I think as an og fan this is why I initially hated Halo 4. If you look at the game subjectively and not as a Halo game, it’s actually really good. As someone who is a big fan of the Bungie art style and Marty O’Donnell’s classic Halo riffs, this game just didn’t sit right, I felt betrayed as a fan. I think also since the original trilogy was always about valor and selflessness, saving the world fearlessly from great threats, this new sense of loss and focus on the Chief as an individual rather than a godly hero made me a bit uncomfortable. But looking back 343 made a good game here, and expanded the lore, and the Didact was a really cool character. I still feel very mixed on this game, maybe if they had stuck to the classic art style and made the Promethians look a bit different it would have helped me to accept it more at the time, but Halo 4’s campaign is special in its own right. I’m glad they’re improving and listening to the fan base again since Halo 5’s disaster, and I’m really looking forward to Halo Infinite being a great game.
I remember the night my brother came home with this. the game had just come out. he came through the door with Halo CE, Halo 2, Halo 3, and Halo 4 all in a bag. he looked at us (me and other siblings) and said 5 words I will never forget. "It's Halo game night guys." that was 9 years ago to the day. He's rarely around these days but.. I'll never forget those years. (Edit: I had completely forgotten about this post. Lotta stuff was happening. In short, Seeing as I seem to have hit quite a few people with nostalgia, I would like to thank each and every person who took the time to read my post. As for the absurd amount of likes, I was, and still am shocked. All I can say is a very big thank you, and I hope you all are doing ok.)
Ive got the same experience but he brought all the Jak and Daxter games (we never even beat the first one lol), Red Steel, and Mariokart Wii which we absolutely 100%ed
@@lucasrobin2788 at the time there were at least... 9 of us I think. My brother was in town so we all decided to hang out with him, hence Halo Game Night
I hated that line, because he never felt that about himself. He wasn't a confused person, earlier in life he reasoned that he as a Spartan had a great purpose, this line took away from that like he had no agency up until that point.
@@mushroomhead86117Chief never held himself higher than anyone and never declared himself more important than others, so half your comment is wack. The other half is just whining so I don’t care.
@@cliptrashbin2389 I just found the gameplay repetitive and the enemies and mission design poor. The art style has a heavy blue-tint and doesn’t look like Halo and the story just did nothing for me.
@@SillyGoober2024 I gave it every benefit of the doubt. I didn’t go into it wanting it to be just be another Halo 3. I went in blind, so I wouldn’t see everybody else’s criticisms of it, and could get a fresh opinion. I still came out disappointed. Here were the main takeaways I got by the end: -I wasn’t motivated to see the end of the story, because I knew exactly where it was gonna go -The blinding lens flares and heavy post-processing looked ugly -The Librarian and Mantle of Responsibility plot added needless convolution to an otherwise straightforward story -The Didact was a very weak villain, and his final boss fight sucked -The mission design and level design was very rudimentary and forgettable -The Prometheans are swarming bullet sponges -The art style looks less Halo-like and looks more like other generic sci-fi -The game was too short -The only thing driving me forward in the plot was seeing how humanity reacts to Chief’s return, and that was so anticlimactic
My dad and I went to the midnight release of this game. He could barely play, getting maybe 1 kill at best each game. But it didn't matter to him. He was just proud to play with me. He loved to watch how excited I would get, and how good he thought I was at the game. He loved seeing me happy, and it made him happy. I miss playing Halo with my dad. Halo 4 was our last halo together, as Halo 5 wasn't splitscreen. Sure, we would occasionally switch off, but it wasn't the same. I couldn't help him get kills, get the rocket launcher for him, or go in together to take on the team. He couldn't drive my warthog for me to be his gunner. I have heard rumors of Infinite being splitscreen, so I am hoping that we can finally play infection together again all these years later. Cant believe I was 13 when Halo 4 came out. Here I am typing this at 22.
We're probably the same age, I didn't have a dad to play this with or anyone beside online players but I'll never forget the Solace this game gave me In a dark time in my life.
I love how all Halo music reflects the corresponding game perfectly. An artificial world older than our species, forged by an extinct extraterrestrial race with an unfathomable understanding of the Cosmos. The music is beautiful, sad, and incredibly alien sounding all at once. Masterpiece, as the rest of the series is. I fucking love Halo.
Halo 4 was unique compared to the other halos. Halo 4 wanted to show its true emotions and beauty to the world. And I loved it that way. The theme song is just fantastic.
The question is Who is the better Master Chief Bungie Master Chief Or 343 Industries Master Chief Personally, I think 343 Master Chief is better cause he's more open and talks more, can't wait to see him reunite with Arbiter
4 was my first halo, I have since played all of the others save for wars, wars 2, and spartan strike. I acknowledge this game isn't the best but it's still good.
I think about this a lot. Even if we had a good lobby with no bad vibes it would only *remind* you of the older times instead of giving you the real feel of the older times.
I've literally thought the same exact sentiment about my teenage and early 20's. As far as Halo 4, I started playing that in 2019. Still such a nostalgic game! My bros and I built some of the best maps of any game. So epic! But yeah, when 64 came out and when I first played Ocarina and Smash brothers, and Goldeneye and Perfect Dark and all the epic movies of the late 90's and early 2000's like Matrix and Gattaca and the Arnold movies, all the 90's dance music and pop, and playing Yu-gi-Oh and Pokemon every Saturday at Brad's Comic store and playing flashlight tag on Pebble Beach. The excitement when you are young is so fresh and amazing! No matter what anyone feels, we can't stop the flow of time. One day Jesus will return and the world will be new again and for those who believe they will experience the greatest paradise! What will we remember of this life? I wonder. But one thing I do know is I want everybody to be a passenger on the train of eternity. Blessings in Christ Jesus!
@@AerisVera7 Hope you're right about the second half. Life changes all the time and the magic is bound to fade, but at least we can look to what comes after. Maybe ill see you there one day
0:25 - The Sorrow of Loss (Vocals) 2:07 - Beyond the Void (Brass/Violin/Piano) 3:45 - Hope Within (Chime/Violin/Electric) 6:11 - Long Forgotten (Violin/Electric/Piano) 9:10 - Hope Within Reprise (Chime/Violin/Electric) 11:38 - Long Forgotten Reprise (Violin/Electric/Piano)
6:15 - 9:05 I remember getting this game back in 2012 when it first came out. Just graduated high school not too long before that, and it was a transitional period, as it was for most. The next gen console rumors started to spread as they were just over the horizon. This was one of the last games I ever got for my 360, and boy, talk about going out with a bang. Once I finished the campaign, I sat at the main menu for who knows how long.. then this part of the theme hit. It gave me a nostalgic feeling, not just for the series up to that point, but my whole grade school career, all the memories I made with old friends, and an ode to the journey of life that is still yet ahead. Not to mention this also evoked the end of one of the best console generations. Couldn't help but shed a tear. Decided to look this up and listen to it again, and it still evokes those same powerful emotions, 6 years later. What a masterpiece. I put the end of this game up there with Titanfall 2, as far as emotional impact for me in an FPS. Long live the Chief. 🖖
This comment hit me. I can absolutely relate to you. I was unexpectedly shoved down memory lane listening to this; it reminded me of a simpler time just after high school playing this with my sister before I went off to college and had life go awry in all sorts of ways. The emotional journey that the Chief goes on in this story, with the irony of being an emotionless human paired with an increasingly emotionally sensitive AI, really resonated with me and my own journey through poor mental health, where being numb, cold and robotic was seemingly the only refuge. This soundtrack just kicked my ass listening to it again lol If you have the game, a headset and console, hit me up man. Would be nice to explore that world again.
Sorry to be that person but I'm not sugar coating it. This piece of crap song doesnt belong in halo. This does NOT sound anything like a halo game. This shit sounds like Indians about to fuck... none of this sounds like a halo game. I really hated halo 4. This game doesnt deserve the halo name, this is basically a mass effect game, just look at it and listen. The music never gave me a halo feeling and the damn armor make way too much box noises. That's what it literally sounds like.....a whole bunch of boxes tumbling down the stairs. Everything about this game is nothing like halo. The guns sound nothing like they once did. The armor doesnt look anything like they once were. Even the vehicles were shit.
Halo 4 is such an underrated game. While you were graduating high school, I was in 4th grade and had to beg my parents for this game. They were worried about violence but i was allowed to get it eventually. I played the shit out of it, it was my first game.
Listen, Halo 1-3 theme was about fighting a huge war against the Covenant. But, Halo 4 is a emotional story the original theme would not fit the emotional story.
vr - yea the og halo theme was fit for a part of a series where halo didn’t focus on characters and instead on the main plot which was just mostly master chief being his badass self. Halo 4 really did take another turn. Chief is trying to figure out what his purpose is. He doesn’t know wether he’s a machine or a man. It’s a more deep and sadder story that needs its own theme.
It's the beginning of the Reclamation...not the Covenant one but Humanity Reclamation of the Mantle that's the story 343 is trying to tell. Humanity reclaiming what the forerunners lost
@@Guranga93I mean they just kinda got fucked by Bungie lore wise, Bungie started throwing out loads of new concepts in Halo 3’s terminals and said they’d be on a shield world, then killed off/sent away the most important characters besides Chief and Cortana and then dumped them near a shield world (Halo 3 legendary ending), 343 didn’t have much wiggle room to work with.
We used this song at my great grandmother’s funeral. She died at 100 years old. She carried the family all these years. This song put up a good vibe of loss
I hope that is my funersl song too because i was the biggest fan of this game and i still am now, i loved the memories and cant stop thinking about the game
This comment basically made me realize that the opening female voice is a lament to Cortana. Now I'm really sad. Great pun btw, I'll have to steal it from you.
Right, for anyone wanting the seperate tracks, here they are in the order they appeared in: 1. Atonement 0:27 2. Wreckage 3:43 3. Green and Blue 6:11 Now I must go. My planet needs me. (Edit: Timestamps added as per request.)
My xbox came with this game included, man, when i put the game in the console and i started to play it, i felt a lot of emotion, and, this music, the first time that i listened it, it was an amazing feeling, thank you so much Halo 4, you have a very special place inside my hearth, what a beautiful childhood
I got Mine at 2013 and it was the best time in my whole Life, i will never forget the music the Characters and the Marines who fought Side by Side whit me in my Young Ages
It’s a rainy day and you’ve just got in from school, you hear and smell that dinner is is the making but you glimpse over to your Xbox and give the quick thought of playing Xbox with some friends so you decide to jump on for about 20 minutes, your friends and yourself play halo and join an infected lobby, 20 minutes turns to 4 hours but you never realised, you were in the moment enjoying yourself as the rain droplets hit the window in the background you were all happy but the one thing you never thought about was that this particular moment could have been the last time anyone of you were online or to be seen again
