CoD4 has such fast reflexes, more realistic, better weapon variety, better maps.

In CoD 4 you cant run anywhere or find some overshields or bubble to hide. In halo3 you can escape from an enemy and you die from nowhere.

CoD4 you have to aim, you work in teams, you create a plan to eliminate the other opponents unlike your nine year old friends on halo who QQ when they die cause theyre too young for this game.

CoD4 also is just better. Has a better dev. Snipers in cod4 are so much more pro than halo also. The BR is the most easy weapon to use.

LOL! I have to disagree. CoD 4 is so much run and gun. IN CoD 4, once you see someone, bam bam bam, three shots, hes dead, easy. In Halo, if you shoot someone with is back towards you, you have to get him good, and make sure hes dead, or close, because he WILL have time to turn around.

No, CoD4 doesn't require any skill to win, it requires double tap, deep penetration, and an MP5. Most inblanced game ever created, IMO.

2.25 k/d with 100k kills on cod4, 3.14 k/d with 55k kills on cod5... 1.75 k/d in Social with 30k in Halo 3..Cod is way easier. Ranked Halo is brutal.

5 hours of play and i managed to destroy the competition in COD4. the guns have no recoil, fast movements, the game is based on run n gun. no skill is needed.

I've been playing both Halo 3 and COD4's multiplayer for like over a year now and I can definitely say that COD4 takes nowhere near as much skill as Halo 3.

COD4 has too many weapons and perks that earn you cheap kills. Stuff like the Grenade launcher (far too easy to use yet very powerful) and the Martyrdom perk (no explanation there). Then you have the helicopter that just makes things even more unbalanced.

If you honestly think that COD4 takes more skill then go try out Halo 3's MLG.

COD4 is anything BUT skill if you ask me. Their are just so many times where I am blindly shot in the back or at the sides and giving no chanse to fight. That is why I avoid playing on hardcore servers which are actually more like "noob" servers. At least in Halo 3 the maps are designed so that you will actually be fighting you enemy head on..

Halo 3 i always found noob friendly. Maybe because it takes a lot to go down, but actually, that makes it fun.

Cod4 is a lot more realistic. Halo more arcade-like.

I think both games require skill, just different kinds.

If console players want a real test of multiplayer first person shooter. Play counter-strike source. I still have yet to play a shooter game that not only requires excellent hand-eye coordination but also so much precision. But that is a moot point in this thread...lol...

COD 4 is actually arguably alot easier than Halo 3 in terms of skill and reflexes needed, even though both are horribly casualized. COD 4 is a game where all you need is a SAW and a working right trigger, and you got yourself some kills :lol:

It depends on the playlist. There are playlists for newcomers that are easy to dominate in. Then there are far more competitive playlists where if you're no good, you'll pretty much get destroyed.

In CoD, the guns are more unbalanced, and you die in one shot. Who ever sees the person, wins.

Also, there are more Halo tournaments than CoD ones (Not even sure if there are. I know there weren't a year ago).

I have to agree that cod 4 overall has better maps, halo 3 has a few great ones and other I just don't like. However, you can use vehicles in halo 3. Therefore, i'm just glad to have both.

Hey guess what TC.... I do much better when I play COD4 than when I play Halo3 too..... only I don't come to gaming forums to cry about it.

If anything that shows that HALO 3 takes more skill.

I had a friend who could bounce sniper rounds off the floor and still headshot you. Hes given up playing 360 and is now playing Counter Strike.

Yeah , ACOG scope snipers , insanely accurate weapons , too many health helping perks , and the ability to throw grenades farther than Jamarcus Russell can throw a football takes so much skill. I like CoD 4 more than Halo 3 , but come on dude , seriously?

xxcodmanxx

What a thoughtful argument. I didn't know faster reflexes= more realistic, running nowhere made games fun, having to aim, work in teams, and eliminating opponents wasn't in Halo, and that CoD was "just better".

Wait. You make this thread trying to prove COD was better by saying COD is "just better"? There is nothing to discuss.

So making it tough on newer players with giving little to nothing to compete against people with god perks and weapons. Yeah.. I dont see how thats helping. :/

I believe Halo is the most popular when it comes to MLG(not quite sure if this is true) therefore it requires skills to be that good as opposed to some people ("TC") claiming it requires no skill
