for the last few days(weeks, for that matter) Halo seems to stay in 2nd (Live wise). Do you think peolple are lossing interest??Well, one things for sure, not me

actually since cod4 does occasionally pass it, halo overall has more players online. It was only that one week as mjr nelson said. I mean considering it came out two months before COD4 and its still pretty much the most played game, HALO is far far from being dead

sorry guys but its marathon, i doesnt take much to figure that out

It would be mostly a shoot out featuring characters like Master Cheif, Marcus Fenix, a Big Daddy, and the hero from Fable running around with an Obsidian Warhammer getting torn apart by crossfire. It wouldn't work nearly as well as Nintendo's game.RipaX21

not necessarily true, i mean they could def be balanced out. Nintendos charactars also have range attacks in ssb

You are calling halo 3 poor multiplayer? Lets go over the facts instead of your poor opinion...

-Halo3 has more then a hundred thousand more users then call of duty at any one time, check it out. Oh, and its TWO months older

-Yes, the numbers of live players for halo have decline but blockbusters such as Orange Box, COD, Mass Effect and Assassins Creed are all out

-Hit detection problems? Please dont try to say COD is better. Just look at the call of duty headshots and you will understand.

-Weapons that dont function properly? Bungie designed the weapons, they function the way they wanted and i have never had a problem with a halo weapon not working right. I really have no idea what you are talking about with that complaint. Its not like they are making ACOG scopes that are useless, or survivable .50 cal sniper shots or m4s that can shoot past 50 feet accuaratly or even claymores that can kill unless within 3 feet.

-They have ten plus matchmaking options at all times that offer a wide variety of gametypes. Much more then COD4's deathmatch, territories and search and destroy

-You are crying out too gamers about how we are getting ripped off? Bungie never said they developed these maps after halo 3. They actually said they started them late in the development process and just didnt get to finish them. So yes i applaud bungie for trying to actually HELP their online community.

-For the last time microsoft sets the price, NOT BUNGIE.

Call of Duty is a great game but it just does not compare to Halo in terms of online service. Looks at the facts. Halo helped develop the party system, forge, theatre, great stat tracking, strong website support, a variety of gametypes, very easy matchmaking system, a wide variety of weapons and vehicles and thats just mentioning what i can think of off the top of my head.

*Like i said, COD4 great game but Halo3 is just a superior online game with many more options.

Enoy playing an inferior game!!

Yeah, I liked it at first too, but it doesn't have much longevity to it and I quickly got bored of it.Lanezy

i agree, it was great right out of the gate but i got bored after a week or two

this achievement took me forever to get so dont worry im sure many other people are just not stepping up and saying anything. The answer is Tsavo highway in terms of campaign but you do have to try to weaken the chopper as much as possible without really hurting the driver. Best way to do this is right after the first wraith fight, grap a fuel rod cannon and a mine. If you hit them in the wheel, choppers take 1-2 cannon shots and then should be prime for a mine. It took me at least 15 trys over a few sessions so dont get discouraged, you just have to get used to how much damage to deal.

*watch out for your marines in the warthogs who will often kill off a weakend chopper, you might want to stick both warthogs as theyre coming down on the pelican mounts. It will destroy it without killing marines, who will draw away the other choppers

If you want to get realistic most long guns(rifles and such) are not affective within knife range due to there overall length and on top of that the users body armor. If a trained soldier is close enough to get you with the knife he has a great chance of delivering a mortal blow with it compared to trying to land a round in the struggle the would ensue in close range combat.

Then if you want to say 5 .45(which most pistols in cod4 are not) rounds at close range, yeah theyll hurt but then again comes the getting five rounds off, land the five rounds in areas that are not covered in armor but will still do damage and doing all that before i sink my knife into ur neck, chest, stomach, spleen, back.

If you should be complaining about anything its the magical abilitiy to regenerate health after being harmed, not the power of a melee, esp when its with a knife. And please dont throw around calibers, as anyone who owns or is a gun enthusist does not call them 45acp or 5.56x45, rather just .45 and 5.56(or natos). Im sorry but this topic failed and your idea for a knife to have the same effect as a stun grenade or flash bang? What the hell dude
