Halo:CE was epic and deserved it.

Halo 2 was epic online and also deserved it.

Halo 3 was the most advertised and hyped game ever, and is the only Halo game what doesn't deserve it.

That is why


I could be wrong but

Halo 3 online >>>>> halo 2 online

Also halo 3 campaign > Halo 2 campaign (I found halo 2 campaign to be a chore to play through)

So why does Halo 3 doesn't deserve AAA acclaim?

Halo 3 just isn't that good. It's no better than resistance 1 for instance.

Ill highly disagree with that statement. 4 player co-op on Halo 3 is a blast.  I could not stand Resistance, and it was the one FPS franchise on PS3 i was really looking forward to.

I just feel that Halo and Halo 2 were both better than Halo 3.

It was way too hyped up, and i expected so much more from it.

I dont know, maybe its just my over-expectations.

Massive MS marketing is your answer.

I think Killzone 2 is definitely funnier and more beautiful online. On 360 I prefer COD.

I think we were all a little disapointed when we did not get to play the massive battle where the chief was being held but by a brute
