Have you ever seen a ten year-old be ambushed by mutoid zombies in a ghost-town facility at twelve p.m.?


I screamed, jumped to the xbox and turned it off. I didn't play Halo until the following Christmas.


This was me, minus the not-playing-until-the-following-christmas part. I was freaked, but I was more on the "WTF IS THAT???!!!!???" part.

SC = Supreme Commander/Supreme Canadian.

De Facto leader of the military of the APE (Allied Planets Empire).

Coup = Admiral Asskicker, ZPM hive ship

Well I got the game five months after it was released...

...and only completed it two days after I got Halo 3.

What does that say to you?

Was EVERYBODY in this thread at most 11 years old when they first played Halo: CE?

But, yeah, I had a nightmare that night and didn't play again for a week or two.

What can I say? The first video game I ever played was either Halo: CE or Super Smash Bros. Melee.

dude i only have halo ce for pc, and since you're so close to the screen you can see all the details YUCK

I was about 12 and after watching the video of how the A.I.s died I was freaked and then after seeing the radar going crazy, they all came out of the doors and I was like -blam!-! I had chills all down my back and I was backing up against the wall spraying bullets everywhere. My little brother got freaked and ran away. They were terrifying!!! A lot scarier than halo 3. I am glad they took them out of Reach

I killed him in the face!

I stopped playing when I saw the Human Combat Form

They were annoying to fight when I first met them, and there still annoying to fight now.

  • 02.20.2011 8:42 PM PDT

Played it with my dad when I was only 5, once I saw the video I just looked away and my dad started to kill most of them and then he told me it wasn't hard to kill them so I tried to kill them and got owned.
Note: Was on Normal. :P

The last two options.

Playing with my little brother the moment the Flood came out we both said, "HOLY -blam!-", and proceeded to run away from the flood before realizing we still had guns in our hands.

Let's play some custom games!

I was very little and when I saw them I paused the games and hid under a blanket. It was dark out so I was pretty scared. My dad saw me and started laughing and sat there to keep me company and cheer my killing of the mutant freaks.

  • 02.26.2011 6:59 PM PDT

I first thought they were actually Covenant. But then, you know. They made me feel more aware.

Halo 3 is where the morons of the universe congregates.

I am thinking of an old story. "Three Billy Goats Gruff" (hint the troll dies at the end)

If you had an electron microscope, you still couldn't find the -blam!- I don't give.

I was 10, 2003, when i first saw them, so you can see where that went. 8 years later I just laugh at the flood when i play a halo game with the flood in it

I rememeber walking into the room with the freaked out Marine and all the blood on the walls and just thinking "what is going on?" Then those little shrimp looking Floods started coming from everywhere. That was the most intense sequence in a game ever because I never saw it coming. I was hooked on Halo at that moment. It is the greatest game franchise ever!
