Whenever I listen to the soundtrack from one of the Halo games I think "Ok this Halo game had the best soundtrack", but then I listen to the soundtrack from another Halo game and think "actually, this one is the best." Point is, I can't choose.
I noticed it plays for as long as you're in that particular part of the level. So if you're garbage at the game like me and it takes forever to get past 1 set of enemies, this song plays for a while XD
Remember hearing this and combining it with Plasma Grenades... and those HUGE chain explosions. You feel like a ninja every time you do that. That was overkill, yet it happened so often it made the game pyro-simulator to me. Easy mode was hilarious. But on Legendary,... man I enjoyed dying, but grenades would bounce everywhere; a plasma grenade would explode shooting another plasma grenade out of 3-5 towards you and then see it stick to you; it was adrenaline-laced insanity! ...the heart attacks... ... breathe** ... WORTH IT.
The small glimpse of a combat form elite, the warm orange/yellow light flickering inviting you in, followed by the sound of the assault rifle getting deflected by an elites energy shield. Those were simpler times.
Best music on halo combat evolved ! God I love this music especially when the flood was fighting with the covenant in mission two betrayals. Do you guys remember it.
One of the most memorable experiences in any game. It's the first time you encounter the flood on that level after fighting tons of covenant. You are emerging from one of those claustrophobic tunnels and looking up at flood combat forms rushing toward the elites, one of which is a gold general. As the level goes on, you begin to realize that even the best elites can't beat the flood. You almost begin to pity the covenant (another is on Keyes, where you realize that even hunters can't win against carrier forms who spawn endlessly -- numbers beat individual might). Very few games have this kind of subtlety, where the story is told by the action and setting instead of boring cut-scenes or dialogue.
@@malceum What made it special for me was how after two levels of nothing but Flood, you return to fighting the Covenant. Feeling the relief of returning to something familiar you start to let your guard down only for the flood to return half way through the level. This music was a great intro for that.
When I was a kid, I saw my brother playing this game. That time, when he entered the truth and reconciliation( which was obviously full of different lights) I thought it was a song being played in their house and he is an intruder with a 60 round rifle trying to disturb their harmony.
Okay so maybe I’m a weirdo…but I hear the 1999 Unreal Tournament countdown in my head towards the start of this song. Like the counter that goes before the match begins.
MLG Fox I can see it now... purple strobelights elites sitting at the bar drinking, grunts dancing like no tomorrow, brutes in a booth arm wrestling, jackals around back doing crack meth or something all whilst this song plays. (hunters were at the chiropractor something wrong with there back)
It was meant to depict a "dance" (=combat) with the Covenant, the name being further amplified in meaning by the fluid nature of the gameplay in the game. I feel like it romanticised combat, but not in a "war is so great way". The game did a good jov at depicting the horrors of fighting a war where the other side is hellbent on your genocide (not as much as I'd like to, the books were stellar in that regard but hey ho). This song makes me think of fighting the Covenant on their own ground, but winning by "dancing" better. It's not just about firepower.
After all these years, I'm still able to get competitive matches. Check my channel, first Tourny match already uploaded. If you love the OG original halo check it out. When a game is great, it's great. I don't see anyone putting chess down.
i figured that out on the silent cartographer when i was playing on legendary and got an achievement for discovering that it. i was like wow OP halo 1 Magnums for the win XD
Yup, I never get bored replaying halo ce's campaign. I replay it with different difficulties which makes it more fun. Something that I still do till now
Halo: Combat Evolved will always be my favorite Halo. The late hours me and my dad would spend playing this game even on work or school nights. Thanks dad for introducing me to one of the greatest games ever made.
I remember in played Assault on the Control Room for the first time in a few years today, and hearing this start playing as the door started to rise, and I thought "this Is catchy. Good job Bungie" and then I see the reason why it started playing. There was an army on the other side that I completely forgot about, And I thought to myself "oh. That's why."
Martin O'Donnell and Alexander Seropian should make a track together because I can't help but feel Martin was inspired by the track "Leela" when he composed "Covenant Dance".
Give it a break, how many years has it been? Give 343 a chance to find a door. Name me a company that took on a new franchise previously made by a more reputable company and got it right the first time.
If it will come out on PC, then i will agree with you. Until then... Nah, i am not buying crappy console. And don't forget, in Halo Anniversary they've fucked up this phenominal theme and made it less memoriable.
Just walking in through the door... Hearing gun shots from the room ahead, walking into the room and seeing combat forms flying through the air as grunts and elites try their best to fight off the parasite. One of the best feelings ever, i'd often just stand there and watch the parasite and covenant battle it out.
To me I enjoyed that most of all the diversity of planning how and when to attack or not at all was the best feeling as war happens right in front of your eyes
This inception of Halo, when you actually were given an assignment and had to travel there and explore yourself. When you were told to go into the library and find the index and you actually explored your way to where you thought it'd be and it was. Where covenant and flood actually would ambush you, where you'd run across the snow plains to help marines and find out where to go from there. Where you'd scan the snow and distance and search for enemy scouts, pick them off one by one. Where ammo and weapon choice made a big difference and you had to pay attention to your ammo. CE where exploration was heading in a good direction. Where it felt like an Open world game even though it wasn't. Where traveling to destinations and planning things out and observing were a big deal. Those big deals right there should have been nourished not compromised. Where there were time limits on the last mission, Time limits! Where the story was strongly engraved into what you were seeing before your eyes and it felt more rich in ""color"". You, the gamer was compelled to dream, to dream of what Halo CE could mature into. A game where the marines helped you out more and were more capable. Where you traveled to more human built and alien built places. A human space ship shipyard for example. travel onto more and more covenant ships to blow them up. To assault and take command of more covenant ships. To get witty in your exploration of forerunner devices and tech. To be able to take access ammo and put it somewhere, like to be able to take access ammo and store it in your warthog or something. To have the ability to take helmet recordings and dog tags. To be able to use those devices that open forerunner doors. Imagine if all these things were standard for every halo game since? Essentially, these standards remained permanent additions to the halo game universe instead of removed and left in the past.

