They mostly come out at night... mostly...
I had heard some of the hype about Halo before the Xbox and Gamecube were released. When release day finally came around, I opted for the gamecube, due to my love of all their first party games. Well, I was sorely disappointed. Mario Sunshine, Mario Kart: Double Dash, Wind Waker, and the Star Fox game were all disappointments to me. They were decent games, but no where near as impressive as their predecessors, and totally lacked the "euphoric" feeling that you get when playing an awesome new game.
Then one day I get an invite from a friend to come to his Halo LAN at his house. I stayed up all night playing Halo. I called in sick for work the next day, because I was so tired from playing Halo all night. Woke up in the afternoon feeling really guilty about not going to work. The guilt lasted for about 5 minutes. Next thing I knew, I was heading to gamexchange to purachase an Xbox and Halo:CE. Campaign blew my mind. Finally, here was the game I had been looking for. Years later and I'm still in awe of that game. Halo2 and 3 are fun games, but no where near as mind blowing as the first.
HALO:CE I LOVE YOU!!!
