Everything about halo brings me back to better days. Somehow I doubt another game can recreate the feeling
@@Talons97 wait destiny dead-ass added Halo weapons or Halo like weapons
The only game besides Halo CE I can think of that had that sort of "this changes everything" experience was maybe Hades.
Doing this for the Halo series should be a seriously fun watch, can’t wait
Bro when he gets to halo reach 🔥
I totally agree! Cant wait for more!
Halo CE: How Halo Changed Everything
Halo 2: How Halo defined online gaming
Halo 3: How Halo defined a generation
Halo Reach: How Halo stumbled.
Halo 4: How Halo suffered
Halo 5: How Halo's corpse was paraded through the city
Halo Infinite: How Halo died.
AGREED
@@nintendonerdjoseph Reach wasn’t a stumble at all, not even close. Reach was fantastic.
As many can attest to, living through the days of Halo 1-3 was such a treat and one of the best times ever in gaming. XBL was coming to life and Halo launches were HUGE events around the country. For those too young, Halo 2 and 3 launches were so huge I do not think we will ever see events like that ever again for a video game.
Their launches were historic for gaming. Halo 2 outsold every entertainment property at the time and Halo 3 was cited for low ticket sales at movie theaters the weekend it came out. Those two games blew up video games into the main stream stratosphere.
My friends and I went to the mall hours beforehand to be the firsts in line for Halo 2. That game and the Xbox Live (even with the rough launch lol) capabilities would dominate all our gaming lives for the next couple years. Live was like the wild west back then, but man were they some unbelievable times.
Yeah part of what made Halo 2 multiplayer so cool is that online console gaming was still this brand new frontier that felt so unique. The fact that you were suddenly playing with people from around the world was just mind-blowing, especially as a kid.
waiting in a line around the corner for midnight releases....good times
Kids these days unfortunately will NEVER KNOW just how BIG the HALO 2 AND HALO 3 LAUNCHES WERE.
Ugh... Remembering the old days. :( such a great time in gaming. Nobody cared about resolution or FPS or HZ.... it was about 1. Did the game look good? 2. Did the game PLAY good?
Watching JC and Milo's play through of all the halos almost made me emotional, re living the original trilogy and feeling an overwhelming sense of nostalgia and memories. Truly GOATED
when milo said john halo was the best moment of the whole playthrough
100% every now and then i look up people who have just started playing though the games for the first time and it's so fun to watch and gives me the feeling of playing them for the first time
I remember being blown away by enemy a.i. the first time i saw an elite run and hide behind a pillar and then start shooting. It made me feel like im actually fighting an enemy and not bullet sponges. And also little details like grunt runs when a plasma grenade is stuck while an elite will run towards you in a suicide attack. Halo literally revolutionized the fps genre in a lot of ways from checkpoints to barriers to shields, enemy a.i. attack patterns, vehicle fps gameplay, map hacks, Lan parties, 2 weapon switch etc.
even to this day halo ce have one of the best designed AI i've ever seen in a shooter.
Me too
Calling Two Betrayals a level "just as bad as the library" is a massive stretch. To each their own, but I think it's one of the most fun levels to replay.
Great video, though. A very well made retrospective.
I honestly think it might be my favorite level in the game.
Two Betrayals & Keyes are my favorites!
The multiplayer made this game amazing. I used to cart TV's across my suburb in shopping trolleys to play lan with friends.
Wholesome
same 😭😭😭
It was everything. The music, the campaign, the fun mp with friends.
I remember the first time I ever played Halo CE. My dad and I visited a friend of his, and his son, who was about my age, invited me to play Halo CE with him. It was amazing. We played co-op campaign, and I remember it being so weird that we were playing a shooter together and not fighting against each other. I knew there and then that Halo was special, and I was proved right over the years of playing it on the couch with my buddies.
co-op is so underrated.
This was my first Xbox game. I was WAYY too young to play it, I remember my dad watching me play it. It was the first mission in the campaign, the soldiers were running through the ship yelling “Get those bastards”(or something like that), I repeated that line spraying my AR, and my dad was furious I cursed at such a young age. Within 5 years, we were playing Halo 2 LAN tournaments with his work buddies, and their sons. Lots of snacks, and a bunch of us just having a good weekend. Man I miss that.
