Noble 6 never gets credit. He wasn't just a Spartan. He was an ONI black ops assassin who worked a lone against the insurrection. He could make entire terrorist organizations disappear. His commander called him "his Own personal grim reaper" master chief is 1 of only 2 Spartans to have the rating "highly lethal vector" the highest rating a Spartan can get. The other highly lethal vector Spartan? Noble 6. B312. He was supposed to go through this entire story next to chief but he did what he had to do on reach.
Yeah thats why cortana choose him but not for everything bc chief was lucky she said
"Noble 6 never gets credit"
Proceeds to type out all the credit Noble 6 has gotten
Calm down, go outside.
@@davemccombs ouch
@@davemccombs Clearly, he was referring to the fact that most people don’t know the details surrounding him and generally only focus on Master Chief. If somebody showing appreciation for a character in a game offends you, consider going outside yourself. While you’re there, touch some grass and chill out.
@@davemccombs Be nice my gnomedizzle
I grew up playing this the Halo games. I was to young to understand the story line but watching this brings it all back. What a fantastic series Halo is. Thank you for the awesome break down.
originally, you were just one of several super soldiers thawed out to help defend against boarders, and cortana was just the ships ai...one of many. she just had the info the pillar had gathered on the covenant movements.
it wasnt until 343 took over that you became John-Jesus Christ-117, super special one of a kind best spartan. And Cortana is some super rare, super secret, experimental, retconned, one of a kind prototype super ai...
@@Mitsurugi2424 This is actually not true. Cortana wasn’t just a regular ship AI because she was far more advanced than others as well as being assigned to him directly before they were placed on the pillar of autumn. Master chief was still called John-117 and was the best of the Spartan II group, even to the point that he was given his own team to lead. Not to mention that the rest of the Spartan IIs were trapped on reach, presumed dead, at the start of the first game too.
This is all in the ‘Fall of Reach’ book which came out right before the Halo CE
halo six is dumpster fire. why is it so cluttered? it's unplayable because of the clutter.
Same
HaloVerse coin to the moooooon 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰💰
I remember being blown away by Halo when it came out. The story, gameplay dynamics, multiplayer, co-op and graphics were so impressive that it gives me a huge dose of nostalgia.
The look of the grass was mindblowing on a console at the time it was released.
Reach was bungies last stand just as it was noble teams that being the ultimate Easter egg… god this was such an Amazing story still gives me chills 10 years later..😢😭
Haven’t played reach in over 8 years and seeing those cut scenes gave me chills again 😭
Remember Reach!
I wish I could have gotten into reach. It just never grabbed me.
@@LaMartyMar facts
The only halo I played
Glad it was that one

You're the GOAT. Thanks!
@@isaacbergomosco6454 lmao
@@isaacbergomosco6454 brah... Burger Moscow
Thanks bro
ODST will always hold a special place in my heart. The music and atmosphere were just perfect. First Halo i beat on legendary solo. Such a great experience back in simpler times...
I've got super high hopes for Infinite's soundtrack - O'Donnell's legacy is in excellent hands with Gareth Coker!
ODST is one of my favorite Halos.
I don’t get why ODST got so much hate it was such a dark but good game, landing in the darkness by yourself trying to find your squad was a great experience, I love the halo story including how ODST made me feel. I think it would be awesome to release a head hunter storyline similar to ODST where you and another head hunter are sent in dark, grim stealth missions to combat overwhelming odds.
are you serious? odst was the halo game i hated most. I only wanted to play master chief not some weak human trash
@@dancepro67 lol it’s one of the best games, I love chief but that’s literally the worst excuse to not liking it lol. Human trash? The ODST troops were the best of the best before the Spartan program, so good in fact that some became Spartan IV’s. I think the whole point of halo ODST is to understand you’re not a Spartan and are currently alone in the dark with hordes of covenant.
30:10 "The master chief is successful in mounting a successful assault". Great success!
