Now I’m imagining John just showing off his knickknacks to awestruck houseguests. “And here’s the snow-globe I picked up at the gift shop when I went to Mars, a picture of me and the boys when we were given awards for saving a research station…”
I could listen to that voice all day. For my 18th birthday my Dad got me a cameo message from Mr. Downes and it blew my mind being a Halo fan since I was a kid. (Probably shouldn’t have been playing Halo as young as I was but I think I’ve turned out fine).
The fact that you realize you probably shouldn't have been playing those games at such a young age (even tho a lot of us did lol) means you turned out just fine. Sound like you have an awesome dad and 18th bday!
Same the only reason me and my brother got an Xbox was because we played halo ce at my cousins house and we begged for it lol we were only 5 and it became my most beloved franchise in gaming still is.
This is an injustice beyond comprehension. The man lends his legendary voice for a legend and he gets nothing in return? This better just be a case of them making him a personalized piece of merch so specific, it's just taking them a long time to make.
It saddens me that 343 hasn't given you any halo infinite memorabilia in recognition of all your amazing work :( A legend as great as the man himself deserves a face carving on Mt. Rushmore.
@@SteveDownes117 I must admit I’ve only properly read/listened to the Halo and Godfather books, so this is my best idea… would you hold a little competition where the viewers submit their Halo/master chief short stories and you pick your favourite(s) to narrate? Thanks again Steve, made my day liking and replying to my comment😁
@@SteveDownes117 I know it's not public domain, but potentially some passages from Hitchhiker's guide? I love imaging the droll guide passages with your voice whenever I read it, it's a comfort thing of mine. Love your work, you've made a lot of people's childhoods, including mine!😁
@@DGCpicturesEntertainment I think it's cause they signed it upside down, so he showed it off like that. Or he doesn't know which way is right up, which could also mean why they signed it that way too.
I love how invested Steve Downes has gotten into his character and into the universe of Halo. He reads some of the books and has collectibles. That is awesome.
I just cant stop repeating, how much i appreciate that Steve Downes is not just voicing the Master Chief, he is already living the Master Chief lifestyle and i think thats hilarious.
Just sitting here, realizing I’ve grown up with your iconic voice for damn near 20 years of my life! I first played Halo at the ripe old age of 12, and never put it down since. Thanks for the cherished memories, and the inspiration: Real heroes always finish the fight.
I love seeing the Mega Bloks Warthog on the shelf. I have one of my own, from attending PAX in 2011 when they did Halo Fest. Only 5,000 units made, and it looks so good on my Halo shrine in my gaming room. Easily one of my favorite items in my collection. The only way to make it even better is if it were autographed by the man himself.
I remember my brothers first mega bloks warthog... Got him the set with the white warthog, two spartans, and a ghost with an elite. Years later he accumulated too many more mega bloks warthogs to mention.
Got my dad into Halo ever since I was 7 or 8 years old, and we've never been closer. He's read some of the books and has every game except the Halo CE for the original Xbox. Both our schedules are super busy & I know the old guy's exhausted at the end of the day, but when we both have some free time I try to play Halo MCC with him. It's never a disappointment and he's always having fun - even if we're losing. I feel like Halo has shaped some of the biggest aspects of my life: joining the Marine Corps, becoming a voice actor, and going to college for mechanical engineering/robotics. All these things have a link to Halo, be it the UNSC, Steven Downes/Keith David/Dee Bradley baker/Tim Dadabo, or interest in the Mjolnir Armor. Steve, you've inspired me ever since I was a kid, so I just wanna say thanks. Also I'd love to see a Cooking with Steve video, I feel like it would be really enjoyable!
I started with 3 in 2007, but I was aware of Halo from before then. One day in 2013 my dad came home with *two* unopened copies of Halo 2 for the original Xbox, still in the cellophane wrapping. I played it and realized just how amazing halo 2 is. I understood *why* it was so hyped, why people are so damn nostalgic for it. I'll always have nosalgia for Halo 3, but damn Halo 2/2A is my favorite in the series (if not, then it's definitely tied with Halo 3).
I still like CE best. I love the art style, (original, not remastered.) I love the story, and I love the music. all on top of that, it has the best, most fair gameplay balance of any halo game.
Awesome man, just saw this in my recommended list, and I'm happy to see your a fan as well as actor. I love the games for their campaigns and storyline so I get the love of the Halo universe.
Oh man, when I met you at outpost discovery Chicago, you and Jen signed my red plasma rifle and were telling me about the one you had at home! So awesome to see it!
It is so awesome how much you seem to love the game you helped make so special, I dont know how to explain it but its so wholesome seeing this content with the man who voiced my favorite character of all time. Steve you're so frickin cool and thank you so much for everything you've done and continue to do!
I wish I could get a "happy birthday" from this man, I literally grew up with Halo and hearing his voice, I'm turning 17 on February 27th, if I can get a happy birthday from him I'd pay him fr it
You really do have a perfect voice for this character, thank you Steve, for all the adventures I went through in halo 1-infinite, I will never forget them!
I’ve got a working airsoft Assault Rifle! I think it’s modeled after the Halo 3 version, from a company called Evike I believe. It too is heavy and tough and the real deal, even has a working flashlight, ammo counter, and green lights here and there. Gosh it would be crazy to get you to hold or sign it haha
Hmm funny enough you remind me of the old school NCO's I met in the Army or around Fort Sill as retired vets. So awesome you have your own channel and I love it when you do cameo's.
God you have a great voice! I'm jealous lol thanks for showing us something about yourself I've appreciated you're work in halo games so much its great to see the real people behind the awsome games!
Talking about it. If you get to record the whole Shadows of Reach book, I’d happily listen to all of that. I’ve got the book itself but with you recording it. Will just make that more awesome to listen to 🤘🔥
Steve, my man, love ya work and love allll the positive energy you put out in the world. Thank you for everything you do! Glad I stumbled upon this vid lol, now I subbed 😎 Just casual Master Chief chillin in his home. HINT HINT 343, the man needs new goodies!
I would absolutely love it if you narrated a full audio book. Be it Shadows of Reach, The Flood, or First Strike (the one closest to my heart), it would be a treat.
Steve downs Thank you so much for being master cheif from 2001-2021 i am so upsest with master cheif I love him so much he is like a part of me your voice is perfect for him and how dedicated and strong cheif is how he dosent get angry and always stays focused on mission I just wanna say Steve your awesome and I hope we get more master cheif in future time thanks for all your hard work for making the halo universe an amazing Ride.
That is awesome. I will make you a prop from infinite Steve. You need infinite stuff! Your lines in infinite where tugging at the heart strings. Loved the work.
I started playing halo at a very young age. I started somewhere around pre k or kindergarten and still play it to this day. I remember when I still had my original Xbox and I wanted to get a new game for it (not realizing that no more games were sold for the og), I went to gamestop and they only had games for the Xbox one and 360
i dont know why, every time i see someone's halo collection and my mind just goes like "where are the hotwheels warthogs?", dont mind me my inside diecast collector just comes out but this truly looks awesome................... also hello all the way from india, big fan of yours 🙂
Surprised Steve doesn't have anything from Infinite. You would think 343 would have sent him some stuff. The guy who played the Pilot in Infinite also tweeted himself buying a used Xbox One X to play Halo. 343 sends content creators stuff but not people who actually worked on the game and played main characters in the game?

