I really wish that people today who are into the Bungie era Halos who weren't around for their original releases got to experience those releases first hand. Halo 2 and Halo 3 specifically had a totally different form of hype around their releases that we just don't see today. They were such a big deal that national and local news covered them here in the US. It was a different time for gaming and I'm so happy that I was around for it.
there is a gamestop in the mall in my hometown that still has a cardboard Halo 3 display standing in the window. If the store is still there I bet it is still up
Halo 2 is a definitive part of my life, I remember those years so clearly. Open mic chats with total strangers, fragging for HOURS because we had never experienced anything like this before. Halo set the stage, I am glad I got to be a part of it.
Halo 2 is one of my personal favorites in the series, I'm sad I didn't get to fully understand and appreciate the times then, I was just too young and dumb
Nothing, and I mean NOTHING, will come close to the buildup that Halo 3 had. From the first teaser of Chief overlooking the Portal set to Finish the Fight, to the live action Believe campaign, the diorama and the masterpiece of a short directed by Neil Blomkamp that was Landfall......oh god it's all flooding back to me now. I was 17 when 3 released, and it has given me some amazing memories and friends for life. I haven't played Halo in nearly 2 years now, between life happening and Halo not feeling the same, I just can't get back into it like I used to, but Halo will always have a place in my heart. Been there since 01 and it will never leave me🫡
Man, I remember seeing the Halo 2 demo when it was revealed.. the hype was so insane. I remember going as crazy as the crowd did when they showed off Dual Wield.
@@BTSSPARATAN 343 is working with a team of modders to restore cut Halo content to release for MCC on the steam workshop. They've already done a level from the OG Macworld build of CE, and I think they're still working on the Halo 2 Demo, but it is coming eventually.
@@Araxhii Everyone did, and even the Big Halo youtubers told 343 it was a bad idea, and when the game not only released substandard but REMAINED substandard for over a year those same Halotubers shilled the shit out of Infinite.
@@Domi39 After recently replaying Halo Infinite campaign, I honestly really enjoyed my time, and loved the story and how it played out. Admittedly, I have not played Halo Wars 1 and 2, or Halo 5 at all, and I'm experiencing it from the perspective of only playing Halo 1, 2, 3, ODST, Reach and 4.
That one piano note from Halo 3 in finish the fight is enough to make so many memories of not just the game but my loved ones come back to me. It hits me in the chest and i get chills, every time.
Coming back to these after E3 being cancelled this year hits different. Though I agree it’s easier for company’s to pre record their showcases and live stream them, it just sucks we might lose this format. We’ll never be able to recreate these experiences. E3, goodnight my sweet Prince 😪🫡
Man the hype for Halo 3 was insane. No game will ever reach that kind of exictment before release ever again, it was almost like it was a big time movie abou to come out with how much people were talking about it.
@@abalrog42 ...Geddout! There's no way in hell that's true. That is the stupidest thing I ever heard in my life! There's no way that Halo 3 could ever have that big an impact.
Todays kids will never know what it was like seeing THIS live on tv during E3. I simply cannot put into words how hype it was. They have their equivalents today ofc, but honestly, i dont think the energy is remotely as close as watching halo become the powerhouse it used to be. For context i got Halo CE and an xbox in 2002, about a year after launch, for Christmas. I was 5 at the time. It was the first game i put into the xbox that Christmas morning, and i have been absolutely entrenched with halo since. I managed to snag a copy of halo 2 about 4 or 5 days before launch from someone who had connections, and i couldnt get enough of it. My friends and i would constantly be playing split screen pvp against eachother and campaign. By time halo 3 trailers were rolling out i could not be more invested in halo. I was there and seen it all. Man i wish we could have it all back.
The 1st Halo Infinite Trailer showed so much potential. Even with the wildlife and such - what'd they lie to us. I'd love if whoever called the shots there to had a love of the series at hreat and tried to capture in game the beauty of this trailer
That 1st trailer looked like they were trying to tap into a lot of Halo's original mac world presentation. A fully explorable ring world complete with wildlife. A whole game that was open ended like the mission "halo" from CE. How wonderful that could have been.
@@wut-se8hzThey had their heart in the right place. Just like how Bungie did with Halo 2's E3 demo. Just like Bungie, Microsoft fucked 343 over. Infinite could've been so much better had they been given the proper resources.
God if I could go back and play every halo again I would, when ever I think of halo it brings tears to my eyes I played halo 1 when I was 4 years old I'm now 18 and I've seen the rise and fall of this series I really really hope the next installment in the series is great I really do. But patience is key rn let's just wait and see, also in my opinion halo 2, Odst and Reach were the best games
Damn halo infinite is what made me believe halo could be good again the story is good open world felt a bit bland but still fun and holy fuck multiplayer is fun once you get past all the bullshit microtransactions