Agreed with your take on the aesthetics being a thousand times more engrossing in the original graphics.
However, you forgot to mention in AOTCR and two betrayals, the MOMENT TO MOMENT gameplay, which is what halo is about, is FANTASTIC, and in my opinion helps to alleviate the repetitive areas.
I was 11 in 2001, 14-15 in 2004, and 17-18 in 2007.
I lived through its golden age at the perfect time for gaming. Very fortunate.
Just hearing the theme makes the memories start flowing.
Well, in my opinion as an all time halo fan boy since it’s first release all those years ago Halo CE holds a special place in my heart and I still play it to this day. You forgot to mention that when they brought Halo to PC it opened up a whole new ball game when you were able to finally play online with other players. That shit was epic, and I still play it on my PC today. It never gets old, and I still find myself having a good time when I do play it. It’s truly a gem.
There's a reason why I often call anniversary graphics the brightness slider, it's so bright
I played Halo on MCC for the first time ever a couple years ago. Its insane how good the gameplay still holds up
I can't wait for you to tackle the rest. I have work in the morning, so I wonder if I'll finish this the first time.
The campaign did recycle maps, but the difference in enemies and gun play made the whole game a great trading ground. Playing the “library” and “two betrayals” on legendary taught you how to move, use grenades, shoot and reload. CE campaign was like a boot camp for the multiplayer. I never felt the same for the other games campaigns.
last year i played for the first time Halo Combat Evolved, and i loved every second of it, the game holds up to this day with no remake needed. both multiplayer and campaign
Seriously ?)
You really "loved every second of it"?) Even the mission The Keys, even the Library?... Did you even enjoy Every second of the mission Two Betrayals ?) (Unlike the author, of course😏)
I'm surprised... honestly surprised, that even now there can be people who, despite all the modern gaming industry, can still love Halo CE so much... as I loved it in my childhood, who (seems, thanks to my childhood inexperienced expectations) was able to love Halo CE as much as people in 2001, who had not previously seen a FPS on the console of the same level as this game !)
Halo CE is a historical game of its genre! So historical that even now Halo is something else, something of its own, far from both Military shooters and Arena shooters...
And for me, the Halo CE campaign... is still the best in the series, and it's not just because of "Nostalgia" !!
(much becomes clear in the video from The Act Man, with which I largely agree😌)
Honestly, I'm still sad deep inside that, after 21 years, the developers still haven't succeeded/didn't make an effort to make just the perfect version of halo CE (and I'm talking a lot about the gameplay now)... 😔
(and here you can already watch many videos from Ascend Hyperion about sandbox to make it more clear, again 😅)
Only thing it needs Is a firefight mode
Best way to end a long ass day
I have to be up early tomorrow to start my next school semester, but I'll be damned if I'm not gonna watch this before I sleep
You got to love halo CE’s 343 Guilty Spark’s level design
You can see on some parts barricaded rooms and even marines and covenant jackals dead close together up on crates as if the two enemies fought together for their lives against the horrific flood creatures.
Awesome video dude, got that nostalgia flowing.
Great video man. Hope we get to see more Halo retrospectives in the future.
Love the game reviews keep it up chop
I remember when me and my brother played halo ce together, after my dad beat it he let us on. We had a blast trying to save every marine possible and not letting one die, just for it to be fruitless in the end.
I mean, Johnson wasn't alone in getting back to Earth, who's to say some of those marines you saved didn't join him?
@kenton6804 long before Halo 2 came out. Nobody knew anything about Johnsons survival. The only thing we knew was Spark was floating around space and Chief was flying towards earth in a long sword
@@kenton6804 true
@@OlympianGift at the time yeah that’s also true. I liked to think they got off before
@OlympianGift It's true, we didn't know anything about other humans. That's not to say that none survived, only that we didn't know of any surviving.
Big difference between knowing they didn't versus not being aware if any did.
I love this guys videos. Makes me want to start my own channel
YESSS doing this for the halo series will be amazing to watch!
