you are a good translator
Idiot can be a hard language to learn, but once you get it down, everything becomes so clear! The whole world will make sense to you.

For all of it's canon butchery, Reach managed to get a single tear out of me when Jorge died. As Noble Six looks at the wreckage of the Long Night of Solace and Never Forget plays, it just did it for me.

I think the best music is at the start of ONI sword base in the courtyard section... it's so badass. But if you kill the elites too quick then the awesome part doesn't play...

The on with the electric guitar and cellos? Yeah, that one is badass.

I frankly think the best music in Reach is the opening music on Tip of the Spear when the UNSC and Covenant go to battle. But I definitely choked up when Jorge go telleported away to his very probably doom. :'(

Could you elaborate a bit, not entirely sure what you're trying to say :/ Are you comparing the two tracks? I still think Unreconciled, as it seems to be called, is probably my top pick off of Reach's soundtrack. Maybe I'm just not one for really sad music, idk, I mean EVERY track that has anything to do with Halo is a masterpiece in and of itself, and there isn't a single one I don't like, but the music for Jorge's death just by itself doesn't feel as moving as, say, Johnson's death, or Unforgotten, both kinda tear me up every time I hear them :'/

Don't worry, you're still your mom's favorite Bnet member.

Cortana, all I want to know is did we lose them?

I think the music from Halo Wars is really underappreciated.

I really like that one, it gives me the sense of quote, "Warriors with not a lot of options, with their backs up against the wall" but it also gives us a moment to breathe by the end of it.

Soon to be breaking news:


US Coast Guard prepares for massive rescue mission after Iranian fleet sinks off shore. Reports say a small thunderstorm caused most of the ships to simply...fall apart.

The song that was played in the VGA. I believe it was played in the opening cutscene of the level "Tip of the Spear."

  • 03.18.2011 8:50 AM PDT

I laugh at your pitifall attempts to defeat me!

It has to be Reach's main theme. The music that is played in the opening, and slightly remixed throughout the Campaign, such as Jorge's Death and when the Pillar of Autumn escapes. It's awe-inspiring, and emotive.

I also love the Overture, especially when the Egyptian inspired section begins, at 0:15. I always stop and listen to that before I start playing the game.

The score at beginning of 'New Alexandria', as Six sits in the Pelican is just beautiful, as is the entirety of 'Epilogue'. The reveal trailer music, which also plays during the on-rails segment of Exodus and is remixed at the beginning of the final showdown of Pillar of Autumn, is also outstanding

I also love the many monk chants that play during levels; for example when you exit the Falcon at the beginning of Winter Contingency and when you make your way to the Control Room aboard the Covenant Corvette.

The intro piece to Sword Base, which was also present in the A Spartan Will Rise vidoc, is a nice track for getting you pumped to take down the Covenant.

By the power of truth, I, while living, have conquered the universe.

Every part in which the choir comes in, especially Jorge's death. Also, the mournful track during New Alexandria's opening and when Kat dies is simply divine.

The piano tune at the opening of Lone Wolf was very well done too.

all of it...can't pick one, it was all amazing!
