- Steve Downes says his most iconic and badass line as Master Chief from Halo... "I Need A Weapon"
from "Q&A with Steve Downes (Master Chief) and Jen Taylor (Cortana) from Halo at GalaxyCon 2022" Steve Downes and Jen Taylor answer questions about their iconic roles as Master Chief and Cortana in the Halo franchise at GalaxyCon 2022 in Raleigh, North Carolina
I love that he chuckles before delivering the line flawlessly
Can you imagine Chief doing that the covenant would shit themselves
the way it sounds like master chief still is so strange, you never hear him laugh
it came straight outta Halo 2 dudes voice is timeless
hes the true chief in spirit man
Chief is clinically insane
"To give the Covenant back their bomb" will always be my fav
Good tie for first. Both make the Chief’s personality clear without some awful monologue.
Also my favorite!
As a kid I fucking lost my shit at that line, forever instilled the idea of Chief being the utmost bad ass in the world to me, a character that's shows the truest testament to humanity
Cortana: "What if you miss?"
Chief: "I won't"
Chills every time.
agreed. you know chief isn't f*cking around when lord hood looks up at the screen with a glare.
"permission granted."
I love Hood's response. It's basically understandable have a nice day.
"Wake me, when you need me" Gives me chills even after all these years.
As someone who didn’t grow up playing halo and only did all three of the first campaigns after I was already an adult, that was one of the lines that really stuck with me. Easily one of the best video game characters ever written.
That was like hope in a dark time.
I can’t like it has 343!
In what halo did he say this?
@@laxy8025 at the end of 3 in the credits.
bro i didn't even recognize this guy but as SOON as i heard "I need a weapon" sent me back YEARS. He still nailed it.
Bro I had a chill but I was the same way. Had no clue who he was but as soon as he spoke. It took me right back to the first time I played it.
He nailed it because it’s his natural voice! Bungie staff originally found him hosting a radio show, he hadn’t played a single game before voicing Chief.
Believe it not, but he actually forgot that he voice Master Chief😂
Sometimes I forget that these characters have voice actors they just fit so well
GTA 5 is a great example of that
@@Teh_Random_Canadian🤡🤡🤡 the voice actors were the real actors
@@JacobMitchell-ft6sv i know. Which is why i said it genius. Jesus your elevator doesn't go all the way to the top does it?
"What happens if you miss?"
"I wont"
That one is the one i was trying to remember. Halo 2 will always be my favorite halo. I literally see that scene play out all the time.
He flies pretty good, for a brick.
That is the hardest shit I've ever heard.
He is lucky after all 😂.
@@sxrvsvct7911 Halo 2 is 🔥
20 years later and he still nails it like it was yesterday
Jesus Christ dude what a mean fact to just leave lying around like that 😭😢
@@dannyjaspersen7889if he dies, they will have to retire Chief.
One of my group members actually hired him via cameo recently. Still can nail the voice.
@@jamariobrown-tolliver8163*when😭
@eveningcommenter6312”to give the covenant back their bomb”*
Voice actors doing what made them famous is always one of my favorite parts of a meet and greet
It’s so insane when they’re like this dude too who don’t look even SLIGHTLY like their character sounds during some, if not all dialogue. Like where the guy who plays Teal’c on Stargate (Christopher Judge) sounds pretty much exactly how he looks as far as voicing Kratos. But this dude, ha! I’d never guess in a million years that it was him. Same as a fuckin ton of other voice actors….. they’re just so good and somehow can sound like someone they sure as shit don’t look like.
@@StonedOdieChristopher Judge is the god of dramatic and bassy line deliveries, to the point where I thought he would look exactly like modern Kratos IRL. He does build-wise but is iconically clean-shaven so I want to see a God of War 3 cosplay
It's everyone's favorite for good reason
This was just a weird ass comment to make. Like what made you want to say that shit? You high?
well what else are they gonna do? lol
"Give the covenant back their bomb." Always held a special place in my heart.
"Somebody PLEASE get this man....a *WEAPON* !"
And that guy right there IS the Master Chief, no one else could hope to compare
This is on 117 likes so I can’t like it
@@Lasershark666 like it now so it could be at 343
@@kajitheninja lol thanks I just did!
@@kajitheninja disappointing that people think 343 will ever make a great Halo game after the failures of Halo 4 and 5…..Infinite almost saved it…..almost
@@Seraph314
And apparently, 343i tried to EX Steve Downes, Jen Taylor, and Jeff Steitzer, among all the other former Bungie members. That company doesn't want Halo to be good.