Halo 4 was first Halo that I owned personally. I bought it in 2014 - my parents waren't very happy about that, but it was my birthsday, so they let me spend my money in the way I wanted. I was already quite experienced with Halo, played a lot of 3 and Reach around 2010-2013 with my friends (ah, good old days of 4 player splitscreen), before I got my own Xbox 360 in 2013, shortly after moving away with family. Needs to be said, that I had two younger sisters, that never had been intersted in Halo series, but, to my suprised, clever bastards really picked it up. Now it's almost five years later. We spend countless hours in Halo 4, and even now we play from time to time, since we bought Xbox One and Halo MCC. We still play Husky Raid, Infection or Forge from time to time, but it is not the same as it was back in 2015-2016. I was in middle school, away from home, and we only got to play at the weekends, when I usually came back home. And this... just floods the memories. How I sat there, in my room, waiting for my sisters to came here and whoop my ass in 2v1. I could listen to whole 20 mins of main menu soundtrack, waiting for them to finally come. And then, we would play for hours, having infinite amounts of fun, and then go outdoors to play with our beloved dogs. Much simpler, better times. Now I sit there, heartbroken, even more far away from home. I'm in college, mainly alone and depressed, one of my sisters soon is starting middle school herself, and one of two adorable dogs died yesterday. I just want those beatiful days back again.
What a history. Also,what a coincidence,I also bought Halo 4 at 2014,it came alongside my Xbox 360,Gears of War 3 and Kinect Adventures. I still remember the day and exact time(December 5,14h:34min,2014, Brasilia's Time Zone.),daddy coming with a box. A white box. I was 8 years old.
when i was 9-10 it was my dream to be able to sing this, now I'm 17 and in choir, and randomly remembered it while doing warmups and said, "yeah, i still wanna do this"
NOT LIKE DIDNT RUIN MASTER CHIEFS CHARACTER AND CORTANA ITS NOT LIKE HALO5 CAMPAIGN WAS SUPER PREDICTABLE ITS NOT LIKE THE RANKED SUCKS ASS ITS NOT LIKE THEY RUINED VEHICLES ITS NOT LIKE THE MULTIPLAYER IS SO UNBALANCED ITS NOT LIKE YOU NEED TO GROW 5 YEARS OLDER AND PLAY HALO3 ITS NOT LIKE YOU PLAY FALLOUT 76 GIT A LIF
@@watersquid8847 nice troll. This game wasn't that bad. The multiplayer with mediocre but the campaign was fun and the story was great. The music perfectly fit the setting and people like to complain because they finally added some changes after three games.
I’ll be honest, we had problem with the story as it was a rough and almost painful change from the other games, almost replacing all that we loved. We initially disliked the story, and some still do, but it actually was good at most points. We still have a problem with the gameplay, however.
@@dum5247 I actually liked the story in terms of the writing but the gameplay I wasn’t that happy about. This story really made you feel for master chief and I believe did a good job expanding his character.
Ouch this hurts, real bad. It hurts that I'll probably never be able to have the fun moments I had, playing co-op with my mom whenever she had free time. Thank you for playing games with me mom, I miss you, and I hope you're doing well
The biggest critique common to Halo's storytelling was that it was all set pieces and no characters. Halo 4 proved Halo has a heart. I will forever praise this game for that.
There's definitely a lot to critique and a lot that went wrong imo. My biggest issues were the changes to the way Covenant weapons worked (they burn through ammo way too fast) and how quickly dropped weapons despawn. And also the redesign of the Covenant species was horrible. It made them all uglier (and not in a good way). A lot of people hated the new Forerunner lore but I actually think its interesting and mostly ok. I don't think it was presented and explained very well though. I feel like there's an odd loop where you have to have read the Greg Bear trilogy of Forerunner books to understand Halo 4, but you have to have played Halo 4 to understand the Forerunner books too.
I liked halo 4, but there’s a reason it got as much hate as it did. Like, a lot of reasons. Pretty much the only thing this game did right was one PART of the campaign, chiefs and Cortana’s story was great. The graphics were good (even if the artstyle is questionable) but as for the rest of the game? Yeah I could write a whole essay on the shit this game did wrong
Playing Halo 4 2012: “What the hell is this? Why is everything so different? This isn’t a Halo game!” 2016: “I guess I probably judged this game too harshly. At least it’s a lot better than Halo 5!” 2020: 😢
Halo 5 had the most terrible campaign, all the things in it they could have put in smaller time and had more plot points in it. Although halo 5 had some of the best multiplayer and best forge so that meant a billion maps
Problem was i was too young to appreciate what they were trying to do, when i was a kid i thought they overdid the Cortana thing then i recently replayed halo 3, right after Johnson gets sparked he like "don't ever let her go" made chiefs and Cortana's connection so much more real. I fucking love Halo.
Halo Reach: We Stand As One! Or Die Alone. Halo CE: We're Just Getting Started Halo 2: Finishing This Fight Halo 3: It's Finished. Halo 4: More Than Just a Machine
Rocky Cadena Little does anybody know, chief is the iso dydact. That's why in Halo: CE Guilty Spark was so confused when chief said he wasn't going to activate the rings. Now Arbiter says, "For the seeds of his past are the seeds of our future". Chief is going to activate the rings. That's Why Locke is on a hunt.
As an OG Halo fan, I've been saying this game was really good since it released. The story is a little derp and basically Tron: Legacy in space, but the gameplay is SO GOOD and much better than the three Bungie-era games that came before it. Only Halo CE is better, and ODST just ties it. All the Halo 2 MLG nostalgia weebs just wanted to run around with ez-mode lock-on two-hit melee BXR bullshit that should never have been introduced into the series in the first place and that Bungie themselves had been slowly walking back every game from 2 to Reach; this game finally got rid of that crap entirely and it was therefore "bad." It's a shame, too, because out of the three 343-era games so far, Halo 4 was the only one with any real heart and soul to it.
And so, Halo 4 enters its final hours. I loved this game, and I hope others did too, it wasn't the next Halo 3 or 2.. but it was a special game. The campaign was great, and the multiplayer was decent enough in retrospect. Let's give this game a proper send-off, for the memories it offered to those who loved it.
@@Robyn-- yes for halo 4 apparently the others are down apparently the servers were set up weird so the servers for halo 4 will shut off when the Xbox 360 live service is ended
3:26 This song is fit for playing during the death of a spartan. And in a way, a spartan did die. Master chief. After all the brainwashing, after all the augmentations, after all the mindless killing, after indefinitely serving and listening to the UNSC without a second thought. His humanity is coming back, his emotions are coming back, he’s becoming John, a regular person. And for John to live, Master Chief must die.
I think you mean The real Cortona Ended in Halo 4 (Halo 1-4) . Halo 5's Cortona, It wasn't her anymore . Its been around 9 Years since we last saw the real Cortona (Halo 4)
I feel like nowadays everybody is just nostalgic, like nobody is happy with how things currently are in the gaming industry. Everybody is all like, "way back in blah blah games were actually good." I am in this crowd to though and I don't know what to do. Like in 10 years are we still going to be saying the same shit because we aren't making memories in the moment, like 2013-20?? are just gonna be known as the shit years of gaming? What is happening to us?!?!?!?!?!
The thing is that when we grow older, the more games we play, the harder it is for us to get impressed....with me for example, there hasnt been one game that I would add to my top-10 all time favorite games list from past 10 years....the only exception is Lost Odyssey from 2008 (and mainly because it managed to be such emotional experience that no other game has been for me)....then again I admit, I havent had the time to play much of the newest titles from recent years either, so maybe that will change. Anyhow games may have improved in terms of storytelling and gameplay, design, but still I feel like the most groundbreaking stuff was done in 90's and early 2000's....when I look at my top-10 list, there havent been the kind of games released in recent memory that would have awed me in the way that games like original Half-Life, Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis, Outcast, Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, original Halo did (those are all in my top-5 btw) I dont think games are shit these days, quite the opposite, there are many, MANY great games, more than I have enough time to play....its just that those truly amazing experiences are lacking imho, but again it could be that Im just harder to impress now than 10-15 years ago.
Well, there're many good games in the modern era, but there are far more that're cash grabs. If there were more games that told a good story, had good gameplay, didn't demand that the player buy a bunch DLC to finish the game, and worked upon release I would be happy. I just want to play choke people with fiber wire, I don't want to have to wait days and weeks for episodes to release! I didn't pay sixty dollars just to fly around and look at animals, plants, and rocks. Why can't I play this game, I keep falling through the poorly coded floor, I could have just bought six indie games on steam for this price. Do you see what I'm saying?
I still think this one of, if not, the most haunting theme in the halo universe. So beautiful. Kudos to Davidge & Jinnouchi for being bold and taking a new approach to the theme.
damn man, even the days after Halo 3 were amazing. and hearing this whole thing just re-affirms what a meaningful time period this was for being a kid and still having it all ahead of you.
i have the game of the year edition with the E3 cloak avatar for 360 and this music is perfection! 😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😁😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇😇I regret NOTHING i said!!!!!!!
The days of when the community was very kind people who would love to play with you. I was in a pro player clan at one point called "Evil" had some amazing players in it... I feel as if halo is dead now. It feels empty when you are in a lobby. I love halo still to this day the best series of games made, and started 7 years ago for me... Who ever played Halo Reach i love you! And if i was ever TH-cam famous i would try and bring back the community for Reach
This theme perfectly fits the game. Its not about fighting against the covenant, it's about the personal emotions of a character we love. Then halo 5 happened😢. I hope music like this is there in halo infinite. This deserves more praise
Now that we have The Banished to fight in Infinite, AND Cortana to take care of, I reckon Infinite's soundtrack will be a mix of Halo 4 and OG Halo musics
Honestly, I love this soundtrack. It was a perfect approach into a game in which it's story had little to no Halo rings in sight, so there was no need for that monk chant for the title. The game told a story that was personal and posed mental struggles for characters instead of purely physical ones, so to support this new step in direction, the soundtrack gave Chief his own new theme , which is known as the 117 theme (4:47), its a theme that exists where Halo was a thing of the past and was given more to John himself as a human being rather than the Master Chief identity, which is why Chief's theme from the original trilogy isn't present. And yet there is still snippets of Cortana's theme (3:25) which was from the original Halo trilogy, and it almost feels like the soundtrack is saying goodbye to Cortana, in which if you've played the game [spoilers], she does end up sacrificing herself and "dying" *cough* Halo 5 *cough*. Point is, this soundtrack, although not leaving a strong impression on people at first, was supporting of Marty's philosophy in game soundtracks of including emotional equity. I think I made my point clear in how much I love this underrated soundtrack, thanks for reading my jumbled thoughts.
What an explanation 👏. Sadly many halo fans only want to hear music from old trilogy, unwilling to move on from the past. So new ideas and takes on halo like the one you just explained are thrown out for nostalgia. It sucks too because the new games still respected the old
