Gotta say, I have a pretty fond memory. I met my wife in Halo Reach playing Swat on Countdown. That was 8 years ago. 3 kiddos later we are still to this day playing Halo together as well as Destiny 2. We also have a "Halo Wall" in our bedroom. Gotta say, I'm pretty blessed to have a wife that allows me to make an entire wall collection in our bedroom lol. Obviously Halo holds a very special place in our hearts as it will forever.

"No. We need to fight. Get ready."
The Halo series will always be my favorite. Some of the best memories of my life because of this series. Especially Halo 3. I can't wait for infinite. Halo will take over FPS again.

@@jaygreeen3153 yes
My fault thought u said best game I'm out
@@jaygreeen3153 bye.
Thats a universal truth
When I was in about 8th grade, me, some classmates, and our math teacher would hook up a projector with the original xbox and would play 2 v 2 matches. What a wonderful time.
This is a video every Halo fan has been waiting for. Fingers crossed that Infinite will be good.
Doubt
Nintendo is better than playstation
Fingers crossed
Daddytastyd101 I think you mean to say ‘Nintendo is outdated and can never match the blockbuster level of quality than PlayStation can and is producing’ 🤷♂️ just speaking the truth
We can only hope it is, for now Im happy with MCC coming to PC
Without Halo most the games we have today would not exist at all. Its sounds like a bold statement but is 100% true, period
well from a perspective of how time would be shifted due to this game not coming out, I do agree. (thats ignoring all the games who got influence from halo as well as things like Red VS blue)
Wrong
Halo was the first game, well ever, I played.
@@jsullivan2112 At the time 2 joysticks was a laughing stock. People thought it would never work and Halo made it work on FPS which caused the PS1 to adapt their DS1 to have 2 sticks and so forth
It did have an impact but that's not even close to being true.
The Master Chief:
This is Spartan 117! Can anyone read me?
Lord Hood:
Isolate that signal! Master Chief, mind telling me what you're doing on that ship?
The Master Chief:
Sir. Finishing this fight.
Nintendo is better than playstation

I honestly wish I could go back in time to the release of Halo 3. Still the most fun online shooter I've ever played. It was perfect imo
I one hundred percent agree
Seriously the best. Also released at the perfect time for me just started high school and all I had to worry about was homework and some halo 3
💯💯💯

I haven't played halo in ages. But I know or remember that the covenant was not a alien species. The covenant was a alliance between alien spies. They were in search of knowledge of the forerunners.
It was a small mistake that can be forgiven. Plus they put so much hard work into their videos, the least we could do is give them a break lol.
When I was young my dad died when ce was out and he was stuck on the 4 mission, my brother beat the game on legendary as a tribute 🙏🏼
Danm dude
❤️
Lol
@@radarphaser that's not something to laugh at G
Like... Like kept dying on the 4th mission
The Halo trilogy are my favorite games of all time for me personally. And I just want to get this out of my chest......................
MASTER CHIEF FOR SMASH
dude that would be awesome!! There is so much potential for moves.
This is the quality content I subbed for
Anyone remember the final sacrifice at the end of Reach? You, a few scattered weapons, increasingly difficult waves of enemies until you fulfill your purpose of Cortana's safe delivery
I feel so old now... I still remember saving up all my lawn mowing and babysitting money to buy an xbox just so I could play Halo.
Holy crap. That's how I bought the og xbox and halo. Mowing lawns. I bought the halo disc first and would just look at it at times while saving up for the console.
Thumbs up for the old school mentality!
Every damn penny saved was worth it my brothers
@@christiankhoury9343 good for you, get that system with your hard earned cash!
@@christiankhoury9343 💯💯💯
If infinite fails it's safe to say halo has died. I've been a fan since OG CE and also earned recon but there comes a point when you must take up the mantle and take the sickly horse behind the barn. I really hope it doesn't end up this way but there are some extreme expectations for them to succeed.
We still have Halo Wars 2, that was good.
OMG! You earned Recon?! Holy crap. You are a Halo God!
Cneq 343 just doesnt live up to the days of Halo Bungie
@@QDAWG117 Hey, hey, hey! *I* earned Recon back in 2009 too! Bow down to your God!

