As you have heard before, it was late but I was wide awake manipulating my Duke (The xbox controller.) After the cutscene I was like, "That's right you come through that door! Oh $h!#!" Then the combat forms showed up and I passed out.

*shudders* well the flood at first were scarey and that was just the small ones, I was afraid I was gonna run out of ammo because that door just dident look like it was gonna open any time soon. Then when it did I wiped my sweaty palms on my pants and said "thank god". Then the combat forms jumped threw and I was like "OHHHH -blam!-!!!".

i started playing halo latter then most ppl, so i knew there was something called the flood, but i never real thought about it to much (that's just the kinda guy i am) but when that marine guy started shooting at me i got kinda freaked out. needless to say i was happy i got some free pistol rounds. when jenkins fell outta the door, i got really freaked out, but when i was the video the flood didn't really scare me and i was like "that's the worst idea for a monster i've ever seen" when i got in the room though, much to my dismay, i saw that these guys weren't a monster, they were millions of monsters. freaking out i shot one w/ my pistol and took out half the group. after that i was kinda settled, seeing that the ones i missed did almost nothing to my shields, until the combat forms came in. i shot and shot and shot, then the one i just dropped got up. i was like, "resident evil all over again :z"

Unfortuantley the first time I saw the flood was at my friends when we were playing co-op. Straight after the video i had to go home which was really lame cos it ruined the atmosphere (I had been playing halo campaign straight through for the first time ever).
Then I got halo on the pc which wasnt that good cos only after 343 guilty spark did i realise gore was turned off so there was none of that creepy blood splattered all over the walls!
Then I got an xbox, and it was amazing!!!(still a little creepy)

Moral of the story:always play the campaign in the dark, and BUY HALO ON XBOX.

When i first played guilty spark, and i came across that insane marine, i got a bad feeling, and when i saw those dead covenant, i thought 'did those marines do that? No way, the're too wimpy for that'. Then i say the cutscene and i was like '-blam-, that's stupid, i have to kill tiny octopuses'. I stood in that room........BOOM.......BOOM.......BLAM......a million creepy aliens crawled out.....i leaped back coz NOOOO don't touch me freaks....'shot a whole clip empty from AR.....pffff, that was easy......Suddenly....somethings' growling......screen turns red, i turn around, bunch'o zombies tryin' to get me! Said to myself WTF is this DIE FREAKS DIE DIE DIE...... hated the flood eversince.....now i won The Library on Legendary, 'think The Flood are really cool enemy's to fight! They better be in Halo 2.

Like everyone else i was addicted to this game so it was at about 12-3 in the morning.

The first thing that did it for me was the marine...crap...gulp...like most of the post...when you were little and you absolutly knew something was under your bed, well thats how that whole level was. Just kept creeping around real slowly waiting for some massive attack from the covenant. then i saw that video, again i was like...crap...gulp....more creeping even slower because i had no idea what was going on. i got in the room where the "octopus" flood completly flood the room, died, then it was over and that music continued to play...crap...gulp...walk out the door into a couple of them and again i was dead...finally i got out that place then that library with hundreds and hundreds of those...i wonder why Bungie named them the flood.

General tone- Scared (crap)less and amazed at how despite all the movement there were no Jaggies. Congragulations Bungie you succesfully made all of us scared no matter who dosnt admit it.

Ok, this is my stopry, me and my cousin were playing co-op at his house, it was around 1:00 am or 12:00 am, we completed the game up to 343 GS, we went in saw the maniac, (my cousin never got up to that part before, we listened around the corner to his screaming and his story, we both looked at each other, and then both of us shot him in the head with our pistols, when we saw the Jenkins video we were absolutly freaked out!!! When it ended we went to the far door and stood back to back, we heard BOOM! BOOM! KA-BOOM!! We still stood back to back not moving, then my cousin, brendon was attacked, he was in front of the door, he moved I moved, his shields went to 0 and he died, I was like you son of a ***** **** you die you mother ******!!! We both only had a plasma pistol and a human pistol, brendon came back and start with an awsome AR, the combat forms came next, we hit 'em with all we had but they came back, brendon died and I had 3 hp with half shields, the combats kept comin' at me, so I just ran for it, out the door up the ramp uh oh! FLOOD!!

Bam! Bam! Brendons back yahoo! Grenade! Brendon dead! Godam! Grenade! Move back boom!

Then I lost my shields, then the octopus latched on me, right then brendon came back, he took out his pistol and shot the flood, killing me in the process, awww.

Right then the flood, 2 on each side of him, attacked him, then he died.

GAMEOVER!!!

I have extracted revenge on the flood in halo 2 also, however...


THE FLOOD SUCKS! Full stop.

EDIT: Then when we were on the level Keyes, we were a little more prepared, we didnt stop in front of door that the flood were gonna come out of for one!
But when we saw keyes just hanging with all the dead elites and grunts that made that huge.....thing, we freaked out over load! Then the flood came up the ramps, I stayed back while brendon charged through, I found that brendon had left me in the room with the flood! I was horror struck, I looked at brendon and said why?
His reply was "If I survive and you die atleast you'll come back wherever LOOKOUT!"
Right then the combat forms found my hiding place and started shooting, the little ones killed me and I came back right next to brendon, "point taken"
In the MAW, it was a little better, tghe flood appeared in broad daylight, we died so many times, when we finished the game (after much struggle in the warthog with one minute total time to escape) I finally realised brendon had this on ****ing LEGENDARY!!! Then we saw the scene at the end with Johnsan and the Elite killing that flood, who said Humans and Elites dont work well together! Then we saw after the credits Guilty Spark floating in deep space, sooo, he survived eh? That was my thought. End.

Story Complete Shut down in t minus 5,4,3,2,1, Zip!

When I saw them I shoot first and think later, then when they are all dead one jumps up from the ground and feaks me out but i found a way to end that by slashing the bodies after I kill them!!!

When i first saw the flood i was like wtf r these bastards, and then just started killing em. But then like a 1000 of em just go crime mobb on you and the only hope for survival is the assault or tha shotty and it was just really awkward becuz it was my hardest fight cuz i started the game on legendary when i firt got it.
