I felt my heart racing when they were introducing them, thing is I knew it was the flood. But only becauase I played Halo 2 before Halo 1.... they basically made it perfect when they introduced them.

I played Halo 1 with my Dad when I was like 8. I decided to go back and replay it since the servers were down and when I got to the swamp level I was like.. "Oh sh#@, and I remembered the dead marine thing" So I watch it again and it still freaks me out even though I saw it before.

I agree... They did do it perfectly.

Where's the "oh well, some new enemy" option? I wasn't even worried, it was just one more target, abiet a green one instead of a blue/orange/whatever one. Games and movies don't scare me, I can't convince my brain they're real, and if they're not real they're nothing to be feared.

EDIT: Come to think of it, I did have an "oh crap" moment when the combat forms started pouring through the door. All I had was an AR and I was playing on Heroic, so it took quite a bit to put one down. I got over that quickly once I got the hang of killing them, so the adrenalen (sp?) rush lasted about a minute and a half.

I didn't know what to make of it. The music they played scared me, hence I voted on the latter of the choices haha. But I decided right away that "These suckers ain't gonna take me down with 'em..!!!" I decided to get tough. Human weapons only. Rockets and shotty if my stepbro would let me grap one. Otherwise I took my usual assortment of power. Assault rifle and rockets. And lots of grenades. I whooped their cans into wire.

The introduction to the flood was so tastefully done, when I played it I was scared/confused then I saw the movie and I was just plain scared

Awesome

It scared the crap out of me. I spent half of me time backed into a corner stomping on every infection form.

It was well done even though I did know what was coming next. Is it just me or is Halo easy on Legendary? After going through Halo 2 (with a partner) it was a lot easier.