The fact that his normal speaking voice is pretty much just "casual" Master Chief is awesome.

This is truly "the master chief collection"
lmfao
good one
Master chief's collection
Greatest comment ever
Really a good one
I love how he went "I need a weapon." with the Pez despenser.
Sir, it’s very tasty
@Mister Jane Doe sir, dispensing Pez to the covenant

Same

i dont know how old u were, but i started with CE at 5, so.... hopefully im fine?
343 : *gives free halo merch to halo youtubers and streamers*
Also 343: doesn't give the legendary Steve Downes some cool halo infinite statues.
343 should be giving the man a custom, properly sized Chief suit. Cortana knows he has the voice for it.
This is an injustice beyond comprehension. The man lends his legendary voice for a legend and he gets nothing in return? This better just be a case of them making him a personalized piece of merch so specific, it's just taking them a long time to make.
I have a feeling that if someone shares this vid to 343 studios he'd get a shit ton of cool stuff.

Nobody ruin it
@@agentmaryland1239 well, he did get paid, so not exactly "nothing"..

Love the collection. The Master Chief pez part made me laugh 😂!
I love how invested he seems to be In the lore of the game
I mean... he is the master chief after all..
Would love to hear more master chief story books narrated by you, loved the short ‘Palace hotel’ and your excerpt from shadows of reach!
That gives me an idea... What are some (public domain) stories you'd like to hear me read? Or maybe just a passage? Maybe I'll give that a try...

