I remember the first time I saw it at college
I got my first taste of Halo at college as well. I was in the cafeteria for the first time ever. As I stood in line counting pocket change I casually glanced at the corner of the room. I was suprised to see a TV in a small, sectioned off area I later determined to be the student lounge. I was even more suprised to see what was on the TV: a FPS. Curious, I made my way to the lounge and found an Xbox with a about seven guys huddled around it. I've never met any of these guys before, so I kept my distance at first. Watching, waiting. Until I worked up the nerve to say," Hey, lemme get in the next game." My demand was first met with some brief, quizzical glances before one of them said," Alright, man." When turn rolled around, I did my best to familiarize myself with the controls of this game called "Halo", and then proceeded to WHOOP THEIR MONKEY ASSES AGAIN AND AGAIN AND AGAIN!!!! I left that lounge three hours later with a new favorite game, seven new friends, and a *blam*load of respect.
