When i first heard....hmmm.....i didn't react at all, the best happened when i bought the game, i played it for two years, almost non-stop!
Those were good times....

When I first played it, I thought it was an alright game. I didn't follow the storyline until I played Halo 2, and man, I thought Halo 2 was the best game ever.

Was the little brother happy?

I dunno, hes a fat git, he hogs everything.

I just had one go on that level and went back to playing Mario Party or something :D

"That's about all that can be said for plots, which anyway are just one thing after another, a what and a what and a what.

Now try how and why."

I was still shocked by bungie's sell out to microsoft.

"I don't want to buy new hardware!" XO

Like alot of the oldskool Fans I felt ultimatly betrayed and I think I actually refused to play the game for a couple months, in fact I think I stopped playing marathon and other games by them for a couple years (a decision I would regret). I've since warmed up to the idea, enough to buy a 360 for the upcoming release of Halo 3.

Oh Bungie you old rascal! We've been through so much, I could never stay mad at you.

When I first saw the Covenant I thought they were giant bugs. And when I saw a close-up of the Grunt on AOTCR, I thought, "omg A BOSS."

I also thought Halo was a monster.

Years later, I understand the plot perfectly.

Everyone, I mean when you first saw, for the first time. Not the way you are now...

Help a brother out. Click on the referral link, sign up for a fun game, log in once for the next couple of days, then you never have to think about it again!

And yes. I understand how pathetic that is, but nobody reads these things anyway... right?

When I first saw it being played, I was a Nintendo fanboy so I just wrote it off. A year later, I was invited to a Halo LAN party, and here I am.

Jesus loves you, even if you don't believe it.

Actually, I was having more fun with Metroid Prime at the time Halo was out. I thought prime looked better artistically speaking. I didn't get the xbox until DoAXBV came out. I actually bought the xbox FOR the game.

I played the Silent Cartographer demo for hours at a friends house. So I bought an xbox and Halo..

I saw people playing it and I saw trailers of it. I thought it was bad and did not give it another glance. My friend bought the game and I played it because I was forced, then I liked it. Funny, I thought halo was a bad game before playing it. It looked bad and boring.

That's pretty much my story, down to the last detail.

Did you do it on Legendary? Did you trade in your PS2 for it?

Lol,,no,and no.

I wish i still had my PS2 though...

Take all of my posts seriously.

I didn't really want it when it first came out, I thought it just looked kind of average. So I didn't get it until like a year after its realease. Same with the Xbox, I thought it looked horrible when it first came out but it grew on me.

Me too. But yeah, me and my friend went through The Maw at 3:00 in the morning on Legendary. It was a memorable night.
