+xCF91x I saw it, and my previous comment still stands. As Halo 4 is the only thing covered in enough detail to mean anything to someone who has never played halo.
+Captain Davian Actually your comment don't stand. it's their video and they wanted to put focus on Halo 4 since the game picks up after the events of Halo 4 not the trilogy or reach.
Well firstly, this isn't a book. It's a 5 minute video. Secondly, "Halo in 5 minutes (With a special emphasis on Halo 4)" is a bit long for a video title on TH-cam. That's why they generally explain things like that in the description. Just because you're too lazy to read the description of a video doesn't mean you can give them shit for it.
Sean DFP Yeah, I can give them shit about this. Halo 4 is a tiny, tiny part of the Halo lore. They're literally doing no one any favors by summarising it alone. They tried to pass off this video as all of Halo lore condensed into 5 minutes, when actually it's 3% of some of the less relevant Halo lore in 5 minutes.
monk1junk1 Again, just because you couldn't be assed reading the description doesn't mean you can give them shit. Halo 4 and onwards is the beginning of a new saga in the series where the games prior to it have only a small relevance on the current story. Not only that, IGN has already done a summary of the events leading up to Halo 4 a few years ago. If they were trying to 'pass of this video as all of Halo lore' why would they put emphasis on Halo 4 in the description?
+Miguel Enriquez So if the person has 17 subs like me, i can't say that i "Can't wait this game is gonna be awesome," without being accused of seld advertising, even though YOU think i am doing it with out ME knowing?!
+monk1junk1 I think they kinda had to cause basically everyone's played the other campaigns and gets the gist. It'd be nice if they included books lore etc. though.
I was just thinking why I never played the Halo 4 campaign more than once... And then I remembered it was because the Didact is the dumbest thing that they ever integrated into the Halo universe. Halo does not need a text-book Super-Villain imported straight out of Marvel :/
Halo = full time, always favorite and childhood game. I still remember when halo 2 just came out, oh man that was the shit! still love halo 1 and 3 out the ass though!
The emphasis on halo 4 makes sense, for all the returning halo 4 fans, the general plot of halo is probably etched quite well into their minds, but the specifics of the latest game, halo 4 aren't probably that clear.
GET HYPED!!! thanks for all the support guys, i know its been a while but my channel will be debuting soon. and i hope you guys will be there for the debut. much love from Game in
Got Halo MCC played Halo Aniversary and enjoyed it. Played Halo 2 Anniversary upped the difficulty to Heroic, enjoyed the hell out of it, but never playing on heroic again trying to marathon. Played Halo 3, slightly enjoyed it up until the endgame. It literally was fight this horde, destroy this, fight off another horde, repeat the Warthog ending from Halo 1. I swear I hate mechanics for that damn vehicle and I hate the Flood even more. Now, Im about to jump into Halo 4, which I played half of co-op on the 360. Next week Halo 5. Hopefully no god awful warthog missions. I swear I would drive straight, ride off a ramp and it would flip over, even when I land properly.
well idk...kinda...if you got that ad. if you think about it, you'll get it... Like PlayStation is even better than Xbox, even with the ads....like it beat it.....idk (NOT HATING! I Like BOTH Consoles)...It was suppose to be a joke lol... :)
And you didn't explain how the Human/Covenant War happen, The Fall of Reach, How Master Chief and Blue Team became Spartans, the Lore of the alien species, and How Master Ceif got aboard the Pillar of Autumn and met Cortana.
HALO FANS!! Can someone answer some questions for me? Where were the flood imprisoned on the 1st halo? How did the covenant release them? Were they only imprisoned on the 1 halo? If not, how were they released from the other halos? Also, it’s implied in the 1st halo that just firing installation 3 will end sentient life...if that’s what happens, how come they activated a halo in halo 3? Or does each halo only destroy 1/7th of the galaxy? That also makes me wonder why they needed to stop the ring from firing in Halo 2, but then went ahead and fired one in halo 3.
I think it's funny that he barely talks about the first 3 games. The flood even get mentioned only once and that's in the part where they are destroyed in Halo 3.
2 questions 1- how did the didactic still exist if activating the halo wiped out all life ? 2- In Halo 5 how did Cortana get to Meridian if she died? (I played the game, just forgot)
I got a halo mega bloks commercial before this, if we want to prevent kids from playing mature games, then STOP MAKING KID AIMED PRODUCTS OUT OF M17 GAMES!
"Because he is a galactic jerk." That covers 0 of the nuance regarding the Didact's motivations, because they conveniently forget to mention ancient humanity and they're destructive battle with the Forerunners.
