I don't usually do shooters, but Halo's a masterpiece. It's the game that everyone played other than Smash, whaddya gonna do?
Bungie put this ridiculous amount of love into these games and it shows. Follow me as I detail the rise of the Halo trilogy. Also sorry for luxuriating in pathos this time, it just felt appropriate, you know?
I run a pretty consistent Patreon page as well - please consider supporting me if you love what you see and have the means! www.patreon.co...
I did that Fable video as well - little more negative, but my show's a real grab-bag. Apparently I'm sidling up to Microsoft. Take a look if you haven't: • The Fall of Fable
On that, note, I also covered their Age of Empires series. Check that out if you have the time: • The Rise of Age of Emp...

I'm not ready for the fall of halo video :(
Didn't expect you here, wow
Hopefully we can see Halo rise back up with Infinite, Swag.
Wow
assuming if u werent playing the Broken Bond, you was playing halo
me neither. the end times are near.
Kbash is really underrated tbh
He really is
fuck yeh he is... so is this guy called SpotCam
He deserves all the subs forever
On gawd
Unbelievably underrated
I don't really care for the FPS genre in general but the Halo Franchise holds a special place in my heart. I complete Combat Evolve at least once a year
Combat evolved = forever classic! We were cleaning a buddy’s attic & came across his xbox heavy, which was taken out of the “donate” pile when a copy of this game was discovered... turned an heroic day into a something legendary! Hehe even revisiting it’s like good times within good times
@@LeoRex13 "heroic day into a something legendary!" please tell me this pun was intended
I play the trilogy every couple years
Last name First name the answer is in your ♥️
Same altho the only other FPS games i recommend are F.E.A.R and the new Doom games and Half Life
I was there when KBash's Halo 3 Legendary achievement didn't pop. There were 4 of us, and he was the only one that didn't get it. RIP.

The sheer energy and glee in this vid alone makes this probably my favorite Halo Retrospective ever.
But you called Halo Reach "forgettable white noise" so 0/10 will call MAC strike on your house.
I don't know why people are being so hard on Reach lately. Yeah it had sprint and armor lock along with some weapon redundancy issues and not the best voice acting, but its campaign was awesomely designed, the story was moving, the Spartan customization was addicting and aesthetically tight, Forge and Firefight were perfected, and the multiplayer was the most expansive and satisfying at the time. I'd say its successes far outshine its missteps and it's hard to blame them for trying new things. I put more hours into Reach than the previous 2 games combined, and I played those pretty religiously.
NakeyJakey has a great series retrospective on Halo that amazing as well
We need to glass his house.
PANICBLADE I’m glad the Reach Evolved mod exists because it allows me to enjoy the game even more.
@@PANICBLADE People realized most people like cause it was their first Halo
I implore you to go back and check out ODST one more time, and pay special attention to the music and atmosphere it presents. I genuinely do think it stands as a high point in the series.
Halo Hills, Silent Halo is what I called it lol
I never got the reason for the jazz, even if it was cool, or that kind-of-detective-story, but the moody noire tone is spelled out in the opening crawl. "Humanity is losing." While in terms of FPS, Halo's world is actually on the forgiving end for anyone who isn't the main character, it's still a rough ride for even elite marines.
3 and ODST are my favorites in the series
100% Agree
You thibk wrong neega
7:32 I'll never forgive Chief. Bastard left Private Dustin Echoes behind.
Luckily, in a later installment, we learn that he linked up with Marauder Shields.
The "fall" video gonna break my heart 😔😔😔😔
......
There is no fall for halo

Video Game: **has at least 3 games in it's series**
KBash: *It's Free Real Estate*
I feel like the split in the community between 2, 3, and reach really has a lot to do with which one you had a better group of friends to play with. That can make or break a halo game's multiplayer.
