When you're an adult and remember the good times playing Halo at its peak, not worrying about a job or bills, just being able to enjoy a kickass game with friends.
Bro for real man, when life was simple. Its crazy because im 31 now and I have a career and im doing well. I could easily buy a bunch of video games. But somehow I don't have the ability to go back and just be that simplistically happy anymore. It honestly makes me sorrowful. So i just reminisce on those old times, because i cant relive them.
Honestly, the world was different then. I was 19,.on my own, doing all the adulting stuff on launch...even with those responsibilities, it was still such a different, carefree time.
@Dreadnott117 Same dude, my mother picked up my Lengendary reservation while I was in Army IET, picked it up spring '08 and sat down by myself and played it through in front of a massive TV on a surprise day off. Those times were simpler and we hadn't succumbed to expectations yet...
@user-ze3sg6ix1u I feel that brother. All we can do now is Adult well enough so we can have momments of not adulting and feel truly happy like we did when we were younger
Nostalgia is a drug. You can get high remembering the good times, but like any drug, you become addicted to the past. We as a generation must look towards the unpleasant future and fight for a better tomorrow. So that we may pass gifts onto future generations, just as parents did for us.
@gokuthatmadethebeat bro I don't understand why people like you say this, I was obsessed with it before it ever came out seeing pictures of it and learning that it was going to be one of those sad prequel stories where you know they're going to all die and you try not to get emotionally invested in them but it happens anyways. And after it came out and I played it I was in love with it, it's so fucking good and there was never any doubt in my mind about it
Bro 🥹🥹 seriously my last time I was online was in 2011 and I vanished from online halo because I couldn’t afford it! So now I just listen to the sound track and reminisce
@@RND3YTkinda ironic the fates of Noble team tbh: Jorge who has a connection to Reach, dies in space Kat the brains of the op, gets nailed in the head Carter the leader, goes down with the (drop)ship Emile the cq + melee guy, gets stabbed Jun who stays behind, survives
I remember waking up to the Halo 3 main menu screen in the middle of the night after my best friend and I fell asleep while playing couch co-op, it was easier back then, everything felt brighter then. I wish I could go back for even just a moment. I am grateful for the experience and memories, but I am sad that they’re in the past.
When you accidentally fell asleep while on the Halo 3 title screen and wake up to the music in the middle of the night and just leave it going. I used to do that all the time. Now when I hear it, it makes me sad and makes me miss the good ole days. Oh how times were simpler then…
I wonder if Jun ever has PTSD moments like this where his brain freaks out because it remembers all his family are dead. The soldiers who he once knew merely as soldiers who become friends, then a family. Gone. All without him. Kat was the only firsthand death he saw. Jorge, Carter, Emile, Six. He never saw them. They were gone. Without any warning, without any hesitation. Poof. They vanished from his existence. He'd never see them again. Not even a grave for them. Not their armor. Nothing. He trained Spartans for the rest of his years. Seeing new teams formed. New families born. All reminding him that he had lost his. His only reassurance was knowing that they died for the greater good.
I would love to see a short comic purely about this. Having younger spartans thinking they are gonna be invincible and not realizing that they are in for a blood bath and jun telling them the horrific battle Reach was. Could even be a panel of a small team with similar armor colors or helms that make him have a flashback.
Brings me back to senior year of high-school when halo 3 first came out. Man did me and all my friends have an absolute blast playing online with each other. 16 years later and all i see on my friends list is online 99+ days ago...
I turned on the 360 after years of playing only to find that the servers were down so I decided to play halo and when I tell you the nostalgia hit so fun hard man epic game for ever and always
As someone who never got to experience the multiplayer. This hurts. Really hurts. All the friend I had don't play games. But hey! The campaigns are amazing. Especially the second game.
For us the storm has passed. The war is over. But let us never forget those who ventured into the howling dark and did not return. For their decision required courage beyond measure, an unshakable conviction that their fight, our fight, was elsewhere. As we begin to rebuild, this hill side will remain barren; a memorial to heroes fallen. They ennobled all of us and they shall not be forgotten.
