MLG Fox I can see it now... purple strobelights elites sitting at the bar drinking, grunts dancing like no tomorrow, brutes in a booth arm wrestling, jackals around back doing crack meth or something all whilst this song plays. (hunters were at the chiropractor something wrong with there back)
It was meant to depict a "dance" (=combat) with the Covenant, the name being further amplified in meaning by the fluid nature of the gameplay in the game. I feel like it romanticised combat, but not in a "war is so great way". The game did a good jov at depicting the horrors of fighting a war where the other side is hellbent on your genocide (not as much as I'd like to, the books were stellar in that regard but hey ho). This song makes me think of fighting the Covenant on their own ground, but winning by "dancing" better. It's not just about firepower.
After all these years, I'm still able to get competitive matches. Check my channel, first Tourny match already uploaded. If you love the OG original halo check it out. When a game is great, it's great. I don't see anyone putting chess down.
i figured that out on the silent cartographer when i was playing on legendary and got an achievement for discovering that it. i was like wow OP halo 1 Magnums for the win XD
Yup, I never get bored replaying halo ce's campaign. I replay it with different difficulties which makes it more fun. Something that I still do till now
Halo: Combat Evolved will always be my favorite Halo. The late hours me and my dad would spend playing this game even on work or school nights. Thanks dad for introducing me to one of the greatest games ever made.
I remember in played Assault on the Control Room for the first time in a few years today, and hearing this start playing as the door started to rise, and I thought "this Is catchy. Good job Bungie" and then I see the reason why it started playing. There was an army on the other side that I completely forgot about, And I thought to myself "oh. That's why."
Martin O'Donnell and Alexander Seropian should make a track together because I can't help but feel Martin was inspired by the track "Leela" when he composed "Covenant Dance".
If it will come out on PC, then i will agree with you. Until then... Nah, i am not buying crappy console. And don't forget, in Halo Anniversary they've fucked up this phenominal theme and made it less memoriable.
Whenever I listen to the soundtrack from one of the Halo games I think "Ok this Halo game had the best soundtrack", but then I listen to the soundtrack from another Halo game and think "actually, this one is the best." Point is, I can't choose.
Just walking in through the door... Hearing gun shots from the room ahead, walking into the room and seeing combat forms flying through the air as grunts and elites try their best to fight off the parasite. One of the best feelings ever, i'd often just stand there and watch the parasite and covenant battle it out.
To me I enjoyed that most of all the diversity of planning how and when to attack or not at all was the best feeling as war happens right in front of your eyes
This inception of Halo, when you actually were given an assignment and had to travel there and explore yourself. When you were told to go into the library and find the index and you actually explored your way to where you thought it'd be and it was. Where covenant and flood actually would ambush you, where you'd run across the snow plains to help marines and find out where to go from there. Where you'd scan the snow and distance and search for enemy scouts, pick them off one by one. Where ammo and weapon choice made a big difference and you had to pay attention to your ammo. CE where exploration was heading in a good direction. Where it felt like an Open world game even though it wasn't. Where traveling to destinations and planning things out and observing were a big deal. Those big deals right there should have been nourished not compromised. Where there were time limits on the last mission, Time limits! Where the story was strongly engraved into what you were seeing before your eyes and it felt more rich in ""color"". You, the gamer was compelled to dream, to dream of what Halo CE could mature into. A game where the marines helped you out more and were more capable. Where you traveled to more human built and alien built places. A human space ship shipyard for example. travel onto more and more covenant ships to blow them up. To assault and take command of more covenant ships. To get witty in your exploration of forerunner devices and tech. To be able to take access ammo and put it somewhere, like to be able to take access ammo and store it in your warthog or something. To have the ability to take helmet recordings and dog tags. To be able to use those devices that open forerunner doors. Imagine if all these things were standard for every halo game since? Essentially, these standards remained permanent additions to the halo game universe instead of removed and left in the past.

I noticed it plays for as long as you're in that particular part of the level. So if you're garbage at the game like me and it takes forever to get past 1 set of enemies, this song plays for a while XD
Everytime I hear it I always think of that section where you and the squad are heading down that big corridor to the locked door on the truth and reconciliation
Remember hearing this and combining it with Plasma Grenades... and those HUGE chain explosions. You feel like a ninja every time you do that. That was overkill, yet it happened so often it made the game pyro-simulator to me. Easy mode was hilarious. But on Legendary,... man I enjoyed dying, but grenades would bounce everywhere; a plasma grenade would explode shooting another plasma grenade out of 3-5 towards you and then see it stick to you; it was adrenaline-laced insanity! ...the heart attacks... ... breathe** ... WORTH IT.
