Why didn't we think of this when Microsoft told us they were going to be shutting down Original XBL servers?

The online multiplayer not only defined H2, but every game to come after it. Every game.

Even the music brings me back to 2009. I miss this game.

I think what you and I miss the most are the days of Halo 3. Nothing like getting online with that game, playing MLG for hours, playing customs all night and calling out with your "team" that never made it anywhere. I did what a lot of people did at that time, and if you didn't then that's just a shame. What a great game to get involved in.

Good lord, this game has the most beautiful DLC that I have ever seen. It holds true to Halo more than any other Halo game made or all the maps on disc for Halo 4. That's just the truth. I wasn't really impressed with the playlist itself because of how many times I play that same map repeatedly, game after game. I think I played the same map about 5- 7 times before deciding I wasn't going to play it anymore.

It's mostly ran by "competitive" kids at the moment and have no knowledge of what the old BR was capable of doing back in the old days. In my opinion, low population is low population. I don't want to take anything from anyone, but there has to be a way to bring more people into that small "competitive scene."

I speak for everyone when I say; If he enemy has full shields, and you're one shot. Let's say you out BR this person. Yes, I will definitely bag your body like you wouldn't believe. I'd probably stay there, continuously bag the corpse until he came back around to try to take me down, only to ninja him. Am I right ladies?

When I first started playing H4, I absolutely loved it. After the game stopped being considered as a 'new game' and saw how people reacted to it, I stopped feeling that way. However, I went back to other Halo titles for some old fun only to realize that it was time to move on. H3 days were over, Reach has come only to pass and of course H4 is here now. I accepted all of the things I didn't like about the game and just started playing to have fun. If you have been playing since H2 or H3, you're probably looking for those old competitive vibes which contributed to the beauty of Halo in every way. Those vibes have been crushed by other games and new features that 343 put into H4. Since I have moved on with my life, I no longer need that competitive aspect. Just enjoy the game and accept that the titles before H4 are old now. If not, H3 will be waiting for you like it always will. Such a beautiful game.

You're just a moderator buddy, I don't think you have the power to be able to say what will and will not be removed in future games. I agree with OP because it can get a little frustrating knowing that people use different weapons to their advantages for particular maps. I'm being sarcastic of course. Azaxx, you're correct in saying that this has been the way for years but I would just like to point out that something could change.

It's funny because most people like myself who didn't do much for valentines day, probably enjoyed this a little too much.

You have 666 posts, I just HAD to like your comment here. The playlist is pretty rad because I simply never play it. I never have been a big vehicle user since the H2 days and even before then, I always felt like I stuck out and was targeted. With that being said, I have yet to play it but I'm sure a lot of people are really enjoying it!

MLG always made the games better for me. I remember in the days of H3 I was literally search games of MLG all day long on summer breaks and rack up ridiculous amounts of EXP. At the time, I was focused on becoming a professional like a lot of other players at the time, which changed after Reach (with yet again MOST players.) As far as MLG goes, if H5 is a great game, I don't see why it wouldn't. I'm not bashing on the latest release because I actually really enjoy it. I also see that H4 just isn't really super competitive material though.

Exactly. I feel like the game does have flaws, but so does everything else. The other games released before H4 were FANTASTIC. I'm just not a fan of the way Reach was played in multiplayer with bloom. Even after they fixed it, it just wasn't the way a game should have felt. Beautiful dark imagery, but it takes a lot more than beautiful graphics to make a great game. As far as H4 goes, I love it. The only thing I want to point out is all the INCREDIBLE maps that are DLC and nobody has them.

For some strange reason, my thread was LOCKED because I wasn't hating on H4 like the rest of people. What's wrong with that picture HALO 4 IS AWESOME.
