There is a thin line between insanity and genius, i would put myself right in the middle and i enjoy every second of it.

Out of all the Halo games, what is your favorite scene from them? more specificly, favorite quote! My favorite is Halo Reach, when Six simply says "We'll get it done, colonel... Six out" it sends a chill up my spine every time because of the sad music and overall epicness.

I acknowledge my user name is stupid. However, I promise I'm not.

Disclaimer: The latter is a lie.

Halo 3: ODST easter egg where SGT. Johnson is addressing the ODST's, and you are then given the opportunity to move the thumb-stick and see a monkey.

"This is the prototype NOVA Bomb, nine fusion warheads encased in lithium triteride armor. When detonated, it compresses its fusionable material to neutron-star density, boosting the thermonuclear yield a hundredfold. I am Vice Admiral Danforth Whitcomb, temporarily in command of the UNSC military base Reach. To the Covenant uglies that might be listening, you have a few seconds to pray to your damned heathen gods. You all have a nice day in hell..."

in HALO 3 where chief rescues cortana, finally, and he says "thought id try shooting my way out, y'know, mix it up a little"

....epic scene!

The start scene of Delta Halo. That's just magic and captures the balls out take control and get a foot hold I love about Halo.

  • 01.17.2012 6:18 PM PDT

No u

Probably the scene where Chief plants the bomb on the Covenant ship.

Probably the scene where Chief plants the bomb on the Covenant ship

"Sir, permission to leave the station"

"for what purpose Master Chief?"

" To give the covenant back their bomb."

"Granted"

Agreed, this scene is amazing!

Agreed. That one scene justifies that entire level for me.

New Marathon? Thanks Bungie!

the end of Reach, best part of the game cinematically

I always find myself watching the scene where Arbiter and Chief met up and are caught with Gravemind.

The only thing I could think of when I first saw it was, "What the hell happens now?"

This man, this man right here put it so eloquently that I actually cancelled my own 2000+ word long post.

The person who said participating is important, not winning, obviously never won anything.

You found me...

Absolutely love this cutscene. The music is amazingly beautiful, and the fact that they are both calm and happy to be together again despite the fact that they are in the middle of a Flood hive. And I love how Cortana gets brigheter when Chief says ''You know me... when I make a promise...'', showing that he wont leave her behind no matter what, and Cortana cheers up and feels happy for the first time in a long time.

And the realization that Cortana had the Index from Alpha Halo left me with my jaw on the floor because I had completely forgotten about when she took it away from 343 in Halo CE. Jen Taylors voice acting was top notch and very moving in this cutscene.

Just keep your head down... there's two of us in here now, remember

I'll probably change my mind later. But I really liked Johnson's death scene in Halo 3. Death scenes aren't really sad unless you know the person who's dying. And Johnson's been in all the Halo games.

This made me remember cheering at my screen and swearing back at the Elites as they get totalled!!

Great shout sir!

The cutscene at the end of Regret in Halo 2.

Mine is when the Chieftain assaults the ODST squad on top of the NMPD HQ. When I first saw it I thought even that vicious knifing wouldn't put that Brute down and that Romeo was for sure dead.


This.

The Halo 3 ending. -blam!- perfect and always makes me wanna cry a little inside.

  • 01.18.2012 10:49 AM PDT

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

The opening Halo 3 cutscene, the opening ODST cutscene, and the opening Halo Wars cutscene. Plus, the three ODSTs taking down the Brute Chieftan is an honorable mention.

  • 01.18.2012 3:17 PM PDT

I would have to agree with the other guys, was playing H3 today


*Cryptic messages and gravemind screams

Dark room, As you break the one source of light your screen begins to crackle and distort as the music really elevates.

then, it breaks, the light flashes and you are left in darkness and silence, Unsure of everything*

"...you found me"

That, if ever i saw one, is a dramatic cutscene of legends to make you shed a manly tear, Even Jen Taylor's voicework on the scene was absolutely superb, there was deep emotion in there.

smart, interesting, seems out of place.


Official fan of Assassin's Creed, Call of Duty, (Problem with that?) Halo, and Bungie, also a total gaming junkie.

Its a tie between Halo 2's final cutscene and Halo 3's final cutscene.

Didact's Reprisal -
Now is the time of our unworlding
One final effort is all that remains
And I am not afraid
We shall fulfill our promise
We fight for the grace of the Mantle
And this time none of you will be left behind

"We are leaving this ship, platoon, and engaging the Covenant on solid ground. When we meet the enemy, we will rip their skulls from their spines and toss them away, laughing!
...Am I right, Marines?"
"Sir, yes sir!"
"Mm-hmm. Damn right I am. Now move it out, double-time!"
Best snippet I could find.

Other favorites are:
"Dear humanity.."

"Could we possibly make any more noise!?"
