Celebrating Halo 20th Anniversary with a Bunch of Trailer Reactions

[@ryn7353]

I don't think enough people give Halo's remarkable history enough credit. Xbox Live was created from a vision started with Halo: CE and Halo 2 revolutionized online console gaming. Every Let's Play channel, every Twitch gaming streamer, can thank the efforts started back in Halo 2/3 with organizations like Machinima. Absolutely one of the greatest franchises in history.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Well said 😊 👏 🥳🥳🥳

[@andrewmeyer3599]

That even doesn't do it justice. Xbox live and alot of online services wouldn't exist if it hadn't been for Bungie. Bungie LITERALLY had to make Xbox Live to ensure that Halo would operate online. Halo is the reason for Xbox Live and it's absolutely fucking insane how much Halo shaped the industry and online connectivity

[@migii820]

You’re right about everything except that Xbox live was created because of halo CE

[@XxXMetaIIicAXxX]

I'm glad you said this i always explain to my friends that it was bungie and halo that revolutionized fps on console even after they got told a proper fps would never work with a console controller and they proved them wrong. one thing people don't mention in halo 2 it had the first ever party chat system friends and just messaging what you have on Xbox and even ps started with halo 2

[@andrewmeyer3599]

@@migii820 They were going ahead with Xbox Live, yes, but Bungie took on the job of creating it because they needed to be sure Halo would be functional online. Me saying Halo is the reason for Xbox Live is correct in the sense that it was so well thought out for Halo that it almost became a standard and made massive ripples

[@kyle1765]

The halo soundtrack is so good, still gives me chills when that theme hits in the trailers.

[@MrPepz]

It's an absolute banger

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

It’s what’s I remember most from playing first Halo back in the day. That theme ☺️🤩

[@TheArrowedKnee]

One of, if not, the best soundtrack out of any video game franchise imo

[@UNSCPILOT]

The original Halo Trilogy soundtracks are still the core of my music Library, no joke, still get amped up hearing the Halo 2 OST open up with Mjolnir Mix

[@Thorax2552]

FINALLY you guys saw Landfall haha. Fun fact: Landfall was directed by Neil Blompkamp, (director of District 9, Elysium, Chappie). Landfall served as 3 things. Advertisement for H3, a canonical short on how the marines found Chief at the beginning of Halo 3 and a visual concept for how the live action Halo movie he was supposed to make would look. When the movie fell through, he used the leftover resources to make District 9. I really can't wait for you guys to play through this franchise

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

We eventually get to the reactions 😅 and yes we look forward to playing Halo on channel as well 😀

[@edybrauer883]

You guys should definitely see the Halo 3 ad campaign called: “Believe” it’s truly something remarkable and makes you feel the world of Halo as if it’s actually real and something as important as one of humanity’s greatest events. Definitely a must watch, hopefully we can see your reaction to it

At the end of Landfall when you see "Sierra-117" (Master Chief) falling, it is a prelude to the opening mission of Halo 3, where Johnson finds Chief's landing site and the first level begins. Love that trailer though, that last Brute getting absolutely demolished by that rocket launcher lmao

[@clarkestomps]

I love halo so much! Everything about it is iconic, even the sound track I listen to it when I read comics in other words everyday. I’d say my favorite game from the franchise is Halo Reach because you can create your own character.

[@buendani]

hola venom

[@user-ow2ln3pw7d]

Agreed about Reach, it was an unique experience playing the campaign, knowing that according to the lore humanity would lose the planet to the covenant, it gave it such an impendent doom feeling, and yet through the heroic actions of noble team, notably noble 6 (incarnated by the player) allowed the events of the iconic Halo CE (the game that started it all) to be set in motion, was truly emotional! The Cycle was complete! Add the nostalgia factor, Reach being over 11 years old now, and you've got one of the top 3 if not my fav Halo game! Despite their graphics the og trilogy is special, and Reach was the final gem .... however from H4 (which isn't a bad game to be fair) onwards, the franchise started to decline, H5 is the worst game of the franchise for me..and I really hope infinite redeems the last 2 titles!