Give it a break, how many years has it been? Give 343 a chance to find a door. Name me a company that took on a new franchise previously made by a more reputable company and got it right the first time.
We can so still reminisce on the past as a individual and still enjoy the game as it was before, but as a societal whole of counting on the general culture aspect of others to replicate from that time period is what fails to bring the experience full circle.
I think this song is the most genius song on the whole game series. Keep in mind all im saying here, is strictly interpretation, and opinions This song, in every other level in CE, is only ever played when there is a battle going on between the Flood and the Covenant (there are other pieces that play instead when there is a flood covenant battle) except for the ending of Mission 5 Assault on the Control Room. Why i find that very interesting is that they use this song to foreshadow the Flood. The Mission 5 end cutscene, where Cortana is all Frantic, is because of the song. Now I believe, that the Covenant knew about the Flood on the ring way before Chief and Cortana did. It's why i believe there was such a dense presence of covenant forces just before the Control room. I believe, that the covenant expected the flood to show up at the control room area, and i believe there defences would have worked if Chief didn't pummel his way through. I believe the covenant at the end of mission 5, were in a way battleing the Flood, in a preventive way, rather than simply a battlefield style of battle, thus i believe why they put the song right there at the end. I think the way the covenant was set up through the entirety of mission 5 was to defend against the flood, more so than the Unsc. As the Unsc were getting trampled in that area. With the exception of chief. Possible could have defeated chief if it weren't for the aireal assault, from underground (still my favorite moment in the game) But keep in mind this nothing more than me speculating more than anything. The devs could have simply thought "this song would be fun here"
This is the stuff that makes the Shangheli nod their heads on-drum and daydream of their homeworld as they all get together in a huge slav trap and bend-squat to the beat. Slapper.
When you come out onto the two platforms between doors in Two Betrayals and this is playing... The covenant and flood at each other's throats and you have to make it through. A very memorable moment for me.
IDK if Halo CE is objectively the best Halo, but for those of us who were the OG players when it was released will forever love it more than the others because of the nostalgia of it, and the music was just as much a part of that experience than the gameplay.
When I talk about Halo, people always tell me to forget about the past and hope for the future. I then reply with "Eat shit. Halo 5 is the biggest bicockdigroil piece of bloatfly larva I've ever played." >:(
But I've learned to respect other people's opinions, fortunately. Kudos to you if you actually enjoy playing that crock-o'-shit you call a Halo game. I don't see any way that would even be possible for one like me. :/
weird how history repeats itself. i remember how reach was 'the worst halo ever', and now people are begging for another game like it and drowning in nostalgia for how much of an awesome game it was. exactly the same is happening for halo 4 with people reforming their opinion on its storyline; even though a couple of years ago it was given the title of 'worst halo game' as per every new title. nostalgia always blinds players' perspective on a title.
That's true, but as someone who liked 4 and didn't feel Reach did bad on it's multiplayer as people claim, Halo 5 still feels like absolute shit in its single player component and is only slightly redeemed in its multiplayer aspect.
Every Halo game has incredible music. It’s one of the defining things about the series. I’ll never forget hearing that Gregorian chanting for the first time on the Halo 3 menu. I’m 28 now and I’m still a huge fan of Halo, always will be. It’s the series alone that has kept me with Microsoft. I absolutely can not wait for Halo Infinite!
@@atvbass10 yeah bro I can agree. I thought the campaign was beautiful. Maybe it’s just me but i definitely had some halo vibes from the previous games.
I only remember this song from one moment. Round a corner after fighting covenant in a narrow corridor heading to the control room, you're about to head up the ramp and suddenly you hear assault rifle fire, then a shotgun, then the elite ahead is attacked and the Flood forms attacking him pounce on screen as well and likely push him back. Either at that point you just slowly backed up and let the fight happen, or you reloaded your assault rifle and rushed in to make sure nobody stole your kills. XD
Every time I play Halo I picture me and my generation having the time of our lives and now since I'm 20 and seeing the choices and loss of innocence I get a nostalgia feeling of happiness harmony and sadness all at once I miss my childhood and my innocence long live Halo
@@Willpowerdestruction what exile said, I was also born 2000, played the game (very badly, on easy mode) when I was 2. I loved the colors and the sounds so much, especially the alien blood colors so I kept beating them after they died and then I wasn't allowed to play it after that until 3rd grade, with some sneaky playing imbetween lol. I think my fondest moment, the most nostalgic and senory loaded moment, was during control room when you crossed one of the bridges for the first time and Pale Horse started playing.