@@allgerfan definitely got better, now that we have more than 4 modes. The state it is in now should have been its release state, but whatever. I personally liked (kinda loved) the campaign, but looking at the trailer, it could have been MUCH better. I kinda wouldn't have minded if they pushed it back another year because holy shit, that multiplayer needed some work. Also wish the open world was more diversified in terms of biomes.
@@Aged_Onions it's one section of the ring so that's why it's not super diverse but the other stuff yea... Could a used some work. I didn't play that much Xbox when infinites multiplayer came out cuz I just had bought an oculus so I was playing that mainly so by the time I started to play Halo again most of the bugs where ironed out and weapons where more balanced
Growing up in the early 2000s where internet wasn't as available as it is today, Halo 3's existence was so scarce to the public. We didnt know if there were any plans to continue after Halo 2. When I watched watched E3 and saw the first news that Halo 3 was coming, my excitement was through the roof. Halo 3 defined the era of gaming back then.
After all these years, E3 is truly gone. I will never forget the memories this event provided me, my friends and my family with. I have nothing but love and respect. Thank you for 20+ years of hype.
We had no idea how good we had it back then and I was only like 4 or five during this lol but I remember fondly how big and how amazing halo CE halo 2 and 3 was literally wish I can go back one day just to play them again for the first time it makes you wanna shed a tear 😂
Halo 2: Ah nostalgia Halo 3: Perfection in all its glory Halo 3 ODST: The second punch to perfection. Halo R: A magnificent end to an era. Halo 4: The start of a troubled era. Halo 5: *Vomits* Halo Infinite: Potential untapped.
H2 and H3 were just incredible. I spent so much time playing those games. Genuinely got a tad emotional watching this video.. Such a shame the gaming industry is the way it is now... I would pay money to play H3 on launch again
Awesome video you put together. I remember eagerly waiting for the Halo E3 reveals then getting the official Xbox magazine with more details before launch. Last golden era of gaming imo. Glad we got to be there for it
What I love about the Halo 2, 3, and reach reveals is that they where done in Engine. Prerecorded, sure; but you actually got to see what the games looked like, unlike today where 343 is more than willing to shill out for prerended trailers.
I remember being a kid, growing up on Halo CE, playing through the campaign endlessly with my dad. One day I got home from school and my dad called me into his room. His computer was booted up and a video was loading. It was the Halo 2 E3 reveal trailer. I remember watching it maybe 10 times in a row. It was so exciting to hear about. I remember printing out stills and taking them to school with me the next day to show my friends. Some kids thought they were fake, some stared in awe, but we all gathered around and spent all recess talking about them. This hype continued until the release. The same thing happened for Halo 3. I remember seeing Halo 3 branded merch everywhere. I think 7/11 had a Halo 3 cup that was holographic. There was the strongest air of excitement and wonder leading up to those games' releases. The cheering you can hear in the background of the Halo 2 trailer was absolutely genuine. It was such a big deal, to see such a wildly different and new looking game experience after having only the first for a few years. That's something that's missing nowadays; falling in love with a franchise/game, getting no new content for it but still playing it obsessively (partially because there wasn't as much to do back then), and then having a new game release. It was wild.
Halo Infinite definitely made me a Halo fan once again. I recently got done playing the game for the first time and giving it a chance alongside Halo 3 ODST and both games blew me away. Although I don’t want the flood to come back I welcome the next installment with a day one purchase. Along with some figures. 😅
Yes the whole look of New Mombasa being like this weird stacked up floating city just gave the city such a cool vibe and the whole warthog section I liked too compared to the final version.
Unfortunate that I was born 2006 and didn't start my halo adventure until 2015. I actually thought Halo 5 was one of the best halo games, but my god I was wrong. When I first bought the MCC and played it, I thought it was like being in a museum looking at old shit. I was so wrong, it was more like being transported back into history. I'm happy that I have older friends who can tell me about their long nights on box tvs with split screen on halo ce. The hype, the culture was the most amazing part of the Halo community.
still blows my mind that the hype for H3 was soo big it caused a noticeable downtick in the economy of pretty much everywhere and every business the day it released.
I wish people could separate the story mode from the multiplayer when it comes to talking about Infinite, because I thought the campaign for Infinite was excellent. I vividly remember everyone loving the hell out of it when it released. I wouldn't call it a complete blunder.
Notice how the crowd gets significantly quieter after Halo 4 gameplay and beyond lol. "These Covenant aren't messing around!" can you imagine Cortana EVER saying that in Bungie Halos? Halo 4 is a great marker to use for when all of AAA gaming began falling off hard. One thing that shocked me is that it was all the way back in 2012. Further back than I thought.
"It's enough to make a grown man cry, and that's okay."
Fr bruh 😭
I thought I was only 1…
Me right now 😭
I can’t believe this actually made me cry lol wtf
I did almost. Remembering all the good times I had twenty years ago with folks just doing this. Crazy
"This is Sierra-259. We've got Spartans on the ground sir. We're not going anywhere" - hypest shit ever
The best trailer god damn

