I was 17 when Halo CE came out. I played it through nearly 100 times on legendary difficulty, I know because each time I would start a new character with roman numeral designation (to a maximum of X per letter). My gamertag ToxicJesterVII for xbox live was created shortly before H2s release. I tried to do JesterVII(J being the 10th letter of the alphabet) Fortunately I had a job that required me to sit on my butt 12 hours a day and monitor an alarm system, I literally got paid to play xbox all night long for five years-thank you USAF.

A buddy and I played the campaign through so often we started doing things to mix it up. We started with resetting the game from the beginning if we died, then we started limiting weapons. Eventually we played the campaign through on legendary only allowing ourselves to use melee attacks and plasma pistols, restarting from the very beginning of the game if either one of us died. It took a while, but we did end up succeeding.

See you on the battlefield.

I was 12 when I first got it, along with my Xbox. It came with a demo disc of all the cool stuff out for the Xbox. Guess what one of those demos was.

7...the flood in CE were so damned scary! I was with a friend and we played through Halo 1 and 2 back to back overnight. It was INTENSE!

i was about 8 my older brother had talked my parents into bying us an xbox and we got halo as 1 of the two games that came with it. (best luck ever) we imediatley jumped into halo because the other game was a crappy racing game. i had to go to bed but i made my way back to our basement just in time to see my brother half way through the second mission coming out of the tunnels

Uh, man, it was a long time ago. I was at my friends house. I was probably 9 or 10. I finally got the game myself with some birthday money on my 11th birthday. But man, going over to his house and playing coop campaign with him was a blast. The classics were and still are great. I played it today. Simply amazing.

I was about 7 playing Halo 1

Don't judge me as a player by the statistics I have for Halo 3 on this Xbox Live account. My older account was unfortunately hacked and I had to start all over again. My older Bungie account was supamario493 with the gamertag ShottySnipa417, which had been stolen from me. I did, however manage to get Recon again. =D

I was about 10 when my friend showed it to me back in '03. Got hooked ever since. Can't say the same for my friend, though... he doesn't like xbox anymore. -_-

10 years old; several hours of some serios Blood Gulch custom games. This was in '05, I had no idea of the scale of the game I was playing. In 2007 I was exposed to Halo 3; it hooked me more than anything else I have ever experienced. I played the Ark, and it remains my favourite level to date. After Halo 3, I bought my own xbox and have become a fairly keen follower of the franchise since, despite my knowledge of the story being relatively small.

Do you serve a purpose, or purposely serve?

Think I was 12, I'm 22 now so I was either 11 or 12 at the time. Sounds cheesy but it literally did change my childhood! We'd play Halo co-op after school everyday on a tiny tv and think it was the best thing ever. Halo 2 - system link 3 on 3 with friends on lockout! Then we got Xbox live and the rest is history!

I WAS 3 YEARS OLD, I WOULD PLAY WITH MY DAD ONLY RUNNING PEOPLE OVER ON BLOOD GULCH WHEN IT FIRST CAME OUT

HALO:CE is my favorite game by campagian, its just amazing. it is a phenomenon at my house as we have been playing halo as my #1 game for my entire life (literraly), so i am extreamly excited

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

Around 6-8. Not exactly sure. But, that was only a few games. I really got into it when I was about 11 or 12.

play to win and dont settle for less

i was 10 years old and i remember going to my best friends house and he just bought an Xbox with halo. I remember playing it with him on co-op and had the feeling like i was actually in the game because at the time it was so realistic. I remember my heart beat racing while the first halo music would come on during a huge fire-fight against Elites!!

I remember being at a summer camp during '06, and some kids I was sharing a cabin with started talking about a game I've never heard of at the time, called 'Halo 2'. That was my first time ever hearing about it, but the first time I ever played one was during late '09, or early 2010.