[@lingbomanbo]

This was such a great reaction and so much history. I love the halo games and lore so much. For the games, my friends and I used to host halo parties where we would have our xbox all hooked up to each other and play each other in full 16 players matches. We would all be shouting having a good time. Its was such an fun time where we all try different modes and full of chaos. For the lore though, Halo has been my favorite lore and how deep it gets. There is three books that are great. The first one is called Fall of reach by Eric Nylund that really describe the Master Chief background and how he became a Spartan. No spoilers, but its pretty messed up on the process which they show hints of in some of the in trailers. It also explain what Reach was and how important in the system. Then there is Halo the flood that took place during the first game but expanded on the personnel there as well as other characters. It also show some things from the Covenant side which was fascinating. Then there was the return of Mr. Eric Nylund who did first strike. This was one of my favorite book in the early lore days since its bridges the gap between halo 1 and halo 2 and you get to see how the Master Chief escape and got back to Earth. He continue on with Contact Harvest which explore how the war between the humans and the covenant got started. However what made Halo great was its story with the great grand opera it was in and how it got to connect with people. In college, I actually wrote a paper in my communication class describing the impact of Halo. I said that one of the thing that connected so many to this character was the fact that this was the fantasy of being able to be the one to save the day. The early game made Master chief so little words that you got to feel as you were saving the universe and it was great. Its amazing how much its grown. I read a bunch of their books since I love to read and they have had some many games, live action short films as you saw, board games, and even some role playing games all set in the universe. They had a a great marketing campaign and while I agree with other that halo 5 story did disappoint, the marketing campaign was top notch. The tag line of hunt the truth they made in a audio format series with two season and was great how they really got you engage in the universe. While ultimately it was disappointing how the story got, I feel confident in the newest one to get back to its roots. Halo wars was great as it was originally envisioned as a strategy game for halo and got turned into one full circle and the first and second one was great. I love the story of the banished and how they are the great new threat. Thanks for your reaction and as you can see I a big fan of halo since it was such a part of my childhood and so fun to play.

The sparknotes for what happened with Cortana: Cortana got too old for an AI and started fracturing. The cortana in halo 5 is a fracture, and she is corrupted on a power trip and is completely obsessed with The Master Chief. At the end of halo 5, she pulls an army of those “guardians” (the big thing that came out of the desert in the one trailer) and tries to enslave mankind because she believes that AI are superior. She also recruited an army of AI because her insane version found a cure for the aging of AI, called rampancy.

ngl, i'd bow down to Cortana.

I think all the Halo games in the Master Chief Collection are great, if you like the trailers you should try them since they are all playable in splitscreen! Halo 5 is the only game that's just meh, and it doesn't even have splitscreen. Luckily Halo Infinite seems to be great and I can't wait for the campaign! There are also 4 Halo movies if you're interested: *Halo: Fall of Reach* tells the origin story of the Master Chief *Halo 4: Forward unto Dawn* is a prequel for Halo 4 and introduces Lasky, a new character in Halo 4 *Halo Nightfall* is a prequel for Halo 5 and introduces Locke, a new character in Halo 5 *Halo Legends* is a collection of anime short movies in the Halo Universe, similar to Star Wars Visions.

Little backstory about the first Spartans. Before humanity had contact with the Covenant, Earth's colonies were starting to develop insurrections and ONI (the intelligence and black ops division of Earth's military) decided to develop in secret a new type of soldier that could put down hot spots quickly and quietly. They abducted large groups of children and trained them to be the ultimate soldiers. When they were old enough, the candidates underwent extreme surgeries. Their bones were reinforced with extremely durable plating, and they were subjected to genetic modification to make them bigger and several times stronger than the average human. Those that survived the surgeries were given Mjolnir armor suits that further enhanced their strength and durability. Master Chief was one of the first Spartans and quickly rose to become one of the best. When humanity made first contact with the Covenant, it quickly became clear that a new kind of weapon would be needed to fight them. So by sheer luck, the Spartans were made just in time to lead the fight.