Getting the "If they came to hear me beg" achievement in Hall Reach. Good memories
“You look nice”
“Thanks”
"Thanks."
Thanks
*Overlapping* Thanks.
Thank you!
I started with reach, and that was my first first person shooter. I got hooked, and I've played most of the games, but sadly haven't played ODST yet. Halo 2 has become my favorite in the franchise, from both campaign and multiplayer standpoint. ( No, I haven't done legendary yet, plan on attempting this year lol) and I can't wait for infinite's release.
Halo odst is my second favorite. I having played halo 2.
You said 'first' twice in a row
@@kakashii9000 yes, but in that case it was correct lol
Good luck with the campaign. Ive beaten all Halos on legendary numerous times, and Halo 2 is definitely the hardest. I hope you dont rip your hair out
@@nmularoni1 Thanks man! I'll do my best. Might be smart to shave my head before attempting though...
Masterchief’s shoulders must be sore, carrying Xbox for over 19 years isn’t easy
Lol. So true.
The tone and visuals of Reach will forever be my alltime favorite.
Top 3
Reach
Halo 2
Halo (for nostalgia mainly)
honestly Reach has its special place in my heart, cause the first 360 xbox I had was a halo reach limited edition one. (still works to this day)
as for favorites it's tough
Reach (cause of the thousands of hours I played, especially loved the custom games that I would join)
ODST (probably my favorite campaign setting, the open world and walking around just was cool)
Halo 1/2 (nostalgia and local co-op, just 5 kids in my grandma's basement playing on an old TV, swapping controllers every so often so we could all play)
as for their order, idk each has its place (halo 3 is definitely above 4/5 but its also below the rest, I missed out on the glory days of halo 3 and so never gained the same attachment that I did to reach)
@@speedy01247 i just love Firefight in reach. After the story, Firefight is my most played mode even to this day. My 360 died and I plan on getting a new xbox One to play my physical library of games on updated hardware. Gears 3 is my second favorite exclusive from the 360 era. The fact that u can play all the modes and maps offline with bots is really fun now since nobody really plays Gears 3 online anymore. Offline custom bot matches are a lifesaver for some games. So much value there.👌👌🤩
Corey Mckee Reach is definitely my favorite, but H3 gets the number 2 spot for me. I really enjoyed hunting around for skulls.
Corey Mckee you sound like you were late to the party or something, 3 was so good
I'm so early that this video was uploaded 53 seconds ago.
DAMN!!!
Halo: CE was my first, before I knew how far I'd get into "hardcore" gaming, but no one will be able to convince me that Halo: Reach isnt the best Halo game to date. Not only is the story compelling, gameplay tight with the introduction of new mechanics and abilities, but the lack of fully regenerative health made battles a little tenser, a little more immersive, the characters were unique and you cared about each one. Plus, we FINALLY got to create our own spartan, instead of just outfitting master chief. And in my own personal experience, it introduced me to swat which to this day is some of the best times I've ever had playing games online
Honestly they should’ve waited for this until halo infinite
Some random Guy i have an feeling that game will flop, I may be wrong but 343 sucks at making Halo games after 3.
@@DR3S1NGH I really want to think Halo 6 will be good but 343's track record does everything but comfort me.
@@DR3S1NGH I may not be a fan of Halos games since 3 however we still need to think about how much time and effort these people put into the game. If we didnt like 4 or 5 then they will want 6 to be better
Halo 4’s campaign wasn’t garbage, and I 343 seem to not be screwing up this time.
Halo was truly a one of a kind game experience back in 2001 but I remember when me and my brother were just about to start playing Halo 2, that man, that was a major impact in our gamers career, we were literally shaking of excitement, my gosh this Halo road has been something that I'll never be able to forget. All hail to Master Chief.
i just love gameranx team and videos ! thx gameranx to be pushing new content every day
I remember putting my friends moms kitchen table to the max by putting 4 CTRs on it along with 4 Xbox’s many summer nights.

you guys are rocking it lately really hard.

