One of my gripes about Halo 3 is that all the human weapons except for the Rocket Launcher and Spartan Laser just "felt" useless. Even their sound effects sounded like they were vibrators rather than guns. :ick:

And the Brutes were silly. Srs, they went from being awesome primal mindless killers that you really feared in Halo 2 to being basically Elites without energy shields in Halo 3. :doubt:

A lot of other gripes that I can't be bothered to list here basically culminate in me not liking Halo 3 as much as the first two...


Halo 3 was a good game, just not as good as the first...

Dude, vibrators don't sound like that. The Battle Rifle was awesome in H3.

Hrm, maybe, but they sure put up a good fight. Try it on Legendary with Tilt and Thunderstorm turned on.

Plus, melee isn't WTFPWNGE anymore.

Thank God. The Halo 3 melee metagame had zero subtlety.

Well, you're a damn Spartan-II.

Indeed. :pimp:

On the topic of Gun sounds, the Assault Rifle sounded like a woodpecker between the hours of 9am and 5pm, it sounded WEAK. I felt the guns didn't have any "oomph-factor", think COD4 minigun for a well executed example. The Battle-Rifle was okay I guess, but it just didn't feel like a manly weapon of xenocide. And I think the shotgun could've been a *little* louder. :P

I used the shotgun ONCE on Halo 3 Campaign. Then I never used it again. :doubt:

WHAT.

In god's name, why? The Halo 3 shotgun was a tool of ultimate destruction.

Ironically people thought the Halo 1 weapons were the 'best-feeling', but it was apparently because a glitch doubled all the bass on them as compared to real-life guns.

I don't know about Halo 3, but I found the original Halo's shotgun to be utterly indispensable, especially when dealing with the Flood.  I couldn't even imagine going through the whole game without touching it.

The Halo 1 shotgun was great. A little less powerful than the Halo 3 one, but with more ammo.

Double the ammo.  And double the effective range -.-

True enough, but without the nuclear-force power up close.

Yeah, just slightly under that.  it was still a one hit kill on ANYTHING at close range.  Well, anything living, at any rate.

Might've been Halo 2, not sure.

Yeah, the H2 shotgun was pretty awful.