"The story continues in Halo 5: Guardians". Lol if only. If only Microsoft hadn't gotten cold feet and forced 343 into a horrible position creatively. If only we actually got the story Halo 5 was supposed to be. The story that actually built off of and continued Halo 4's story. Such a shame.
They missed SO MUCH!!!! they didn't even mention anything from Halo Escalation, or the reasons that the Didact had control over the STORM covenant, and hated (and killed) the humans. He glassed pre-historic humans with the Composer, and turned them into promethians as weapons to fight off the flood. Buck became an ODST. Master Chief and Blue team hunted down The didact and another oracle. ....god IGN, why are you so lazy???
Hey dude, I was playing GTA the other day and you were driving past me and stopped. I asked you to take me the the air port and you did. I thought the emblem on the hood of your car was a soccer ball. Now that I have come across your TH-cam channel, I see you, that same car and emblem on the hood. lol... Small GTA world... peace man... REDD_PLANET
Ugh every time I see Halo 4 put next to the original trilogy I just get so sad #NeverForget the glory days of Halo Hopefully 343 redeems the series with Halo 5 after the colossal failure of a game that was Halo 4
Should probably rename this Halo 4 in 5 minutes. There was a hell of a lot of stuff that they missed.
+xCF91x I saw it, and my previous comment still stands. As Halo 4 is the only thing covered in enough detail to mean anything to someone who has never played halo.
+Captain Davian Actually your comment don't stand. it's their video and they wanted to put focus on Halo 4 since the game picks up after the events of Halo 4 not the trilogy or reach.
+Captain Davian they gave détails about halo 4 because it's the one related to Halo 5
+Captain Davian Because they need to advertise for Halo 5. That's how they get that Microsoft money.
So like I said. They should rename it as there was basically no point covering the other games. Can we forget about this now it's getting stupid.
Halo 4 in 4 minutes
+Coregame3 halo 6 in 6 mins 2016 666
+Coregame3 Halo 7 in 7 Mins 2017 777 HAHA.
I prefer 666.
Halo 1 in 1 minute lolololo
Title should be *Halo 4 in 5 minutes
Read the description.

+Just Awesomee this is because it is the first one in the reclaimers saga
You literally cannot explain halo in 5 minutes. This is only a tiny tiny tiny fraction of the story
so true
Should be halo in like 10 hours to explain all the lore lol
This is like 1/1,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000 percent of the entire lore
Halo in a few words. A mediocre FPS Game
+Geralt Of Rivia Your comment is shit.....hm I guess you and your comment do have something in common.
"Cortana overwhelms him with the power of love" lol
Can't wait this game is gonna be awesome
that moment when you self advertise without knowing it.
+Miguel Enriquez So if the person has 17 subs like me, i can't say that i "Can't wait this game is gonna be awesome," without being accused of seld advertising, even though YOU think i am doing it with out ME knowing?!
+SlayerNebula21 - I guess everything someone says hyping a game they like is considered advertising lol
ItsRedFusion Yeah man the internet is a great place but has a shitty cost of being awful with it.
+ItsRedFusion your right man but why don't you make a second account just for commenting on things you like
Very well put together and edited! Kudos to the team involved in making this video! Great job!
I thought this video was called halo in 5 minutes not halo 4 in 5 minutes
just ign being ign
Read description
Spent way too long summarizing Halo 4, not enought on the actual lore.
+monk1junk1 I think they kinda had to cause basically everyone's played the other campaigns and gets the gist. It'd be nice if they included books lore etc. though.
I always get lost after combat evolved.
+yungmatt009 uhhh no
RedJackOfClubs uhhhh no
true
for everyone complaining they already have another video for the other halo games this is for halo 4 & 5 which is why they put 2015 after the title
Love your series in 5 minutes. So helpful. So quick.
this was only halo 4 in 5 minutes
+Coregame3 Read description
+CarlosG 0619 no he means that ign briefly covered 1,2, and 3 in like two minutes and the rest was halo 4
chief showing his back to us as he walks away is so badass and iconic
+Biassi Calabria Can't be iconic untill 2552
Did anyone else see the title as "Halo 5 in minutes" the first time you looked at it?
+ThatKidFromThatShow yes I did
I did it 2 wtf!!? ;)
Me 2
Wow, I forgot how shitty the story of Halo 4 was.
Dude please just please go,go play halo 4 as many times until your brain fries
+MiamiFanRyan it wasnt shitty
+Pritesh Patel yah right
+MiamiFanRyan halo 4 had the best story of any halo game.
+HyalineJustice not the best halo campaign but not the worst my favorite campaign was halo 2
The new Halo trilogy; Halo Six anyone.