Truth is Halo will never be like it was, but that’s okay. What we got was special, those amazing memories with the old Bungie games will never be forgotten or replaced. Halo’s not what it used to be but it will always have a place in my heart.
It was kinda sad, but it’s even worse to look at when you think about what the ending originally was. Originally, Cortana wasn’t gonna go crazy and then die. Her and Chief both were just gonna be adrift in space, waiting for the next time the galaxy needed a pair of tireless heroes of godlike power to save it. I like that honestly, leaving Halo open-ended lets you speculate more, dream on what its story could turn into later.
Such a bittersweet feeling it comes with; memories are revived of days with less worry, less responsibility, less cognizance of the harsh realities of the world. Those days are gone forever, but will live in our collective memories.
Never Forget is the most bittersweet piece ever composed for Halo. When I was 8 and started my Halo experience with Halo 3, I’d sit on the menu screens for hours just listening to Never Forget and Movement over and over again, and Never Forget always gave me a sense of remembering for something I hadn’t even experienced yet. I felt longing for things I’d never seen nor felt. As I grew up, I played all the games and loved every one of them to bits, but hearing Never Forget now… it’s different. It takes me right back to 8 years old, that same nostalgic feeling, but with the new memories made, the weight of it was increased tenfold. And now seeing the current state of Halo, the shell of its former self that it’s become… it means more to me now. I truly will Never Forget the saga that gave me the best story I’ve ever experienced, because now, the memories are all I have left of a time no longer my own.
Noble team literally died as they lived… Jorge (Heavy and explosive expert): Went out with the biggest bang Kat (tactician): had a head too big for her shoulders and got popped Jun (Recon and long range expert): Was never seen again (On Reach) Carter (The Leader): Went out giving his last orders Emile (CQC expert): Killed 4 Elites with his bare hands while sitting in a chair before getting killed himself. 6 (The Lone Wolf): Faced the oncoming hoard alone
This is how I imagine us who grew up on halo, and especially halo 3, will be if we ever have dementia and hear a beautiful halo melody. Flooding us with memories we forgot we had.
“Die..? Didn’t you know? Spartans never die.” -Lieutenant Commander Kurt Ambrose, November 3rd, 2552; seconds before detonating a tactical nuclear device.
Listening to this in my room just got home from work, twisting one up to smoke, fixing to play Halo 3 on heroic. I was 15 when i first heard this title music. Now 32 and typing this comment. Spartans arnt machines, there just people. We remember ✊️🤕
Hits me every time. One of the few things that kinda pisses me off about Halo MCC, since it doesnt have any of the menu themes of the original games. At least, I don't remember hearing this bit
"Don't...don't let her go. Don't you _ever_ let her go... Send me out, with a bang..." "It was my job to take care of you..." "We were supposed to take care of each other, and we did..." "Cortana...please..."
halo 3 was the game of the century. Thank god we had bungi back then. I now quote Lord hood from the end of Halo 3. "For us, the storm has passed. The war is over. And let us never forget those who journeyed into the howling dark, and did not return. For their decision required courage beyond measure. Sacrifice, an unshakeable conviction that their fight... our fight... was elsewhere. As we start to rebuild, this hillside will remain barren, a memorial to heroes fallen. They will a part of all of us, and they shall not be forgotten."
I was once a scared little man never knowing what i was doing until i gave up Now ive grown into the future and faced my fears as a man over the years halo has never left my childhood and God forbid anyone ever takes it away This music makes me sit in the main menu before even starting and you all know the music just takes you away before you even blink.
You know what I always loved about this song from the main menu? the fact that its so sad and at first you have no idea why, but when you finish halo 3 you get booted to the main menu and this song plays and the realization comes while you get a view of the wrecks of earth after the war is over.
The halo servers are just dust and echos. We're all thats left. We did what we had to do, for Earth, humanity. An entire Covenant armada. The flood.......
for those who were lost in the storm, we remember them as they threw themselves into the howling dark
For their decision required courage beyond measure; sacrifice, and unshakable conviction that their fight... our fight, was elsewhere. As we start to rebuild, this hillside will remain barren, a memorial to heroes fallen. They ennobled all of us, and they shall not be forgotten.