"What are you doing on that ship Chief?"
"Sir, finishing this fight"
"HALOOOO 2 BABBYYYYYY"
I could hear the music
"sir, finishing this Big Mac"
Sir-curity camera
Absolute tragedy that there was supposed to be an entire extra section of the game but bungie had to cut it
He went from cool old guy to The Chief in about 2.5 second.
chief is a cool old guy. what do ya mean
That’s Master Chief
He's always the Master Cheif. 😎
Master Chief 117 I love Halo such a good franchise
@@joebrown72 lmao isnt chief like 50?
Him saying that hit me with years of nostalgia. It’s sad halo will never live up to those days anymore.
Shitty game devs. Killed COD killed Killzone killed battlefield and Halo was getting killed as soon as I got passed Reach. I can’t think of any Halo I enjoyed up until after reach. I actually liked reach bc it had a decent story and the multiplayer is what carried it.
@@AaronJames-ez8mb Reach was the last good Halo game, unfortunately. Since then, they've been more obsessed with trying to cater to a new audience to bring in more players (more money) than trying to keep the audience that got them to their peak over two fkng decades. Between the crappy games, like Infinite, and that atrocious excuse for a live action show...virtually anyone who has been a fan from the beginning now hates the whole franchise.
@@ryanm7832 seems like everyone nowadays things cancel culture is wassup. Or that becoming what everyone hates is the new dig. Hate it so much and to think this is the same company that racked up 3 billion in almost 5 years in the early 2000’s.
I actually liked halo 4. The story was good and the multiplayer was pretty fun. Everything after that was not.
@@Bneumanns124 okay maybe I was wrong bc look. Halo 4 was decent enough too so yes I fucked with halo 4 a decent amount of
"Relax, i dont want to piss this thing off" is also hard af
10/10!
Bug favorite is when Cortana asks “What if you miss?”
“I won’t.”
1000000x yes. Responding to that question with “I won’t” then sending yourself to space and blowing up an entire ship is definitely the most badass thing in gaming history
"What's the plan, Chief?"
"Thought I'd try shooting my way out. Mix thing up a bit."
Shit gave me chills.
My favorite chief moment happened in destiny 1. Your ghost reads off his spartan number and says he went to him first before he found you. And he said he wanted to be out back into a sleep state. That he’s seen enough war to last a thousand lifetimes.
Halo 2 will go down in history as having one of the most kick-butt sci-fi action moments ever. Halo 3 was Bungie's magnum opus in terms of gameplay mechanics and variety, but Halo 2 nailed it with making Chief just seem unquestionably ace.
"You have a plan?"
"Thought I'd try shooting my way out, mix things up a bit."
Where's that line from
@@oldomen3788 Halo 3, "Cortana"
fun fact: that is such an iconic line that the MCC has that as its subtitles 'preview' :)
@@kendog0013 I might be an idiot. What does that mean?
@@oldomen3788 most games, if not all nowadays have an option to turn on subtitles - AKA, the text at the bottom of the screen denoting WHO is speaking and what they are saying - in the master chief collection, if you go to enable these, it shows a 'preview' of what those subtitles will look like; the line OP stated is the example text they use to show you what they would look like in the live game :)
"...right this way."
-sgt. johnson
whoever at bungie wrote the dialogue for halo 2 at the time was smoking the best high quality pack. my favorite line from halo 2 was when lord hood asks chief why he leaves cairo station and chief says, "to give the covenant back their bomb."
Had it not been for the ending halo 2 would have gone down as the undisputed greatest game of all time.
Honestly all they had to do was let us use the gravity hammer for a bit at the end. Keep the ending the same if you want, but let us play with the newest toy. At least for a bit.
“Oh I know what the ladies like”
@@dhruvster10I haven’t played it since I was a kid and I still remember how he delivered that line lol
"Smoking on that Halo Covenant Grown Pack, they watered that shit with the blood of 37 prophets, Sparten, this shits so potent itll have you seeing the Gravemind, this the shit that killed Johnson RIP my Sergant fr dawg"
@@Crackdoza_lol amen, that smoke pack was mind-blowing than kat getting shot by a needle rifle.
His voice sent chills down my spine.
Every time he talks in that voice, I get goosebumps. Doesnt even matter what hes saying. It could be "Can you pass the corn" and as long as he says it in that voice... it sounds so badass.
The best part about the games is how little Chief talks but every single time that man opens his mouth it’s just pure gold, absolute top tier one-liners. Never fucking misses.
