For me I was in fourth grade and I just got an Xbox. My friend in class hands me an XBM demo disc that he stole from an XBM in king kullen. I go home pop it into the disc tray. I play through all of the demos on the disc until I came across a demo called Halo. I click on it and instantly I knew that whatever I was playing was Epic, just from the sound of the humming at the menu screen. The demo was the silent cartographer. I swear I played through it like 100 times.

50s in: Slayer, Doubles, Lone Wolves, Objective, Ranked BTB, Swat, Snipers.

Went over to my cousin's house about a week after the xbox launch, and was amazed by Max Payne, and thought that halo was just okay. Bought an xbox the next day with those 2 games, played max payne for about 10 mins, then popped in halo and have been playing ever since.

7th grade, about a year and a half ago. I was looking for a new game, and I came acrossed it. Read the back twice, decided it sounded fun.

The series has kept me occupied ever since.

Four years ago. Went over to a neighbour's house, played it fairly regularly with him. Thought it was just alright, until I found myself breaking into his house to play while he was on vacation.

My friend. I was at his house in November 01, he had just gotten an Xbox with Halo, so I tried the game out and I loved it. A few months later I made enough money to buy my own Xbox and Halo.

I originally received halo for my 21st birthday from my parents back in 2001. Since that day I have been hooked.

In high definition baby!

I don't remember the exact date, but in the early days of the Xbox, I went to my friend's house who has a couple of his friend over also. I then played my first Halo match in multiplayer on the map, Hang 'Em High with Classic Slayer.

Three years ago, "Hey Karl, I got this sweet new game, wanna play?" It was Halo 2, we played that for a while, and I was in love with the beam rifle, but then I found Halo on the ground, we played through the campaign on that, and I was just dumbfounded at how much better CE was in comparison to Halo 2.

It actually means a lot to me. I was at a very good friends house and he had an xbox and i didn't yet. (he got 1 of the 1st ones) He was overly excited and said you have to check this out. We played co-op through the 1st level and I was completely immersed in the game world. As soon as we got to the part where you first get to drive the warthog, the pelican dropped it off and he's like, "i'll drive, you shoot" I couldn't believe it at the time there was finally a game that let you drive and shoot from vehicles. I was hooked ever since. We played a lot of multiplayer together down the road. He got some rare kind of cancer and passed away last year. Every time I play the 1st two levels I think about him. That day changed my life

I like me.

This brings back memories..... I remember reading about it in a MacAddict magazine, and knew, at once, that I had to have that game. Then I learned that most of my friends also were fans of Halo, and we had alot of fun with splitscreen and LANs.

4 years later, I've got an Xbox, 2 copies of Halo 2 (Mac and Xbox), 3 copies of Halo 2 (for a LAN), and a 360.

About 4 years ago, someone had moved into my neighborhood (he's a good friend of mine right now) and he had an xbox and I went over to his house, along with some of my other friends. Of course, that was also my first time playing an xbox. So yes, I really sucked at it. And we had been playing some 2v2 matches and some co-op.

05 or 06, I went to a party and I saw an Xbox, I had an Xbox and played like Batman Begins, although Republic Commando had been my closest experience yet. So I looked at the games and saw they had halo 2, plopped it in there, had to eat, came back and Another kid and me just started playing, total begginers luck. I mean Pwnage, had halo in my life evur since.