@@soapimpossible7023I know its old but imo I really wanted the old music for nostalgic reasons. But in hindsight, this ost is aged very beautifully. Not having the main chants because of the lack of rings makes a LOT of sense.
@@IToastMySocks I think both can co-exist, but unfortunately it is not allowed to happen, or people don’t want it to happen. Overall the music of halo is 👌
I remember getting this game for christmas back in 2012. This theme song was the only thing in my head for weeks at the time. This is truley a great game
Halo 4’s menu screen here may be my favorite aesthetically. Coming off the explosive climax of Halo 3 and returning to the very place where we last saw the Chief and Cortana, as so much time has passed and now the legend has resurfaced.
first time I loaded this game, when this music started playing, I was literally blown TF away. I thought to myself, here we go again! Damn I still love those memories. I hope Halo Infinite does well
ill never stop loving halo 4, i remember how excited i was when my mother came home with halo 4, i dont think i ever finished the game.. but ill never stop replaying it.
2:00 is my favorite part. Anyway, to all of those that are hating on ANY halo game...this isn't call of duty and never will be. I say that's a good thing.
+Dylan Begazo more people are buying halo because of the story behind it mastetcgiefs story and all the wise quotes from halo that's why halo 4 is one of the best games in 2015-16 all games have a story behind it and a gun shooting game Like halo having a story makes the gamer fell into the characters shoes, all games have a story so if your a halo fan before you get halo 5 Guardians you better have been paying attention to the story that led up to this or you are going to be lost in the game not knowing what is happening and whos that bad guy or good guy.
+Charles Obuseh halos story had been the most epic for combat evolved the flood everything it really was an amazing feeling to experience this game, honestly it's all about the story multiplayer is just for extra content, it was always the story and brilliant graphics. :')
I wish I was born during the early 2000s, y’all were able to experience this purely, I bet y’all are all in your 20s and 30s, here I am, 15, lucky to be able to have the spirit of a Hal fan and the understanding of what came before rather than falling to the plague of typical Gen Z BS, you guys are legends.
Us early Gen Z's don't get enough love. Anyone born between '97-2001 experienced what the 90s kids did. The 90s rubbed off on us too because the 2000s was like a continuation of that decade. It was a fun time growing up in those days. I only ever wished I was much older to fully experience it. I am proud that I can at least recall those memories. The games, music, trends, movies, the whole culture and its evolution of that era. Just like me, many others who are 22-26 years old today grew up with all of it. There isn't a better time to be a fan of video games than any time you are first exposed to them. We were there before you sure, but now we can share with you our own golden memories of a time now lost, but not forgotten.
We kinda are 💁😂 ain't nothing stopping you though from experiencing the best generation or I guess the birth of the best generation of gaming.. go forth and conquer that shit 💁
While you’re absolutely right in that we got to experience these games in full, to us, they are distant memories of great times gone by. Sure, the memories are there, but they fade over the years. Music & times from these games will last forever. Just wish it could’ve been a bit longer, that there were more like you who sees and feels the greatness in what this franchise held. There is honestly so much magic from the 2000s I miss. Rest assured halo is amongst the best of those memories …😮💨Hold onto the feeling man. Spartans never die.
Welp this music really surrounds 2020's theme well sad, Immediately thought of My passed away Grandfather, He's dead a year now, March 6 of 2019, He was a WWII Veteran, May you rest peacefully, this was actually the first game that got me thinking back to a sad time, really pictures it well, R.I.P :(
Im so sorry about the loss but cheer up my friend after all Spartans never die they get remembered for all of their courage and will to fight against evil forces may ur grandfather rest in peace 😞
+Eamon Quinn I feel like they overuse this chord too much. They use it abundantly in Halo 3, then in Reach, then 4 and I think one point in 5. It's used so much that it's lost the meaning of "Halo 3 Nostalgia" and has become "O HEI LOOK ISS A CURTAINA" kind of like Mass Effect's Vigil, used every time a character from ME1 shows up in 2 or 3. It's a good idea to reuse it for nostalgia purposes but not to the point where it loses meaning.
I remember Christmas of 2013 when I received the Xbox 360 that came with this game. Probably the most nostalgic things ever for me. I want to go back to that time so unbelievably bad.
Eh, it’s nostalgic in a way yet not at the same time because they still use a similar for some games. I think it’s the context of the video that give it nostalgia not the logo itself.
God, 8 years already? I remember getting this game and just leaving it on the menu for 5 minutes just to listen to the main menu soundtrack, although it isn't Marty I still hold this as one of my favorite soundtracks in the halo games.
I dang nearly spit out my drink reading this, 8 YEARS AGO?! I still remember playing this game with my sisters on the multiplayer, playing the campaign and absolutely sobbing during the last mission, i'm getting old :[
Nowadays I look back to my life, when I was younger playing this game, and I think of all the things that I was going to live, meeting my ex girlfriend, the woman that I loved the most. I can’t help but get touched by this song, it makes me wonder about the beautiful life that we could have lived, if things didn’t go wrong as they did, because of negative forces that where around us at that time. I feel just like master chief at the end of this game, saying goodbye to the woman of his life.
Yes, Bungie has the most iconic music in gaming, there's no doubting that. But the people who honestly give this game crap for no reason other than to fit in with the '343 bad' group piss me off to no end. If you like Marty's music more, that's fine. But you cannot listen to this and tell me that it doesn't send absolute shivers down your spine. This is the music I hear when I think halo.
Nah its not very good its too sci fi. The singing at the start is so stupid it doesnt even fit halo and it sounds like something from dark souls. Halo 4 was just a bad game. Its campaign was so bad and the multiplayer was just cod
@@clubbtech4431 I beg to differ, sure Bungies Halos were more popular and overall more loved, that doesn't mean Halo 4 was a complete failure just because they switched studios to 343. Halo 4 took some risks and in my opinion made it work, the music fits the game its self and the atmosphere it sets is a sorrow one. The sprinting mechanic is a controversial one so I'd understand if you dislike it and I'll leave it at that. The story and level design may have not been as engaging as the previous Halos to some but again, the atmosphere the music sets I believe makes up for it. So please I implore you to think beyond "343 bad so all their Halos are bad," I mean just look at Halo Infinite, 343 corrected so many of their mistakes from Halo 5 and made an amazing game so that just shows that 343 isn't just a bad studio. If this doesn't make you reconsider Halo 4 then I'll just leave you to your opinion.
@@thegreatsmol i did not say "343 bad". Halo 4 has a lacking campaign and multiplayer? Okay i agree the story was good, but whats the point in having a good story if the campaign is so boring and frustrating? I actually like the sprint feature. The thing i dont like was the fact 343 completely removed the weapon sandbox, i cant even remember one map from the game because they are all so bad.
The first time I finished Halo: CE, I remembered sitting there at the main menu, listening to the epic music and wondering what Chief was going to do next. Same with Halo 2, and 3. I'd finish the campaign with a friend. We'd celebrate our accomplishment, then he'd head to bed. But I'd stay up for a few more moments to listen to the main menu music. Halo's epic scores have always enchanted me in ways only movie franchises like Star Wars and Indiana Jones has. When I first finished Halo 4 and (SPOILERS) witnessed the death of cortana, I remember the credits rolling and being sent back to the main menu. And for the first time ever I sat through the whole score, and needless to say it brought tears to my eyes, because all the fears I had of my baby being ruined and beat up, were eradicated. Halo 4 was one of my favorite campaigns of the series, Halo 2 being my most favorite. Although the multiplayer was a bit odd and not for Halo veterans like us, the campaign was obviously meant for the most diehard fans of the series.
Kiryu 5613 Everyone's like "HALO 4 was shit cos Master Cheif was different and Cortana looks different" and they like "These song are shit". Some peeps are criticizing and saying "If you are a true halo player you'd understand why Halo 4 was crap" But I liked it
This was the last game I played with my dad, he was a old head and wasn't really into the first person shooters, he rather the mortal combat and soul caliber games but when I introduced him to halo and played it with me he absolutely loved it and was surprisingly good at it even when we were on legendary he was hitting headshots from every corner. My dad was a guy who believed in tough love but he was really happy playing this game with me, he would even just come in my room out of nowhere hearing me open up halo 4 and ask "you playing halo? Shit lemme hop on with ya" he sadly passed away a year ago and everytime I hear this music It brings tears to my eyes, the nostalgia is crazy.
Halo 1-3 exist as a set, perfectly good in their own ways with perfectly frustrating aspects as well (looking at you, Halo 2 with your goddamned start from the beginning Legendary mode). But Halo 4 acted as a bridge to a new universe in the series. It’s campaign was absolutely gorgeous, and it’s right up there in continuing the journey. My wife and I met playing the original Halo game at an XBOX lan party back in the days where you had to physically bring your XBOX to your friends house and connect them via cable if you wanted to play with more than 4 players. We dated and ended up moving in together so we could stay up late and play the campaigns again and again and again. Now we have kids who have their own favorite games, but whenever they hear the Halo theme songs, they look at us and smile.
Man I really do miss the old days of playing this game constantly with my friends and step brother such simpler times back then didn’t have to worry about grades and a job I miss this game so much
I cant tell u the amount of co op memories I have with this game. This game always feels home to me just like halo ce, I will love halo 4 forever, my favorite halo as well, and this main menu is breath taking
The biggest crime of the Master Chief collection was not keeping the original menus
Yeah.
Princess Alois Trancy why?
twin10broter
Just for the sake of nostalgia
Absolutely. The menus were well designed. Great collection, though.
Wow I can’t believe you guys are actually that blinded by nostalgia.
The vibe of the song really matched with the overall feel of the game. Like a sense of loss
Loss, desperation, fear. All amazingly expressed. Too bad this isn't on the final OST (The first song at least) unless I overlooked.
I think as an og fan this is why I initially hated Halo 4. If you look at the game subjectively and not as a Halo game, it’s actually really good. As someone who is a big fan of the Bungie art style and Marty O’Donnell’s classic Halo riffs, this game just didn’t sit right, I felt betrayed as a fan. I think also since the original trilogy was always about valor and selflessness, saving the world fearlessly from great threats, this new sense of loss and focus on the Chief as an individual rather than a godly hero made me a bit uncomfortable. But looking back 343 made a good game here, and expanded the lore, and the Didact was a really cool character. I still feel very mixed on this game, maybe if they had stuck to the classic art style and made the Promethians look a bit different it would have helped me to accept it more at the time, but Halo 4’s campaign is special in its own right. I’m glad they’re improving and listening to the fan base again since Halo 5’s disaster, and I’m really looking forward to Halo Infinite being a great game.