My favourite game was reach and that’s because the story was awesome and the fact that you could customize you own spartan for the story mode made it 100x better
Interesting perspective :-). I didn't even know you could customize the character because I couldn't care less. To me it's just cosmetics adding nothing to a game or story....
@@DigitalAsshat When you can customize the character it immerses you in the story more for many people
you did a really good job of laying things out in a sensible way and more importantly, keeping the focus on the most important parts of the story. exceptional video, thank you for making this.
cool name
“Orbital Deep Shock Trooper” 41:59 No. they are called orbital drop shock troopers
ahahah DEEP? the fuck is this guy on... who the fuck thinks its deep!!!
I was looking for this comment 😅
jajaja had me coughing on my vape clouds for a min
Yeah, they really need a proof reader for the channel "the team is COMPROMISED of these people"
I was also looking for this comment
Thank you, excellent recap. Much more condensed from the 60+ hour replay required.
I really wanted to play the prior games before I played Halo Infinite. I had them all downloaded for a while but I never got around to playing them 😞 But Halo Infinite Campaign releases tomorrow so now I am here watching this video.
literally same
Same! Very good recap in this video tho, glad I found it.
I’m going back after to play through at least the first trilogy and maybe ODST and from there we’ll see
Same.
I would highly recommend Halo CE, H2, H3, and Reach. H4 is kinda crappy. Never played the Halo Wars campaigns. And I didn't even play thru H5 cuz it was so horrible. But the good ol days of Bungie Halo campaigns are definitely worth playing thru..more than once. I've beaten them on Legendary multiple times over..the first time being when they each launched.
I already know basically the entire timeline of the Halo story, but I just came here to appreciate you helping people understand the endless rabbit hole of the Halo universe. Keep it up👍
Only halo games I’ve ever remembered being released was 4,5 and Infinite I was born in 06. The series has always been one of my favorite glad I’m finally playing through all the main games
Wow, this is the best Halo "catch up" video out there! Thanks!
Best explanation of HALO ever !!! I started with HALO 2 {PC} back in the day and just recently got a 360 with 3 different episodes. Playing REACH currently. I'm an old guy and love this so much !!! Gives me purpose to live, HA!!!
reach and ODST are such amazing games I still play the 360 edition of reach because I find it so fun and cool to see the covenant appear and shift the UNSCs focus
Well done, y'all. You nailed this. Can't WAIT for the Infinite campaign.
That's sad lmao
@@davemccombs ?? how
@@davemccombs bruh whats reallt sad is i keep seeing you reply to almost every comment
Let me know what you thought, I thought it was terrible
How disappointed were you?
Didn’t have time for a full series replay, but I’ve 100% completed every game. So excited to hop into infinite but I needed a little brushing up on what happened to get here. Thank you for this fantastic video!
Anyone else love the History/Lore of Halo, Skyrim, Bioshock, and Fallout??
Just finished halo infinite and I’ve never played a halo game before so I had no clue what was happening thanks for this video infinite now makes a lot more since 🤙
343 Studio really should have just put Cortana to rest with Halo 4's ending, which is emotional, impactful and well constructed. I have very few complaints against Halo 4 except the death of the Didact. His intro is epic as heck, but the way Master Chief defeated him is so anticlimactic and unceremonious. If only their battle could be a multi-stage epic boss battle in which the Chief strips the Didact's powers one by one.
I completely agree, it was well thought out and was one of the few games to make me cry. Then Halo 5 came...
@@TheAngryRagePanda we are all better off pretending that Halo 5 doesn't exist lol
Well she permanently died in infinite so theres that.
With how grief stricken Master Chief was at the end of 4, I think they had to bring her back to resolve that. Also, I don't think they killed off the Didact in a way where he could not come back
@@Ghi102 Good to see a different perspective.
I’m about to rewatch this right after watching it cause it’s such a cool story line, and I never got to play the games except Reach. The halo show just came out and got me very interested in what the actual story for halo was and this told me exactly what I wanted to know. Thank you.
42:00 here is a big mistake! ODST means Orbital Drop Shock Trooper not a Orbital Deep Shock Trooper.