I was just thinking why I never played the Halo 4 campaign more than once... And then I remembered it was because the Didact is the dumbest thing that they ever integrated into the Halo universe.
Halo does not need a text-book Super-Villain imported straight out of Marvel :/
+iStoniestSloth I know why he exists and I know the lore. I still think he's incredibly generic and boring.
***** Oh don't remind me. That was another thing that annoyed me about the campaign. They added in QTEs -.-
I don't want to see chief face
Keep forgetting how old he is
+yungmatt009 uhhh no
+PokerFaceZero Me too bud
+yungmatt009 he is around 40.
Martin Sevcech he's almost 50...
this was just halo 4 in five minutes
Read the description
+KASIMO CATALLA Look at the video
the didact dying in a comic after halo 4 is easily the most disappointing thing about halo
I cried in halo 4 end :(
Watching a video on halo, gets a halo 5 ad. It's just too amazing!
Halo = full time, always favorite and childhood game. I still remember when halo 2 just came out, oh man that was the shit! still love halo 1 and 3 out the ass though!
love that description of cortanas rampancy
The emphasis on halo 4 makes sense, for all the returning halo 4 fans, the general plot of halo is probably etched quite well into their minds, but the specifics of the latest game, halo 4 aren't probably that clear.
so you summarized Halo Reach: 1, 2, ODST, 3 in 1 minute... good going IGN!
They released an earlier video
Halo's lore has always been deep. 5 minutes ain't enough.
Great way to introduce new people to the Halo franchise by mostly summarizing Halo 4...
gg IGN
I needed this. I need to brush up on my halo.
GET HYPED!!! thanks for all the support guys, i know its been a while but my channel will be debuting soon. and i hope you guys will be there for the debut. much love from Game in

nice little golden eye joke thingy C:
Halo In 5 Minutes... And TH-cam Shows A PlayStation Ad Before 5 Minutes!!!......LOL!! 😂😂😂
How is that even remotely funny
well idk...kinda...if you got that ad. if you think about it, you'll get it... Like PlayStation is even better than Xbox, even with the ads....like it beat it.....idk (NOT HATING! I Like BOTH Consoles)...It was suppose to be a joke lol... :)
1. Halo: CE
2. Halo: Reach
3. Halo 3
4. Halo 2
5. Halo 5
6. Halo: ODST
7. Halo 4
In my opinion.
HALO THE BEST CAMPAIGN GAME EVER
All you did was just summarize Halo 4. You didn't talk a lot about Halo Reach, 1-3.
And you didn't explain how the Human/Covenant War happen, The Fall of Reach, How Master Chief and Blue Team became Spartans, the Lore of the alien species, and How Master Ceif got aboard the Pillar of Autumn and met Cortana.
+Young Money uhhh no
+Young Money yup
Mind Blow uhhhh no
Dennis Rodman the arrogance is strong in this one
Omg this is the continuation to the first halo in 5 minute video
HALO FANS!! Can someone answer some questions for me? Where were the flood imprisoned on the 1st halo? How did the covenant release them? Were they only imprisoned on the 1 halo? If not, how were they released from the other halos?

Or does each halo only destroy 1/7th of the galaxy? That also makes me wonder why they needed to stop the ring from firing in Halo 2, but then went ahead and fired one in halo 3.
Are you kidding me!!!? you missed nearly the entire original halo trilogy
can't wait.
"the story of the first trilogy for a minute than halo 4 for 4 minutes and also no reach, books or war."
before you say its halo 4 in 5 mins, check the description -_-
spartan ops ? escalation? new blood? hunters In the dark? last light? hunt the truth? nah screw all that story stuff let's just recap Halo 4!
Welcome home, John.
I think it's funny that he barely talks about the first 3 games. The flood even get mentioned only once and that's in the part where they are destroyed in Halo 3.
that Golden-Eye comment felt oddly personal. like he gritted his teeth as he said it
This should be called Halo 4 in 5 minutes.
2 questions
1- how did the didactic still exist if activating the halo wiped out all life ?
2- In Halo 5 how did Cortana get to Meridian if she died? (I played the game, just forgot)
I got a halo ad before I watched this
I mean, there's a whole sub-plot with Spartan-Ops that they didn't touch which is heavily relevant to Halo 5, buuuuuut sure. Okay. Good summary.
I got a halo mega bloks commercial before this,
if we want to prevent kids from playing mature games, then STOP MAKING KID AIMED PRODUCTS OUT OF M17 GAMES!
the composer is not destroyed. That was made clear in Halo escalation
just got the limited edition Xbox one the other day, can't wait!