*Me crying in PlayStation*
*Me laughing in Microsoft*
If halo infinite “flops” I’d still appreciate the game for coming out and play it without a doubt. I enjoyed all the halo games “good” or “bad”
Emmanuel Morales maybe I’m just simple to please or something but I just try to enjoy stuff for what it is y’know?
Emmanuel Morales that’s why halo is in the position it is now because fans are content with mediocrity
Not really, Halo is in the state it’s in because all people like you want to do is hate on it and not enjoy how good it is
TalonASMI I was talking about my personal opinion not the whole community. I’m aware of the halo 4 and 5 mistakes. I enjoyed the both of them differently.
I can’t not go a day with out Gameranx. It calms my anxiety and always increases my love for gaming. Thanks allot guys really appreciate it!
I was 5 years old in 2002 when i first played halo CE on my older brothers xbox. It was my first fps I ever played and fell in love immediately, I would play story and split screen with my siblings all the time and did the same with halo 2 when that came out a couple years later. Halo was my childhood franchise that I still adore to this day due to all the great memories I have because of it.
i literally just got Halo Master Chief Edition and im already in love
Collection. Correct me if I’m wrong the abbreviation is MCC. Not MCE.
I first played halo when I was 11. The previous fps i played was medal of honour on ps1 and using the triggers to fire on halo was mine blowing at the time!
Halo 2. Doing the sword cancel glitch with a buddy to climb to the top of the sky scrapers was the best!
I credit Halo CE as the game that made me the gamer/man I am today. Playing Halo, which is basically almost 2 decades ago, on the original Xbox with my family members and friends was such a pure time; and I'm forever grateful that we have the current MCC so that today, I can still relive the magic. From the lore, the art and music, to the universe that Bungie and 343 created, is nothing short of legendary even outside of gaming. I will always be a Halo fan, my family will always be a Halo family, and Halo will always be my favorite game of all time.
My first game was 4, and then I played Reach, Then 1, then 2, then 3, then ODST, and now 5, and I see why people dislike 4 and 5 and I can see the flaws, but you should also look at what they did right, best wishes, fellow gamer.
Agreed, 5 especially had some of the tightest combat and most gripping online 4v4 since Halo 3
Thank you, entertainment in general needs more positivity. Absolutely critique problems that exist but enjoy stuff for what it is
The forge, that is all halo 5 did right

Underrated comment of the video. (I’ve already given another comment elsewhere underrated comment of the year)
Picking up Halo 3 at midnight and playing it through with a friend in one sitting (except for a brief intermission to go to class at 8am) is one of my favorite gaming memories.
Great stuff chief!
I I've been playing Halo since the beginning, love them all!!!
Halo is my favorite game series. It’s been five years since the last one, there is a lot riding on infinite. I reeeeeeaaaaalllly want it to be good
I hope its a new story, new characters, even if you still play as master chief.
Can we all agree that gameranx does as superb job at making professional videos that still feel very natural? 👍
The first 8 seconds hit me with nostalgia so hard 0:02
My brother works at 343 and we've played since the start. love the studio and all it does. cant wait for the next game.
Tell your brother I need a weapon
Tell your brother to give me a free copy of the game
Tell your brother to stop making shit stories
Your brother ruined Halo.
John Veiga DONT but the next game. Speak with your wallet not with your UA-cam comment.
I’ve been waiting for this vid for years
When you buy a new VFX pack and you want to try them all.
I was introduced to Halo at Halo 3 when it was recently released. My best mate rest his soul lived for Halo and got me into it. Haven't looked back since and one of the fondest memories of him in his life was us creating our own Halo comics and fan lore. Halo holds a very special place in my heart
Halo used to be so great but since 4 the franchise has fallen far from grace, hopefully infinite will take franchise back to Its glory days
I thought Halo 4 was good or at least the ending.
Only played Halo 5 once during free play days so I can't say anything about that.
Tactical sloth78 Halo 4 was good story wise but 343i failed in the multiplayers aspect. Halo 5 has pretty good gameplay but an awful story and awful launch (remember Forge wasn’t around during launch?).
I haven't had any issues with the game from the first time I played CE to the release of 5. First and foremost it needs to keep firmly in it's roots of a fun to play campaign based game. Strong online multiplayer is second to the campaign.
Crash Schwarzenegger Same and I was in serious denial when I played 4, I kept pretending I liked it as much as Halo 1-3 but it wasnt the same. Its not the same after 343 took over.
I personally like halo 4
I'm so hyped for infinite and this is just getting me more and more pumped
I’m 17 and from the day I came out of the womb I was sitting on my dads lap playing halo 1 and 2. These were the first ever video games I had ever played. This series will always be held in a special place in my heart.
My first Halo game was Halo CE with my dad. Him and me played 2 and 3 together, we beat the original trilogy and not long after he passed away. The impact these games left on my life is important to me and I still play them today. Me and my fiancee have decided to play through the entire series and beat them together. These games have given me joy through my life and hopefully one day they'll make in depth vr halo.
The Pitt on halo 3 was when boys became men
And girls into women, i was 6 or 7 when i started playing halo 3, i used to be so good. I played again yesterday and alot of days with my brother came into memory..
arista_epperson me as well I was 8 when halo came out I was probably the only person in Ireland with an Xbox 360 lol
arista_epperson that’s awesome though!
After Reach it's devolution.
Don’t be ridiculous.

