Will you play H3 now that REACH is out?

I'm just wondering who in the HWM will play Halo 3 now that REACH is out.

Is it now old and not wanted since there is REACH?

Turtle scheduled a Reunion Night. Personally, I don't see myself going back to Halo 3 often at all. I did enjoy Halo 3, but there were a lot of things that bugged me (lag, latency, etc) that I don't want to relive. Besides, I've gotten used to the Reach default.

for me it's like the opposite of sarges post
i just barely go in halo reach,there are just too many changes that i don't like
and i still enjoy hogging in H3 more than in HR
for the lag/latency problems,i got used to it,i've always had a bad connection :)

I still play Halo3 now and again.

Me, Turtle and apoc were playing Reach and got annoyed with the flaws so went back to Halo3. First game we get standoff and I get turtle Invincible perfection. Second game we match up with Gorillas and continue to destroy.

Fun times.
<3 Halo 3.

I'm not massively anti-Reach or anything, but I may go back to Halo 3 at some time, it's looking fairly likely...

Hoggin' was MUCH better in Halo3. I did go back once, would like to go back again if I find a willing crew.

Yes. I'm bored of Reach and I'm going to go back to playing good games now.

I don't like Reach.

While those playlists may indeed have incredibly low populations, the counters are screwed up. I went back to Halo 3 one night and it said there were 7 million people in Social Slayer. After one game it said there were only 280 thousand. Neither number was even close to accurate. Social Slayer hovered at 30k for a long time after Halo 3's peak, the idea that it would now jump as high as 280k or 7million is absurd, and the idea that it would drop from 7million to 280k over the course of one game is equally preposterous.