"The Covenant battle net is in chaos.... they've sent in a strike team to eliminate the Flood and repair the cruiser. I've found Captain Keys... he's Alive!!"
Pure memories of a wonderful yet ignorant lifestyle. A time before school where we'd be at home all day. When mom went to bed, we watched dad play halo on the big TV until he told us to go to bed. Remembering the music and scenery of the game. Halo CE was indeed a unique game with it's own atmosphere that no other game could portray the same, just like every other individual halo sequel. Only that some music has been repeated through sequels that sound no different from the previous game. However, this song is completely on it's own. This song is a song only Halo CE can portray. Absolutely outstanding music. Beautiful blue filtered and bloomy atmosphere as a long grey alien planet-like ring peered upon the slightly cloudy but overall clear star filled sky, stretching to one side to another. Blue and green glowing balls fly through the scenery as you walk while glowing green and blue shields move and glow in the distance all in between dark brown trees, mountains, and rocks. The bullets go pew pew. brown and grey marines with green eye pieces sprint by shooting yellow bullets at the aliens while you notice your own grey round gun swaying side to side to the beat of the music as you walk. The aliens scream and yell while elites go "Wort wort wort." Sometimes pale military green turret mounted dunes buggies drive by shooting bullets. Blue and purple blood all over the ground as corpses of the brightly colored armored aliens lay by the scattered green and blue glowing weapons. The corpses and blood splatter fly around as blue explosions scatter about. Flipped purple round turrets and exploded flipped and flaming airplane like hover bikes lay about around scattered blue energy disk shields. Shooting stars, blue lakes and waterfalls around the ocean. Tan sand and yellow/dark seafoam green grass all on the ground in patches. All of this is what this song portrays in its entirety. Wonderful. Thanks for the childhood, Bungie.
It brings me very good memories when I arrived from elementary school, I ran up the stairs of my house and quickly turned on the console to play Halo CE
@@Rhinestone_Radiothere is just a lot of detail in halo ce. It really immerses you. The enemy and lvl design is still phenomenal. It just feels good takin down waves of covenant with the legendary soundtrack and setting
I feel sorry for anyone that has never played the OG Halo games. I bugged my brother about it for years to play and back in 2020, he sent me a random text message that read "Halo is pretty good." I've only told you that for the last TEN YEARS.
Competitive multiplayer is what the masses care about these days. Good story art characters and setting is just a back seat side game mode for us old heads. Even tho that’s what made games like halo truly stand on its feet and break the mainstream before social media was even a thing. True art that everyone couldn’t help but notice

It was meant to depict a "dance" (=combat) with the Covenant, the name being further amplified in meaning by the fluid nature of the gameplay in the game. I feel like it romanticised combat, but not in a "war is so great way". The game did a good jov at depicting the horrors of fighting a war where the other side is hellbent on your genocide (not as much as I'd like to, the books were stellar in that regard but hey ho). This song makes me think of fighting the Covenant on their own ground, but winning by "dancing" better. It's not just about firepower.

Martin O'Donnell is a genius. Second only to John Williams in my book.
My personal opinion, but I think halo music has a more clear and appropriate melodious quality to it than JWs Star Wars music. Still good, tho.
John Williams has worked on dozens of very successful films besides Star Wars.
+Zachary Robertson i have to agree
Martin O'Donnell and Alexander Seropian should make a track together because I can't help but feel Martin was inspired by the track "Leela" when he composed "Covenant Dance".

But on Legendary,... man I enjoyed dying, but grenades would bounce everywhere; a plasma grenade would explode shooting another plasma grenade out of 3-5 towards you and then see it stick to you; it was adrenaline-laced insanity! ...the heart attacks... ... breathe** ... WORTH IT.

Throws grenade...looks at others all over the ground. Oh sh-*BOOM*
more like WORT IT
Library... when the last door opens.
Assault on the control room*
When it's 2019 and your still listening to this master piece
Hell yea all the way till I die.
Must get on pc TO LOOP
This is the song you will be playing when ur in the military XD magine that.
2020 too.
When it's 2050 and you're still listening to this masterpiece.
This song alone is better than the whole Halo 5 game...