1-3 was power, ODST was being alone, Reach was desperation, and 4 was loss
I remember the night my brother came home with this. the game had just come out. he came through the door with Halo CE, Halo 2, Halo 3, and Halo 4 all in a bag. he looked at us (me and other siblings) and said 5 words I will never forget. "It's Halo game night guys." that was 9 years ago to the day. He's rarely around these days but.. I'll never forget those years.
(Edit: I had completely forgotten about this post. Lotta stuff was happening. In short, Seeing as I seem to have hit quite a few people with nostalgia, I would like to thank each and every person who took the time to read my post. As for the absurd amount of likes, I was, and still am shocked. All I can say is a very big thank you, and I hope you all are doing ok.)
The memories…
Ive got the same experience but he brought all the Jak and Daxter games (we never even beat the first one lol), Red Steel, and Mariokart Wii which we absolutely 100%ed

@@lucasrobin2788 at the time there were at least... 9 of us I think. My brother was in town so we all decided to hang out with him, hence Halo Game Night
“She said that to me once….. about being a machine” one of the most legendary lines from big man himself
You can check yourself it actually is Steve Downes favorite line.
I suspect that under that helmet, Chief wept for the first time in his life in that moment.
I hated that line, because he never felt that about himself. He wasn't a confused person, earlier in life he reasoned that he as a Spartan had a great purpose, this line took away from that like he had no agency up until that point.
i mean it made sense why he felt that way.@@mushroomhead86117