THis is kinda why I feel like Halo 4 and beyond didnt work as well
The Chief just spoke too much
@@dinoblacklane1640 i personally enjoyed 4, I think the main reason they gave him more dialogue was bc of the whole “am I man or machine?” plot and like the entire first three games he basically was in non-stop combat. It was all very situational tbh
@@dinoblacklane1640 The big difference in 4 is, for the first time, he was speling during gameplay, not just during a few cutscenes here and there.
@@dinoblacklane1640 He did not say that much but the one liners were still badass.
WHat is the most he said anyway?
"There's a lady in my head that calls me a studmuffin."
Where's that line from? Seent it before
@moeman5122 pretty sure it's a meme line 😂
@@IsThatDonnieDiddle won't deny it
Please leave me alone
@@billcrawford5672what?
“To finish this fight” WILL ALWAYS BE KING
It’s actually “-finishing this fight.” 🤓
Sir, finishing this fight
@@Grayday117sir, chuggy wuggy
That quote broke controllers
Unlocked ✊
Could listen to his voice all day
i love how in a span of 5 seconds he can zone into the voice so talented
You know how expensive this gear is, son?!?!? "Tell that to the covenant."
That one will always be my personal favorite
@@Local_Russianagreed
i love how master chief gave no f*cks given when asked that.
@@Local_Russianthey better have ai copy his voice just in case old age gets him
@@jamariobrown-tolliver8163 for real, if Steve Downs can’t voice the chief might as well have ai do it, because he is irreplaceable
Man just hearing him say that is making me put in the master chief collection and play through all of them again for the millionth time
I swear to God after this short I went to my pc, opened up mcc and started halo 2
Halo is one of like 3 game series that can get you returning to it so easily. For me it's one final effort that causes me to go play through again the most often. I love the song
Same here brother
I put my kid halo 3 for the first time, and now I’m playing them! I loved halo as a kid and teen and now I’m back to playing them all
@@XxSwagGamersxX that is so wholesome
I adore so much the fact that Steve LOVES his character, the franchise, and the fans so much. They couldn’t have picked anyone better.
That is actually freaking awesome master chief's voice.
what
Thats because its chiefs VA my guy
I don't get chills on a lot of these shorts but that gave me 'em and the hair on my arms stood up
Best line ever was at the end of halo 2 when he said "Sir finishing this fight"
When Halo 2 was the newest game It was an awesome line but looking back he didn't finish anything he just crashed woke up and continue to fight
@@kilovwdude6457Well you destroy 11/18 (7 are to destroy the flood) Halo Rings, and destroying/taking over Halo Rings to weaken the covenant is the original plot of the game
"Sir, curity camera"
@@AzalofForossaI don't know why this made me laugh, but I like it.
@@Buckaroo_Banzai47 ruclips.net/video/xQAn240Kcds/видео.html
Damn...that line and voice still hits me down to my core
The OG master chief days will never get old
100% agree.
Steve has no idea how many people he brought joy and excitement to with his iconic voice
That voice will always stick with us.
The way he says "No Sir.." when asked to hand over cortana was always a personal favorite of mine. The sheer defiance in just those two words as if chief was saying i dare you to try and take her from me
you should hear the edit where someone made him say “fuck you, sir”
Halo 4 is not canon
@@christianhollans4940halo 4 is good and you can't accept it.
@christianhollans4940 but it is though? Just cause you don't like something doesn't make it not canon
@@MauriceeoTY halo 4 is dog. Shit.
Jen Taylor’s reaction is the cherry on top!
Star struck is certainly appropriate
She came 😂😂😂 no doubt lol it’s even audible 😂😂😂
I heard the uuhhhm@@85supra1
@85supra1 She really fucking did bro holy shit💀💀💀
Was looking for this comment 😂
I love how he has no hesitation and immediately knows the line without thinking twice, it’s like he rehearsed the line a million times with how perfectly he says that
He probably did. Honestly I wanna hear this guys natural voice now to compare
"Boo!" Will always be one of my favorites. That poor grunt.
Literal chills when he delivered it
“AND WE HAD TO SHARE THE ROCK”
Something about the swagger and power behind it just makes me adore that line
That was Johnson
@@milesweinhold7205 Ik, it’s just my fav line
how about johnson's halo CE legendary speech. "i dont care if its god's own anti-sonofabitch machine"
Master Chief makes me feel things when he speaks.
😮
Bro
As soon as he spoke
In character
I instantly recognized him asMASTER CHIEF!!!!
I have never followed the actor, never looked into the behind the game scenes.
But I got goosebumps just hearing those 4 lines!!!!