I had the most fun with Halo 1 pc and Halo reach xbox 360, but those were also the only two that i owned lol. played the rest at friends houses
This 100% I feel like most people’s favorite Halo just depends where they are in life at the time. Halo 2 and 3 came out during my high school and college years and I spent thousands of hours playing both with my closest friends. Regardless of how good the other Halo games are, it would be nearly impossible for them to match the fun and hype of 2 and 3 because we just don’t have the time to play together anymore. We’re all in our mid 30s with careers and families of our own now, spread out in different states and even different countries for some. It takes months worth of coordinating schedules for a some of us to get together now for a few hours much less be able to put hundreds or thousands of hours into Halo.
I actually just binged every single k bash video and I'm certainly an even bigger fan of the channel.
The halo games just have an atmosphere that is so unique that it always leaves me dumbfounded.
One huge can
Ive been replaying through the series and have had so many happy memories. i will say that the story of Reach hits WAAAAAY different in 2020.
The pistol in halo was so broken it made the game. You could snipe from halfway across the map with one hand, it was glorious. Also, keep up the good work dude, you deserve way more subs than you have but i got a feeling you're headed towards great things as a content creator
It's one of those cases where there was a blatant game balance issue. But the CE Pistol is SO MUCH FUN! To this day I wish they'd balanced Halo 2 by buffing everything but the Pistol instead of bring the Pistol down.
Even as someone who didn't have a 360 until 2010 (woof), 2007 was such a freaking hype year with Halo 3 coming out. The excitement was palpable.
Halo 1 has one thing that is really underappreciated and I wish was in more first-person shooters. Is that the fact if you throw a grenade, and it lands next to other grenades it will detonate all of them giving you a mini red barrel level explosion which I wish wasn't more games.
I love that feature, but damn did it get me killed a lot in the campaign.
@@heroofhyrule6970 oh absolutely that's usually one of two things that kill me when I revisit Halo CE. The other of course being the sneaky Rocket Flood.
No betrayal has ever hurt more than after I played 3 and ODST back in the day, walking into GameStop, buying Halo Wars expecting more of the same gameplay and coming home to a top down strategy game(or whatever it would be called). I know some people love Halo Wars, but my 9 year old heart was in shambles after wasting my birthday money on it. Luckily I was able to trade for a game of equivalent value and ended up with Left 4 Dead.
Rusty Shackleford I thought they were cool aerial shots. I’d legitimately never seen an RTS before lol. In my mind Halo = Master Chief FPS game. I was not very bright lol.
Never expected to see Halo covered here, but man am I glad it was. Really hope that ODST, Halo Wars, Reach, and 4 aren't lumped into a "decline of Halo" vid since they're not really worse they're just different. 5 was where the series dropped off a cliff for real. "The Evolution of Halo" would probably be good for most of those titles.
yo im in the same opinion, halo 4 wasnt worce, it was just different. im kinda tired of all the "different = bad" arguements on the halo subreddit, im glad that halo infinite looks good.
@@wesleyfreeman5918 At the very least even if Halo Infinite turns out to be a dumpster fire it'll have given us Craig.
Surprising to hear someone who didn't enjoy ODST or Reach as much
Compared to the OG 3 games. I would say they are amazing, but not on their level.
bombomos I can see that, I wasn’t a gamer at the time of the OG 3 releases so ODST was my first Halo with 3 coming shortly after(except for a super old PC demo of Combat Evolved that had 1 mission and Blood Gulch multiplayer with a decent community), then I worked my way back. If I had been part of the hype I’d probably value the OG games much more than I do.
@@jonesjones6279 ahhh see you always remember your first fondly. Yeah ODST was amazing! I think it has my second favorite OST. And walking around the city as the rookie exploring, was matched by any other game. So I think it is all about which you started with.
bombomos perfectly said bro
In my personal opinion, Reach is on par with the original trilogy, but ODST is quite inferior. While an awesome game, story and overall experience, it never really resonated with me. Could just be my experience with it. Still very, very good.
This trilogy is such a triumph in gaming. It didn’t even try to reinvent anything it just went it’s own way and stayed simple.
Back then, all I had was a Dreamcast with few games like Sonic Adventure 1 & 2, GTA 2 ,RE Code Veronica and.... that's about it. I loved these games. Especially Sonic Adventure. But I didn't find myself playing my games that much.