Was wondering what you might do once you covered most of the COD’s, good choice!
Man this brings back good memories!
Great video dude
Two Betrayals is one of the best missions in the game. Backtracking and seeing everything you once knew, now flood infested was the true oh fuck moment's of the game. And seeing covenant fight the flood for the first time in two Betrayals was INCREDIBLE!
people that think like you are typically those players that just run through a mission really fast without taking it all in.
Shameless plug for the video I did on my channel for this game. I am so glad that you mentioned the bit about the old vs. New graphics, I thought it was just me. Also, glad other people hated the library as much as I did
Thank you so much Ch0pper, I am writing a paper for college on how Halo changed gaming forever and I used your video for an incredible amount of information!
Cant wait for you to do the entire halo series😍😍🙏🏻🙏🏻
Being both a fan of Halo and of this channel, it's fun to see your thoughts on my childhood
Every time I see a video of someone playing Halo CE it makes me want to play it again. Fantastic game, still one of the best.
Sorry you’re so young man. That was the best era of gaming. 💯
Time to get some popcorn
Doing more game reviews (aside from cod) is dope
I played it on PC. Even in '07, the CE lobbies were very populated. What a great time! Yes, PC had online multiplayer and some amazing modded maps.
Damn dude.... I was not fortunate enough to experience the multiplayer of Halo:CE.... Lucky you
Chopper is just way based for switching over his content
Keep making your videos man, always a good day when you upload
09:48 exactly: Master Chief is more of a concept that a character; he has traits, but he is more of the ideal of the human warrior spirit, the imbodiment of it; in a sense, he reminds me of the character from a novella by Italo Calvino called "il cavalliere inesistente" (the non-existing knight), whose whole being is just a set of armour animated, pretty much, by the will to battle and win, and once he's done with his duties, he sort of vanishes, leaving the empty husk he once inhabited as a spirit to the character who became his squire. We are that squire, moving the armour in game, and Master Chief is the armour when the cutscenes resume and the plot advances: he sort of "exists" through us and merely due to the plot; hence why I think the ending of Halo 3 worked so well: he returned to the place where we fist met him, his call answered, his energies spent, his duties towards humanity completed.
its insane 343 keeps getting chances with the IP, there's really no good reason we shouldn't have a decent halo to play in 2023. the prime days of halo were something where you really had to be there to understand what the community was like. nothings come close to recreating it since, and I don't think any game ever will at this point. but it's crazy to think they pulled that off all those years ago now and it was amazing to be apart of. truly a shame how far 343 has tarnished its legacy, there's for sure people now that would never believe halo ever had a "prime". can only hope the rumors are true that they'll only be "consulting" over future titles and a proper studio gets a chance to revive the once legendary system seller. luckily this next year is stacked and gears of war leaks are starting to come out
I'll never understand why people dislike the Library so much. It was a truly unique challenge that served as the perfect setting for co-op.
I just finished library ten minutes ago after not doing a playthrough of halo in YEARS. I always enjoyed the flow of that level, I still did just now. I don’t get it either. Those couple of hold out moments are still pulse pounding as you scramble around.
It's my favorite level in the series. In my opinion Halo CE is as perfect as an single player game you can get.
Heck bro, I enjoyed it solo (I'm soulless aren't I)
@@williamgrant3231 Not at all. It's my favorite level for solo as well.
@@jimmyrodriguez5670 Oh sweet. Glad to hear that I'm not alone in thinking you don't need friends to enjoy the library.
The Halo community: Halo is dead I should branch out to other games like cod or stuff like that
Chopper: *TIME TO TALK ABOUT HALO LET'S GO :D*
The Halo community can be heavily over dramatic on some things
Another banger
Pleaseeeeee do the rest of the series ❤️
Halo CE was every kid's dream, and being 11 years old when it launched in November 2001, I wanted it BADLY. I was lucky enough to get an XBOX an a copy of Halo for Christmas that year and boy was it blown away by it! It was the best looking game I had ever seen, and the gameplay was second to none at that time. What a time to be alive, it was awesome.