It only looks “good” when you retroactively compare it to what came after.
@@KizaruB true compared to 5 and infinite so far seems good but it still has its flaws
@@cliptrashbin2389 I just found the gameplay repetitive and the enemies and mission design poor. The art style has a heavy blue-tint and doesn’t look like Halo and the story just did nothing for me.
@@KizaruBYou might have not understood this masterpiece....
@@SillyGoober2024 I gave it every benefit of the doubt. I didn’t go into it wanting it to be just be another Halo 3. I went in blind, so I wouldn’t see everybody else’s criticisms of it, and could get a fresh opinion. I still came out disappointed.
Here were the main takeaways I got by the end:
-I wasn’t motivated to see the end of the story, because I knew exactly where it was gonna go
-The blinding lens flares and heavy post-processing looked ugly
-The Librarian and Mantle of Responsibility plot added needless convolution to an otherwise straightforward story
-The Didact was a very weak villain, and his final boss fight sucked
-The mission design and level design was very rudimentary and forgettable
-The Prometheans are swarming bullet sponges
-The art style looks less Halo-like and looks more like other generic sci-fi
-The game was too short
-The only thing driving me forward in the plot was seeing how humanity reacts to Chief’s return, and that was so anticlimactic
I love how all halo themes have some type of choir with them

Lol,
Even though this is a newer Halo game, I still get nostalgia from it.
Well it is nearly 4 years old
Me too man, the love of my life and I broke up just as this game came out.. menu music is so nostalgic for me now
The Son of Suns same
it's not old enough to be nostalgia, this game came out in 2012. that's only 5 years.
Dark Raven Jr you don't dictate how other people feel nostalgia
My dad and I went to the midnight release of this game. He could barely play, getting maybe 1 kill at best each game. But it didn't matter to him. He was just proud to play with me. He loved to watch how excited I would get, and how good he thought I was at the game. He loved seeing me happy, and it made him happy. I miss playing Halo with my dad. Halo 4 was our last halo together, as Halo 5 wasn't splitscreen. Sure, we would occasionally switch off, but it wasn't the same. I couldn't help him get kills, get the rocket launcher for him, or go in together to take on the team. He couldn't drive my warthog for me to be his gunner. I have heard rumors of Infinite being splitscreen, so I am hoping that we can finally play infection together again all these years later. Cant believe I was 13 when Halo 4 came out. Here I am typing this at 22.
great story man, hope ur enjoying halo infinite
HOPE YOU GUYS AR ENJOYING INFINITE TOGETHER!!!!!!!!!
We're probably the same age, I didn't have a dad to play this with or anyone beside online players but I'll never forget the Solace this game gave me In a dark time in my life.
Prime reason halo 5 is complete Ass
Oh no
I love how all Halo music reflects the corresponding game perfectly.
An artificial world older than our species, forged by an extinct extraterrestrial race with an unfathomable understanding of the Cosmos. The music is beautiful, sad, and incredibly alien sounding all at once. Masterpiece, as the rest of the series is.
I fucking love Halo.
halo was "that" game. the game that everyone knew, played and liked. now seeing halo is making a comeback i'm excited for this new generation.
Halo 4 was unique compared to the other halos. Halo 4 wanted to show its true emotions and beauty to the world. And I loved it that way. The theme song is just fantastic.
For some reason it reminds me of a song from the lord of the rings trilogy
The question is
Who is the better Master Chief
Bungie Master Chief
Or
343 Industries Master Chief
Personally, I think 343 Master Chief is better cause he's more open and talks more, can't wait to see him reunite with Arbiter
Everything in this game is so emotional and great, that it brought me up to tears when I heard it again. Good old days... ;)
The first 2 minutes are nostalgic, the next 12 make you feel like you missed something great
Yall never sat AFK at the menu waiting for your friends to get on after school/work?
the next 12 just reminds me of my dad trying to find the batteries for my controller so we could play together
I would honestly just sit and listen to this just to relax
Imagine, we’re all gonna be 50 to 80 years old still looking up the same song lol Can’t wait
I damn know right?
Save copies. Nothing lasts forever on TH-cam.

Still gives goosebumps I want this played at my funeral no lie

I believed in this game. It had heart. And it believed in a future.
_It stood for something._
yes, it always does. it's the best game ever is.
4 was my first halo, I have since played all of the others save for wars, wars 2, and spartan strike. I acknowledge this game isn't the best but it's still good.

I've literally thought the same exact sentiment about my teenage and early 20's. As far as Halo 4, I started playing that in 2019. Still such a nostalgic game! My bros and I built some of the best maps of any game. So epic! But yeah, when 64 came out and when I first played Ocarina and Smash brothers, and Goldeneye and Perfect Dark and all the epic movies of the late 90's and early 2000's like Matrix and Gattaca and the Arnold movies, all the 90's dance music and pop, and playing Yu-gi-Oh and Pokemon every Saturday at Brad's Comic store and playing flashlight tag on Pebble Beach. The excitement when you are young is so fresh and amazing!
No matter what anyone feels, we can't stop the flow of time. One day Jesus will return and the world will be new again and for those who believe they will experience the greatest paradise! What will we remember of this life? I wonder. But one thing I do know is I want everybody to be a passenger on the train of eternity. Blessings in Christ Jesus!

I remember getting this game back in 2012 when it first came out. Just graduated high school not too long before that, and it was a transitional period, as it was for most. The next gen console rumors started to spread as they were just over the horizon. This was one of the last games I ever got for my 360, and boy, talk about going out with a bang.
Once I finished the campaign, I sat at the main menu for who knows how long.. then this part of the theme hit. It gave me a nostalgic feeling, not just for the series up to that point, but my whole grade school career, all the memories I made with old friends, and an ode to the journey of life that is still yet ahead. Not to mention this also evoked the end of one of the best console generations. Couldn't help but shed a tear.
Decided to look this up and listen to it again, and it still evokes those same powerful emotions, 6 years later. What a masterpiece. I put the end of this game up there with Titanfall 2, as far as emotional impact for me in an FPS.
Long live the Chief. 🖖
This comment hit me.
I can absolutely relate to you. I was unexpectedly shoved down memory lane listening to this; it reminded me of a simpler time just after high school playing this with my sister before I went off to college and had life go awry in all sorts of ways.
The emotional journey that the Chief goes on in this story, with the irony of being an emotionless human paired with an increasingly emotionally sensitive AI, really resonated with me and my own journey through poor mental health, where being numb, cold and robotic was seemingly the only refuge.
This soundtrack just kicked my ass listening to it again lol
If you have the game, a headset and console, hit me up man.
Would be nice to explore that world again.
Sorry to be that person but I'm not sugar coating it. This piece of crap song doesnt belong in halo. This does NOT sound anything like a halo game. This shit sounds like Indians about to fuck... none of this sounds like a halo game. I really hated halo 4. This game doesnt deserve the halo name, this is basically a mass effect game, just look at it and listen. The music never gave me a halo feeling and the damn armor make way too much box noises. That's what it literally sounds like.....a whole bunch of boxes tumbling down the stairs. Everything about this game is nothing like halo. The guns sound nothing like they once did. The armor doesnt look anything like they once were. Even the vehicles were shit.
Long live chief.
Halo 4 is such an underrated game. While you were graduating high school, I was in 4th grade and had to beg my parents for this game. They were worried about violence but i was allowed to get it eventually. I played the shit out of it, it was my first game.
Long live chief how about RIP 1-4 halo? Those were the best ones until the game that spit in my face halo 5 shame on Microsoft
Listen, Halo 1-3 theme was about fighting a huge war against the Covenant. But, Halo 4 is a emotional story the original theme would not fit the emotional story.
God has joined the lobby.
vr - yea the og halo theme was fit for a part of a series where halo didn’t focus on characters and instead on the main plot which was just mostly master chief being his badass self. Halo 4 really did take another turn. Chief is trying to figure out what his purpose is. He doesn’t know wether he’s a machine or a man. It’s a more deep and sadder story that needs its own theme.
I call this theme ‘Requiem for Reach’.
It's the beginning of the Reclamation...not the Covenant one but Humanity Reclamation of the Mantle that's the story 343 is trying to tell. Humanity reclaiming what the forerunners lost
Halo 3 have some emotional melodies as well but I get what you mean if they wanted something different.

