The whole "Host Ended Game" is a pain in the ass.
Some nights it takes 10 games to get one complete match.

Don't hold your breath. The game has been out for over 3 months now and
this isn't exactly rocket science. They should have never released the
game with about the ability to switch to the next available host in the
first place. At least it's better then the match making garbage in Halo
3.

At least in Halo you get a full game...

What do you mean by that?
Online? I have been in plenty of Halo 3 matches online where people drop
before the round starts. In ranked matches you are screwed if people
leave. Halo 3 and it's online system is complete garbage unless they
changed in the past couple months because I haven't touched it since COD4
was released. From the looks of things I'm not the only one since COD4 is
still number one on XBL.


I really haven't had that problem in Halo 3. In social matches it doesn't
affect you and its been rare that someone has dropped out of a ranked game
and its caused the game to end for me. No where near as much as COD4
anyway. Don't get your knickers in a twist, I do like COD4 as well but
just because it's number 1 doesn't mean that I have to like it more than
Halo.

Come to like of it, I liked GRAW 2 better than COD4 online for the simple
fact that I could play 4 players with other people in my loungeroom
anyway. For me COD4 has been a bit like GOW, everyone loves it and while I
have had fun with it, it just hasn't lasted.

Everyone has their own opinion.

Der.. come to think of it, not come to like of it.


COD4 has generated legions of snobs. "Because don't you understand,
no other game is a good or will ever be as good. And if you like Halo
3, you are a retard."


On and on with shit like this. It's a good game but I despise this
sort of fanboyism.
