Well, Gears of War is still so cool to play on live but dont u think that halo 3 just died too fast and people stop playing that game and moved to games like cod4??? I see my post got very controversial, maybe u misunderstood it, im not bashing halo or saying its bad, or that no one plays it anymore, all that i meant is that idk if thehype about it is dead or not

What makes you think its dead? If you're trying to say that you cant find people to play with online, I never have that problem. As for gears, idk why, but i never liked the online play much on it.

Thats just idiotic.....Halo 3 STILL has 10x more people playing it than COD4......

I own both, and I DO PREFER COD 4......but halo has AT LEAST a couple hundred thousand people playing it at any given time...

people need to stop posting these idiotic threads.........how in the hell has Halo 3 died? How can it possibly die and have all the people "move on" to cod4 IF THERES WAY MORE PEOPLE ON HALO 3!!!

Sorry, im just frustruated!!!!

It's not DEAD to say, I was on last night and there was 404,000 users online haha. But it has lost it's excitement alot, not because its a short-lived game, but because everyone has played it soooooooo much since it came out, got to lv 45 or higher and have really high ranks.The maps arn't the greatest either, alotof them suck and are boring to play on for the 300th time each. Like some maps never get boring (The Pit, Gaurdian, Sandtrap), while others are extremely boring now (Snowbound, Narrows, Valhalla). Once the new maps come out for it andbungie starts to add-on to the gametypes, it will be fun again.

I don't think Halo 3 died, and will ever really die. But the hype that surrounded the game prior to release is definitely long gone. Once the game actually came out the bubble burst, and Halo 3 was just another great shooter. Halo3-The Phenomenon is gone, leaving only Halo3-The Game....is that makes any sense.

i hate all these halo 3 bashing threads, theres to many of em, everyones saying that the game sucks cause it didnt live up to the hype... but overall it was a great game, its got 600k or more on xbl everyday.. and cod4 has like 75-150k or more a day.... Halo 3 is a better game IMO and i think that all these damn bashing threads are insane....

There will always be people paying Halo.

I however, moved on to Call of Duty 4. but have been playing Mass Effect since I beat Assassins Creed.

I never really liked Gears of War.

Honestly Halo 3 was a great game though not ground breaking at all... and sure the 360 came out with better games this year but honestly the most fun game is probably Halo 3... no matter how good COD4 or TOB is or Bioshock. Plus there is no way Halo 3 is dead it is probably the most played xbox live game to date...

i kind of agree in a sense that halo 3 is dead in my opinion. im not sure about the facts but do as many people play h3 now as they did h2? i playhalo 3 a little these days because it wasnt improved that much i guess from h2. I remember like last year when h2 was out i would play it all the time, even for like 10 hrs on summer days. h3 now just doesnt pull me in as much. Not sure if its from the worse levels or something but its not as fun. H2 was so much fun playing with friends u had from ur town and friends from XBL. halo 3 just feels different now, idk ur thoughts?

I would play Halo 2 and the original at one of my friends house and I could say maybe for their time they were better... Halo is still the best in the series than Halo 2 and Halo 3 are kind of tied since they both are about the same. I'd go with Halo 3 since it is a bit better in some aspects. Plus the maps for Halo3 weren't much to brag about I loved the ones in the PC version(I used to play) and on Halo 2 but the ones in Halo 3 are whatever. No way is Halo 3 dead as I said before it's still fun, now if you want to talk about dead online gamessee CS is dead even compared to last year... Hopefully the next fps Halo or whatever is groundbreaking and brings something new to the series or else it's going to get boring.

i think the # of people playing cod4 & halo 3 are only going to grow, once everyone loses their AC and Mass Effect hard-ons they'll want some good MP action, and then they'll turn to said games

Put in the Halo 3 disc, get in a xbox live game lobby, look at how many people are online, then ask yourself "Is Halo 3 Dead???". most likely you when feel idiotic and wonder why you asked such a arrogant question.

halo 3 is definatly not dead. if you look at those white dots on the map on matchmaking lobby, theres a completely white areas all over the world. thats where people are playing halo 3, and how many.

cod4 did not kill halo 3. nor did assasin's creed, guitar hero 3, rock band, or mass effect.

OK, in my opinion Call of duty 4 is a great game. Halo 3 is also a great game. COD4 and Halo3 will both be around for a very long time. Neither of these games are going to die,Gears didnt, I still play all 3 of those games all the time, and so do most of the people on my friends list.

Hmm. I guess the topic should be is Halo 3 dying? I would say yes. If you compare how many people were on in the first week or two of its release to how many people play now, it's a huge difference. But for a game to die, it takes time. They just don't die overnight. Halo 3 probably won't die but the amount of people playing it will slowly decline. I have played all 3 and I have enjoyed them all. It's just that Halo 3 seems repetitive of Halo 2. I do play Halo 3 but not as much as I do 2. There are just too many more options on the 360. If you look at Xbox, what great online games did it have? Not many options in that category. Halo 2 raised the bar in online fps. If you look at the 360, you've got many games that have that. CoD4, Halo 3, Gears of War, etc. In conclusion, Halo 3 isn't dead. There are just more games to choose from than when Halo 2 came out on the Xbox.

about 2/3 of the worlds youths play videogames. a million ppl playing Halo 3 is nothing. its not dead cause its a cockroach and its hard to kill. but a several hundred thousand or a million is a very small number of gamers to be proud of. xbox live is just the only real online service ppl use nowadays so there is no other way to tally players. so instead of going off on the guy who thinks its dead stop defending a onesided defense

It is really boring for me now but once they add more playlists like Team Snipers or Team Hardcore I'll most likely start playing again. For me, Halo 3 didn't really hold my attention like Halo 2 did.

Every timei check there are 400+ thousand people playing halo, so I don't know, maybe it's just the gametype you choose to play.

But even lone wolf has at least 20 thousand people, and thats a very low estimate.

Halo is not dead, need to get that stuck in your head. i know that Gears of War is a bad a** game. but which game has got people to come together and kick each others a**es. whick one has got people together and stay up allnight play the best game ever made in history. think about it and go play some Halo 3.

to me it's dead. its just not fun to play anymore.FlawlessSeasons

I 100% agree with this statement even though i still play it sometimes because i need to get new games but halo 3 being honest without going on a hate speech just doesnt add enough new to a next gen version of a game to make it fun i mean it has great things like forge but forge isnt that good when there is about 4 good maps and two of them are supposed to be remakes from Halo 2. In my opinon that is why i would rather play other games and cant wait until i get Call of duty 4 and Assassins Creed

i dont think that it is dead. after the holidays are over and all the big game companies stop producing games so quickly everyone will have nothing to play and switch back to halo 3. right now everyone is playing CoD4 just give it a couple more months and people will be board with it and switch back to halo.

Well the only reason people play Halo 3 is because its easier to get into. The reason why they didn't add recoil to most of the guns and u can jump and snipe? To me Halo 3= Noob FPS. Its not a fast paced game as Unreal Tournament, Its not Tactical game like Rainbow Six and its certaintly not a good all around shooter like Counter-Strike. You simply can't assume that just because your ranked 50 in Team Slayer and have a mentailty cause your good at Halo that you will be good at all fps. Chances are that you leave Halo 3 that you will find out how a big noob you really are. Oh and Game informer gave COD4 10 while they gave Halo 3 a 9.5. I don't think Halo 3 will never die as long as there are casual gamers.