How am I just seeing this on my feed! Ch00pah and Halo!?
i have seen so many videos like this about halo but i can never get enough. I fucking love this game
Halo 1-3 was such an amazing time in video game history. In general the video gaming industry at that time was simply amazing.
Halo 1 was something else, way ahead of its time. It made way for Halo 2, 3 and every successful FPS after that.
The Halo CE LAN party events were so much fun with family and friends. The way Xbox live and Halo 2 gave life to console online gaming was crazy.
The Halo 3 midnight release was my favorite midnight launch ever and I didn’t even have an Xbox 360 yet when it released lol
One of my favorite details about this game is at the beginning of the swamp level there are flood moving around you in the fog. You can barely see them and because they were marines they show up on your radar as friendly. It’s a super sick detail.
I get the criticism, but personally I loved Two Betrayals. To me, it was the level that best demonstrated just how small you were in this fight, but simultaneously showed how much of an impact you were having. Those big open expanses where the Covenant were fighting the Flood who were fighting the Sentinels - yeah I get that it was just Assault on the Control Room in reverse with those pit stops in the Banshee added in, but the variety of encounters, weapons, enemies, landscapes was where Halo really came together for me. Great video! Earned a sub from me.
I don’t get the criticism. It really doesn’t bother me going back through the same path. I do think that you need to play on legendary to appreciate halo. If you’re just flying through on normal then yeah it can be boring but legendary is a different story.
I agree. Btw is CE your favorite Halo Campaign?
@@goldheartodyssey4486 torn. I think halo 2 is my favourite campaign then ce,reach, 3 and odst.
Halo and Max Payne were the most influential shooters at the turn of the century.
I like how the new graphics still use the colors that you said made the covanent stand out and yet still use that point to dog on the updated graphics.
6:22 CE got online multilplayer in 2003 in the PC version, year prior to Halo 2.
AOTCR is actually my favorite level in CE.
22:04 It's not all Flood after that point, you do encounter with Covenant Spec-ops unit in the elevator and there's some cool lore about that.
And about multiplayer, CE absolutely has the best Halo multiplayer out there, by far.
Magnum is the perfect jack of all trades weapon. It's never the best option in any situation, but it's always a good option in any situation. Health packs are actually super important, especially at higher levels because you don't wanna die to 1 nade when your health is yellow, you want it full. CE has awesome maps; Damnation (my all time favorite), Chill Out, Prisoner, Hang em high, and all the Big team maps pretty much. Actually the spawns in CE are awesome, not horrible. It may feel horrible when you spawn right front of your enemy, but that's not the game's fault, it's your teammates fault. In CE you can actually control the spawns if you know what to do. If you die, your teammate gets to a specific location and boom, you spawn elsewhere. I also think the kill feed does its job perfectly. I wouldn't want some stupid audio or hitmarks when I get a kill.
But the things I most love about CE multiplayer is: No melee lunge, static weapon and power-up spawns and of course, weapon and power-up physics. There are so many nades in different maps to get you a sniper or Overshield and you really need to master them at higher level. It's a shame they got rid of those physics and static spawns. And added a melee lunge...
One thing to say about Halo CE, my dad bought it when I was very young, shortly after it came out. I had it for PC and it had fully functioning multiplayer. You could even host servers. It was truly incredible and sort of blew my mind. Other games I played at the time like Battlefield 1942 were amazing but nothing could match Halo's online experience.
For the sequel, take a shot every time he mentions difficulty or Legendary mode lol
Your style reminds me of old school Favyn and BDobbinsFTW - what I mean is you give classic 2015 halo UA-cam quality content
It's wild to me that someone who was only 3 years old when this came out is making a video about it. Halo blew my damn mind when it came out and I'll always remember the first time I played it.
Halo combat evolved will always be a masterpiece game and will have much love in the game community and amazing video Ch0pper :]
Some of the best moments of my life are thanks to this game.
Me and 20 of my closest high school friends, putting countless hours, playing together on 4 different Xbox’s and 4 different TV’s.
Man. This game was so state of the art. We have never seen anything like Halo before it came out. So thankful for Bungie giving us all this masterpiece.
This was my first gaming experience ever, i was 6 when this first came out and i was hooked. Please make a halo 2 video🥺
Choppa is gonna chop!