6 days until I start failing junior year of high school
"Because he is a galactic jerk." That covers 0 of the nuance regarding the Didact's motivations, because they conveniently forget to mention ancient humanity and they're destructive battle with the Forerunners.
New Phinox is in a weird spot
this is more like halo 4 in 5 minutes
spoiler alert master chief is Bruce Wayne with a recurrence genetic strand! BOOM.
"The story continues in Halo 5: Guardians". Lol if only. If only Microsoft hadn't gotten cold feet and forced 343 into a horrible position creatively. If only we actually got the story Halo 5 was supposed to be. The story that actually built off of and continued Halo 4's story. Such a shame.
I want to go out and get a Xbox now
JUST DO IT!
DON'T LET YOUR DREAMS BE DREAMS!
YESTERDAY, YOU SAID TOMORROW!!!
JUST DO IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
People: read the description!!!
Next time they do this it'll be called ''Halo 5 in 5 minutes (sort of)''
when u realize tells u more about the game than the developers themselves
when u realize ign*
So why was the Didact a bad guy. I never played 4, but I thought the Forerunners were peaceful.
That is right the first 3 games can be discribed in a few seconds...
now i want to replay halo 4!!!
GOD i love halo !
Was the Diadect killed in the nuclear blast? Or is he still around, like an ace card for 343 to bust out later in their saga?
I hope no one new to the franchise uses this video to be caught up on the first 3 games... Maybe just 4
sooo how in the world isn't Master Chief the commander of all Earth's forces? I mean is clearly the man for the job xD
They missed SO MUCH!!!! they didn't even mention anything from Halo Escalation, or the reasons that the Didact had control over the STORM covenant, and hated (and killed) the humans. He glassed pre-historic humans with the Composer, and turned them into promethians as weapons to fight off the flood. Buck became an ODST. Master Chief and Blue team hunted down The didact and another oracle. ....god IGN, why are you so lazy???
Nobody really gives a shit about the expanded lore.
0IIIIII that "expanded lore" is going into the new games...thanks to 343 :D
Icey76
And the story is too dense and too poorly explained as a result.
Why would you show the exclusive legendary reward of Chief's face, people should earn it
I know they decided to put more enphasis on Halo 4, but they really could have spent a little more time on the other Halo games.
educational
"Galactic Jerk" I'm so gonna use it :'v
One cannot simply explain the Halo story in 5 minutes! This is not CoD.
Mean
I guess you guys missed everything that happened in halo 2 and halo 1...I rate this 7.1/10 :)
They made another video that talked about the other games. No point doing it here.
Halo in 4:58
So did the covenant make the halo rings or the diadect.
who else paused the video to see chiefs face?
Hey dude, I was playing GTA the other day and you were driving past me and stopped. I asked you to take me the the air port and you did. I thought the emblem on the hood of your car was a soccer ball. Now that I have come across your TH-cam channel, I see you, that same car and emblem on the hood. lol... Small GTA world...
peace man... REDD_PLANET
who is the best halo villain?
Forgot to say how the Spartans where made ;)
I got an add for the division before watching this
halo 5 hype
Love how they totally skipped Halo 2.
this is halo 4 review in 5 minutes
And would you look at that
A full price franchise in 5 minutes. Wow
Ugh every time I see Halo 4 put next to the original trilogy I just get so sad
#NeverForget the glory days of Halo
Hopefully 343 redeems the series with Halo 5 after the colossal failure of a game that was Halo 4
I hate Halo 4 and 5's story. 343 ruined the Halo campaign.
bait
Rotoaster ?
Feather Pillows I agree, however I didn't mind Halo 4 campaign. But Halo 5 ruined the ending of Halo 4 anyway
Tom Cline Yea, that tends to be the usual view. But my view is not too uncommon either.
Title should be Halo 4 in 5 minutes
This is basically Halo 4 in 5 mins. You barely touched Reach, 1-3 and ODST at all.
There's an older video they made
the thumnail includes a second of it,so it says 4 mins and 59 secs lol
So are the forerunners and prometheans the same?
so who is the new guy in halo 5? what's his background is he good or bad?
YOU HAD TO MAKE IT ONE SEC OF 5 MINS
0:03 why It says "halo 5 in 5 minutes" ?
Could you do a similar video about Spartan Ops?
I haven't played spartans ops...is it important?
I haven't either, but I heard theres story elements that connects 4 to 5.
+Prathik Paramesh there is the cutscene movie on youtube 30 min circa. It takes place after H4, so it ties in with H5.
I still can't get over how he pronounces dr "Halsey".
"new halo trilogy"? I thought 343 emphasized the new set of halo games are part of a saga i.e. the Reclaimer saga
Enhance your calm John spartan!!