And I only fired up my Dreamcast when I felt like there's really nothing to do. Because I wasn't interested in playing video games at all.
After getting the OG Xbox with Halo of course. Suddenly, I was glued to this game and played it for hours. Everyday non stop. It got to the point where I finished the Campaign on legendary twice. And I had so much fun playing with my friends and bros on LAN parties.
I was then blown away by how amazing video games are. After that, I started buying a countless number of games for my OG Xbox. To the point where I got interested into buying a PS2.
And that's how my journey with gaming started. Thanks to Halo.
One thing I think 3 doesn’t get enough credit for is just how much it’s campaign’s gameplay really went all out on making you feel more powerful. The first level for example ends with fighting an enemy adjacency to the final boss of 2, only when you kill him that Gravity Hammer is yours, and every mission sees you using the big guns consistently. In CE and 2 missions were fairly reserved and power weapons like the rocket launcher felt like a big deal, but in 3 the game understood just how fun having them was in combination with the other mechanics and physics so multiple levels could feature you in a warthog full of marines armed with fuel Rod guns just absolutely tearing the level up. Super fun, you love to see it.
It honestly warms my heart seeing a bunch of people talk about halo recently. I have been working through the CE campaign for the first time and rekindling my love I had for this series. While reach still means a lot to me because I spent the most time playing it, that original series is downright groundbreaking even to this day. While the multiplayer of halo feels boring today compared to all the advancements we have had in game design, the campaigns still hold up really fucking well. It's nutty to think that halo CE has more complex and nuanced AI than modern games, a game nearly 2 decades old and it was thought out that well. Just as a whole, from gameplay, music, and story, the halo games were on another level.
Honestly I don't think we will ever see another zeitgeist like Halo. In this day and age we get distracted way to quick to all turn our heads to something like Halo. Back in '07-'11 halo was big enough that if you weren't playing it you heard of it. Literally my first time using our first computer was me going to RUclips and happening to see Halo videos on the homepage. I even remember the title, it was "Halo 3 Tricks Episode 70 Pinball Wizard" just searched it up, it's 12 years old at this point. That means it has been longer since I first watched that video than how long I was on the planet when I watched it because I would've been 10 at the time. I became a huge halo fan from that RUclips series and I remember even emailing the channel owner and asking if I could join his squad when I got an Xbox for Christmas, he said sure but I never pursued it because I realized later how he recorded and how you had to record videos in general ( at that time it involved jury rigging a camcorder with some av cables to send the image out from the TV to the camcorder, this was years before capture cards caught on). God what a fucking nostalgia bomb bro.
"A bit of a fixation... on his ass" I feel like this is a Christopher Walken reference.
it's cool as hell to see so many people talking about halo again, it seems like right now it's the most popular it's been since 2007
also good shit on using the refined campaign mod for CE
Bruh, that last bit, just hit home.
Amazing work just like always, can't wait for the next one.
Undoubtedly, the Halo franchise became part of the collective of videogame culture and a household name. A truly great game series that stands among the great videogame franchises like Mario Zelda, Smash Bros, Metal Gear, etc.
Halo is truly a game that brings people together. My uncle introduced it to me when I was a small child and when I was older I connected with my little brother through Halo. I wish I could play with my uncle again...
The Halo trilogy will always hold a special place in my heart (especially 2 and 3). They came out during my high school and college years and I played them with a group of really good friends. We put thousands of hours into 2 and 3. Now we’re all in our 30s and between careers, family/kids, and living in different states and even different countries, it’s impossible to get together and play these days. Even if Halo Infinite is fantastic, it still won’t be able to match the magic of the original trilogy because I’m at a different place in life.
I was riding the wave until you hit me with those feels at the end. I remember playing halo 3 custom games with my friends and playing for hours at a time, but now we all are doing our own thing. Hearing that ending and the loss of that feeling that was so cherished just broke my heart. ಥ_ಥ
Good Vid tho
*_That theme hit me in feels, really hard. This was my childhood..._*
I remember when Halo 3 was the only game people would talk about for the longest time.