Give it a break, how many years has it been? Give 343 a chance to find a door. Name me a company that took on a new franchise previously made by a more reputable company and got it right the first time.
Agree everything is bad multiplayer is not halo at all
The campaign is shit I waited THREE DAYS TO PLAY THE CAMPAIGN and all I got was
Some moron defeating the badass person ever known to man
@@stupidjaosn the respawn timer was cancerous as well as the req system
That would imply that Halo 5 music is on par with the OG songs.
This tune will make you dance
It's the covenant *_DANCE_* after all
the prophets get out of their chairs and start dancing aswell🤣🤣
Halo ce is still the GOAT to this day.
If this track doesn't scream early 2000s, I don't know what else will.
We can so still reminisce on the past as a individual and still enjoy the game as it was before, but as a societal whole of counting on the general culture aspect of others to replicate from that time period is what fails to bring the experience full circle.
Perfect song for getting funky in the middle of a firefight
Best version of Dance of the Covenant
I wholeheartedly agree with you!
Whats sad is that this was never used outside of Halo 1 or its remakes, i wouldve loved to see this be used more like the others
No level was impossible to beat like Two Betrayals was
I think this song is the most genius song on the whole game series.
Keep in mind all im saying here, is strictly interpretation, and opinions
This song, in every other level in CE, is only ever played when there is a battle going on between the Flood and the Covenant (there are other pieces that play instead when there is a flood covenant battle) except for the ending of Mission 5 Assault on the Control Room.
Why i find that very interesting is that they use this song to foreshadow the Flood.
The Mission 5 end cutscene, where Cortana is all Frantic, is because of the song.
Now I believe, that the Covenant knew about the Flood on the ring way before Chief and Cortana did.
It's why i believe there was such a dense presence of covenant forces just before the Control room.
I believe, that the covenant expected the flood to show up at the control room area, and i believe there defences would have worked if Chief didn't pummel his way through.
I believe the covenant at the end of mission 5, were in a way battleing the Flood, in a preventive way, rather than simply a battlefield style of battle, thus i believe why they put the song right there at the end.
I think the way the covenant was set up through the entirety of mission 5 was to defend against the flood, more so than the Unsc. As the Unsc were getting trampled in that area. With the exception of chief. Possible could have defeated chief if it weren't for the aireal assault, from underground (still my favorite moment in the game)
But keep in mind this nothing more than me speculating more than anything. The devs could have simply thought "this song would be fun here"
I'm going to miss the Bungie logo popping up before I play Destiny and this song not playing.
I know how you feel man :(
Now we all just sorta miss Bungie now that it's been consumed by the darkness.
and now that Bungie has split from Activison we can hope that they will return to the light
Spartans never die they’re just missing in action
@@Revan_Reborn Hopefully they work on more Halo games with 343, and rehire Marty O'Donnell
Goddamnit 3 seconds in and I now want to replay this game
This is the stuff that makes the Shangheli nod their heads on-drum and daydream of their homeworld as they all get together in a huge slav trap and bend-squat to the beat. Slapper.
2022 are the any other unsc out there still listening?
Affirmative.
Can confirm, over.
If 343i remasters this song in Infinite and names it Banished Boogie, I will forgive them for their crimes against humanity.
Still listening to this song in 2020!!
When you come out onto the two platforms between doors in Two Betrayals and this is playing... The covenant and flood at each other's throats and you have to make it through. A very memorable moment for me.
IDK if Halo CE is objectively the best Halo, but for those of us who were the OG players when it was released will forever love it more than the others because of the nostalgia of it, and the music was just as much a part of that experience than the gameplay.
When I talk about Halo, people always tell me to forget about the past and hope for the future. I then reply with "Eat shit. Halo 5 is the biggest bicockdigroil piece of bloatfly larva I've ever played." >:(
But I've learned to respect other people's opinions, fortunately. Kudos to you if you actually enjoy playing that crock-o'-shit you call a Halo game. I don't see any way that would even be possible for one like me. :/
weird how history repeats itself. i remember how reach was 'the worst halo ever', and now people are begging for another game like it and drowning in nostalgia for how much of an awesome game it was.
exactly the same is happening for halo 4 with people reforming their opinion on its storyline; even though a couple of years ago it was given the title of 'worst halo game' as per every new title. nostalgia always blinds players' perspective on a title.
Ah... I feel kinda stupid now...
That's true, but as someone who liked 4 and didn't feel Reach did bad on it's multiplayer as people claim, Halo 5 still feels like absolute shit in its single player component and is only slightly redeemed in its multiplayer aspect.
