get both...halo 3 fanboys say halo 3, cod4 fanboys say cod4, and they are two completely different games. halo 3 is more of a fantasy shooter, where cod4 is pure realistic. halo 3 is more about team strategies or positioning, where cod4 is about control of your weapon and shooting. halo 3 has better non gameplay features, cod4 has a better leveling system. just get both.

[QUOTE="Sporkilicious"]

Call of Duty 4. Multiplayer is great, Single player is a bit short, but it's an online game. Graphics are superb over H3, gameplay by far is better than H3, controls are natural, and attention grabbing. A good mix of GRAW and R6: Vegas. 10/10 and you won't be disappointed.

Halo 3 is teh gay If you enjoy playing with 10 year old boys, pulling the trigger on your assault rifle, meleeing, and repeating, that's the game for you. Who the hell said Halo 3 was original? I'm pretty sure aliens vs. humans have been around since the near beginning of gaming, look at Space Invaders. :P I enjoyed Halo 3 until the release of CoD4. Halo 3 is and always will be the most overrated and generic shooter ever released.

Iron_Re4

first of all who said 10 yr olds play halo 3, and to say that halo 3 isnt original since aliens vs humans have been done before is beign ignorant, hasnt moredern day combat been done before?...and if you didntk now, yes it has been, so according to your logic COD4 isnt original either, i hate these noobs that comment on gamespot without getting their facts down, its seems like your the 10 yr old here.....halo 3 has also touted to have the best conrtols....i really dont even understand why peopole are starting this, its just ripping apart the 360 community for nothing, im sure its some sonyfanboys who have started posting this POS topic over and over again...im glad im a primary nintendo fan, dont have to deal with this crap....

Ok hmm...Mr primary nintendo fan sir, why are you here critiquing a game on a system youre not a primary fan of? if anything you are the noob here.i think you should justshut up and go back to super mario galaxy or zelda or metroid or one of those crazy nintendo creations. You sound like a halo fan boy. Hell you are the type that ruins communities calling everyonea name that you represent.

As to the thread creator i think if you played halo 1 and 2 you will get sick of halo 3. the campaign isnt mindblowing. the only 2 things that is keeping halo 3 mindblowing is the new equipment and the theater system. I have yet to play COD4 but seeing as how out of 30 halo fanatics on my buddy list that all 30 are playing cod4 constantly and that some have sold halo, i think the wise choice would be cod4. Halo is getting old now. Its not like mario or zelda where there is something crazy added on to the game that makes its really worthwhile. As to those saying the matching making in halo is better in cod4, i highly doubt that. Playing lone wolves i see people with a skill of8 or 9 that are majors, commanders,and higher as well as team doubles.

I'm a big fan of the Halo series, and I have to say the Campaign is a joke. My girlfriend and her sister, who don't play video game practically beat it in a day. COD 4 has a much better campaign. The moments in the game are pretty intense, and it makes you feel as if you're in the middle of a huge gun fight. The one thing that Halo has going for it in the campaign is the co-op options. Hands down I think COD has a better single player experience.

However I enjoy the multiplayer experience a lot more than I did on COD 4. I'm not saying that the multiplayer on COD is bad, it's just different. I had a lot of fun playing it, but I just kept wanting to play Halo. Part of this is the fact that I can play Halo online with people on the same box. Something that COD doesn't offer.

Either way you're going to be getting a damn good game. If you have friends that don't have an xbox, or that you just enjoy playing with in the same room, I would have to say you need to get Halo. However if all your friend already have xbox or just don't play video games COD 4 might be a better choices.

Personally I enjoy the Halo gameplay, I always have. I also enjoy getting play the camgain with someone else, and online with 3 other friends. Your best bet would be to go out and rent them before you buy either one. They are both FPS but they will play a lot differently.

I think COD 4 is absolutely incredible, but I think Halo 3 offers a longer lasting appeal. With all the online options, creating your own custom maps, watching replays in the theater and being able to share files, I just think it offers more. Plus there are always so many people playing halo 3 online.

the deaths in halo 3 are so similar, it feels like I am playing cs 1.6 except with aliens and ray guns.COD4 has a such great sound and graphics its eerie. COD4 wins in multiplayer, singleplayer, replaybility, sound, graphics, and funnessHalo3 wins in, actually halo3 just loses.

