16. My friend told me about it and one day I was at his house with a couple other buddies and he was playing it and was like "This is Halo, I was telling you about," so I said:
"Okay, show me some of it."
He loads up the first level and after seeing some brown corridors I'm like "eh, show me something with a lot of action."
He's like - OKAY, and loads up Silent Cartographer. After seeing the beach invasion I was like, I gotta try this.
So I sit down and we start going through the game from the start, the first level ends and we step out of the lifepod onto Halo. I'm thinking "This game is awesome." Shortly after that they drop off a warthog, I hop on the chaingun and he is driving. 20 minutes later I put the controller down, called my girlfriend (now my wife) and said "I have to buy an Xbox."

i was 8 and my dad just brought home an xbox for me. the only game he bought was halo and for the next 3 days me, my dad, and brother played night and day challenging each other to 1on1 matches.
since then halo has been my life as sad as that sounds. i hardly get any satisfaction out of any other game.

First time I played I was 11 played it on Legendary mode and got my ass kicked a ton. I had rented it but when the game was due back I was on the The Maws ending driving part and had to re-rent it later on just to beat it

7. I threw a frag @ a wall in Beaver Creek, thought it didn't blow up, walked on it, and died.

I actually used my savings to buy a $300 Xbox JUST to grab Halo: Combat Evolved. Yes I was not "mature" back then but heck, I was 12. I had to grab the best game ever.

About 7 or 8 played for the first time on PC and went 2 years before I figured out there was multiplayer. I probably played through campaign 5 times then I finally discovered how sweet online was. After that I spent tona of money on xbox and other halo crap.

Halo 3

I was 8 when it came out. Don't think I actually knew about it and played it until a couple years later when my older bro bought it

Halo Waypoint Milestone 50 Achieved!

It was November 15th 2001 and a day that will go down in history. It was the day that one of the most epic FPS games ever created would change the genre forever. It was the day that sparked a renaissance in console gaming that would lead to the PC falling off the throne, a concept laughed at as impossible in the years prior.

I was eighteen years old and in my final year of high school (back then we did five years of high school). I took the day off and stood in line when my local EB Games opened up shop. I purchased and Xbox, an additional controller and a couple games, one of which was the highly anticipated Halo CE. While standing in line, I saw a couple nerds playing the groundbreaking game. It was the first time I had seen the release version of the game in the flesh and I still remember the nerds blasting their way through the Pillar of Autumn. My mind was blown! I had been following the game since it was planned as an RTS for the Mac and on the release day I experienced Halo for the first time. I locked myself in my room with food and beverage and I'll never forget it. Greatest gaming day I've ever had!

13 or 14. I was the only girl on my street and I completely sucked at it whenever I played with them. Now my boyfriend has me completely into the whole Red vs. Blue series, bought me Halo CE, and my favorite Halo game is ODST. I'm the Cortana to his Master Chief. And I love it <3

I was at a game xchange, and they had a demo up of the game. It was love at first sight.