Halo 4 was first Halo that I owned personally. I bought it in 2014 - my parents waren't very happy about that, but it was my birthsday, so they let me spend my money in the way I wanted. I was already quite experienced with Halo, played a lot of 3 and Reach around 2010-2013 with my friends (ah, good old days of 4 player splitscreen), before I got my own Xbox 360 in 2013, shortly after moving away with family. Needs to be said, that I had two younger sisters, that never had been intersted in Halo series, but, to my suprised, clever bastards really picked it up.
Now it's almost five years later. We spend countless hours in Halo 4, and even now we play from time to time, since we bought Xbox One and Halo MCC. We still play Husky Raid, Infection or Forge from time to time, but it is not the same as it was back in 2015-2016. I was in middle school, away from home, and we only got to play at the weekends, when I usually came back home. And this... just floods the memories. How I sat there, in my room, waiting for my sisters to came here and whoop my ass in 2v1. I could listen to whole 20 mins of main menu soundtrack, waiting for them to finally come. And then, we would play for hours, having infinite amounts of fun, and then go outdoors to play with our beloved dogs. Much simpler, better times.
Now I sit there, heartbroken, even more far away from home. I'm in college, mainly alone and depressed, one of my sisters soon is starting middle school herself, and one of two adorable dogs died yesterday.
I just want those beatiful days back again.
What a history.
Also,what a coincidence,I also bought Halo 4 at 2014,it came alongside my Xbox 360,Gears of War 3 and Kinect Adventures.
I still remember the day and exact time(December 5,14h:34min,2014, Brasilia's Time Zone.),daddy coming with a box. A white box.

4 definitely isn't the greatest halo, but I believe it doesn't deserve all the hate it gets
agreed
The biggest critique common to Halo's storytelling was that it was all set pieces and no characters.
Halo 4 proved Halo has a heart.
I will forever praise this game for that.
@@Jerorawr_XD real
There's definitely a lot to critique and a lot that went wrong imo. My biggest issues were the changes to the way Covenant weapons worked (they burn through ammo way too fast) and how quickly dropped weapons despawn. And also the redesign of the Covenant species was horrible. It made them all uglier (and not in a good way). A lot of people hated the new Forerunner lore but I actually think its interesting and mostly ok. I don't think it was presented and explained very well though. I feel like there's an odd loop where you have to have read the Greg Bear trilogy of Forerunner books to understand Halo 4, but you have to have played Halo 4 to understand the Forerunner books too.
I liked halo 4, but there’s a reason it got as much hate as it did. Like, a lot of reasons. Pretty much the only thing this game did right was one PART of the campaign, chiefs and Cortana’s story was great. The graphics were good (even if the artstyle is questionable) but as for the rest of the game? Yeah I could write a whole essay on the shit this game did wrong

2016: “I guess I probably judged this game too harshly. At least it’s a lot better than Halo 5!”
2020: 😢
My thoughts exactly..
Halo
♾ is coming
CozyJohn It’s a spiritual reboot
ney bro it wasn't halo anymore already, they added good things like this song, besides it wasn't really halo anymore, not even muti splitscreen, sad
Halo 5 had the most terrible campaign, all the things in it they could have put in smaller time and had more plot points in it. Although halo 5 had some of the best multiplayer and best forge so that meant a billion maps
growing up is knowing you judged this game too much
Problem was i was too young to appreciate what they were trying to do, when i was a kid i thought they overdid the Cortana thing then i recently replayed halo 3, right after Johnson gets sparked he like "don't ever let her go" made chiefs and Cortana's connection so much more real. I fucking love Halo.
I will never forgive that gravity hammer sound change
Crazy, I loved this game when it released. The only problem I had was forge. No one swayed my opinion about this game like most games.

James Smith the song?
This brings tears to my eyes halo had been there for us through life's ups and down. Especially when I lost my brother in 2012 😢 . Great music
I lost my uncle after Halo 4 came out, we were only able to play for 2 weeks... I understand that feeling

Who's here in 2019 thinking about the happy memories of this wonderful game
Me,I still get a chill up my spine as I think of the great memories that were made with this game and the nostalgia that came with it.
Halo was/is amazing.
You mean halo reach halo 4s alright
I just bought it again. Had to play it
Really, i was remember on time that i was happiness, now i grow up and this happinnes never more back... time that i was happy but i don't knew.
Halo Reach: We Stand As One! Or Die Alone.
Halo CE: We're Just Getting Started
Halo 2: Finishing This Fight
Halo 3: It's Finished.

