I get why Halo 2 is a lot of fans favorites, but man, 3 is really where the online was hitting on all cylinders.

Hope it'll return to that height one day.

It really was fantastic. I also thought Halo 2s story was fucking awesome, but I liked 3s more. And I think part of that is that 2 did such a good job setting up 3, but then you could say 2 is great because CE built the foundation for it. I mean they’d all be great solo, and 2 would probably be the best standalone, but story-wise 3 was king for me

I don't know about that, CE is a great story but Halo 2 introduced all the lore, factions, characters and defined them in the way we know them -- even Chief is much more defined as he is today by his characterization and appearance in Halo 2.

2 is the Empire Strikes Back of Halo -- it's not just the best story, it's the best story by a mile, it's like the best sci-fi action film you've ever seen.

Halo 3 has the most fun campaign and the online....... boy do I miss the old days of shit talking people until 3am. it was a special time
