COD by some margin!
Halo 3 plays like it was made by children for children...



I always look for a woman who has a tattoo. I see a woman with a tattoo, and I’m thinking, okay, here’s a gal who’s capable of making a decision she’ll regret in the future.

I'd say COD as well.. I picked up Halo 3 and was competitive by the third or fourth time I played it took me a week or two to be at the top of the boards on COD...

I am not a big shooter fan (I also don't own 360 which surprised me when I was at the top of the room so quickly)



If perferring the PS3 over the 360 makes me a fanboy.. I guess I am guilty..

List of 360 Games I would like to have: Alan Wake

List of PS3 Games I would like to have: LBP, FFXIII(if it ever comes), R2(maybe)

List of Wii Games I would like to have: Star Wars: The Force Unleashed (It's not an exclusive but it would be awesome)

Too easy to kill in COD. I guess that would be due to realism, but I do not care for it.

Halo 3 by far. Anyone can pick up COD4 and be halfway decent. Just my opinion.

Halo 3 = auto aim game. I haven't played CoD 4 online on a console.

wtf are you all talkin about? COD4 takes more skill, easily. Halo 3 is a pick up and play game. When I first played COD4, it was so drastically different from COD3 that I got owned all the time for a while

If you would've played COD2, you would've been fine.

Halo requires more skill for every reason the OP stated.

That's because you are playing people of your own level. If you're not competitive against level 4s and 5s then you must really suck. In CoD4, It's completely random. You could be at the 10th prestige and you'd still get mixed up with noobs.

This is the real reason most people think Halo 3 is more difficult online.
