I was 33 years old and the first time I played it I fell asleep playing it because I played it for like seven hours. I woke up at 5 am to the sound of me respawning and getting killed over and over.

Awesome!

I was 20 I think and i played it so much I would hear the dee dee dee sound of shields beginning to fail when I wasn't playing :)

It's a metaphor for the 07s' lack of identity. too old to be newfa­g, yet too new to be oldfa­g, we wander b.net in search of a home, forever trying to be something we are not.

That's the number of bans in this thread. Next time you want to derail something, go stand in front of a train.

I was 11 when i first played it, 6 years ago. Had a previous account on bungie.com/net too, but it got deleted from inactivity :S

People moved in across the road from us, we went over and their son had halo, he asked if i wanted to play with him.

First level i experienced, Truth and Reconciliation and loved it!

Got it for PC and Mac later :P

I first played Halo when I got an Xbox for my birthday in early 2002. Then in late 2004 I joined LIVE for Halo 2, with a multiplayer of which to this day remains my favourite gaming experience. Nowadays I tend to play Halo a lot less as the current game isn't remotely close to meeting the par of it's predecessors.

I would have been 8 because i got my xbox for Christmas '02.

I was about 10. Now I'm 17.

Once you land on Halo and meet up with the marines for the first time and start having the massive battle, I just went "Wow!".

Pioneer and Enthusiast for Halo 3.

I was about 8 Years of age.
Surely, just like all of us, I have a hell of a time playing this classic. I stood up for days on the nights I didn't have school. I would play all night and day, and had tons of fun doing so. Those memories will be forever in my mind.

All it took was a stew of whoopass.

This is the hardest question that I can't answer with any certainty. I got the game (or my dad did, at least) around Christmas of '02 or '03. I'm 13 (gasp!) now, so if I did the math right I was either..... 5 to 7. I think I was 6 when I started to play it, but I have no certainty over it.

13. November of 2009, to be exact. Now, before you call me an immature noob, or some emo kid that just likes to see gore, let me say that I am in fact capable of handling violence, and that I do not play violent games just to see someone's head fall off.
Anyway, I had heard about Halo 3 from friends, and we had an original Xbox, plus Halo. So, when my brother was leaving for UIC one weekend (he used to come home weekends, now he's in Switzerland) if I could try it. So I did, and I loved it. Even now after playing Half-Lifes 1 and 2, and all the Halo Games, CE still is my favorite. That "Holy -blam!- moment when I say the flood is forever imbedded in me, as are the countless games of Slayer on Hang em High and Headlong.

Funny story actually, the first time I was introduced to Halo was christmas of 2004. I stayed up with my father all night that night and we beat the game in a day. I woke up that night with nightmares!