Call of Duty 4 all the way. both have great multiplayers, with COD4 being slightly better. but COD4 is better in single player by a long shot. not to demean halo 3 or anything, but call of duty 4 is a hell of a lot better.

with COD4 not being a 360 exclusive its easy for playslaves and pc nerds to come here when they haven't even played halo3.

catch my drift.

It depends on what type of games you like.

Personally, I would choose Halo 3.

Both games are very different so I would suggest getting one now and eventually getting another. IMO Halo 3 will last longer because COD4 will probably see a sequel fast. Halo 3's customization is really good and if you can get a lot of cool friends, custom games will last forever. BTW I own both and enjoy COD 4 more recently but I dont know how long that will last while Halo 3 is something I will go back to over and over like I did with Halo 2.

I will not let someone suffer what i did paying 60$ for a Halo 3 when its map get old fast and forge is fun it all equals a package that was fun for a week maybe two at the most and i rentend call of duty 4 and can say that the single player is more fun even without co op and that the multiplayer beats halo 3 by alot

I find myself swapping from COD4 to Halo 3 and back again.... Recently its been COD4 and that beacuse i think Halo can get frustrating online and campain. COD4 i think has a stronger online and breaks even campain wise with halo. I would suggest just getting COD4 at EB and within a week you can just trade it in for halo instead and beleive me it will only take you a day to decide if you like COD or not.

I was in the same boat as you a few days ago. Ultimately my decision was CoD 4. But I will get Halo 3 along with a few others before the end of the year.

I used to be the biggest Halo fan boy in the whole world when it came to shooters then there was this gem called COD4 it feels so great to unlock different weapons and customize them andyour guy rather then just getting new armor that takes a couple of days.

I just cant believe people prefer cod over halo, seems crazy to me. I think the poll is probably flawed because anyone that owns anything but an xbox is going to say cod. It seems that if you dont have a xbox then you are a halo hater. Halo is not the greatest game ever, but it is significantly better than cod all around. Halos single player was waaaaay better, and online is significantly better for halo.

I hear that halo is more of the same, but imo cod 4 is way more of the same. Ooooh modern warfare, so now cod is back??? Same game modern settings. Single player is good, game looks good, but you can knock that game out in five hours on your first try. Usually you can knock a game that quick if you have already beaten the game, but first run through five hours? I just cannot bring myself to recommend this game to anyone. This game isa total rental. Halo online is going to be around for a long long time, can you really say that about COD? If you dont mind a game having essentially no single player campaign then is great, but if you are someone that likes both then cod is a joke. How long does this game take on a second run through, 3 hours? I own both, andI like both, but I kind regret buying cod and not halo. Thats the best way I can put it. Anyways, bioshock is my pick for game of the year.

^^^^are you kidding me.halo 3 has a very lacking multiplayer, but everyone says the forge and replay garbage is next-gen awesomeness. I don't believe any gamers want to spend time uploading vidoes and sharing with friends how you pressed a button at a right time, i think people just wanna have fast-paced fragging action which Halo 3 delivers, but not quite as well as CoD4. CoD4 has the perk system along with superior graphics and 60fps. Halo3's matchmaking is horrendous.

The perk system is not THAT great. Yes it is good but its simple. Now if the whole forge and video play-back is not "next-gen"(I really hate this word) than why should a small character attribute be? If you dont like Forge it must be because you have not played a good custom game using it.

COD 4 - it has a far more sophisticated multiplayer game and its campaign is short but amazingly intense. I'm afraid Halo is just a bit too simplistic in every area. COD 4 is the only game recently where I have sat up slack jawed at the intensity/craziness if what was going on and actually felt an emotional attachment to FPS characters.

CoD 4 by far. It does new new things subtly and it actually has variety while Halo 3 is just same ol' game you've been playing for the last 6 years, and the story is downright atrocious.
