MW2 is currently the most played game on 360, it has been out since November. Halo 3 is in second, but it has been out for 2 and a half years and has been number 1 for a long time. We all know that if there was no Halo 3 there would be no MW2 and that MW2 is newer and has better graphics and whatever. But at the end of the day which game is better as a multiplayer? The realistic modern game or the older sci-fi legend? I think that Halo 3 is better but that is just me.

In number of players, yes. But that just means that a lot of people are playing an overhyped game over another overhyped game.

I have been playing Halo on my other account for about a year now and it takes far more skill than the repetitive CoD series.

mw2 is not realistic, it takes more than 1 bullet to kill you (the game, just for clarity). Oh and mw2 pc>360 but i think halo trumps all in sheer polish and fun factor

Halo 3 is old news now, and CoDMW2 is newer, so I guess now it is the king of the 360. In terms of exclusive titles though, Halo 3 takes it.

meh the multiplayer is based on preference. The gameplay in those two games differ so greatly thats its hard to compare. Halo probably has more features but the gameplay of cod is more enticing to some people such as myself.

If this is true, then Reach will come out and hold the 360 for the next 5 years and then Xbox 3rd Helix will come out featuring whatever thing Activision can pump out now that Infinity Ward is basically all but dead.

It depends on who you ask, there are fanboys for each. They're just 2 different styles of games, neither is better than the other

Halo 3 is more fun than both CoD4 and MW2. However, expect Reach to topple all of the games played when it releases.

Personal opinion. MW:2.

However I really don't think there is a 'King'. Both are equally as good for differing reasons. It's all down to personal taste.

well, the thing that annoys me about halo 3 is that you need ALL the DLC for some match types, so i cant play action sack unless i bought all the DLC, and i cant play matches like Headquarters and Search & Destroy, but all the halo fanboys (who you see in this thread) would disagree
