I feel old now. :(

Hahaha, thanks. Now another Resident Mythic joins the party!


I forget what number we're on...so I'm gonna go with 379.

379. the Scorpion's Bullet Sprinkler was effective at stopping enemies in their tracks.

399. That bit of music played in the Pelican on 343 Gulity Spark...wonder if it was a soundbyte or a real band.....heaven forbid if it was Status Quo

(apologies, I hate status quo)

400!!! The crashed Pelican and not knowing what the pilot was talking about, but feeling creeped out.

401. Seeing as this thread seems have changed from things taken for granted to things we loved-

The corridors absolutely covered in blood on 343 Guilty spark. If there was ever a good tension builder on that level, the redecorating in covenant blood and absence of bodies would be it.

402. Marines armor actually looked like armor.

403. Oh yes and their cool little hud thing. Always looked pretty cool to me.

OH damm I just remembered something else I loved to death.

404.The options for setting up multiplayer settings had witty lines. None of this boring respawn time is 15 seconds, you got a description that made you laugh. Always took me ages to put together any new variant, because I couldn't resist reading each description.

405.Heh this is something I honestly never noticed. The start up music during the Bungie logo screen is AWESOME and inspiring. Halo 2 had it too. It was the first thing I thought when I booted up Halo 3 for the first time. The opening music was boring.(Also I think I may have said this one earlier, but it warrants saying again)

Run to win. 1Cor 9:24

406. Awesome story. From beginning to end. Also had a nice backstory.

407. Surprises. "OMG WTF IS THIS!?!!?" at 343 Guilty Spark

408. Mystery. The Forerunners... where are they? Are they gone? How?

409. Closure. You won. You killed all the bad guys, and you are the hero. WIN!

410. No failed attempts at awesomeness. (electric guitar)

Totally agree on both here, I feel Halo: CE marines looked the best out of all 3 versions (4 including Halo Wars)

Yeah, the Bungie logo music is great and gets you pumped then you get the cool, calm, mellow feel of the Halo CE title screen....unintentional genius? or well thought out brilliance?

411. The killing machines that were the Shade turrets

412. Sheer panic on the Pillar of Autumn.....real sense of urgency and "a certain something has well and truly hit the fan" - great writing and drama setting

87. Not having Elites in Multiplayer.



You Haloist. :/

414. Instead of a little infection form jumping into a dead flood's body and causing the dead flood to have a seziure and come back to life, they would play dead and jump at you from behind.

175. That final run on "The Maw" The end of Halo 3 could not live up to the epicness of that, actually timed, run. Without a time limit, the end of Halo 3 was piss easy.

Owners of the Katana: A place for those who have a Katana or over 1000GS in Halo 3.

Somewhere out there... in an alternate reality... Marty decided to stay in the ad jingle business, bringing about an age of amazingly orchestrated Pampers commercials.

415. Beating Guilty Spark.
416. The end where you had to get out of your warthog.
417. The "hopefully no flood will make it into the Chief's longsword" feeling at the end.

The camo-flood in the armoury of the Pillar of Autumn. Just when you think you've secured the mother load of weaponry... BAM! A Flood form assassinates you. Man I'm scared of that room, the reason being is that they come out at a random time; sometimes you make it, sometimes you don't.

419. When you shoot a bunch of needles at someone, the explosion sound was much cooler.

420. The Flood had a good theme song. Devils... Monsters. Halo 3's flood theme sucked.
