No. I mean, sure the ranked matchmaking is pretty good, but the fact that you can't choose which level you want or set any rules without being forced to only play with friends detracts from the whole experience.used44 said:No one's mentioned Halo 3? That's the pinnacle of online gaming. Everything from the matchmaking to the file-sharing is near-perfect and lots of games will be building on those in the future.

Kiristo said:While I disagree with Zanker's opinion on multiplayer gaming, I don't think that Halo 3 is a classic. The first Halo, maybe, but the 2 sequels don't provide enough of a significant change in gameplay to warrant being better than the first in my opinion. Call of Duty 4 on the other hand, made some great improvements to multiplayer and will be played for awhile because it's a good game and fun, not just because of fanboys, like Counterstrike. I still am iffy as to whether COD4 would be a classic though.
