Oh man, so many great memories...so little space.

1. Finally beating the game.
2. Beating The Maw on Legendary.
3. Finally beating my 'untouchable' brother.
4. Killing one Grunt with a Tank.
5. Wishing I could play multiplayer as an Elite (now I am one).
6. Finding cool little secrets and glitches.
7. System Link battles.

I can always play it again, but between Halo 2, the announcement of Halo 2.5, Xbox 2, and school, I just never get around to it.

That's too bad man, it sounds like your uncle was a really cool guy. Lol, I can imagine myself, a few years from now, making a thread almost exactly like this, 5 YEARS OF HALO 2!!! LOL!!!!!
Yeah, the first time I played it was a really really good memory. *takes a minute to cry about how beautiful the game was to me*..... Also, remembring first time flying in a banshee after wanting too for sooooo long *cries cries cries*, GOOD TIMES!
Yay! It's the thread of interest for the library!


First time on Banshee..., yeah, I can relate to that: Assault on the Control Room: See the natural bridge? The Control Room building to your left? The one you see an Elite take off in a banshee from, right in front of you? I refused to go any further until I'd beat the living -blam!- out of that Elite and try the Banshee for the first time... ahhh...good times, good times.

Now I know that this is a Halo 2 favourite memory, but I'm going to talk about it anyway.

So me and three other friends are playing single territory on Midship. Pretty much halfway throught the game, I run down to the middle and one of my friends latches a grenade to me. When I die, my body flips upside down, and lands with its head sticking through the ground, so my body is sticking vertically up from the ground by its head and all of its limbs are thrashing around, then it just disappears. We stopped the game and laughed so hard we couldn't breathe, one of us suffocated to death, but that's not the point.

Have fun everybody.

Is anyone there? I was planning on letting someone else posting their best memory, but noone has posted yet. So, I'll start.

Single Player: Finally accomplishing the steps to find the megg and getting the prize of seeing it for myself. Taking the screenshot of it so I could show my friends I was the first of my buddies to find it. See, my friends and I decided to have a race to see who could find it first after the news came out it had been found. Laughing in their faces because I found it first. Good times, good times, huh?

Multiplayer: Blood Gulch. Team Slayer. 50 kill limit. 16 player.

My friends and I decided to have a tournament to see who was the best team. See, whenever we played team games on halo, we always picked the same 8 person teams. We were always playing for fun, never keeping track of the score. Then Matt had an idea to hold the match to see who's team was better at slayer.

Near the end of the game:

It was 49-49, and I was sniping, trying to get the last kill to win the game. Two people from the other team decided to sneak up on me while everyone else on their team hid inside their base. They both had shotguns out. They were using the crouch-slow walk to keep off of my motion tracker. When I wasn't expecting it, they both chucked plasma grenades on my back. I turned around, switched to my shotgun, and shot one while the other one shot me. It turned out that I shot first and got the kill that ended the game. So I was dead, flying through the air boosted by two grenades, but I got the kill. Really, really good memory.





"the megg" ??!?!?!?!?

Hmm... my best Halo memories...

SP: Halo: the time that I shot an elite out of a banshee. I killed the first one as it came at me and shot at the second one like I always do when it’s trying to get away. The banshee and the elite both fall out of the sky but it wasn't like normal, the banshee didn't explode. I walk up to the banshee and its so close to the edge of the waterfall that if I touched it, it would fall. It was teetering back and forth on the edge so in a hurry I try to get in it before it falls, but just as I get to it and see it tell me to push x to fly it, it changes to flip and I throw it off the waterfall never to see or do it again. Needless to say I was more than a little angry about it.

Two Betrayals: toward the very end when there are a bunch of covenant and flood at the end of the canyon where you need to get a banshee to finish off the level. I have my best friend for the job with me (sniper rifle) and I take aim and get ready to blow the brains out of some elite's heads. I shoot at a red elite and the round tears through it, but it keeps going and passes through a jackal, body first, then hits his shield. bounces back in almost the same exact path as it came at it and kills it, then passes through the elite again, kills it too.... I was in such shock at that moment that I didn't even think to move and the bullet gets me in the head and I die.... THREE kills with the one round on Legendary. I don't think I'd ever be able to do any close to that again.

