Reacting to more HALO cinematics!

The Halo 3 marketing campaign was unreal to witness especially as a kid. Literally every kid in middle school had a 360 and was there online every day after school. It was all anyone talked about.

The people who made the Halo TV series admitted that they wanted to tell their own story. So they had the Halo IP. But decided to tell a story that wasn't Halo. Forward Unto Dawn is, imo, the only true Halo series. (Basically, a TV movie that was originally released in part.) It is actually SUPER GOOD.

the TV show needed to be this. Like, a Band of Brothers in space. I had no idea what that soapy BS was we ended up getting.

Steve Downes has voiced John-117 in every game he's been in.

Funny how you say Landfall would've been great as a TV show because in some regard it was Neill Blomkamp's test for his vision of the Halo movie that was in development at the time but was later canceled due to studio BS. But Alex Garland's script for the movie is still online on halopedia.

Man the Halo 3 live action ads were the peak of their content for me. I loved the historical documentary setup they did that was so far removed in terms of tone and pacing from the games, no master chief, or real aliens. Just old guys talking, but it was such a powerful little serious that did a really great job of encapsulating some of the most important aspects of Halo at the time in terms of this desperation humanity had.

17:17 “on the seventh day…” lol good ol bungie.

Halo 3 was the most anticipated game of it's time. The ad campaigns, the hype, the memories playing with friends online for hours and hours. Brings me back to some core memories

We are ODST is one of the best live action Halo trailers ever made. They used actual Hungarian special forces, and the behind the scenes doc is incredible.

IDK if you have played Halo: Reach yet, but the "Remember Reach" Trailer at 45:30 the spartan that takes the bomb onto the ship was the first casualty of the spartan Squadron that you see in the trailer. In the game you play as the replacement of that exact squad. So the trailer is a part of the story as well.

Thank you for giving me a healthy outlet to cry a bit. I grieve weird and getting emotional with your sweet reactions is one small but special way that helps.

Watching some of these that I have seen parts of or not at all after all these years is crazy. And watching those I do really takes me back and leaves me breathless for a moment. I bet I still have some of the VidMaster challenge explanation videos from ODST on my 360 hard drive. Don't ask me how to find them by memory, but I remember being able to download it and would watch it sometimes just for fun. It's amazing how like one comment on stream said that the marketing is sometimes better or exceeds some games itself. I remember in Halo 5 listening to the Hunt the Truth marketing and actually being excited, even though the game didn't turn out that way at all. It's crazy how when you really try, and put more than just money for fancy graphics into something, you can make something that transcends the game itself and is remembered years later.

Excited to see you play halo 1 :) and especially halo 2 with the anniversary graphics

“The green alien planets” yes, that would be earth

Ive played halo since like 2006 so my first playthroughs and experiences are a distant memory. Watching people experience the games for the first time is like reliving those memories, cant wait for you to play

Master chief knows he’s humanity’s best hope but yet he acts like he’s just another soldier. Waiting for orders quietly.

It is true, the Covenant tech is very beautiful to look at. What’s not so beautiful is what they do with it lol

As an avid halo fan I'm so excited and overjoyed to see someone else experience this for the first time!! I look forward to your stream on twitch!

i like it when people ask questions it means youll get answers while playing the games

Cheif saying no soilder should be honor for doing what is expected. Is the most badass selfless qoute ever. Instand tears.
