It was a dark and stormy night when I got to that level. Midnight. I was tired. Then I start thinking that jungle looks really weird. Then I continue and get to the part where Jenkins fall out when the doors open. I was like meh... Then these things come out and they die but sometimes come back to life. The music made it worse. I didnt sleep that night.

Every time you sneeze into an open Febreze portal the boner-tree drive shaft will spin into ketchup. But it doesn't stop at the number two pizza bell, not even close. It continues into the seventy eight minute long pile of green, sobbing cheese trains with no more butter, but more like the steak owed the tin cans some lovin'.

What I do is play 343 Guilty Spark with the brightness on the TV turned way down. That makes it pretty creepy with all the lights flickering and stuff. But if you want to be really scared by a game play Doom 3 with the volume at full blast.

I try to spot the Flood that appear in the level before you go down the elevator. They dissapear into the void just as you noticed them....

i just thought to myself..." Hmm..knew enemiy! yay! more ways to kill" and i eventually after 3 mins found that shotgun is the cure to the diseas of the flood.

so i voted. "Are these ment to scare me?"

~But seriously, the humming of the oracles' humming scary, like he didn't care if i died!

and at the end of "The Libary" level a flood killed me during that cut seen on heroic mode, there were like 3 or 4 little brain-looking ones that killed me.

Me? I was like "WTF, the manual didn't mention anything about this!" This was during the Jenkens cutscene. After the Flood enter the first room, this is what proceeded to happen:
*empties clip on AR into Flood combat form as it jumps at me * "It's not dying! AHHHH!!!" *empties clip on AR again* NOT DEAD! WTF? AHHHHHH!!! *empties third clip* Good heck! finally! *turns back on flood, flood gets up and proceeds to kill MC (me)*
After First Contact, I figured that plasma grenedes would work, but it was essentially a repeat of above. Except they ran toward me...and I died...again.
Third spawning, I got pissed, and proceeded to beat the snot out of anything in that first room.
Also, the Jenkens cutscene is probably one of my favorites in Halo.

when i first saw them i was like... what a copy from half life. if any of you had ever played they completely took the idea from those little guys and how they attach to people and take over them. except in half life it was a lot more scarier.

about that tv brightness way down thats a great way to scare new halo players :) i scared my little bro sh** less. after we were done playing he went "you a** hole" and i went
" well at least nothin else will ever scare you again on halo" also bungie didnt make zombies out of them. if you read HALO THE FLOOD the book it tells you how exactly its like to become a flood combat form and how carrier forms are made good job bungie for the idea of the flood. also i know this isnt exactly gonna be halo 1 material but if you wanna kill the flood fast on H2, shoot them in the chest and/or slash them with the sword. it works help me stay alive on legendary. :)

I think you should burn your halo disc for wanting something this skill free, host dependent, repetative, stupid, and overall bad. I hope you burn in the hottest fires of hell for presenting such a terrible idea. In conclusion, jesus died for everyone but you.

I don't know why people think the flood are so scary. There actually annoying as hell I must say. They piss me off. In fact, I'd rather have burning diahhrea then fight them.

I thought the same after seeing an Igor lurcin by the turrett, believe me by the time i had got to the flood id played the game for days it seemed, my reaction after each level was, there's more? and boy i died about four times before running round and round firing my rifleand finnaly nailing the suckers, only to get whacked by the big jobbies, still its no problem now i just stand my ground and butt the bast***,

probably (after the zombies grabbing u thru the curtain in resident evil) the scariest gaming moment of my short life,

WAHOOOOO
