So I thought it’d be interesting to know everyone’s opinions on whic Halo games were the best and the worst when it came to the campaign.
Here is my list and a few reasons why:
(1=best 5=worst)
1)Halo CE
2)Halo 3
3)Halo 2
4)Halo ODST
5)Halo Reach
Don’t put words in my mouth…I LOVE every Halo game even Halo Wars…I also love the novels too
this is my opinion on which games were the best wehn it came to story line and how the gameplay matched it…CE was by far the best while I felt Reach was lacking…a lot
I’m speaking generally from a campaign perspective. Halo 2 had my favorite MP maps, but I really liked a lot of changes they made for 3 in terms of the weapons. I liked the Reach weapon set but not a fan of the Armor abilities, and the maps are BOOOOOOOOORING!
Multiplayer:
-Halo 2
-Halo: CE
-Halo 3
-Halo: Reach
-Halo 3: ODST (I put ODST last mainly because it only had Firefight, if I were to look strictly at gameplay, it would’ve been higher in the list.)
Halo 3: ODST
-fantastic story and extremely fun campaign, a little too short though
Halo 3
-getting to finish the fight, need i say more?
Halo: Reach
-fun campaign, storyline was ok, was fun getting to be my own spartan
Halo 2
-story was great, but it was just way too easy to speedrun and skip fights, even on higher difficulties
Multiplayer
Halo: CE
-lan and system link parties with friends = super awesome endless fun
Halo 2
-first Halo game with xbl multiplayer that was fun as hell and provided an amazing multiplayer experience
Halo 3
-amazing multiplayer, forge and more custome game options led to even better custom games for even more fun but mm fell just short of halo 2’s mm games
Halo: Reach
-loadouts, AAs, and new gametypes added a fresh new experience to the multiplayer but it also lead to slow mm gameplay, firefight and custom games is where this halo shines
It’s a tough call, as I consider each of 'em – with the exception of ODST, which is still solid – to be virtually tied with one another. That being said, if I had to rank them, this is probably what my list would look like (and I’m speaking primarily from a Campaign perspective):
LOL, you guys give reach a bad wrap. In my opinion every Halo game is a 10/10 to me. I would even give reach a perfect score ( it is the only game from 2010 I still play) But compared to the other Halo’s, it isn’t as good.
Campaign:
Halo 2
CE
Reach
Halo 3
ODST
Multiplayer:
Halo 2
Halo 3
Reach
CE ( was good, but no matchmaking, less variety in gamemodes)
ODST… no multiplayer lol.
This is just my opinion. I know most of you guys think CE is the best and all that, but Halo 2 was my definitive Halo.
Also Reach is epic because of Forge, Theater, and cool stuff like that.