So true! It was such a cultural impact that still have a little bit of a mark till this day. Almost like Star Wars back in the day.

Halo Infinite was such a refresher, man. They played it so well to NOT make it obviously a Halo game with the most satisfying reveal in recent years.

First halo game i ever played was CE at my middle school with friends, the lead up to Infinite is when i feel in love with the series.

It was the helmet
@@rxr_hy2623 You didn’t hear that piano chord which is played EVERY time Chief is revealed
@@amematoi it literally was the helmet it gave it away.
The silence during the reach reveal was telling, as halo fans we all felt that

“Bet you can’t stick ‘em”
“You’re on”
My god, the flood of memories that Halo 2 E3 brought back. I still debate which E3 was the GOAT between that and Finish the Fight.
It's amazing how easily a few piano chords will nearly bring a guy to tears.
Gaming really peaked in 2007, huh?
Seeing Halo 2 adverts on TV was something special.
Rewatching this gets me hyped for a game that came out 20 years ago. Damn the marketing was beautiful

I never played a single game in the halo series (never had an Xbox ever) but watching these trailers makes me feel nostalgic
I started with Halo 2 split screen on original Xbox back in 2005. The Halo 3 reveal trailer still makes me cry dude 😂

Goosebumps at the end 😅
someone said “OH SHIT” when it showed off the dual wield in halo 2😭
Lmfao! I heard that!

Seeing people immediately liking the battle rifle is great.
That first trailer, that guy freaking out, prime halo two right there
Man I love Halo
That's what matters, mate ;
OH GOD PLEASE TAKE ME BACK PLEASEEEEEEEE
Imagine the reactions if we got to see Bungie after the title of the next halo game. My pain would go away.
My pain would increase in so many levels
Nuh uh, then we would have to deal with destiny 2 but even more shitm
The Bungie who made Halo doesn’t exist anymore. Current Bungie is arguably just as bad as 343.
I still can't get over that tall tree city design for the original new Mombasa. What were they thinking with that lol. So glad they changed it
I wish more people still cared about Halo. Infinite was great but underrated sadly
Best Halo game since Reach, hands down
Halo reach fans wouldnt understand the thrills having to see Halo 2 and Halo 3 in trailers and ad campaigns...
Totally agree!
That halo 2 e3 demo blew my 15 year old brains out.
Halo 2 e3 demo was something else....what a *fucking* time to be alive.
RIP E3
Infinite ended up being another 343 blunder, but hearing everyone cheer after Chief's shield's charge in the 2019 trailer still gives me hype.
I wish people could separate the story mode from the multiplayer when it comes to talking about Infinite, because I thought the campaign for Infinite was excellent. I vividly remember everyone loving the hell out of it when it released. I wouldn't call it a complete blunder.
@@jillwarricksI agree with you. People are too critical of halo. Especially if it doesn’t play like their favorite game in the franchise

Halo Reach was my most hyped game ever
Weird how much they show the jackals do a phalanx in these (doesnt happen in game ever)
Notice how the crowd gets significantly quieter after Halo 4 gameplay and beyond lol.
"These Covenant aren't messing around!" can you imagine Cortana EVER saying that in Bungie Halos? Halo 4 is a great marker to use for when all of AAA gaming began falling off hard. One thing that shocked me is that it was all the way back in 2012. Further back than I thought.
33:18 Awww, That red warning message 😢
There's no going back.