When I talk about Halo, people always tell me to forget about the past and hope for the future. I then reply with "Eat shit. Halo 5 is the biggest bicockdigroil piece of bloatfly larva I've ever played." >:(
But I've learned to respect other people's opinions, fortunately. Kudos to you if you actually enjoy playing that crock-o'-shit you call a Halo game. I don't see any way that would even be possible for one like me. :/
weird how history repeats itself. i remember how reach was 'the worst halo ever', and now people are begging for another game like it and drowning in nostalgia for how much of an awesome game it was. exactly the same is happening for halo 4 with people reforming their opinion on its storyline; even though a couple of years ago it was given the title of 'worst halo game' as per every new title. nostalgia always blinds players' perspective on a title.
That's true, but as someone who liked 4 and didn't feel Reach did bad on it's multiplayer as people claim, Halo 5 still feels like absolute shit in its single player component and is only slightly redeemed in its multiplayer aspect.
Everytime I hear it I always think of that section where you and the squad are heading down that big corridor to the locked door on the truth and reconciliation
I think this song is the most genius song on the whole game series. Keep in mind all im saying here, is strictly interpretation, and opinions This song, in every other level in CE, is only ever played when there is a battle going on between the Flood and the Covenant (there are other pieces that play instead when there is a flood covenant battle) except for the ending of Mission 5 Assault on the Control Room. Why i find that very interesting is that they use this song to foreshadow the Flood. The Mission 5 end cutscene, where Cortana is all Frantic, is because of the song. Now I believe, that the Covenant knew about the Flood on the ring way before Chief and Cortana did. It's why i believe there was such a dense presence of covenant forces just before the Control room. I believe, that the covenant expected the flood to show up at the control room area, and i believe there defences would have worked if Chief didn't pummel his way through. I believe the covenant at the end of mission 5, were in a way battleing the Flood, in a preventive way, rather than simply a battlefield style of battle, thus i believe why they put the song right there at the end. I think the way the covenant was set up through the entirety of mission 5 was to defend against the flood, more so than the Unsc. As the Unsc were getting trampled in that area. With the exception of chief. Possible could have defeated chief if it weren't for the aireal assault, from underground (still my favorite moment in the game) But keep in mind this nothing more than me speculating more than anything. The devs could have simply thought "this song would be fun here"

If I ever own a bar/club, Halo music like this will be playing
I need the first 14 seconds on repeat... permanently lol
THIS music alongside with MDMA is what makes you an elite...(ULTRA)!!
I love putting on my weight vest and going for a jog with this playing in my headphones just praying the covenant found us chilling

Best music on halo combat evolved ! God I love this music especially when the flood was fighting with the covenant in mission two betrayals. Do you guys remember it.
Yes, you hear this music just before the Flood appears for the first time in this level. So memorable.
Master Chief; You wanna dance