@@thecatfather857 It's nice to see someone likes playing with shit. The rest of us will continue to play Bungie's games.
Halo was the fps that made me like fps games. It's funny but I just the other day started streaming the Halo Master Chief Collection on Mixer. I am now mission 7 of Halo 2. I'll upload them eventually edited on my UA-cam channel.
Thanks for the video Gameranx.
Great video dudes.
dislikes here comes the fortnite crying babies.....
Am I the only nerd who felt a little triggered when he referred to the Covenant as a species?
He also said the xbox 360 had a graphics card. Dude is dumb
I'm more triggered by the fact they showed a 1999 trailer and said it was in 2001.
Love your evolution series, continue making brilliant videos! Please do Smash Bros next.
I remember getting the OG Xbox for Christmas right after it came out. I was too young to understand at the time, but it was right after my dad made big strides in his career and our quality of life really improved. All I had was an N64 that I had played for years, and hadn't really experienced what games were or could be. I will genuinely never forget hooking up Halo for the very first time, having no idea what it was or what it was about, staring at the main menu, hearing the Halo theme, getting goosebumps, feeling intimidated, but filled with a sense of wonder and adventure. This game impacted me in a big way as a kid and also led to really great friendships that I never would have made if it weren't for this franchise.
Bungie should reallign themselves with Microsoft and start making Halos again, no one cares about Destiny when there's Halo
Doctor Sam that’s where you’re wrong kiddo
Halo stopped evolving after H3.
Ever since then, they've just been shoe-horning in elements from whatever games are popular at the time.
Amazing. Every single thing you just said is wrong.
Love your videos
Halo 3 provided so many memories with people I no longer know but enjoyed every infection match with. The community was so creative with the custome map maker and it's what gave halo 3 that extra element of fun.
Halo 4 was really off putting for me. I've been playing since CE.
Halo 4 is my least favorite.
Halo WILL reclaim its throne in 2020.
We will return to the times when it was a a crime to criticize the game. We’ve been sick and tired of activison and call of duties horrible and scummy mechanics and micro transactions.
We will return to the time with filled lobbies with everyone in the lobbies mics on hyped they are playing Halo and having a blast, raging, t bagging, joking, etc.
HALO WILL RETURN!
Halo 3 was my first Halo; and I'll never forget how crazy the graphics were and how fun those things the brutes drove were
Played CE, 2, 3, ODST, Reach, 4, and loved them all. I played abit of Halo Wars 1 and the beta for 2. Couldnt stand the story of 5.
Halo is one of the best series in my eyes. It helped me dive into gaming more and more. My most fond memories involve my 2 brothers and my dad playing through Halo 3. Reach became my favorite game despite the criticism it had, but I played the game to late, my dad passed just after Reach came out, and because my parents were divorced, my mom's side did not have the same gaming setup my dad did. I had to do it from scratch, fast forward a while later, my cousin and I played Reach often, playing anything from social matchmaking, custom games, Forging around for hours, even going into Ranked once, being demolished and never stepping into it again.
Halo is a series that brings people together, from the earliest LAN parties, to the games of today, with Reach's launch on Steam re-igniting a passion for so many.
I want to get the game on Steam, just to have that nostalgia again.
I remember when "Zombie mode" was a gentleman agreement to only use swords and not plasma pistols and grenades. When everyone just hunkered down in one of the rooms on the map.
Halo 2 was my first halo, at that point i wasn’t even a teenager yet but i was introduced to it and fell in love when my friend showed it to me during a sleepover, the first halo game i owned was reach and i was so excited when my parents got it for me. Now i’m 22 and still play every game, I actually only just recently played and completed halo wars and i enjoyed it
Man playing halo 3 with my friends when we had sleepovers were some of my best memories as a kid.
Halo: CE was not only my introduction to the franchise when it came out but also to being a gamer. The nostalgia is so strong that I continue to play it to this day and dare say that its now the only franchise that keeps me interested in owning an Xbox, at least until I build my first pc
Halo: Combat Evolved was the first time I was given the option to use a vehicle or not to traverse a level. Like before that game my experiences with "vehicle levels" were a hard loading screen transitions that make me drive to the destination and then a hard loading screen that put me back on foot, never both in the same session. Having the option to get in and out of a vehicle on the fly was absolutely mind blowing back in the day.
