The Halo 3 Great Journey: One Last Weekend of Halo 3 : gaming FH unite? I'll do it, cause I loved Halo 3.
"Now that Halo 4 is out, a lot of people are remembering the "good old days" of Halo 3 Matchmaking, arguably the highpoint of the series. So people say "Why not just play that"? The answer of course is that Halo 3's dead these days, only about 300 people actually playing at any given time in most playlists. You can't have fun like that. My solution? Lets have a weekend where a bunch of like-minded redditors get back on Halo 3 for one last hurrah, much like back when Halo 2 was about to be shut off any tons of people got on again. Actually, lets not make this JUST reddit. Rally your friends. Promote this on facebook. Get EVERYONE you can involved. Lets have a weekend where Halo 3 is massed by hundreds of people out of nowhere." 343i has no intent of closing the servers. The only reason they closed H2 is cause all Xbox Classic games were being offlined (lol). This is just a movement to get a big group of people to play at once.
I will probably do this, unless I'm out of town visiting colleges, I loved Halo 3, it was my first real "competitive gaming" game experience.
