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....
