3 years ago, sitting in my uncles apt. prolly eleven at night. he says to me " sit down right there, pointing to the couch, which faced a 50 something inch plasma tv. He says, hold on to something, i was like ok. He hit the lights, and they went off, and the xbox came on with this game title i had never heard of once before. HALO. My first expierience was being handed the controller, i had a fresh papa johns pizza next to me and nothing but time ahead of me. Once i started playing and still pretty much every time i sit down to play sp, or mp with friends the adrenaline starts flowing and i get goosebumps. I sat in awe of the game for the next two days. Still to this day i remember that moment, it did change my life and my relationship with my uncle, we spent two years playing that game every weekend. Sadly he passed away at thirty and im still in awe of the gameand thats the first time i ever played halo. And i will never forget it.



hey man i just wanted 2 say that i was smiling at the thought of how awsome a relationship like that would be...and that really sucks that he died...i just wanted 2 say that be4 my memory

ive got a few memories....1st the 1st preview i saw (im 14 now so this was awhile ago) on tv...i was like whoa sweet u can drive stuff! (my idea of a great game was star wars knockoffs of other games that werent 2 good themselves)...well i figured id never play that game and almost forgot bout it...next one is my best friends samuel gives me some startling news...he got an xbox! now u have to understand out parents both condemn vid games, and it turns out his uncle had bought it for him w/out his parents permission...what could they do?...so then we see more previews and were like we HAVE to get that game...well actually HE had to get that game...2nd day hed had it he came over and we played through the 2nd level on normal cuz he was stuck at the beginning (i laugh at that now) wow that game was amazing....he only had one controler so we switched bout every 15 minutes...man i had the controller, level 3, 1st battle w/ hunters...we were like HOLY S__T!!!! we couldnt figure out how to beat em so we just pounded away w/ plasma pistols and assault rifles till they died....lol those were great memories...and the time i figured out how to create custom games, i was like the genious...well until i found out it says in the instructions how 2...great memories...i love this game...o ya and probly the best one of all when it came out for pc and i could play through this game id only got glimpses of. B4..wow....

my best memory was me and two friends vs my bro and like 5 of his friends ( 3v6 ) and one friend said that we were'nt playing as a team when it was him so he quit leaving me and my mate to face off 6 people and three of them better than us.

we were defending the flag on sidewinder and seriously...they were like the flood...we had no time to get an special weapons and the only things we used were the AR Pistol and frag grenades, we had a strong possition but they had numbers and it was a total war! massacre and destruction was everywhere but slowly they drove us back into our base, and then sadly one grenade and someone on their team going around the back door they got in....we couldnt defend our selves and were slaughtered everytime we got respawned! it wasnt a victory like most of everyone elses but it is my best memory of halo, it took them just over 45mins to finally win after our so called *Team* mate deserted us and we were left 2v6 against wave after wave of them!

what a memory.....what a battle.....what a game!

Hmmmm..... I'd say when my Uncle and some of his friends that have X-box's came to his house. Me and my father decided togo over his house because my uncle and his friends brag so since i brought my xbox and my tv(my dad did the same) we decided to move to 1 of his freinds for a 8 on 2 because his house is big. We did 4 maps: BG,HEH,BC, and RR(me and my dad won every time). Then my dad switched so it was down to me... i laughed. My dad knew all my tricks. So we went to Hang 'em High i got the camo and they we all hudled together but 1 and i had snuck up behind 1 that wasnt hudled and meleed him wit my needler, then i sniped 2 of them outta the huddle and i picked up the camo again and by then my dad and uncle were the ones walking back to back...ok heres my greatest moment i jump down (they are not moving just searching for me) ---the 3 i killed spawned again and 4 left the huddle they were hiding some where waiting for me to pop up i guess but i was as steathly as i could be--- my camo was going to run out soon but i land on my dads head he didnt know and i melee him dead in the head he dies my uncle starts to shoot randomly i was righ next to him... my camo runs out he turns to me just to get a plasma granade dead in the face he shoots at me i jump land right on the heath then B00M he dies and i win... then after this there was alot of trash talk. and then we continued playin.

this is not my best moment but its funny.

ok i was in team slayer but with onlyb one life per player and 1 kill to win.
so my friends played a trick on me and went 3 against 1. so 2 of them tried to shoot me with rockets at the same time from oposit sides. when they shot i jumped out of the way and they killed eachother.

