Clearly all weapons from Halo 1 and 2 will be made redundant with Halo 3's best weapon:
Master Cheifs fully normal-mapped, 100,000 polygon cock, with a retractable armour foreskin.
All this talk about big macho guns and n00bs reminds me of the sheer gaming hell that was the completely retarded sausage-fest of Halo online.
It makes me want to sign up for XBox Live again, just so I can cancel it.
1. Plasma Pistol - Both In the first one, take down their shields with a charged shot, then pull out the assault rifle and mow 'em down. In the second, dual-wield with either the SMG or the Magnum.
2. SMG - Halo 2 I could cause so much mayhem dual-wielding these babies.
3. Assault Rifle - Halo Especially fun in single-player where you could take out a legion of grunts with one clip.
4. Needler - Both These things will be your best friend in Legendary. I especially liked the melee in the first one.
5. Sniper Rifle - Both I like sniper rifles no matter what game it is, because then I can shoot people from across the entire map with ease.
^good point, its just. the reason i dont really care for the plasma pistol or like it all that much is because the bolt moves waay too slow and are thus, easy to dodge at certain distances. but dual wield smg's ARE pretty awesome i gotta admit, i liked the needler on the first HALO, it was pretty badass but the one on HALO 2 just PLAIN SUCKS. its nothing like the one on the first HALO. at all. and yes, like u said, the assault rifle is great for mowin down a pack of grunts, and not only that, and yea the sniper rifles always good to have. it makes someone who feels like theyre safe cuz of a certain distance. to not feel safe. by any means, whatsoever 😈
one thing that really pisses me off though about HALO 2's weapons is that its not realistic. the SMG's mainly. the SMG's have a 5mm caliber bullet for them which is incredibely weak, especially for a machine pistol(which is what a sub-machine gun is basically). pistols are supposed to(and this is real life, not video games) have a larger caliber, but a smaller casing on the bullet which makes it have a lower velocity but causing it to make a larger wound because of the larger diameter of the bullet. thats pistols- larger caliber, lower velocity-(average: 1000 feet persecond) which makes them more effective at close ranges. now rifles. rifles are supposed to have a smaller caliber but a much larger casing on the bottom of the bullet which gives it incredible velocity-(average: 3000 feet per second) but it makes a smaller hole for the wound, making it more effective at medium to long ranges. thats a rifle. now, lets look at the stats, shall we? last time i checked, like i said before, the SMG's which are like machine pistols and their caliber? a whopping 5mm.! 😆 the average caliber for a SMG in the real world? 9mm or 10mm 😱 there is no way in hell that would work. 5mm?!?! and now, for the assault RIFLE which is supposed to have a smaller caliber. 7.62mm armor piercing. hmm. wow! thats almost 3mm wider than the machine pistol's(SMG) and it still has a velocity thats 3 times greater.! 😱 so if the assault rifle and the SMG's off HALO were made in the real world, the assault rifle would WTFing pwn the shyt out of the SMGs in performace. the SMG's wouldnt be much more effective than an automatic BB gun just to be quite frank and honest. at least against spartan armor like in the game. those tiny little bullets would just fly off that metal on Chief's suit. cuz a BB gun shoots a .17 caliber round which is like 4.5mm at 300 feet per second. so the BB's are just slightly a smaller caliber and 3 times slower. yea. basically an automatic BB gun. pretty pathetic, huh? and it wouldnt make much a difference on the Master Chiefs armor whether its a BB or a 5mm round moving only 3.3 times faster. they would both just bounce off like it was nothing. so. yes. i just had to point that out. 😄

Dude, you really need to get out more...
1. Human Sniper Rifle - if handled with skill, turkeys (close range kills with a sniper rifle) are very effective, human sniper rifle because it has two more shots than the covenant sniper rifle, plus sniping is most fun
2. Battle Rifle - bunt+trigger=dead, n00b combo is also good, plus it performs well at close and medium-long range
3. Sword - i know, it's not all that great, but man is it satisfying
4. Plasma Grenades - same as number 3
5. Rocket Launcher - i may be a rocket whore, but at least i have more kills than you
