cannabis, Halo3`s weaponry is pretty decent i have to admit, they still should introduce a few more.. on ODST the campaign`s pistol recoiled, allowing you too shoot faster after hitting the trigger faster and more consistent. Though im going to like the new Reach`s weapons, and the scoping system, plus you can set up abilities, making this a bit better than before, and making it a changed game. And for all those not-smart glitches, bungie got rid of most of them, they say it has very few glitches.

Halo is a dope game :D

Oh, plus... I hate how spawning is set up on CoD too... I mean really, how you gonna spawn someone right behind me O_o

it`s not really rewarding since before the match begins you get to choose one of those abilities, and i`m pretty sure it`s going to be a specific game type later on...

Hmm... sounds suspiciously like MW2 lol

CoD always had fall damage, the spawn abilities sound suspiciously like deathstreak perks on CoD which incidentally I hate... great, lets reward a player for dying O_o wth, lol.

Impenetrable shield = riot shield introduced in MW2
fast movement = Perks; Marathon and lightweight
Jet pack = I wish, but there`s the elevator glitch... it`s kinda like having a jet pack :P lmao
Invisibility = Scrambler perk, doesn`t make one invisible but scrambles enemy radar

Matchmaking I do have to give it to Halo, I hate CoD`s matchmaker... worst match making system in all FPS I`ve played imho

I wish CoD had vehicles like SOCOM :(

CoD has 2 or 3 rocket launchers that lock onto people, places and things I believe... not sure as I`m not a newbie I don`t need to use rocket/grenade launchers to get a kill.

Always liked Halo`s futuristic weapons :)

I like the fact the name of the area you`re in displays on screen. One can do that in CoD since a lot of building on the maps are numbered and one can always call out the points from Domination; IE. A, B, C ... but this doesn`t really work when one gets put on a newb team as they will have no idea wth you`re on about, lol.

I`ve played both and overall for game play I gotta give it to CoD, now if Infinity Ward patched the dang glitches that completely unbalance the game like infinite care packages and the elevator one I`d be a happy as a clam.

Freakin love it.
I used to play regional tournaments back in Halo 2 and I still follow the MLG Pro Scene in H3, but am not a part of it anymore, real life more interesting.

For Reach...dang good game so far, Can`t wait for the full release.

well hmm... there`s fall damage now.

before you spawn each time your able to choose an ability to have... either an impenetrable shield. fast movement...i think it`s 2x. a jet pack to fly around with...or invisibility...

i`m pretty sure all have time limits of like 20-30 seconds....when you activate the shield you can do nothing else... and the invis. makes you invis and also scrambles both your and your opponents radar with a bunch of hostile dots.

when your in match making it gives you three games/lvls to choose between and you can vote for which one you want...there`s a "none of the above options" which will offer three more choices...

no new vehicles have been released yet and team slayer isn`t an options yet though i think it can be randomly played atm...

there`s pistol sniping, a few new guns...like a plasma grenade launcher that auto locks onto opponents, a needler rifle that`s a bit like a carbine. a laser rifle that shoots a sentinel beam. and a few other guns too...the sniper targeting recticle is bigger than in 3. and different area`s of the board are names in the lower left corner of the game so people can communicate where they`re at on the map easier.

the official beta release date is set for Monday i think. but about 5k people already have it now and are playing it.
