I'm not the kind to get scared about things on video games. It was more of a, hmm? There coming at me, why? Must be an enemy! Blam, blam, blam! Then I met the combat forms, and I had lots of fun and smiles. Until they got back up! That made me realize that hey! This really sucks. They can come back...So, I got the boomstick out. Ha, ha, ha!

Well I can say that I was afraid..........at first the marine was shooting at me and the place was a mess and the green stuff all over that wall was pretty freaky, and when I watched the video of Jenkins I was totally freaked out and when they all started to come after me I was thinking "Oh god, oh god, oh god" and then the combat forms were crawling all over me, I just couldnt take it and then I just turned the game system off, and then a couple days later I tried it again........

i was like i my god because it was right after it had come out and i was at my friends house late at night and he told me to expect weird stuff and when we started out on 343 GS he skipped the cut scene and so when we first encountered them a combat form jumped up and came down at me so i gunned it down and we kept playing like always.

first time playin the game. friend needed some help clearing it on legendary, he had convieiently left me in the dark about the horror that was about to unfold... I too noticed the explosions opon the hill tops and the shadowy figures unlike any I had seen before. Getting a bit trigger happy already. then the grunts and jackels running from the gunfire, and I thought "Marines, we found them" *friend still silent*. But there was none there*reloads AR* then the man with the pistol, who my friend killed for the pistol ammo before which I heard "Your not turning me into one of those"*bang* then he was silent. Human and cov blood all over the walls aswll as that green cr*p. Everything is quite too quite. walk backwards down the ramp in case of ambush and get to door first. watch jenkins video and my finger starts twitchin at the trigger. Video ends door open and then the -blam!- hits the fan. AR full auto told to save the grineades till later.not too worried until attack form jumps at me friend guns it down while i reload. Man that was scary-blam!- and I SURVIVED

They scared me :P Whatever happened to the cute little grun-oh, they became walking gruntades.

I hate the dark, I hate zombies, I hate facehugger aliens, and I hate things that jump out and yell "Booraaaaaarrrgh!". For whatever reason, I seem to meet the Flood in the dark, they're like armed zombies with facehugger friends, AND they jump outta nowhere and make unnatural noises.

Well I was playing in the middle of the night all by my lonesome. At first I was like "oh yeah weapons cache? This is gonna be one big covie battle,.." My reaction to the blood on the wall "wow the marines got their guns goin". And then I met Mr. Crazy, I listened in "They took the lives ones! I wont let you turn me into one of those things!" *uh oh* The Jenkins video put me into the marines' perspective, and after the cutscene ended the first thing i did was reload. I myself don't like the shotgun (on the account that i always die from it). The infection forms ramming the door only met lead. And then while I was reloading all of my weapons(AR and pistol), the combat forms broke through. I ran away so fast. I reloaded, turned around and shot them. I thought "whoah that was to close" then they got back up. I threw a grenade into their and took off. The only thing that actually scared me was the objective marker appear at the top of your screen, "Escape!". All in all The Flood will always hold a special place in my heart, as well as my target reticle.

After landing i saw the glow sticks and headed over to the pelican found a shotgun and ran off into the night when i got past the hord of screaming grunts and jackles i noticed human gunfire coming out of the tunnel and friendly people on radar i rushed off toward the mariens disregarding the screaming enemys and continued insied until i saw what i now have come to call the "mess hall" with the grunt blood every where i found the insain marien listened to what he had to say and continued onward until i herd him scream i went back and he was gone except for a bloodytrail up the wall when i got to the Jenkins Room i instantly reloaded and started to fire at ige squid like creatured that were saying "wa wan wo" . i can tell you that as soon as the infected flood cam in i just fired my gun at full auto and the smoke from my gun made it impossabil to see, my bullets licked the floor were the dead elliete flood were and they got back up so i had a bunch of armless flood following me around we had a special bond those flood and me, back to the point i somehow saved the mariens that were retreating and they killed my flood pets so i killed them i went to the first ellivator and it blew up so i continued onward till i found the black dude and i knew all was well. Well not for long, I continued out of the marine base into the swamp untill i noticed my twenty or so mariens had mostly dissapered and i saw flashes of yellow on my radar and then vanashed, so me and my five mariens returned to base picking up a marine along the way who was behind a bush. we held the base for about half an hour of continued attack bu flood untill only two men were left. Two of the men who had died at the base had been attacked by the small flood and the mariens went screaming off into the night.

I thought this was an awesome twist for a game, one you never see in first person shooters. About the time I got sick of fighting jackals, grunts, and elites, a four-way war erupts between the humans, covenant, flood, and the sentinels. How freakin' cool is that?