Yeah there was a couple of lore issues like calling the sabre a "covenant sabre" :/
My little brother and I have been playing Halo since the first Xbox came out. We've been halo fans for years and grew up playing it. Halo 3 was our favorite game to play, and b4 there was Xbox live, we would play Halo 3 campaign. And when we had the first Xbox, we would always just kill each other and it was fun. Those were good times. Halo 4 was our next favorite. I remember trying to beat it on hard mode but I failed miserably, though I did get father than I realized. Halo CE anniversary was also another one of our favorites. Campaign, again, was our fav thing to do. Now Halo 3 multiplayer was beast. We were so good at Halo 3 campaign and did 1v1 to get better at it. Halo 5, I barely played it. I didn't like Halo 5 much in my opinion. We didn't know anything about lore growing up but watching this now, I understand more about the backstory of those beautiful game. I don't play Halo at all anymore now but it will always have a special place in my heart.❤️❤️🥰🥰
Halo 2 was the best online multiplayer ever. When xbox live was the best
THANKS for dropping this at the beginning of the work day :)
This is a very nice bite size video for anyone trying to jump in, it def doesn't go into details like the primordia's, mendicant bias, and how all alien races are subjected under the covenant as well as lore from the book and yes there is indeed a particular reason as to why the covenant doesn't like us, but for the most part a very good job.
Thank you for this clear cut, neat and very useful recap :) Watching this now before beginning Halo Infinite campaign :)
I only played H4 and reach when i was younger so i had no idea wtf was happening to cortana let alone anything having to do with the forerunners. Thanks for this explanation, gonna play the infinite campaign rn
This is a really great explanation of everything! I also love how you actually exclude spoilers for certain games until it actually gets mentioned in that game. Like how you mentioned the flood in halo wars but didnt go into it until Halo CE
By far the best and easiest to follow Halo recap. Well done and thank you.
PERFECTO! It really shows that you guys do put in so much work. May you channel blow up like crazy in 2022!
Idk they messed up the name of the game lmao “Orbital DEEP Shock Trooper”?
@@jacksonjacksoff It was the other way around for the Humans and Forerunners. The Forerunners didn't listen to the Humans about the Flood.
@@nikolascook5146 ?
I love the halo series it’s really awesome and tons of fun and master chief and Cortana story is really sweet and adorable.
@Glxtchy efx okay?
@Glxtchy efx lol ;)
i was too young to understand the arrangement of the series, but with this video i now i understand everything. thankyou!
Loved it. Thanks so much for the recap. Growing up playing halo ., I was very young to fully understand the massive story. This makes so much sense. Thank you
Thanks for not forgetting about Halo Wars ❤
Idk why this doesn't have more likes. Pure gold. Ty for this recap :3
Exactly what I was needing to get back into halo. Thank you kindly for the uploading this
.
Great recap of the whole Halo story, very much appreciated for the upload 👍🏻
I love the lore but videos like this that refresh what you know is great. Thank you for the time and effort
My fiance loves Halo more than almost anything. I can say with confidence he has one of the most impressive Halo collections to exist. It's something I love about him. I'm a computer science major who makes games in my free time, and I've grown up loving games. Playing video games with people is honestly my love language, and I love bonding with him while playing Halo together. All this said, I never looked into the series despite knowing it's powerful impact on the industry. So thank you for making videos like this, which are easy to digest and gives me a great start in knowing more about the game, both for helping my future career, and making my love happy :)
Kat dying by a single sniper shot to the head is so believable in Legendary difficulty
This is the best version of lore. Thanks for video. I always watch, read spoilers of anything before i buy any media.
This was the best Halo recap video I could find that didn’t leave out too many details but also didn’t drag things out either, I would say the only room for improvement would be a better back story on the precursors/forerunner conflict that gave rise to the flood, human/forerunner war + didact imprisonment and also a proper chronological order of events.