MP: Sidewinder : Multi flag CTF: no time limit: I'm on the teleporter side of the made at the enemy base end looking into their base with a sniper. no one comes up for their sniper so I take out my rocket and fire a shot into the base just to see if it gets anyone. I jump to the ground and head to the base to try and get the flag when I hear that oh so delightful word "KILLTACULAR!". Kills all four team members and we usually have a pretty long ripsaw time so I have time to get into the base, take the flag and get into the warthog to escape before they come back.

I wanted to play this guy on head to head because he was talking trash after a team slayer loss. I told him that he got owned and he challenged me to a h2h match. we played at his choice of map(Lockout) and the game took 9:59. He was beating me 9-6. the whole time he was just sniping. I couldnt let him win so i found out where he was sniping from, gathered 4 frags, and set up a smoke screen for myself so i could go get the sword. i got the sword , crouch walked and assassinated him to make it 9-7. i beat him down until it was 9-9. He was at the sniper side of the map and i was where you get the battle rifle(not at the portal). He shot me once. i got scared because my shield was down so i threw a plasma across the map hoping to distract him so i could go around to go in for the win. the next thing i know its game over and it says i stuck him.he was so pissed off. but then again if he would have stuck me frome across the map i would have been pissed off too. After the match he cussed me out at the stats screen and got offline.
and that is my halo memory off all time!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Well, the first time I played halo was alone in the woods at night. I was hiking and I found a dead man and in his hands was an xbox controler. Besided him was another dead man, he was slouched over the xbox console. There was blood everywhere and it seemed as if a brutal fight had occured. Well, anywho, I took the xbox and the controller and started hiking some more, I eventually found a pack of wolves. I befriended them. And I showed them my newly founded xbox. So, I plugged it in to the nearest tree. But I had no T.V. and no halo!, but soon figured out that halo was in the xbox already. And I noticed that a T.V. had just apeared right in front of me. (Must've been the trees or mother nature or something arather). And I also had 15 other xbox controllers in my backback somehow. And I also had 3 other xbox's in my front pocket. So, my and my wolf friends started playing halo, we played all day and all night. Ahh, good times. We ate pizza, mountain dew, some soda called "Pop the blue monkey top", deer, and more pizza. When the night was over (even though we played all night and day somehow). The wolfs ran deep in to the night and I never saw them again....Until the next night. And the next night, and the next night. And I've been playing halo with them ever since.
P.S. I'm already in trouble for typing this, I'm supposed to be playing halo. BTW, I'm using my T.V. as a monitor and my xbox as my P.C. Well, gotta go me wolf buds are waiting.
Nah, I'm just lieing, I was playing campaign alone at night. And the best memories were when I was in level 3, inside the bottom level of the hanger and sniping jackals above me. Great memories...

first memory of halo:

last year at the beginning of my freshmen year in highschool. we hiked 3 hours to the closest mall and bought a copy of halo. walked back to a friends house and played 4 player split screen on blood gulch with all vehicles up to 50 kills.

second memory:

playing rockets only in chiron TL-32. craziest game ever. actually ended up being a tie and that was the only time i have ever seen a game end in a tie in halo 1 and halo 2.

third memory:

when my friend first got XBC. we heard a couple of kids talkin about how you can play halo online. and us being noobs at the time flipped out on them saying that it's impossible to play halo online. we did research. finally got it workin. and it was non-stop halo that whole summer. walkin 15 minutes to get to my friends house everyday to play halo from 12:00 to 9:00 everyday except for a 2 week period was so godly.

it's safe to say that halo change my life, completely.

One of the best moments was when me and 5 of my friends were playing all rockets on prisoner. It was madness rockets everywhere, you appear you blow up. I was on the top level and got shot with a rocket my body shot up and started to fall, then my friend who was on the second level just fired a rocket as my body flew in front of him and he blew him self up, it was histarical seeing his reaction.

Another great time was in bloodgultch. We were playing hide and go seek and I hid in that little ditch hole in the back wall behind blues base. My friend found where I was with a sniper and decided to be funny and ram into the hole with a warthog. He drove into the hole and flipped on his side and fell through the level floor, but was still alive and just standing there. He pulled out his snipper and zoomed in and figured out he could see blues base while no one could see him, so he found a new hidding spot on accident.

I've always missed how the vechicles could fly into the air and not blow up when ramming into another vehicle or getting shot by a rocket, I could do that for hours.