Remember pulling up the friends list on Xbox Live and seeing nothing but Halo 3 and Call of Duty 4. Those were the days.
Halo 2 was the all-consuming one. It wasn't "which game should we play", it was "which Halo 2 mode should we play?" Halo 3 had more, better competition. Which was a good thing, but I would be lying if I said I didn't have some nostalgia for that brief period of time where you never had to discuss which game to play.
I have never played a FPS game or owned an Xbox. Your pure enthusiasm in the first few minutes alone has me wanting to buy the Masterchief Collection
Do it
21:52 that part really hit my feels and I don’t think it is over dramatic. When I think back to the times I spent in halo as a kid getting home from school excited to play with friends or play the story or achievement hunting or tryna rank up online, it really does give me that bitter sweet feeling of nostalgia in my chest that I imagine is how old people that reminisce about their younger years feel. There’s no going back to that and it was something that I feel could only be achieved in that era, but I’m happy I made those memories and I think back very fondly. I know it’s damn near impossible to recreate that same feeling but I hope the next halo game can at least bring back a sliver of how I felt playing halo as a kid. It’ll always hold a special place in my heart. Thank you bungie
:)
Apparently getting blessed today
Why do you not have over 100k subs you’re hilarious AND your videos are well edited and structured. This is probably my favorite Halo retrospective video to watch and I’ve actually rewatched it multiple times. You make good content KBash and I look forward to your later work.
I hope Infinite can return us to those glory days, even if it's only in spirit.
After hearing him say "it's a real splodey game" is an official quote I would like to petition for a Kbash Out of Context account on Twitter.
love these videos. other people with a similar style take jokes that were never funny in the first place and drag them out to 30 or 40 seconds of pure cringe, but your jokes are funny, short and snappy, making these an enjoyment to watch rather than a test to see how much shitty humor you can take
K-bash is the best game commentary channel!!!!! I love every video, i got shadow of the colossus because of this channel. Im bout this shit all day keep bringing it!
Your upload schedule is legendary, especially considering the quality of writing in these.
I'm never going to forget staying up late with my grandpa playing all of halo 3 split screened and beating it together
It's a shame that the most accessible option to get CE is the worst one. MCC on PC is not good. It actually makes me feel sick from one thing. It can run at either 60 or 120 fps, but some animations and projectiles run at 30fps. Amomg a whole heap of other issues
I've never had any of the issues you've just mentioned. The only real issue I only ever have with mcc is my co-op connection, also 120fps? Do you have your fps locked in your graphics card option?
@@Chr0maY no. I heard that people also had the issue in 120fps. I play at 60fps and I can see the projectiles and all cutscenes run at 30fps no matter what. Look at the projectiles carfully and you'll see that they are jittery. You can test it with a fully charged plasma pistal. Or with the cutscenes, look at the start of the game and look at the characters when the move or when a soldier drives a warthog. You'll see that the jitter when they move
@@teneesh3376 halo 2 anniversary's cutscenes are locked because they are pre-rendered the other games cut scenes are rendered in engine and aren't actually locked if your pc can support it, also how can you tell that the particles are actually running at 30 fps? Most projectiles in halo are either just a collection of a few images or small meshes. The actuall little sizzles on the plasma pistol and other particles run at separate frame rates for either performance reasons or aesthetic choices. Its something I actually do often when working with unity's particle system. Besides, the Blam engine isn't exactly the easier of engines to work with, Trust me.
@@Chr0maY talking about CE, not 2. But there is a different problem there I found there
@@teneesh3376 I was referring to all of the games when I was talking about the particles.
How the fuck does kbash only have 60k subs? This dude deserves AT LEAST over 100k, your videos are great, man!
Damn homie, I was not expecting that gut punch of an ending, but I FEEL it.
Ty for putting all these out , it makes my day to listen to them and do my school work
I feel so nostalgic, yet so sad.
Whered all the time go.