1. Forerunners vs. Precursors + birth of flood & Precursor abilities/life creators
2. Human/Forerunner War + Didact use of composer and his imprisonment
3. Halo Wars
4. Halo Reach
5. Halo CE
6. Halo 2
7. Halo 3 ODST
8. Halo 3
9. Halo 4
10. Halo 5
11. Halo Wars 2
Succinct and informative summary of the saga so far. Thank you for all the hard work that went into this
Looked up the voice cast because 1. I’ve never played ODST or 5, and 2. Edward looks just like Nathan Fillion. And it’s him! He alone is a reason for me to play these games as I’m a fan of everything he does lol.
I just rewatched firefly and serenity this past weekend. The greatest show ever canceled.
I remember Halo being one of the first games I ever got and I was too young to understand it so I tried returning it but the guy at game stop plugged in my xbox and showed me how to play. Long story short been a gamer for almost 20 years now thanks to tht guy wanting his commission haha
Excellent, recapping everything. Halo is the BEST storytelling out there, period. It's CRIMINAL HOW it's not known to everyone.
This was a great breakdown. I appreciate your time and probably study time it took you.
Thanks for putting this together! Funny how much I had missed in the actual story while playing thru every game )except the 2 wars and odst.)
dude I recommend ODST it's amazing and shows a different side of the war
@@YEETUSDAFEETUS it always comes highly recommended! I’m sure it’s great, I just love playing as Spartans. It’s so surface level I know- I just have a hard time buying in.
@@chrisperrywv honestly I understand that but that's why I recommend it so much because you're just an elite soldier put in some serious shit and I love seeing buck earn a spartanship although I think they all earned it lol
@@YEETUSDAFEETUS I totally didn’t know that happened on the game. Haha. I knew he was in ODST, but I never knew it led him to become a spartan. Haha. Good ol Nathan Fillion
@@chrisperrywv very good talk about a promotion lol and I don't think it was just new Mombasa that led to it he was a veteran of many battles and that's spartan material not only survive but to also complete your mission against a city of enemies is a helluva thing lol
Thank you for an excellent recap! I've played them all, but some I never replayed and I was quite young when I did. My memory wasn't far off. however this clarified much confusion I had. Now im diving into the infinite campaign. I haven't been this excited about a campaign in general for a long time. Long Live Halo.
I started the Halo franchise when 3 was released and I managed to the play 1 an 2 but couldn't understand the story as I was a little young. Thank you for filling in the gaps as I've never player halo wars 1 or 2.
Thank you for putting this together. I’ve beaten every halo game except halo wars two and halo infinite but I barely remembered a lot of it. So this was a great revisit 😂
Do halo infinite on legendary.
@@claytonbeauchamp6995 infinite on legendary is easy
@@nestorix100 how many times you died?
@@claytonbeauchamp6995 a lot of times but if it isnt your first time and you know what you are doing I think it's pretty doable
Halo CE is still my favorite..I love the mystique aspect of it
Amazing job on this very detailed looking forward to playing Infinite with my family.
Not coop
@@darthcupcake3845 Not sure if the story mode is co-op or not haven't played Halo before and my older cousin just got the game.
Won't be co-op at launch, but will have it added in down the road. You will get the chance!
@@BurningFlamesofDivineDragon so halo inf will get coop later buttttt u can play multiplayer for free together just not campaign coop
I love how I never understood any of this as a kid but somehow knew this was something special
I love how in Reach it fully lets you kill all your military teammates
Thank you for this. I guess I shouldnt have skipped all those cut scenes.
19:30 Master Chief isn't they only spartan on the Pillar of Autumn. Spartan 058 Linda is also on the ship but was thrown into a cryopod due to taking plasma burst and shots to the back and to the head. John froze her in the cryopod and after blowing up installation 04 he found her pod floating in space and rescued her. She was later revived.
Dutch’s mission in odst is my favorite mission in any halo game.
You did really good on everything explaining and all thank you
Can we appreciate the fact that the average set of Mk5 shielded armor weighed well over a ton. Jorge straight picked that up with one arm.
