Oh the Library. That crazy campaign mission that you either loved as an example of the beauty that the Flood showed in their immpossability to kill or hated because you through your Xbox through you TV while trying to beat it on Legendary.

What are your opinions on it?

I got lost on this level... lots of times.

Favourite level of all time. Yes it was frustrating on legendary but that just made every checkpoint worth it.

Hated that level. Just staying alive long enough on Legendary to get ahold of the shotgun was epic. Once you got it your job was half done. Shotgun and needler saw me through to the end.

I disliked it at first, but even then I respected its role in the campaign's flow and storytelling. These days I've grown to quite like it.

I'm still baffled by how many people think it's difficult, though; it's got nothing on T&R, Two Betrayals, or Keyes. I'd actually argue it's one of the easier levels. You just gotta learn to dance with the Flood; if you fight them like you fight Covenant, then yes, it'll be pretty difficult and frustrating.

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

It's funny, cause once you know the corridors you can literally run right through it, only having to fight when Spark has you wait.

Be kind to others; you'll feel better.

I loved it. Legendary co-op, the Library. It was madness.

Favorite level in the best video game of all time. It's counterintuitive that a redundant overbearing level should be my favorite level but I really think it encapsulated the bravery of Master Chief, it let you immerse yourself in the desperate fight against the flood and feel like there is no way you can stop it...

I like your spawn can I have it?

It's my favorite level in the game, and sometimes it can be frustrating. But it can also be really funny and random at times.

"i have been playin reech it is kewl game i like 2 spam armer lawk in it its fun and i win against good peopls. i plai cod alot so idk much about halo. wat is halo ce?"

Frustrating, yet epic at the same time. Shotgunning hordes of zombie like creatures, doesn't better than that.

I did find somewhat long, but most levels were as well. To me.

I remember that pissed off feeling when you fight your way through a corridor of Flood, only to step into the next corridor and get greeted by a rocket to the face.

Good times.

My favorite level of all time. Love playing it on Legendary. It truly felt that the Flood was the Flood. Man, I gotta get this game back from my friend.

Arrogant hyperbolic exclamations of woe? Seems like a normal day for Halo/Bungie.net.

It's funny how the things we hated make us nostalgic and think of them as "good times". Anyways, the Library was probably one of the most retarded video game experiences I've ever had next to "Cortana". Back in the day, of course.

Now it makes me think of the countless hours I spent playing CE on Legendary with my cousins and friends.