This song starts playing...
“Why do I hear boss music?”
"No Covenant....you just _haaad_ to open your damn mouth!"
Epic music. I shiver to this for some reason
That intro takes me back
esta música es legendaria
that 1 dislike is either a covenant .. or a flood infected covenant xD
I said this on the other video, but I love that part on the level Two Betrayals when the Flood shows up and this starts playing.
One of the most memorable experiences in any game. It's the first time you encounter the flood on that level after fighting tons of covenant. You are emerging from one of those claustrophobic tunnels and looking up at flood combat forms rushing toward the elites, one of which is a gold general. As the level goes on, you begin to realize that even the best elites can't beat the flood. You almost begin to pity the covenant (another is on Keyes, where you realize that even hunters can't win against carrier forms who spawn endlessly -- numbers beat individual might).
Very few games have this kind of subtlety, where the story is told by the action and setting instead of boring cut-scenes or dialogue.
It also plays on the maw
@@malceum What made it special for me was how after two levels of nothing but Flood, you return to fighting the Covenant.

If 343i remasters this song in Infinite and names it Banished Boogie, I will forgive them for their crimes against humanity.
When I talk about Halo, people always tell me to forget about the past and hope for the future. I then reply with "Eat shit. Halo 5 is the biggest bicockdigroil piece of bloatfly larva I've ever played." >:(
But I've learned to respect other people's opinions, fortunately. Kudos to you if you actually enjoy playing that crock-o'-shit you call a Halo game. I don't see any way that would even be possible for one like me. :/
weird how history repeats itself. i remember how reach was 'the worst halo ever', and now people are begging for another game like it and drowning in nostalgia for how much of an awesome game it was.
exactly the same is happening for halo 4 with people reforming their opinion on its storyline; even though a couple of years ago it was given the title of 'worst halo game' as per every new title. nostalgia always blinds players' perspective on a title.
Ah... I feel kinda stupid now...
That's true, but as someone who liked 4 and didn't feel Reach did bad on it's multiplayer as people claim, Halo 5 still feels like absolute shit in its single player component and is only slightly redeemed in its multiplayer aspect.
...Never said I didn't love Halo 4 tho, just bear in mind... ^_^
anyone hear the grunt in the beginning?
SoulJester34 yep
SoulJester34 good hearing
That's a Jackal.
Date Masamune no it’s a grunt sniffing
I didnt know what that was until now, Thanks!
The soundtrack is really something to listen to when you're not being shot at.
This music hits harder than the charged plasma pistol shots.
Everytime I hear it I always think of that section where you and the squad are heading down that big corridor to the locked door on the truth and reconciliation
When it's 2019 and your still listening to this master piece
Hell yea all the way till I die.
Must get on pc TO LOOP
This is the song you will be playing when ur in the military XD magine that.
2020 too.
When it's 2050 and you're still listening to this masterpiece.
Halo 3 rat theme
I think this song is the most genius song on the whole game series.
Keep in mind all im saying here, is strictly interpretation, and opinions
This song, in every other level in CE, is only ever played when there is a battle going on between the Flood and the Covenant (there are other pieces that play instead when there is a flood covenant battle) except for the ending of Mission 5 Assault on the Control Room.
Why i find that very interesting is that they use this song to foreshadow the Flood.
The Mission 5 end cutscene, where Cortana is all Frantic, is because of the song.
Now I believe, that the Covenant knew about the Flood on the ring way before Chief and Cortana did.
It's why i believe there was such a dense presence of covenant forces just before the Control room.
I believe, that the covenant expected the flood to show up at the control room area, and i believe there defences would have worked if Chief didn't pummel his way through.
I believe the covenant at the end of mission 5, were in a way battleing the Flood, in a preventive way, rather than simply a battlefield style of battle, thus i believe why they put the song right there at the end.
I think the way the covenant was set up through the entirety of mission 5 was to defend against the flood, more so than the Unsc. As the Unsc were getting trampled in that area. With the exception of chief. Possible could have defeated chief if it weren't for the aireal assault, from underground (still my favorite moment in the game)
But keep in mind this nothing more than me speculating more than anything. The devs could have simply thought "this song would be fun here"
Halo ce is still the GOAT to this day.
If you listen closely at the start there is grunt noises
The music of halo CE alone is better then all of halo 4 and 5 combined
You're pretty much right but 117 is pretty good.
Whats sad is that this was never used outside of Halo 1 or its remakes, i wouldve loved to see this be used more like the others
No level was impossible to beat like Two Betrayals was
Alto cumbion galáctico :v