That man was a Spartan II! Ofcourse he could lift that weight. Lol
@@dacirious16 I know. most Spartans were no where near the physical prowess of Jorge however.
@@filthysoap8563 I have to find where I read the description of the Spartan IIs strengths and abilities. They're ridiculously strong and are even more enhanced by the mjolnir. John 117 took out 4 skilled soldiers as a young teen. He killed 3 of them, one blow each.
@@dacirious16 yes, you’re correct. I never was arguing the abilities of Spartan II’s, I’m saying Jorge in particular is one of the strongest Spartans on record when it comes to raw physical prowess. As mentioned in the lore on multiple occasions, he is one of the strongest if not the strongest Spartan ever to be created.
@@filthysoap8563 Oh yea. Jorge is like professor hulk except hes not a genius.
I just started playing halo infinite I completed the first mission and was like “ok I need to watch a re cap video”
theres litrally no point they have tossed pretty much everything aside and started a new thing there isnt even any trace of cortanas army
Halo reach still my fav. From the campaign, to the multiplayer and the ost. I felt in love with that game the moment i heard the title screen music for the first time.
35:43 Penitent Tangent wasn't corrupted by the flood, he just procrastinated at his job and let them overrun his forces.
I'm gonna say the way we seem him corrupted is a good description
Halo 2 will forever be the best halo installment imo. So much story and character development. Halo 4 and especially halo 5 were just bad. Yes graphics were great. However, when I played them I never felt it did justice to the halo franchise. Crazy how this might have all been different if Bungie would have stayed.
What’s your opinion on infinite
@@RegenerationOffical I like it. It’s better than halo 5 for sure. It feels like a halo game again imo. Multiplayer is fun, when it works lol. They need more maps and guns and obviously need to sort out all the bugs, but overall it’s good. I love the campaign, it has a decent story and the open world is different and fun. Reminds me of Zelda in a sense. There are issue with infinite but I think the pros outweigh the cons. Hopefully future updates will address these, and dlcs will hopefully add new stuff.
So many childhood memories. Just collected all 12 skulls in Infinite and about to play the campaign on Legendary with all of them active. Had to watch this before just to bring it all back. Thank you for the great video
Reach was the best imo such a classic, amazing story to set it off.
I was born in 03 so I didn't understand halo being only 4 when halo 3 came out but this helped me understand it better👍🏻
Dammit man, I shouldn't have watched this. Now I have to start at reach and play through halo 5 again, for the 100th time. Well played.
Currently on my lunch break watching this
THank you for this!!! I dont have time to go back and play the games and this cleared up allllllllll my questions!
One day in the summer of 2008 my boyfriend was playing Halo and was telling me the story of the game and I started playing, it wasn't long until I pushed him out of his chair and made my place. I was a solid warrior for years but eventually, I had to go to college, get a job, and have a bunch of kids. Anyway, Halo has been pulling at me to rejoin the cause, and I am ready. After watching your video (which I feel was spectacular) you reminded me of just how intense and exciting Halo is, so I am returning to the fight and ready to kick some serious butt. Oh, and I'm bringing the kids with me. By the way, I never watch videos especially long ones like yours however, you presented it perfectly and I watched every second of it, thank you.
So I honestly never liked any of the Halo games until Infinite on the Series X. I gave it a shot and have absolutely loved it. This had encouraged me to go back and play all of the previous games and learn more about the lore and what not. Overall I can’t believe I ever ignored these games, they’re so amazing!
That's what I damn need right now. All the hype about halo infinite campaign is killing me.
After finishing Halo Infinite, I am wanting to understand the Halo story with more cohesion. Glad I found this!
I didn't remember he convoluted the 4th and 5th games were. Thanks for putting this together.
I still remember when HALO 1st launched. It was Microsoft's baby for their new X-box console. Which joined forces with SONY to throw Nintendo into the back seat.
It was a massively successful game that (imo) topped the 1st person shooter franchise overnight. From jumping 20 feet, the super suit with shield, the Loosey goosey warthog, Sticky plasma grenades, the game had it all!