As a person whose played only Halo side games, like ODST and Reach, I can say they are great. If you ever want to listen to a soundtrack to go to sleep, play ODST's track with the rain still in. It's so relaxing it's almost mediative, while still holding to the atmosphere. As for Reach. Well, the game is great! Though if you know the story of reach, the games events aren't too much of a spoiler or a surprise. But, it does have a good amount of emotion to it that tugs just right.

So, what you saw in the Halo 4 Scanned trailer was a brief synopsis of the history of Master Chief Petty Officer John-117 and the 74 other Spartan-IIs. Kidnapped from their homes and replaced by doomed to die flash clones at the age of 6 back in 2517, they were conscripted and indoctrinated into the UNSC military to become supersoldiers to combat human rebellion amongst the colonies. In 2525, at 14, they went through physical and chemical augmentations, a process that killed half of them. That same year, the Covenant appeared, and the Spartan-IIs were pressed into service a bit ahead of schedule. From there, they saw some of the most brutal campaigns of the entire 27 year long war. By the time it was all over, John, the Master Chief, was presumed the only remaining Spartan-II, though a small handful have popped up in the years since the end of the war. By the time of Halo 4, the UNSC has moved on to the far more ethical Spartan-IV Program, which recruits from the existing military. These are the Spartan recruits you see in the Halo Infinite Multiplayer Intro. In between those two were the Spartan-IIIs, who were essentially child suicide soldiers sent deep behind enemy lines to buy humanity time in exchange for their lives.

Thanks for giving us some more info on that trailer and what was going on. Can’t believe they were as young as 14 when going through all of that 😢

[@bbman497lego]

@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames yeah, Halo’s deeper lore, especially when you delve into the novels, is really messed up. It gets really dark, really fast. Such as the Office of Naval Intelligence covertly attempting genocide and fueling civil war amongst the Elites between the events of Halo 3 and 4 all while the UNSC proper and humanity at large were technically allies with them. If you read the books, you’ll very quickly realize ONI are the biggest bad guys in the entire franchise, and they’re technically on your side.

[@iamcinerks6372]

Okay… now you need to react to every cutscene in the halo games. That’s your next stop for halo!!!!!

[@iamcinerks6372]

or do a playthrough series !!!!! please

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Since it is couch coop. A playthrough is something we want to do 😇🥳

[@supremercommonder]

halo war 2 trailer is a must watch aswell

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

On our list to check out for future 😅

[@youngwindmillgang3239]

they release the multiplayer today by surprise and ive never felt like a five year old on Chrisman like this in a while i love this game to death fun fact this game was born the same year i was that's another reason why i hold this series close to heart as ive deadass have grown up with halo though out every year of my life me and halo are the same age lol

OK, hear me out. So, Halo is an incredible franchise to get into and your reactions to these were absolutely fantastic! If you want more, I actually think you would really enjoy watching the anniversary compilation of all the cutscenes for the videogame, which has all the story and awesome graphics in it. The video itself is about 50 minutes, so it WOULD be a long reaction (which y'all could break up into multiple parts) but it would be incredibly worth it. The story and impeccable character design, along with the beautiful graphics would make for a reaction video I think we ALL would love to see. Not to mention, it would be like...a movie of sorts that you can watch and get an awesome story with it! The video itself is easy to find as well, just typing in Halo 2 Movie into youtube and it should be the second one that pops up. Over all, your reactions and your guys videos are amazing and I am extremely happy to have found and subscribed to y'all. KEEP ON BEING AWESOME!

[@ishmaelthegreat1893]

you actually got a glimpse of the cutscenes I was talking about in the Halo 2 Anniversary Cinematic Launch. It was in this video, at 2:48- 5:01. If you reacted to the 'movie', it would basically be 50 minutes of THAT level of awesomness.

