A masterful theme. Even people who hate Halo know where this is from (some many of them have to admit they love this song, despite themselves). You hear this, you know exactly where it's from and you remember what it felt like to stand against the Covenant horde. Just you, your weapons, and your wits. What was even better was, with this music behind you, you weren't going to fail.
Yeah, I played some Wii and DS games before this, but this game started my life of gaming at 8 years old. We recently moved into our new house since my Mom and Step-dad got married, my dad gave me all his old games since his Xbox broke. My step-dad gave me and my little brother his old Xbox Original and I was choosing which game to play and this green astronaut holding a rifle with soldiers and aliens fighting each other. I put in the disk, waited for it to load, then saw the beautiful ring, and this song played.
@1:00 "ship's engine shows one more longsword fighter docking at launch bay 6. If we move now, we can make it". Racing against time and death in the final run... Still gives me goosebumps😍
Lol ok. Belted out the choral part with a deep voice as I could get. Then broke out in an air guitar solo. Not that complicated. Kids love it when their Dad's are goofy. @@cubanjit

"Cortana, these coordinates are underground - Look on the bright side Foehammer, the last thing the covenant will expect is an aerial insertion.. from underground
One of the best title themes for a game. Period. I remember leaving this title screen on in my parents' dark bedroom, soaking in the atmosphere of the chanting, staring in awe at the title screen. I love classic Halo.
Grandson looking through my past stuff:woah what's this game "halo" Me:(has a tear going down one cheek) alright sit down you bitch I'm gonna tell you a heroic story
Hace como 13 años comencé a jugar Halo, en mi xbox que me regalo mi hermana, ahora con 31 años, estoy jugando de nuevo la saga con mi esposo cada vez que mi bebe duerme. Y es inexplicable volver a sentir este tema..
I haven't played the halo campaigns when i was really young but now that started playing the first halo campaign about 2 or 3 weeks ago and went through all of them on the master chief collection on steam and that includes reach and now i understand why people say its so good
3:18 no would talk about the siege of madrigal bit near the end. When I listen to it, I start remembering the fallen marines during the battle of installation 04 against the covenant & the flood. RIP cpt Jacob Keyes & pvt Jenkins.
I love this Halo song so much it’s one of the best first person shooter game I’ve ever played and ever seen in my life and this is basically like the next Star Wars !
I remember playing the final mission with my little brother when we were kids and crying cause he kept jumping out the warthog while I’m trying to get to where we gotta be😂💀
So when I was like 7~8 I played Halo for the first time (from the 90's), when the 2nd part came I also got that and those were actually the only 2 games I had. I have like 2k~ hours on both of them, later I decided to switch to PS, but every now and then I turn my old og Xbox and play on it. The Halo Theme is a Masterpiece ❤️
I have a pretty similar experience. The first halo I ever played was Halo 2 when I was probably around 8 years old. I ended up playing the halo 3 odst campaign and the halo reach campaign all the way through. I was too young to really care about the storytelling side of the game, I just played it because it was fun. I actually played ended up using the disk with backwards compatibility on Xbox One and beat the campaign like twice. Just a few days ago I found out the master chief collection (halo CE-halo 4) existed and was on Steam for PC. I bought it and just finished the Halo CE campaign and I’m so glad I started playing halo again. The nostalgia is next level, and now that I understand the storytelling I have a whole new appreciation for this series. I can’t get enough of it. Over the next month or so, I’ll probably exclusively be playing this series all the way through in their release order like one giant novel with each game being a different chapter. I start Halo 2 tomorrow and I can’t wait. I love this series.
@@d_kortman The Halo series are awesome, to sad people don't give it a chance because they have to defend their platform of gaming for whatever reason (talking about experience).
god the goose bumps from nostalgia is unreal. i grew up playing halo back in 2013 with combat evolved halo 3 and 4 didnt have halo 2 because it was out of stock so i forgor 💀
Halo 5 tries to do this john williams "Epppiiiccc ness" but it takes so much from Halo's mysticism and emersion. But this is still the best and keeps the halo lore alive. Unlike hunt the truth bullshit.
Working didn't matter, just as long as you had halo on xbox nothing else mattered, wielding two guns and having two triggers we're awesome on one controller
Yeah sure, when I tell people I have a Degree in Pokemon Psychology from Celadon University they put me in a straight jacket, but when Psycho Joy over here does it, it's all okay!

Most epic soundtrack In a shooting game I've ever heard In my whole life. Change my mind!
Don't need to, because it's true.
The use of gregorian monks in this ost is incredible, no ost like this, so inspiring and very bold score for the game!
Especially for it's time dude, you listen to other games OST from the same era. almost none as good this one
the fucking memories man
yes the memories
Here I am on July 18, 2022, at exactly 5:01 AM still loving this song. If only I could get my 360 working again.
I'm going to send out every flavor of prayer/vibe/whatever I can for you to get that bad boy running. Best of luck.
I have a spare I think if u wanna buy it off me
Get the master chief collection multiple options to play it on and it's got the best of halo all but one is bungie
Martin O'Donnell is the musician who gave us this masterpiece 🫡