Been here since Halo 1. I remember getting our first Xbox and Halo 1... I wasn't great at the game (still not), but MAN it's fun! I was really scared to try out new things but I'm SO glad I did! I finally played Halo 2 and fell in love with it. I didn't get to play H3, Reach, or Wars 1 until 2011 but my god, did I have SO much fun doing it! I never got attached to 3 but I did with Reach. Still loving the franchise all these years later
Despite never owning an Xbox system, Halo is one of my most favourite game franchises.
I have so many good memories of playing it at my neighbours, friends, and cousins places over the years.
My first halo game was 3, my best friend just got an xbox 360. So on one of the first days he had it we just spent the whole night eating his moms cookies and playing threw the entire halo 3. It is one of my favorite experience with gaming and one of the reason i love it so much. We still play a lot of the halo multiplayer online together even though we are half way across the country from eachother.
When I was a kid, 5 or 6, we lived with my grandparents and my uncle also lived with us up in the attic, I can remember just begging to go up and watch him play Halo CE for hours and even sometimes he would let me play. Looking back, he'd let me play while he and my dad smoked pot on the other side of the attic, but man those were the days.
I’m old, so my first encounter with Halo was in college. Halo 1 LAN parties in the dorms was a revelation for me. So, a year or so later, when my girlfriend wanted to be able to watch movies at my apartment, I bought an Xbox, not just a DVD player, so could play Halo, too.
I love your video and your work and halo
Played the first Halo when I was a wee boi of 4 years and haven't stop playing halo since. Super excited to see that Halo Infinite is coming to PC and hoping Halo will stay with us for as long as it can.
My favorite thing about Halo is the start screen of Halo 2. It’s so therapeutic for my stress. Anyway, I have been playing since the original CE on Xbox, locally with friends, or hooked up to a pc and connected to other xboxes online. (Can’t remember the program) I stick to the mainline games, and plan to try out Guardian after i do my replay of every game leading up to Halo Infinite, I’m very happy they are launching the new xbox with a halo title, that’s huge!
The Halo series is the best video game series of all time. It’s campaigns and revolutionary multiplayers are unbeatable.
I really love Halo, It was the game that built up my childhood and raised me when my parents couldn't. I was especially addicted to Halo 2's multiplayer, I LOVED the gamemodes. And don't get me started on Halo 3's campaign and multiplayer- It was just fond memories- Late 2008 nights playing slayer with friends and a lot of energy drinks... If there's anyone who does or used to work for Bungie reading this, I just wanna say thank you for making my life as a teen easy and fun.
The original halo is what inspired me to create digital and 3d art back in 7th grade. Now it's my career. I'll always love Halo:CE
playing halo CE with my friends on blood gulch is some of my best gaming memories
My first halo was halo 2 and looking back at the graphics compared to now it seemed like I was actually looking at a real life world back then compared to now and seeing its sharp edges. It's crazy how much graphics have improved over the years.
I spent so so so much time on halo 1. My friends and I would stay up all night.
Man I remember doing legendary mode and how many attempts it took us.
That was so long ago now. That really made middle school for me.
First game I played in the series was Halo 2 with my cousin and my favourite experience was playing Halo Reach for the very first time on Solo Legendary. What an amazing game.
I have played Halo since the very beginning, so many awesome memories of connecting four TVs and four Xbox’s with 20 friends for an intense night of LAN party battles, something the Xbox Live can never replicate.
Iv been playing halo since the beginning. God i rememeberr spending HOURS and HOURS on the Silent Cartographer with my brother in co-op when we first got our OG Xbox and it came with a demo disc and it fortunately had a Halo demo on it. I can remember playing that level houndreds of times and me and my brother exploring so much of that map and getting into hog ramming wars and seeing who could get launched the highest from crashing the hogs head on into each other on the beach and giggling and laughing histerically at the hights we could get launched! All the fire fights we've had against eachother out of boredom or anger at one another, and all the Covenant iv slayed on that little Forrunner Island makes me smile to look back on. Once we finally got Halo me and him played that game for literall years and learned it like the back of our hand and continued to be our brotherly bonding time all the way to Halo 5.
Akkk.b,wwww the memories... 😊Thanks for making my child hood amd youth amazing Halo! 💯💯❤❤
Man such good memories! Started with halo 2 mainly. Of course, miss original Halo series by Bungie. Great scifi stories and game play. Just awesome 👌🏼
Halo 1 was my first eight years old 2005 343 guilty spark scared the shit out of me back then and I loved every minute of it
