halo 3 again and then you’ll see the difference,its really like i told you

If not then theres something really wrong with you

It’s truly a matter of opinion. If you still like it then nothings “wrong with you.”

not even a week i played Halo 3 for 1 day last week then came back here to Halo Reach and was like WOW this sucks, i still like reach but Halo 3 is way better.

I went to play Halo 3 recorded a kill-tac in Multi-Team on Narrows. I then proceeded to shed tears upon watching my halo 3 vids 3-4 years old. Then I tried to find a match in a ranked playlist for over ten minutes. Honestly I like Halo 3 and i would be playing except for three reason.

Halo Reach has higher pop, sprint and assasinations.

Grats. I had this effect ever since I started playing Halo 3 again.

I did this once.
I started playing halo 3.
Lots of fun. Got bored after about an hour.
Played reach, lots of fun, got bored again, played halo 3 and so on and so on.
Come at me.

Halo Reach just feels smoother IMO.
Halo 3 and Reach where both fantastic games. I couldnt care less If anyone says differently. I LOVE reach and the original trilogy, and Im not afraid to say it.

Halo 3 was a lot of fun, and sometimes I do go back to it. But one of the main reasons why I moved on from H3 to Reach was because I was bored with H3.

Once I get a little nostalgic for H3, I go back and play a little, but the games horrible netcode reminds me of why I prefer playing Reach now.

Not to mention there are a lot of fun mechanics to Reach that just aren’t there in H3.

Each of us will have a seperate and unique experience on each game, it’s how we interpret that experience and apply to our idea’s of fun that determines the outcome.

If you favor Halo 3, cool. It was a very fun game.
If you favor Reach, still cool. It’s a fun game, and it’s gotten a lot better since 343 implemented some title updates.

And the best part is that both are Halo titles made by Bungie, so picking one over the other, or even both isn’t a bad choice!