I'd have to say when it was 2 vs 4 single flag (I was on the 2 team) and my other friend on the other team was getting really mad cause he couldnt do anything to get by us. It was blood gulch warthogs by the way

he left because hes a bad team member.....basically hes one of those people that ask you to protect him cause hes got the flag and so he drives off in a warthog leaving us behind and so when he dies he blames us! because we were'nt there to protect him! now how can we protect him if he drives off with out us!?

plus i swear halo is three yrs old or are you including when it was originally ment for the PC 1st?

Ah.. About a year ago when I was 12 or so. I had an LAN party and after a while maybe three or four games of CTF and Slayer, I had a great idea, and I told everyone about it and we ended up playing 1 vs. 7 game me being the 1, the game lasted about half an hour and I ended up kicking some arse 50 to 49. MAN that was an awesome day, and after I won I gloated and said how I could beat all of them combined. I wish I could've filmed that game.

1st: It was hang'em system link 2v2 ctf they had the flag and only one more point to win i picked up a sniper rifle he was already 5 feet away from his flag BAM! head shot dropped the flag . His partner was right behind him running for it killed him. They kept spawning right be side it but before they could get close i kept wasting them. I killed them about 7 times before i missed ones head and hit his shoulder he got the flag ran about 2 inches away from their flag until i got my last shot off before i had to reload hit he lay dead and his flag was sitting on their i covered my partner until they could return the flag. We had a massive come back and then we won.

2nd: I killed some one and they respawned and i had a rocket but they respawned real far away but i could still see him. So i launched the rocket about head level to the left sniper rifle on top of the base. Knowing he would go after it i launched real early and it was flying all slow while he was running and up into the base not knowing about the rocket he picked up the rifle and stepped out to his right just in time to see the rocket collide with his face.

My best memory of Halo would be when me and my friend beat The Maw for the first time. After the cut scene at the end we went to get snacks, and just when we got back to the tv we saw 343 guilty spark flying by. We looked at each other and at the same time and said "Halo 2."

This was awesome, my friends had this idea to see who could get the best score when it was 15-1, Hang 'em High TS. So, come my turn, they all knew I was the best, so they huddled together in a circle facing outward, trying to find me. I got the rocket launcher, threw a plasma grenade in the middle of them, jumped over their group, and shot a rocket. The grenade and rocket went off at the same time. The explosion killed everyone. Then, right before they spawned, I shot a rocket over to their base(their bunker with the shotgun) and I got a triple kill for that too. How cool is that?

My greatest memory of halo was me and my best bud playing co-op.he had just been killed by an elite and i was waiting for him 2 re-spawn.i turned around and charging down the hallway at me was the first hunter i had ever seen.needless to say i was shocked (okay i admit i nearly messed myself).i gather up all my courage...and i ran for my life.i got to a place where my bud re-spawned then we decided to kick it's twelve foot tall @$$.we were brutally murdered.but it was okay 'cause we had a great laugh. The second best memory was later that day when we were on 343 guilty spark.I went to the other room to get chips and salsa(i had just been fragged).right when i got back the mini-movie(where the flood first appear)was playing.my friend says to me "put the damn salsa down and get your @$$ over here!". we killed everything that came into that room, it was a beautiful thing.

Single Player: My best single player memory of all time would have to be sneaking up on a bridge of sleeping grunts and masacering them then sticking a grenade to the gold Elite at the end of the bridge and watching him run off the bridge in Legendary that is a very rare thing.

MP: Watching my friends little brother laugh at us because he got a tank then I procceded to blow his ass up with a well palced rocket and watching the tank crush the person trying to sneak up on him and then shooting another person with a sniper rifle and getting my first killtacular. I still remember the way they all screamed like little girls.