Me too.
Dude same
I got chills. Had no idea that was what MC really looked like lol. Halo was a huge part of my childhood.
I had the same exact experience you did 😂😅
4 words
You can see him get into character
Such an iconic voice to so many of us.🤘thankyou.
That "no sir" when ask to surrender Cortana is one of my favs
This line followed by "right this way" is something i still think about.
Ngl, I thought he was going to say "BOO" 🤣
“Sir finishing this fight” had a special place in my heart
That scene always gives me chills and psychs me up.
My favorite was always "We'll be fine" when asked to put his seatbelt on.
Safety first
Then ping-pongs around the pelican killing the marines.
@@cesarmarquez8670 😂😂
Living legend right here folks. We all love you Steve.
Really one of the greats, glad we all got to experience a series like this
Bro stop acting like it’s over fr.
@@Grayday117lol halo has been dead since four bro
@@jacobb3784 Dude, just allow us to see the next title and if it ends up being another then I’ll agree. Until then, nah hopium.
@@jacobb3784not true at all. Quit hating
@@paytonallen1027its dead bro 😂 multiplayer will go on but they can't revive what they've already killed
Such an iconic voice he’ll be heavily missed when he’s gone
As a working Voice Actor myself. That voice is fucking incredible. Legend of our Childhoods.
Thought he had some voice filter the fact that's just him is amazing
Sergeant Johnson: We’re not leaving him here
Chief: yeah, you’re not
Sierra 117
Hell yeah shif always had me going nuta
“You know how expensive this gear is son?”
“Tell that to the covenant”
Finishing this fight.. Has always gave me chills.
Gives me chills every time.
I really wish he would sound like that in the show 🙏🏿🔥
show is trash
"Sir what are you doing on that ship" "finishing this fight" i always loved that from halo 2 when i heard that and i was jumping up and down like crazy
It was "master chief, do you mind telling me what you're doing on that ship" "sir, finishing this fight"
I like his line from halo 3 when he goes into cryo. “Wake me. When you need me”
Edit: JESUS CHRIST 557 likes?!?
When you are awoken by Cortana with "Chief, I need you" its actually amazing
You just hurt me all over again
@@kellcifur6985 huh?
We all can agree that is the real final of the saga
halo 4, 5 and infinite are just a dream
@@IUseScriptsfacts bro
He loved that question
“Thought we’d mix it up.. shoot our way out.” Is a personal favorite.
Honestly his face is the one i imagine underneath the helmet.
Imagine being a gunshop owner, and this dude walks in and delivers that line flawlessly. I wouldn't even do a background check.
He is truly the face of Chief
I will not believe anything else
If i ever heard him in person i would get the craziest chills
I could watch this on repeat all day
The most badass line ever!
Jen's face when he says it ❤
Best line in gaming history
Honestly whenever I hear Master Chief talk I ascend to heaven
HE SAID THE THING!!!
Bro. That gave me fucking chills. Legendary man from my child hood
The one line that cements, seals, and lifted my childhood to the golden age of gaming… will forever be…
“Wake me… when you need me”
Steve Downes will always be master chief
It’s been forever since I’ve played Halo but I still felt that deep in my soul
💯 that line has stayed with me since i was a child
I love this line! So many great oneliners in Halo
Cortana was lovin as per usual 😂
That he doesn’t even need to think about it, just chuckles and delivers. Absolute champion.
He knows what the ladies like 👍
You deserve all the accolades - your performance made Master Chief who he is in all our imaginations, incredible performance - thank you
I love Jen Taylor in the back loving it as much as everyone else
Yes❤❤❤ nostalgic
I can smell that room from here
Too give the covenant back thier bomb
This man shaped a generation. Master chief is a true fictional hero
That man is a national treasure
"To give the Covenant back their bomb" will always be ingrained into my mind. I played Halo 2 an UNHEATHY amount as a kid
We all did friend, we all did. Good times
That's the line that made him a legend
This mans voice gives me chills. I remember when halo came out.
Still gives me chills man
THIS is the demeanor of Master Chief.
I’m so glad he gave us such an iconic character that genuinely inspired a WHOLE ASS GENERATION. I remember getting my first Xbox for Christmas & all I wanted was Halo Combat Evolved, & boy the rest of that Christmas break was amazing.
My god the nostalga chills are so real
Goosebumps. My childhood in a nutshell right there
Damn hearing his voice brings back childhood memories.😊
The fucking goosebumps I got randomly driving home because I heard that voice again 😂
The fact he slowly raised the mic made it more badass to me.