...Never said I didn't love Halo 4 tho, just bear in mind... ^_^
I couldn’t remember the name of this song. I searched “music that the elites jam to in Halo CE.” That worked.
when its 2022 an you're still jammin to this
You got a strong sense of art and nostalgia if you still listening to this lmao. Rip a bygone era
2022 and it's still good to listen to
Que buenos gustos tiene el Covenant
This game is legendary, the most epic campaign in Halo history, this tune is epic.
Combat Evolved had his own deep style I think. And this is what its make it so great.
The synth sound is so good
this is a very unique song just like under cover of night and the reason i just love!!! halo.
We need a ‘Banished Dance’ for infinite.
Im going to request this the Halo website now
There is one
@@RELvera no way
edit* So yes way
@@cheeseman6016 you'll see how people in the comments talk about it relating to the banished
@@RELvera I see
Every Halo game has incredible music. It’s one of the defining things about the series. I’ll never forget hearing that Gregorian chanting for the first time on the Halo 3 menu. I’m 28 now and I’m still a huge fan of Halo, always will be. It’s the series alone that has kept me with Microsoft. I absolutely can not wait for Halo Infinite!
and now that infinite is here how do u feel?
@@Willpowerdestruction still feel the same bro. Infinite’s campaign may be one of my fav’s. The music is great as well.
@@atvbass10 yeah bro I can agree. I thought the campaign was beautiful. Maybe it’s just me but i definitely had some halo vibes from the previous games.
First time playing this level I was on legendary. When the doors opened and the music started:
"holy shit!"
9 ELITES CAN'T DANCE
Now 11
Grunts*
+Dylan Begazo Everybody stop! JOHNSON time!!
and why is overeatch fighting itsself?
*19
I only remember this song from one moment. Round a corner after fighting covenant in a narrow corridor heading to the control room, you're about to head up the ramp and suddenly you hear assault rifle fire, then a shotgun, then the elite ahead is attacked and the Flood forms attacking him pounce on screen as well and likely push him back. Either at that point you just slowly backed up and let the fight happen, or you reloaded your assault rifle and rushed in to make sure nobody stole your kills. XD
2023 and I still cannot stop listening to this, never gets old
That hallway on the Pillar of Autumn with those infinitely respawning Flood xP this music made that whole ordeal much better
Been searching for this song everywhere on YT and I finally found it.
Honestly my all time favorite halo song ever
Imma throw a party and have this on a 5 hour loop
0:01 to 0:02 i can hear the grunt
I guess you right, I hear the sniff sniff too lol
elite: wort wort wort
chief: ...
grunts: AHHHHHHHH
the covenant when they kill a spartan:
Still remember the tension of seeing the convenant and flood fighting each other for the first time with this song in the background
Excellent music by an excellent musician.
Arbiter : pass the aux
Chief : here
Covenant dance begins to play
I love how there are rooms where the flood, covenant, and sentinel drones are all battling each other. Then Chief walks in and fucks them all up.
I remember this playing durring the Prohet of Truths party, only 2552 kids will remember
anyone hear the grunt in the beginning?
SoulJester34 yep
SoulJester34 good hearing
That's a Jackal.
Date Masamune no it’s a grunt sniffing
I didnt know what that was until now, Thanks!
Finnally 1M❤️
Me and the boys rollin up to the control room like:
My mom saw me once whilst vibin to this banger, she asked why I was doin a tribal dance, and I told her "why do you question my faith, that is heresy"
all heretics must be punished
force her to listen to it on repeat for 2 days straight
@@Grimreaper-ps4di My faith is strong, Noble Prophet, there can be no greater heresy, let her be an example to all who would defy our covenant.
still jamming in 2023
Every time I play Halo I picture me and my generation having the time of our lives and now since I'm 20 and seeing the choices and loss of innocence I get a nostalgia feeling of happiness harmony and sadness all at once I miss my childhood and my innocence long live Halo
nostalgia? the game came out when I was in middle school... were you even born then?
@@Willpowerdestruction technically yes I was born in 2000
@@Willpowerdestruction what exile said, I was also born 2000, played the game (very badly, on easy mode) when I was 2. I loved the colors and the sounds so much, especially the alien blood colors so I kept beating them after they died and then I wasn't allowed to play it after that until 3rd grade, with some sneaky playing imbetween lol. I think my fondest moment, the most nostalgic and senory loaded moment, was during control room when you crossed one of the bridges for the first time and Pale Horse started playing.
heh.....my childhood was Arkanoid on an Apple 2 GS 😛
You were still in middle school when halo was no longer Bungie, Halo is your dad's generation big man.
