I don't get scared. But ditto #42355551, I thought 343GS was damn freaky. A mysterious 3rd party lifeform was brilliant.

Mine was kinda lame. 343 GS or any level for that matter (except Silent Cartographer) does'nt really scare me. But one dark and stormy night I was playing Two Betrayals and That one part where the 2 ex-human flood forms fall from the ceiling. It scared the crap out of me! Yeah, lame.

Halo isn't SCARY it just has alot of Surprises that you don't expect, but I do have to say that 343GS was pretty scary. Even though it was daytime I had the volume real loud and it was the freakiest thing i've done in a while. My friend had already beat HALO, but he was a little freaked out. I almost, wet myself. LOL Anyway I think Bungie did a great job freaking us all out like that. WAY TO GO BUNGIE! Hope Halo2 has even scarier levels!

Yay!

when playing the pillar of autum for the first time i was heading towards the bridge and i went the wrong way. I knew i went the wrong way because the dark corridor dead ended. No it wasnt a wall that dead ended the hallway, it was a big mutha -blamin elite. Id have to say that was really freaky playing for the first time and mind you having no weapon.

In the begginig i thought cortana was a traitor i never bothered to watch the movies.
the first 1 i saw is where cortana finds out about the flood i tought she was going crazy and kill me!

  • 07.03.2004 12:35 AM PDT

Send me out with a bang...

So here I am playing Halo for the first time. I've been at it like crazy Had just turned in on and was going into the jungle. I play forawhile its around midnight. I start going down into the this lab whatever thing. Wasn't giving it alot of thought. The crazy marine guy had me on edge didn't want to kill him in the first place but after a few bullet lowering shots. WHACK. Ok hes down. But whats with the glass cases... and the dead covenant. Then all the blood that I didn't cause. I remember thinking Im having troble keeping track of this place's design. No matter surely I won't be coming back this way... So I get to the lowest part I see the movie of the fallen marines. I say oh hell I know whats coming. I turn and here they come. At first it was tense and then the main door broke down and the big boys started coming. All I had was the assault rifle and something else I can't remember. I ran backwards firing clips into these crazy mofos. They wouldn't fall down! clip after clip. I was like to hell with this and began to run out. They seemed endless every corner there was more and more the sounds never stopped my ammo got lower and lower. I started to get really freaked I kept running back the way I came half lost now. Finally I get to the elevator. Whew haha I'm home free. But... it goes down not up... WTH!!! It's taking me deeper!!!!!
NOOOOO the blood on the walls the sounds... my ammo! Man now thats a game... :)

I'd also like to add how affraid and impressed I was at the same time it was like OMG SO MANY I CAN'T SHOOT THEM ALL! and also omg theres so many on screen... xbox rocks lol. Sorry this was so long... but its halo it needs all the long stories it can have :)

No, but when you are on a battlefield with dozens of covenant and flood, things do get really tense sometimes.

The first time i played 343 GS was with my cousin. we got freaked out and thought the flood could stick onto you with your shields still up. every time i saw white i blasted him with my shotgun or meleed him in the back. then we found out that they can only jump on you if you have no shields. he was so pissed off at me for killing him

:D

I also got piss-scared when my first flood "resurrected" after being mowed down intensively by my AR. Hoooooly damn. This happened up the inclined hallway going up when you backtrack from the initial room you encounter the flood. They almost all simultaneously got up. I was screaming like there was no tomorrow.

mine actually happend quite recently. because i've always lived in an apartment i've never been able to crank my sound system while i'm playing halo. well i finally got my own house and am able to crank my system. so of course the first game i pop in is halo and i decide to go at it. i don't remember the level or anything i just remember at first it was quite than out of no where a plasma rifle comes blaring across my speakers. it actually made me jump up on my feet actually. tell ya what if you don't have a rockin system though you are missing out. it immerses you so much more into the game.

More like surprised rather than scared. I was playing co-op with my mate. It was on Assault against the control room, on that first bridge. On Heroic. Pretty basic stuff took out the sleeping grunts, the first eilte, the jackels and some more grunts. But then my mate got cornered near the end door by a few pesky grunts and that sod of a gold elite with his plamsa sword!!! he was crying for backup but i was dealing with the jackels! by the time i got that end my friend had been sliced! i was on the oppisite side of the door to him near a toppled over gun turret, when i realised the elite had moved. but then i saw a small think slice of blue in the bottem left hand corner of my screen!!! he had doubled back behind me!! Screaming for my life i jumped on the toppled turret over the wall and walked backwards with the elite chasing me. i came to the glass floor sidestepped off and shot the floor so the elite fell, lobbed a plasma grenade onto his head and watched the fireworks.
I hate it when elites sudeenly appear and make you jump!!

when i first ran into the flood my friend and i were playing coop and we had started playing in the evening so we didn't turn the lights on. it was 10:30 very dark and my friend new the flood were coming. he ran away after he skipped the movie about the flood so i didn't know what was going to happen. then bam! the flood are jumpin all over and here i am fightin them alone. when i finished i took a deep breath and then my friend grabbed me from behind. not a fun level.

I was playing very late like at 3a.m. since my cousin and i decided to try to beat halo in one day and when i got to that level(i usually like those kinda jungle levels)but then frowned becuz i had to go into that base..and damn when i saw those things coming out of the doors and destrying them i thought i wasn't playing halo anymore,i thought it was Recident Evil or somethinglol.those stupid flood aren't so hard to kill anyways,i'd rather fight two than fight an elite,again they're not a challenge when u have the right stratergy.

To be honest, when I heard Cortana talking about something buried in the ring I assumed it was some kind of giant robot that would be the end boss. When I saw the Flood, I just thought "These don't look very threatening." Then I played The Library, and the song "Devils, Monsters" still creeps me out.

Last night, I was playing AotCR. I was crossing the first bride and ran outta ammo for my AR, so I picked up a PP. I climbed the stairs to the second floor, saw the giant door open, so I tossed a plasma gredande.

Keep in mind I was on the left and facing towards the left.

A few grunts come running out and I kill em with single PP shots. All of a sudden I hear a really loud roar, and standing directly beside me was the Gold Plasma sword Elite!!!!

Scared the hell outta me! I actually screamed out loud in fear!

In case you want to know what happened, I shot a charged up PP shot at him whil running backwards then switched to my Pistol and put a single bullet though his skull. THAT'll teach the bastard not to scare me again....