The fact that Steve is a legitimate Halo fan that can nerd out over his collection makes him that much cooler. Such a genuine, fun guy.
I think the entire community would love an audio book version of shadows of reach.
@Mister Jane Doe I wish Ian Holm did an adult book reading before he died and Elijah wood since the story is basically being written and told by them.
I just cant stop repeating, how much i appreciate that Steve Downes is not just voicing the Master Chief, he is already living the Master Chief lifestyle and i think thats hilarious.
He doesn’t just voice Master Chief. He IS Master Chief :)
Man Steve is just a gem
I live for that chief pez dispenser “I need a weapon” that was amazing
Hello Steve Downes, thank you for your amazing work voice acting the Master Chief over all of these years.
Just sitting here, realizing I’ve grown up with your iconic voice for damn near 20 years of my life!
I first played Halo at the ripe old age of 12, and never put it down since.
Thanks for the cherished memories, and the inspiration: Real heroes always finish the fight.
I never knew chief had a RUclips channel. Instant sub!
I would love to meet this guy he’s so chill and he’s the voice actor of the best video game character of all time
There’s something about hearing master chief talking about his own halo collection that just hits right
ngl the voice of chief owning a life sized needler is probably the best thing ever.
I love seeing the Mega Bloks Warthog on the shelf. I have one of my own, from attending PAX in 2011 when they did Halo Fest. Only 5,000 units made, and it looks so good on my Halo shrine in my gaming room. Easily one of my favorite items in my collection.

Halo 2/2A were hands DOWN the two best halo games by a long shot. You did a GREAT job in that game, it was my first too!
I started with 3 in 2007, but I was aware of Halo from before then. One day in 2013 my dad came home with *two* unopened copies of Halo 2 for the original Xbox, still in the cellophane wrapping.

Every time I get bored I come here to see what you've been up to.
You're cool Steve, we love seeing you mesh with the community.
anything from halo in 1:1 scale is just too cool. smol human
Wait is this Steve's actual channel? That's awesome
Having all the halo audiobooks narrated by Steve Downes would be pretty freaking sick. I'd buy that.
Awesome man, just saw this in my recommended list, and I'm happy to see your a fan as well as actor. I love the games for their campaigns and storyline so I get the love of the Halo universe.
I love this so much, that he's a genuine halo fan. What a perfect voice for chief, and what a great guy
It would be amazing if you recorded those audiobooks!
Bro a Steve Downes audio book of a Master Chief story is just a complete win
Cracks me up that he both signed and holds the plasma rifle upside down
This guy is 71 years old! Bless this man’s heart... 😭
Huge fan of Halo. Thank you Steve for sharing your voice with the world.
I love how even when he picked up the plasma rifle, he had some trigger discipline before relaxing
Thanks for making our childhoods, we all love u
Steve Downes just seems like the nicest guy in the world. I would love to meet him one day.
That Covenant blaster of yours is the coolest piece of nerd merch!🔫
Oh man, when I met you at outpost discovery Chicago, you and Jen signed my red plasma rifle and were telling me about the one you had at home! So awesome to see it!
I've always wondered how much merchandise/what merchandise actors have of characters they've played.
This was super interesting to watch.
Steve you are the man, I can’t believe 343 hasn’t filled your entire estate with Halo merch for your legendary contributions
Tbh the plasma rifle would probably be that big if it was real
we all respect you steve, you will always be our childhood hero.
Yes Steve we want to hear you read the whole book as Chief!!!
It is so awesome how much you seem to love the game you helped make so special, I dont know how to explain it but its so wholesome seeing this content with the man who voiced my favorite character of all time. Steve you're so frickin cool and thank you so much for everything you've done and continue to do!
That MC Pez dispenser though is legit. That is probably a harder flex than the plasma rifle and that baby is RARE!
Holy shit when did Downed get a RUclips channel?
Definite sub
Steve Downes is a national treasure and must be protected at all costs
1:01 yes! The eargasm to my ear when hear that line
I wish I could get a "happy birthday" from this man, I literally grew up with Halo and hearing his voice, I'm turning 17 on February 27th, if I can get a happy birthday from him I'd pay him fr it
A holy grail of the master chief collection
You really do have a perfect voice for this character, thank you Steve, for all the adventures I went through in halo 1-infinite, I will never forget them!
It’s so cool seeing Master Chiefs life outside of saving humanity