Rocky Cadena Halo 5: Hunt Or Be Hunted
Rocky Cadena Little does anybody know, chief is the iso dydact. That's why in Halo: CE Guilty Spark was so confused when chief said he wasn't going to activate the rings. Now Arbiter says, "For the seeds of his past are the seeds of our future". Chief is going to activate the rings. That's Why Locke is on a hunt.
Halen Jolley Chief already did that. Did you play Halo 3?
Sorry my mistake, not activate the rings. He's going to get rid of everything in order to get rid of the flood. That was the isodidact's purpose.
Halen Jolley Well that sounds pretty stupid. The probability of me buying Halo 5 went from 0% to -100%.
This game was a lot better than people gave it credit for. I remember originally hearing that main theme, god damn what a simpler time it was.
When I heard about it I was such a cynic, but man, when I played it-I love this game.
This game is shit compared to the bungie halos
Celtin Hawkins it had more story of chief and cortana’s relationship. Different tone so definitely not as action packed, definitely not shit.
@@s2kceltin Fucking weeb
As an OG Halo fan, I've been saying this game was really good since it released. The story is a little derp and basically Tron: Legacy in space, but the gameplay is SO GOOD and much better than the three Bungie-era games that came before it. Only Halo CE is better, and ODST just ties it. All the Halo 2 MLG nostalgia weebs just wanted to run around with ez-mode lock-on two-hit melee BXR bullshit that should never have been introduced into the series in the first place and that Bungie themselves had been slowly walking back every game from 2 to Reach; this game finally got rid of that crap entirely and it was therefore "bad." It's a shame, too, because out of the three 343-era games so far, Halo 4 was the only one with any real heart and soul to it.
And so, Halo 4 enters its final hours.
I loved this game, and I hope others did too, it wasn't the next Halo 3 or 2.. but it was a special game. The campaign was great, and the multiplayer was decent enough in retrospect. Let's give this game a proper send-off, for the memories it offered to those who loved it.
I agree, really fun game
So uh.. servers are still up..?
@@Robyn-- yes for halo 4 apparently the others are down apparently the servers were set up weird so the servers for halo 4 will shut off when the Xbox 360 live service is ended
it really is.. truly.
😭 man
3:26
This song is fit for playing during the death of a spartan. And in a way, a spartan did die. Master chief. After all the brainwashing, after all the augmentations, after all the mindless killing, after indefinitely serving and listening to the UNSC without a second thought. His humanity is coming back, his emotions are coming back, he’s becoming John, a regular person. And for John to live, Master Chief must die.
A spartan in all of us died that day rest in spaghetti don’t you forgetti
Damn that's deep
Rest in spaghetti don’t you forgetti the furry war 3 finish awaits
“She said that to me once, about being a machine.”
it’s the slowest notes of one of halo 3’s themes
"Welcome home, John..."
2012 - 2022
Still hurts...
I think you mean The real Cortona Ended in Halo 4 (Halo 1-4) . Halo 5's Cortona, It wasn't her anymore . Its been around 9 Years since we last saw the real Cortona (Halo 4)
@@soap7828 it is so sad 😭 that she died in the game around when I was still a baby
bro..
yeah I just started crying because she died. and that was a very emotional ending
I feel like nowadays everybody is just nostalgic, like nobody is happy with how things currently are in the gaming industry. Everybody is all like, "way back in blah blah games were actually good." I am in this crowd to though and I don't know what to do. Like in 10 years are we still going to be saying the same shit because we aren't making memories in the moment, like 2013-20?? are just gonna be known as the shit years of gaming? What is happening to us?!?!?!?!?!
Finally someone who agrees with me.
The thing is that when we grow older, the more games we play, the harder it is for us to get impressed....with me for example, there hasnt been one game that I would add to my top-10 all time favorite games list from past 10 years....the only exception is Lost Odyssey from 2008 (and mainly because it managed to be such emotional experience that no other game has been for me)....then again I admit, I havent had the time to play much of the newest titles from recent years either, so maybe that will change.
Anyhow games may have improved in terms of storytelling and gameplay, design, but still I feel like the most groundbreaking stuff was done in 90's and early 2000's....when I look at my top-10 list, there havent been the kind of games released in recent memory that would have awed me in the way that games like original Half-Life, Operation Flashpoint: Cold War Crisis, Outcast, Warcraft III: Reign of Chaos, original Halo did (those are all in my top-5 btw)
I dont think games are shit these days, quite the opposite, there are many, MANY great games, more than I have enough time to play....its just that those truly amazing experiences are lacking imho, but again it could be that Im just harder to impress now than 10-15 years ago.
All of my favorite games are from the late 2000's. The last game that awed me was probably GTA V or Skyrim.
it's called in game purchases and pay to win bs
Well, there're many good games in the modern era, but there are far more that're cash grabs. If there were more games that told a good story, had good gameplay, didn't demand that the player buy a bunch DLC to finish the game, and worked upon release I would be happy.
I just want to play choke people with fiber wire, I don't want to have to wait days and weeks for episodes to release!
I didn't pay sixty dollars just to fly around and look at animals, plants, and rocks.
Why can't I play this game, I keep falling through the poorly coded floor, I could have just bought six indie games on steam for this price.
Do you see what I'm saying?
Today is the 10th anniversary, loved Halo 4
I still think this one of, if not, the most haunting theme in the halo universe. So beautiful. Kudos to Davidge & Jinnouchi for being bold and taking a new approach to the theme.
this music gives me sadness, chills, and was a true ending to our faithful companion, Cortana. Old Cortana, you will be missed! :(
2:20 literally sounds like
"Earth, over 2 billion years, striving land and ferocious seas, land of war and peace, your destination has arrived"
I wouldn't be suprised
Your pfp........
damn man, even the days after Halo 3 were amazing. and hearing this whole thing just re-affirms what a meaningful time period this was for being a kid and still having it all ahead of you.
yes. I remember those days bro
This game is underrated, and the menu music is flawless.

@@SB992REBORNimo the cloak design of chief was cool af, I’m kinda pissed we never saw that in Halo 5. God that game was awful though..
Same. I actually genuinely liked Halo 4. Despite some levels feeling a bit repetitive, it still wasn't a bad game.💯
The days of when the community was very kind people who would love to play with you. I was in a pro player clan at one point called "Evil" had some amazing players in it... I feel as if halo is dead now. It feels empty when you are in a lobby. I love halo still to this day the best series of games made, and started 7 years ago for me...
Who ever played Halo Reach i love you! And if i was ever TH-cam famous i would try and bring back the community for Reach
BRAD LYON Reach has fallen, but will rise once again, someday.....

Man i love the halo series btw ive played em all
well even though your comment may be old, just look at Halo Infinite now in 2018.
Halo will never die it will live for ever or at least I'll still play it
This theme perfectly fits the game. Its not about fighting against the covenant, it's about the personal emotions of a character we love. Then halo 5 happened😢. I hope music like this is there in halo infinite. This deserves more praise
did you heard Halo Infinite musics?
Now that we have The Banished to fight in Infinite, AND Cortana to take care of, I reckon Infinite's soundtrack will be a mix of Halo 4 and OG Halo musics
I would love this track to be in infinite
@Shen Cannon Quack
@@sabianmateinnit Damn, you were right
Honestly, I love this soundtrack. It was a perfect approach into a game in which it's story had little to no Halo rings in sight, so there was no need for that monk chant for the title. The game told a story that was personal and posed mental struggles for characters instead of purely physical ones, so to support this new step in direction, the soundtrack gave Chief his own new theme , which is known as the 117 theme (4:47), its a theme that exists where Halo was a thing of the past and was given more to John himself as a human being rather than the Master Chief identity, which is why Chief's theme from the original trilogy isn't present. And yet there is still snippets of Cortana's theme (3:25) which was from the original Halo trilogy, and it almost feels like the soundtrack is saying goodbye to Cortana, in which if you've played the game [spoilers], she does end up sacrificing herself and "dying" *cough* Halo 5 *cough*.
Point is, this soundtrack, although not leaving a strong impression on people at first, was supporting of Marty's philosophy in game soundtracks of including emotional equity. I think I made my point clear in how much I love this underrated soundtrack, thanks for reading my jumbled thoughts.
What an explanation 👏. Sadly many halo fans only want to hear music from old trilogy, unwilling to move on from the past. So new ideas and takes on halo like the one you just explained are thrown out for nostalgia. It sucks too because the new games still respected the old
@@soapimpossible7023I know its old but imo I really wanted the old music for nostalgic reasons. But in hindsight, this ost is aged very beautifully. Not having the main chants because of the lack of rings makes a LOT of sense.
@@IToastMySocks I think both can co-exist, but unfortunately it is not allowed to happen, or people don’t want it to happen. Overall the music of halo is 👌
I remember getting this game for christmas back in 2012. This theme song was the only thing in my head for weeks at the time. This is truley a great game
Mateo Sanchez Exactly, When I bought my first Xbox 360 back in 2012 I always admire this song and it was stuck in my head for a long ass time.

@@TDSGodly to make things more depressing, the servers for all the halo games on 360 are going down @ the end of this year.
Halo 4’s menu screen here may be my favorite aesthetically. Coming off the explosive climax of Halo 3 and returning to the very place where we last saw the Chief and Cortana, as so much time has passed and now the legend has resurfaced.
first time I loaded this game, when this music started playing, I was literally blown TF away. I thought to myself, here we go again!

