Same for me I used to hate the sick things, but I got over it. Just finish the game. You first only see a few of the flood and they seem to be scary as hell but that al changes once you get to the hated level, "The Library" in that level you have to face like 1,000 flood of all the different forms. After that level the flood just become another thing to have fun shooting at. Oh and BTW the flood are exceptionally weak so not much to fear. Oh and if you want to have lots of fun with the flood just shoot off both there arms while they are still alive; once you do that they just kind of follow you around and can’t do a thing to you. =P

Yeah, before I had actually gotten to the part of the game where the flood where, and had only heard about them, I didn't realize that they looked like that, and had no idea that they were so important to the storyline. It was cool to find that they had so much effect on how the game goes. But anyway, the guy's right, the Library is where you get over your phobia. By the end, you are so bored of Flood it's like, please oh please let me have something else to kill, the Flood are too easy.

Besides, they only really look like flopping jellyfish if you don't look closely.

Yeah, I actually played Halo 2 first, and it took me a while to get past the Heretic because I was so scared but when I beat that High Charity I was like "Psh, stupid flood." But yeah the Library really numbs your phobia. The flood are cool though. I just hope that they improve their A.I. next game if they're going to be in it, because I'm just tired of mundane, repetetive zombie shootouts five levels into a game.

Plus, I never fear the flood anymore because I've got some of the most powerful weapons in first-person shooters... the mouse and keyboard!

But I love having flood 'pets' as my friend calls them. I also love to bash my pets in the head with a rocket launcher, shotgun, or pistol.

Gahh! Spoiler alert! Spoilers BAD! SPOILERS BAD!!!

>_<

The flood are just plain creepy. They get even more creepy the better your computer is. I discovered that when switching from my old, fried computer to my newer computer (which had a better gfx chipset).

If you're still on the swamp level (343GS), then you've got more scares from the flood coming up...some very closely tied to the plot...

Frankly, I think that the Covenant ones aren't scary at all. It's just the human ones, and you get used to them.

Anyone ever tried going through the entire 343GS level with the first "pet" you can make? man, it is hard! I keep ally him.

It followed me home...can we keep it?

Banana's right, though, the Human ones are just damned creepy. Ever blown it's head off and looked into the hole? Green blood, jawbone, tongue, windpipe, all rendered in stunning (and disturbing) detail. Same with the arms and legs.

Eeew.

Nothing's more funnier than bashing one's head in with a rocket launcher.

Hmm...one way to break the phobia is whenever theyre around turn on medusa and watch the guys run around and explode and die a gruesome death :D

But seriously. I fear no flood. I am much more than capable than filling their infected ranks with buckshot.