The brutality of an unknown enemy dancing on your dead body.
The moments I cherish most for while playing Halo are the moments in which kickass music like this starts playing
Move, move marines the core ain’t paying us by the hour - Sargent Johnson and also my favorite line from him
Haha that video came out back when halo was an enjoyable series...
I miss the days man
The music of halo CE alone is better then all of halo 4 and 5 combined
You're pretty much right but 117 is pretty good.
"The Covenant battle net is in chaos.... they've sent in a strike team to eliminate the Flood and repair the cruiser. I've found Captain Keys... he's Alive!!"
Were it so easy
Pure memories of a wonderful yet ignorant lifestyle. A time before school where we'd be at home all day. When mom went to bed, we watched dad play halo on the big TV until he told us to go to bed. Remembering the music and scenery of the game.
Halo CE was indeed a unique game with it's own atmosphere that no other game could portray the same, just like every other individual halo sequel. Only that some music has been repeated through sequels that sound no different from the previous game. However, this song is completely on it's own. This song is a song only Halo CE can portray.
Absolutely outstanding music. Beautiful blue filtered and bloomy atmosphere as a long grey alien planet-like ring peered upon the slightly cloudy but overall clear star filled sky, stretching to one side to another. Blue and green glowing balls fly through the scenery as you walk while glowing green and blue shields move and glow in the distance all in between dark brown trees, mountains, and rocks. The bullets go pew pew. brown and grey marines with green eye pieces sprint by shooting yellow bullets at the aliens while you notice your own grey round gun swaying side to side to the beat of the music as you walk. The aliens scream and yell while elites go "Wort wort wort." Sometimes pale military green turret mounted dunes buggies drive by shooting bullets. Blue and purple blood all over the ground as corpses of the brightly colored armored aliens lay by the scattered green and blue glowing weapons. The corpses and blood splatter fly around as blue explosions scatter about. Flipped purple round turrets and exploded flipped and flaming airplane like hover bikes lay about around scattered blue energy disk shields. Shooting stars, blue lakes and waterfalls around the ocean. Tan sand and yellow/dark seafoam green grass all on the ground in patches.
All of this is what this song portrays in its entirety. Wonderful. Thanks for the childhood, Bungie.
Absolute banger
God this is such a BEAT
Alto cumbion galáctico :v
Gabriel el chido no manches no lo veas asi

De los mejores.
It brings me very good memories when I arrived from elementary school, I ran up the stairs of my house and quickly turned on the console to play Halo CE
made so many Flood pets back then, had like a train of floodies runnin behind me all armless ..oh teh lulzback then
U did that also? xD
Wiremode You too? I liked to call them honeys. No idea why though.
So I'm not the only person who does that. That's cool
was all fun and games back then till you realise they cuck your checkpoints and you die and get sent back a millenia
Halo, the greatest game of all time. Nothing will ever compare. Games just aren’t made like this anymore..
As much as i love Fps games like Doom and wolfinstine Halo is what really brought Fps games to a whole level on its own
@@Rhinestone_Radiothere is just a lot of detail in halo ce. It really immerses you. The enemy and lvl design is still phenomenal. It just feels good takin down waves of covenant with the legendary soundtrack and setting
This needs to play for every pizza delivery guy in the world.
Went on hiking with this on my headphones, it was good
I feel sorry for anyone that has never played the OG Halo games. I bugged my brother about it for years to play and back in 2020, he sent me a random text message that read "Halo is pretty good."
I've only told you that for the last TEN YEARS.
Competitive multiplayer is what the masses care about these days. Good story art characters and setting is just a back seat side game mode for us old heads. Even tho that’s what made games like halo truly stand on its feet and break the mainstream before social media was even a thing. True art that everyone couldn’t help but notice
@@slayking2378He just isn't into sci-fi stuff
POV: you’re looking for the right way to progress.
POV:it's 2001 and your having the time of your life with multiple TV's and lan with your buddies and having alot of soda and pizza
One of my only issues with this game lol
The other ones are rocket flood, a couple repetitive sections, and the entirety of the library
100% my favorite halo soundtrack!
I'm been listening to this specific Halo Video since 2011 gets me pump up for a workout!! FINISH THE FIGHT!!
Best soundtrack ever made. Right next to the other one's.