I wish I was born during the early 2000s, y’all were able to experience this purely, I bet y’all are all in your 20s and 30s, here I am, 15, lucky to be able to have the spirit of a Hal fan and the understanding of what came before rather than falling to the plague of typical Gen Z BS, you guys are legends.
Us early Gen Z's don't get enough love. Anyone born between '97-2001 experienced what the 90s kids did. The 90s rubbed off on us too because the 2000s was like a continuation of that decade. It was a fun time growing up in those days. I only ever wished I was much older to fully experience it. I am proud that I can at least recall those memories. The games, music, trends, movies, the whole culture and its evolution of that era. Just like me, many others who are 22-26 years old today grew up with all of it. There isn't a better time to be a fan of video games than any time you are first exposed to them. We were there before you sure, but now we can share with you our own golden memories of a time now lost, but not forgotten.
We kinda are 💁😂 ain't nothing stopping you though from experiencing the best generation or I guess the birth of the best generation of gaming.. go forth and conquer that shit 💁
While you’re absolutely right in that we got to experience these games in full, to us, they are distant memories of great times gone by. Sure, the memories are there, but they fade over the years. Music & times from these games will last forever. Just wish it could’ve been a bit longer, that there were more like you who sees and feels the greatness in what this franchise held. There is honestly so much magic from the 2000s I miss. Rest assured halo is amongst the best of those memories …😮💨Hold onto the feeling man. Spartans never die.
I was born in 2006 so I know alot about the 2000s stuff.
Born 1997 - you should have seen the 2007 era of Halo. The absolute peak, the absolute king of gaming. The franchise has never topped itself since.
Welp this music really surrounds 2020's theme well sad, Immediately thought of My passed away Grandfather, He's dead a year now, March 6 of 2019, He was a WWII Veteran, May you rest peacefully, this was actually the first game that got me thinking back to a sad time, really pictures it well, R.I.P :(
Dude... I hope you are okay bro
RIP to your grandfather
It’s sad to see someone go.... That was the same with my Uncle Clay. He was 96 when he died in 2014, I believed. He survived the dust bowl,
Im so sorry about the loss but cheer up my friend after all Spartans never die they get remembered for all of their courage and will to fight against evil forces may ur grandfather rest in peace 😞
Living Legend. May your Grandfathers Soul be blessed and prasied like 117's.

+Eamon Quinn The theme...the feels.....too much..
+Eamon Quinn why?
"I know you; your past, your future"
+Eamon Quinn I feel like they overuse this chord too much. They use it abundantly in Halo 3, then in Reach, then 4 and I think one point in 5. It's used so much that it's lost the meaning of "Halo 3 Nostalgia" and has become "O HEI LOOK ISS A CURTAINA" kind of like Mass Effect's Vigil, used every time a character from ME1 shows up in 2 or 3. It's a good idea to reuse it for nostalgia purposes but not to the point where it loses meaning.
+Eamon Quinn That gets me to (x
I remember Christmas of 2013 when I received the Xbox 360 that came with this game. Probably the most nostalgic things ever for me. I want to go back to that time so unbelievably bad.
7:52 "It was my job to keep you alive."
Is it just me or is the Microsoft studios noise the most nostalgic part?
Oddly, yes, and my first ever experience of that was in Forza Horizon 2 where at the time half the game felt like the space age compared to the Wii
YES THE LOGO SOUNDS GAVE ME CHILLS BC OF HOW NOSTALGIC IT WAS
Eh, it’s nostalgic in a way yet not at the same time because they still use a similar for some games. I think it’s the context of the video that give it nostalgia not the logo itself.
I played this game with my dad when I was little... Hearing this music brought back memories i forgot I had.

God, 8 years already? I remember getting this game and just leaving it on the menu for 5 minutes just to listen to the main menu soundtrack, although it isn't Marty I still hold this as one of my favorite soundtracks in the halo games.
What hooked me into halo was this menu screen I don’t regret anything
I dang nearly spit out my drink reading this, 8 YEARS AGO?! I still remember playing this game with my sisters on the multiplayer, playing the campaign and absolutely sobbing during the last mission, i'm getting old :[
Same here, and halo in general has been around for 20 years now which is crazy
Nowadays I look back to my life, when I was younger playing this game, and I think of all the things that I was going to live, meeting my ex girlfriend, the woman that I loved the most. I can’t help but get touched by this song, it makes me wonder about the beautiful life that we could have lived, if things didn’t go wrong as they did, because of negative forces that where around us at that time. I feel just like master chief at the end of this game, saying goodbye to the woman of his life.

Yes, Bungie has the most iconic music in gaming, there's no doubting that. But the people who honestly give this game crap for no reason other than to fit in with the '343 bad' group piss me off to no end. If you like Marty's music more, that's fine. But you cannot listen to this and tell me that it doesn't send absolute shivers down your spine. This is the music I hear when I think halo.
Nah its not very good its too sci fi. The singing at the start is so stupid it doesnt even fit halo and it sounds like something from dark souls. Halo 4 was just a bad game. Its campaign was so bad and the multiplayer was just cod
@@clubbtech4431 Any opposing opinions with substance, or are you just gonna keep on with the “Halo 4 bad” narrative?
@@Enneamorph but its a bad game?
@@clubbtech4431 I beg to differ, sure Bungies Halos were more popular and overall more loved, that doesn't mean Halo 4 was a complete failure just because they switched studios to 343. Halo 4 took some risks and in my opinion made it work, the music fits the game its self and the atmosphere it sets is a sorrow one. The sprinting mechanic is a controversial one so I'd understand if you dislike it and I'll leave it at that. The story and level design may have not been as engaging as the previous Halos to some but again, the atmosphere the music sets I believe makes up for it. So please I implore you to think beyond "343 bad so all their Halos are bad," I mean just look at Halo Infinite, 343 corrected so many of their mistakes from Halo 5 and made an amazing game so that just shows that 343 isn't just a bad studio. If this doesn't make you reconsider Halo 4 then I'll just leave you to your opinion.
@@thegreatsmol i did not say "343 bad". Halo 4 has a lacking campaign and multiplayer? Okay i agree the story was good, but whats the point in having a good story if the campaign is so boring and frustrating? I actually like the sprint feature. The thing i dont like was the fact 343 completely removed the weapon sandbox, i cant even remember one map from the game because they are all so bad.
The first time I finished Halo: CE, I remembered sitting there at the main menu, listening to the epic music and wondering what Chief was going to do next. Same with Halo 2, and 3. I'd finish the campaign with a friend. We'd celebrate our accomplishment, then he'd head to bed. But I'd stay up for a few more moments to listen to the main menu music. Halo's epic scores have always enchanted me in ways only movie franchises like Star Wars and Indiana Jones has.
When I first finished Halo 4 and (SPOILERS) witnessed the death of cortana, I remember the credits rolling and being sent back to the main menu. And for the first time ever I sat through the whole score, and needless to say it brought tears to my eyes, because all the fears I had of my baby being ruined and beat up, were eradicated. Halo 4 was one of my favorite campaigns of the series, Halo 2 being my most favorite.
Although the multiplayer was a bit odd and not for Halo veterans like us, the campaign was obviously meant for the most diehard fans of the series.
True halo fans...
SR Bacca But apparently you have to hate Halo 4 to be a true fan :(
Below Zero what kind of bull shit is that
Kiryu 5613 Everyone's like "HALO 4 was shit cos Master Cheif was different and Cortana looks different" and they like "These song are shit". Some peeps are criticizing and saying "If you are a true halo player you'd understand why Halo 4 was crap" But I liked it
This is it chief
This was the last game I played with my dad, he was a old head and wasn't really into the first person shooters, he rather the mortal combat and soul caliber games but when I introduced him to halo and played it with me he absolutely loved it and was surprisingly good at it even when we were on legendary he was hitting headshots from every corner. My dad was a guy who believed in tough love but he was really happy playing this game with me, he would even just come in my room out of nowhere hearing me open up halo 4 and ask "you playing halo? Shit lemme hop on with ya" he sadly passed away a year ago and everytime I hear this music It brings tears to my eyes, the nostalgia is crazy.

While quality may vary from game to game, no one can deny that for every single game the music has been INCREDIBLE!!!
True, however 343 is the under dogs for soundtracks. Bungie=soundtrack G0DS

Halo 1-3 exist as a set, perfectly good in their own ways with perfectly frustrating aspects as well (looking at you, Halo 2 with your goddamned start from the beginning Legendary mode). But Halo 4 acted as a bridge to a new universe in the series. It’s campaign was absolutely gorgeous, and it’s right up there in continuing the journey.
My wife and I met playing the original Halo game at an XBOX lan party back in the days where you had to physically bring your XBOX to your friends house and connect them via cable if you wanted to play with more than 4 players. We dated and ended up moving in together so we could stay up late and play the campaigns again and again and again. Now we have kids who have their own favorite games, but whenever they hear the Halo theme songs, they look at us and smile.
Wow that's so cute
This is my entire childhood.
So glad people are starting to respect it, even though it should've got the respect way back.
