trailer for Halo 3 has been shown that Peter Moore and Bill Gates on stage during the Microsoft E3 press conference, 2006. Plasma weapons must also be established, particularly plasma rifle, they have ruined my baby in Halo 2 and made it seem like a beast watergun was just good to rent SMG Plasma Rifle combo.Fans Halo fiction will be able to guess on a wide range of possibilities, even from this short piece, and discuss our newly launched Halo 3 Forum.
... What is this? I don't even

Spam bot.

And I would not approve of a Halo 4. (Go play Halo 3)

Or anything related to Kinect. (Go play Wii)

Or Halo Wars. (Go play Starcraft)

Hello guys, im currently looking for good players to recruit for the BLUE team in FCwars.net. I was currently given the leadership of the best BLUE squad called the "Marines". However i currently have only have 3 players (we need like 10).

I also played tons of melee down here in houston, and from my experience find that smashers are typically good at halo and thats why im looking for players from the smash community. I have another smash player with me as well.

How the process of joining goes is like this.

1. You send me a pm so i could play with you to see if you are good enough (dont worry we can play tons of games so i get accurate results)
2. If you pass that you will then post in this thread the information that the BLUE leader asks for.
3. You will then have to go through a boot camp (i know its gay but just go with it... you have to remember there are lots of noobs here, however, if I even accept you that means you are very good.)
4. We play wars on sundays at 6:00pm central.

My gamertag is Shineblind and if you have any more questions please pm me. We are also supposed to have practice on Tuesdays and Thursdays (6pm central as well), however, i know yal have lives and if you cant show up thats okay. Just dont miss the wars please.

If you dont make my squad, you can always join the BLUE army (or REDD) and will be put in another squad. The people there are really nice and are always happy to get new members.

Thanks and sorry for the long read!

Wow a Halo CE remake sounds pretty good. Still, considering how disappointing Reach was for me I'm gonna look into the game more when details come out.

How was Reach disappointing? I personally liked it a lot. BUT not as much as I loved Halo 3.

You guys are expecting people to play Halo during the Superbowl?
it's every sunday, not just this sunday, and the tournaments have been going on for years, it's a very established thing.

There is no tournament this sunday due to the super bowl though.


also, nobody likes the super bowl, we sit around to watch a few guys run into each other and one guy through a ball on a rare occasion = not fun.

basketball is much better

This. Reach is an awesome game but I prefer Halo 3 over it. The MP maps are just better.

Eh, I just didn't like Reach that much. Armor abilities were annoying and they relied too much on forge maps for matchmaking. Some of those forge maps were downright terrible(such as the Cage). Plus barely anyone on my friends is on that plays Halo Reach and playing alone with randoms really isn't that fun. And I enjoyed Halo 3 more. Also, the frag grenades annoyed the crap out of me, my shields would be half gone and I would have full health and 1 frag grenade would be able to kill me.

The cage was legit in my eyes. Armor abilities is what made Reach unique from all the others. Grenades aren't that good.. lol You should kinda rage about the grenade launcher. That **** is hilariously broke and underused (fave weapon right here lmaoooo).

Reach definitely lacks maps though. I will give you that one. All the other Halos had more starting maps.

Nade launcher is broken I've seen what that guy ^ does with them. xD Armor Abilities do make it unique. Though A whole team running armor lock is just dumb.

Most of the armor abilities were ok but armor lock just annoys me. Its not that bad to counter, if someone goes into armor lock only thing to do is to either wait or take cover. Its not really safe to just wait for someone to come back out of armor lock because by then one of their teammates comes along to help him out. Obviously I can just run away when someone goes into armor lock but then that means I ended up wasting my time trying to kill him. And since I would mostly play with randoms no one is there to help me out. Idk I guess I would have enjoyed it more if I had friends that played, but everyone usually moves onto the newest call of duty when that comes out so I usually end up moving on too since its not fun playing alone.

Yeah i find it funny how everytime they armor lock someone helps them, but when I armor lock no one is around. :(

Armor lock :glare:. I love Reach.I think Halo 3 had a more entertaining MP.At first I really disliked some of the things in the Mp but I got use to it.This game's single player beats Halo 3's god awful campaign into a bloody mess

Is it me or does the 5 in "Halo 5" look a lot like the 5 on "5" gum packs? :/
Maybe we'll get a Halo game involving the fusion of the tastiest gum on the planet to the tastiest, longest lasting gum of the universe.

And by that last part, I mean Duct Tape. It's like the force. Has a light and a dark side, and holds the universe together.

Rumor: Defiant Map Pack revealed for Halo: Reach

http://www.joystiq.com/2011/02/09/defiant-map-pack-halo-reach-rumor/

French site Halo Destiny, an unofficial fan community, has posted several images of what is alleged to be an upcoming map pack for Halo: Reach. Reportedly called the "Defiant Map Pack," the site claims the DLC will contain three maps: "Condemned," "Unearthed" and "Highlands" (which echoes Halo 3's High Ground map in name). Condemned reportedly takes place aboard a human frigate, while Unearthed plays host to more open spaces. As for Highlands, its most prominent feature appears to be a giant Covenant cruiser in the process of glassing a planet.