Kbash is one of those youtubers that can make a video about anything interesting and entertaining, even stuff that sounds like it might not be interesting to you.
Kbash is surprisingly art. Seriously, I didn't even play most the halos aside from 3 and reach but the ending of this video made me nut and simultaneously shed a tear. It kinda hurts seeing his popularity compared to his efforts.
I will never forget the BELIEVE ad from Halo 3.
The halo games have left a mark on me bigger than any other piece of gaming media. And not just the bungie games, I even love the 343 games. Guess you can say I’m just a halo fan.
Ce should have made the industry understand that enemy variety is important with fpses. Weird how they most go in the exact opposite direction
Your ending rant makes me tear up every time
I recommend you the Marathon trilogy. It's the closest thing to what would had happened if Yoko Taro developed Halo.
I dare you to say that lone wolf is white noise. Bout to throw hands.
I loved the transition into the theme. That choir gets me every time.
But what I never understood is how the choir ended up with all the attention. Steve Vai is doing things to his guitar in that track that would result in his fingers being blurred if viewed in Japan.
So I have this theory that an fps’ fun level is entirely dependent on 3 factors. Not in any order, weapons, options(like literal options. Difficulty, colorblindness, general accessibility), and how the enemies when mixed change everything. Enemies on their own, should have an optimal way to kill. But when mixed and matches should absolutely require adaptability and create emergent gameplay. You should feel like a human calculator with the flow state of taking in all the info and picking your best way forward. And the best games (doom 2 old and new, halo, nightmare reaper to name a few) just adding or removing one enemy type from an encounter changes everything. That’s what makes them truly fun I think.
Halo was the first video game i ever played at age 6. I will never forget this series
I amazed you managed to make an entire Halo 3 video without mentioning the Ryu Hayabusa armor cosmetic for multiplayer. As a fellow NG fan that armor is the singular reason I played Online PvP
I'm surprised you don't consider Reach as part of the rise, it's arguably the best Halo game.
Bloom exists tho
Reach killed the competitive scene and retconned Fall of reach
Favorite Halo is still Halo CE. Enjoyed the whole trilogy including Reach and ODST.
Halo 4 was so-so, but Halo 5 was terrible.
What are your thoughts on Halo Infinite so far? I think it looks promising.
@@papounator8843 Well so far so good. But every trailer of video game always looks good. We see the real game when its comes out. But still, i dont think i gonna buy new console for just one game.
Same, except halo 3 was my favorite
I feel pretty similar, the original 3 are the best, Reach is still great and ODST fills a neat niche role, 4 was decent and upon reflection is still "worthy" of being called Halo, and 5 is just a dumpster fire.
@@MALICEM12 Was about to type a comment identical to yours, so instead I'll just go 'same'. Oh, and Halo Wars 1 and 2 are both freaking awesome. It really shows that Halo was originally an RTS, because it still works just fine when you zoom out to the level of command.
KBash sounds like Sensei Ishikawa in that opening scene and I can't unhear it
Ah the good old days of gaming it brings back memories
This is the first video of yours I’ve seen and it was fantastic
17:16 yep I was definitely one of those. The game really wanted you to use the BR but I always loved the Assault Rifle and it was fun making it work in H3. With enough skill, there was alot of things you could pull off in that game if you really wanted, it just had a lot going for it.
love that intro and the halo bit after the intro
Just finished mcc on steam, it truly was a blast from the past.
Can't wait for Infinite, 343 promised us a restart for the series, more in line with the classics.
Some people are worried bc of the graphics, but for me the gameplay, story and the atmosphere are more important.
Great Video btw.
A tear fell down my I hearing Never Forget at the end
Damn, every video you make is solid. Makes me want to get back into editing/writing RUclips videos.
Man you always have the best thumbnails
Good God! This retrospective was so well done!
Your thumbnails are like truly amazing, the best thumbnails on the platform seriously.
Kbash more like ga-wow what a great video man, I could really feel this one hit deep
I remember two friends and I were trying to get an achievement on the escape portion of the final level. We all had ghosts and had a blast racing each other, good times.