Playing this game in 2001 as 10 years old back then was pretty awesome. My dad allowed me to play Halo CE compared to GTA 3 at the time, because I wasn't killing humans. So technically Halo CE was my first rated M game.
The best
Forget the friends on a couch… fill a church on a Friday night with 8 TV’s and cables running around an entire auditorium lol it was epic!
We used to dangle the router out the window by an extention cord and play team upstairs VS team downstairs
Man, I can't agree about Assault on the Control Room and Two Betrayals. I love those levels.
My first online game of CE on MCC the game immediately began with everyone on my team betraying eachother lol it was everything I had hoped it would be
I first played Halo PC (GearBox Software port) back around 2003-2005 ish, and that's what made me fall in love with Halo. Been a huge, diehard Halo fanatic since.
I did the same as we never had an Xbox. Got one now though 😊❤
This game brings back so many memories.. I never had the original xbox but my uncle had the og xbox and I spent a lot of my time round there playing that and some other games.. it was then that I fell in love with Xbox and halo. And for all PlayStations good games over the years, absolutely nothing comes close to how halo originally made me feel all these years ago
Assault on the control room was top notch.
4 person split screen era was truly different. nothing compares.
17:09 *the breaking from halo 5* “are you challenging me?”
Influenced design choices:
-Designated melee and grenade buttons
-Aim assist and bullet magnetism in conjunction with wider hitboxes to compensate for the difference between joysticks and mouse aiming
-Regenerating shields/health to allow for more action, fewer pickups, and faster pacing. Hypothetically. It's a design philosophy largely tainted by games that abuse it and H2.
-As many weapons as there are eyeballs
I was 12 when Halo came out. Just imagine my grades that year! I still play it once a year.
I love the Library level. so damn good and creepy.
the craziest map in any pvp setting ive ever seen is the halo CE map where it's essentially two massive walls facing each other and only way to get to the other side were these teleporting doors, but you could also shoot across to the other side. but boy did we have fun.
“There’s no visual feedback for when you get a kill”
Well. I mean. There’s the body on the floor surrounded by blood after the death scream. And the…kill-feed in the corner.
god i miss the flood, too bad 343 refuses to touch them and force awful new types of enemies down our face instead.
Halo CE it was the first game that i ever picked up and it became a part of my very SOUL truly one of the greatest games out there.
If there’s one thing I love more than COD, it’s halo. Can’t wait for the rest of this series!
Ce was the first halo i played at 8yo
Shortly after it came out i got hooked. Over the years playing heavily into the halo series. H1 and h2 sre the 2 campaigns i come back to. And ce ive played the most. It really has a timeless feel imo
YES I FUCKING LOVE HALO
When are you going to do a retrospective on Call of Duty Modern Warfare 3, Chopper?
CE is my favorite Halo game by leaps and bounds. It's damn near flawless in my eyes. Funnily enough the only gripe I have with it isn't the reuse of levels and the infamous Library. I actually like every level in CE. No, the things that irks me the most in the entire game is the flashlight. Why does it have a time limit?!
Just imagine what it would've been like if halo was released on the Mac when it was a third person shooter
I remember going into HMV in the UK to buy an Xbox and I seen this alien shooting game. No idea what it was about. 21 years later still doing it. Love halo. Only reason I never bought a ps4.
The Flood freaked me out as a kid and to this day I still prefer the hoorah camaraderie of the first act.
Ever notice on the box art the banshee's are opened like there's no pilot in them?
I remember 6 yr old me shitting my pants with a shotgun saying “don’t touch me” through the full library mission then when I played the anniversary as a 15 yr old still having the same feeling. Amazing game
Halo was my first coop FPS.
This is it baby hold me
Watching this in 144p the way halo meant it to be
One finally note you didn't touch on was just how good the co-op campaign is.
I feel like CE and a lot of older games were good at slowing the pace down to help you THINK about things without taking away control
Ngl an open world Halo-type third person game with monsters walking around sounds sweet as hell.
2 betrayals is my favorite level
“Hey”
“Yea?”
“You ever wonder why we’re here?”