But the thing that got me the most. Was when the story changed, and the game got real. Suddenly you went from being superman to the flood showing up and you're on your heels trying to survive.
Especially if you tossed it on hardcore!
-Covenant Sabre? Its a UNSC Sabre.
-The Pillar of Autumn was crumbling around them, not the ring itself.
-Orbital DROP shock trooper, not DEEP.
I needed this. Thank you!✌🏽
Great story recap, thank you.
I always though Kat's death was pretty... MIND BLOWING
I hate this and love this at the same time
Solid video, but at about 5:26 you call Sabres covenant ships… just a heads up! Seraphs are the covenant fighters, sabres were pioneered by the UNSC.
Edit: shoot, found another one at 42:00 where ODST’s are misidentified, the D in ODST stands for drop, not deep!
Yeah those were some rookie mistakes
Saw this too. Kat makes a point of saying that Noble 6 already has experience in flying the Sabres in his classified past. The Sabres and the base they're in don't technically exist publicly 👀
Also a bit before 54 minutes where he states that Master Chief convinces Hood that Cortana "can't" be trusted
Great job well done enjoyed it keep it up.
I’ve been playing since halo 3 when I was 5, I really didn’t keep up story wise but this video helped a lot
Man I wish I understood the story when I played it as a kid, I always thought chief died after the end of halo 3 literally cried once😂😂😂 glad to know I felt like that for nothing
"for a brick, he flew pretty good."
"Dear Humanity... we regret being alien bastards. We regret coming to Earth. And we most definitely regret that the Corps just blew up our raggedy-ass fleet!"
Just started the infinite campaign and so far I'm throughly enjoying it
I've watched this like 5 times now and I will continue to do so
A great multiplayer mode for halo would be to use the conquest mode in battlefield but with the halo twist and you can choose to become a marine, odst or any other regiments as well as other teams like the covenant would be cool
Halo is halo, battle field is battle field dude
@@CHR1S_831 no they can evolve stop being some purist dude that game mode would be so much fun
I'm completely open to a conversation about the topic because I must think very differently from everyone else, because I really cannot find an issue with Halo 4 and Halo 5's narrative. If anything, they both dive even deeper into the lore of the Halo universe and carry on the story even further. The events of Halo 4 are really rather astounding and deep. I can understand the gameplay itself of Halo 5 being a little bit annoying because of the Warden popping up what felt like every 5 minutes, but again the story of it all carrying on from Halo 4 is incredibly expansive and to me, rather compelling. Is it because there's this seemingly newfound "illness" that Cortana has to deal with, or is there an issue new "beings" being introduced that weren't before mentioned, like the Guardians or the Didact? Or that all along Master Chief has been this chosen one who was meant to be the savior of everything? To me all of that drives the narrative even further with how much it expands the story, even if it does come out of nowhere. I really fail to see the problem with it all.
my issue with 5 is how they split the focus and made it squad based it felt wrong the fact you get maybe 4 missions as master chief and the majority was locke and then felt wrong too I don't mind a split story if both sides have equal showing but that's not what happened it's not even close
Thank you for this. Learning the game
I love you for this, fam!
Orbital. DROP. Shock. Trooper.
Not orbital deep shock trooper. But otherwise great video. Really informative
8:05 Loved Reach. The only thing I didn't like about it was that everyone, even Halsey, walked with the exact same overexaggerated swagger. Seems like a small thing but it always stuck out to to me.
the over exaggerated swagger of a black teen perhaps
great video guys , awesome work
Amazing recap thank you for freshing my brain on halo 😊!
I never knew the tech storyline honestly. That’s pretty fucking sick
I feel like bungie did an excellent job with the story.
Great video weaving together the entire lore of the games series! To this day I believe Halo is a game that is primarily dedicated to its campaign mode. The story is rich and captivating! It’s sad that all we have really gotten so far is the paramount plus halo tv show. Really could make one hell of a movie series out of this.
Thanks for making this storyline!