I completely agree with the original trilogy being the Halo glory days. You were spot on with this video .
I've been playing since Halo 1 as a young boy with my older brother and his friends and nothing beats the original trilogy, but I will always remember Reach for that depressy campaign that kept it real af.
>Halo 3 ODST and Reach >”Just White Noise.” What
Just replayed Halo Combat Evolved again, that game still holds up today, especially with the Remastered graphics on.
I honestly think the remaster is ugly af. Completely misses the vibe of the og art style.
The remaster is vibrant in color and Missing the mystery intented the fog is basically gone
Your videos are art, the kino of youtube
Waiting a light year🤔🤔🤔 is gonna be very counterproductive considering its a distance
As someone who just finished playing ODST, my feelings for it is similar but I hope Reach is much better with how praised the campaign is
Great shit on this one bro, you need to be a top reviewer tbh. Your meme references are T1.
My mans cranking out videos Expeditiously I luv it 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
I found myself randomly thinking about ODST earlier today, too. We must be on the same wavelength.
Even if you haven't played it before, listen to the soundtrack of that game! It's the best in the series... as well as the gameplay. Controversial opinion!
Even though the story is distracting as a big ol' Firefly reunion, it's the moodiness of the Rookie searching the city of New Mombasa on a rainy night for clues of his squad's whereabouts that makes the game.
Romeo's busted up sniper rifle, the burning headquarters of ONI, Dare's helmet... watching the Rookie put it all together to find out where they went to the tunes of the bluesy soundtrack make this the best, and most down-to-Earth Halo game. At least to me.
Shame what happens to the Rookie in the novel set after the game's events, though. Real bummer. The game is pretty good, though.
Kbash you do the damn thing . You're a bad man , inna good way
Best part of the online game play was a good solid TTK that allowed for people to have options mid gun fight. Why I prefer halo significantly over your typical modern military shooter.
Seriously man. Keep going. You got the right stuff for this
still just as good a video as ever, can't wait to see the next part
became one of my favorite youtubers over the past 2 weeks
All the trilogy Halo games are kinda sad to me, not because they're not great but because Bungie never really had enough time to implement everything they wanted to which is insane because they still managed to make a ground breaking and incredibly fun game every time. All the people who worked at Bungie for those all nighters and office sleepovers have to be commended for not just working at a job but making that job their life and pride.
The edit at 6:24 is smoooooth
> It really drags in the Library
Watch the IGN "Devs react to speedruns" video for Halo 1. During the library section the devs talk a lot about how it's way too long and boring, and they joke about how the guy who was making that level just never stopped making more level and no one wanted to be the one to tell him to stop.
I don’t mean to sound negative but I went back and played Halo: CE and for some reason it just felt like it didn’t age extremely well. Possibly because the older I’ve gotten the more “tactical” a player I’ve become. Honestly though it hasn’t made me think anything less of this absolute masterpiece of media, not just video games but all media. Legends may age, but they’ll never die.
The library tho
I loved this video so much the speech at the end got me teary eyed
Why don't you have more subs? You definitely deserve it
I loved Halo, I used to be great at it! Now I'm stuck on the Combat Evolved Remaster level where you get the Sniper Rifle and I refuse to lower the difficulty to 'normal'. Man, I really suck at these games now.... But I also don't recall the AI being even half-competent with those sticky grenades!
So this is why Halo is so great uh? Awesome video Kbash! I truly enjoyed it! Now why dont you talk about the latter games? Reach seemed to be a cool game.
KBash please play Danganronpa trust me your going to have one hell of a time and your going to have some shit you wanna say about it!!
When you're showing the ending of Halo 3 and talking about glory days being behind us... that shit hit different, man.
Dude that ending holy shit. Never thought I would feel so moved about a video game. But I feel the same way. The halo trilogy was really something special. Made my childhood that much better
"Is this The Maw again? Oh shit it's The Maw but everything's exploding, drive!!!"
The glory days thing hit hard. I used to feel that way as a fighting game fan...until I started playing Gundam EXVS.