[@uthergoodman401]

@@ishmaelthegreat1893 they are actually gonna do a playthrough so they'll see the cutscenes when they play

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

😎🤟🥳 looking forward to seeing the story eventually for Halo 2 as well as the others 😀

First time through, it's generally recommended to play them in release order. Halo CE (1), 2, 3, ODST, 4, 5, Infinite. Halo Wars 1/2 are strategy games, they're still great games but very different in gameplay from the rest, and take place before everything (HW1) and after 5 (HW2). Halo War 2 also introduces The Banished, the seeming antagonist for Halo Infinite. If you play them chronologically, it would go Halo Wars 1, Halo CE, 2, ODST (it's a spin-off that takes place on Earth during the events of Halo 2 and 3), 3, 4, 5, Halo Wars 2, and Infinite.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

We will probably do them in order of release but skip the Halo wars and just watch any cutscenes for those and 5 since 5 isn’t couch coop and that is just criminal 😢😤

[@effortlessfury]

I like to have people play ODST before H3 considering they use the same engine and ODST takes place first, but otherwise I agree.

[@cs3473]

You forgot Halo Reach...

[@gabmoreno280]

I think the Marketing Campaign for HALO 5 Gaurdians was very Metaphorical because the actual game made a lot of people confused I for one really enjoy it but definitely it feels like something is off (as if there was going to be a part 2 to Halo 5) hopefully HALO INFINITE explains and shows us what happened after Halo 5

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Hopefully they bring back couch co-op for Halo Infinite 🙂

[@gabmoreno280]

@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames yeah I hope so too I definitely recommend playing the oldest to even the most recent game and how fun they can be to annoying (cus the enemy’s act randomly sometimes ) at times

i should really need to re-download 1 in this series

The reason why that girl got taller when she became a Spartan is because Spartans undergo augmentations that make them taller and stronger. Their armor weighs several tons if I recall correctly. During the Human-Covenant War it was a dangerous process to undergo and it wasn't exactly done in a moral way. After the war, they made the process safer so becoming a Spartan became similar to something like joining the Navy SEALs or Delta Force.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Thanks for helping explain that bit 😊

[@klmt_vasilis5455]

Thank God I have you guys and I catch a breath and you give me a relief from school Also congratulations we are getting closer to 100k #roadto100k

Sorry school has been so stressful but glad we can take your mind off of it for a little while 🤗

[@darkstar4977]

After il seeing the reach trailer i gotta say, the symbolism in that game is so subtle I’ve beaten the game a dozen times and never noticed. HEAVY SPOILERS: Carter: noble teams captain, dies in his ship Cat: the brains, gets shot in the head Emile: close quarters specialist, stabbed in the chest Jorge: heavy weapons specialist, dies in explosion from heavy ordinance. June: the sniper and survivalist, lives on. And lastly, noble six: lone wolf, dies alone.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Thanks for giving us the spoiler alert as we are interested very much in Reach 😊

[@darkstar4977]

@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames its a beauty guys, one of the best games on the market and very popular and well known for not only customization and game play, but for the great story 😊 glad to see it’s still getting the attention it deserves.

[@SilverViper1000]

I am a bit late, but just to mention it: The trailers he liked are for the most hated halo game. The trailer she liked was for halo 3 and was ment as pilot teaser for the Halo movie back then. I guess it was made by Steven Spielberg. But the whole movie was scratched and we got District 9 instead with a lot of props made originally for this landfall trailer

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

Bummer that the games had great trailers for Halo 5 but then the game turned out to be terrible ☹️

[@masufame]

just saw this today,and it seems that i will be on time for the next 5k celebration 🍷

Yay! 🥳🥳🍾🥂

[@raizenr2387]

Reach is my personal Favorite~ Love the whole series though. I honestly think there is good in every game. Except letting Kat drive. Anything.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

We look forward to getting back to it. 3 and odst will be next for us to play when we do 🙂

[@airmobiledivision7759]

You guys should check out the “Believe” series of Halo 3 trailers. Really well-done.

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

We plan to at some point 😀

[@oAazo]

You guys should totally play the entire halo series!

[@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames]

We may not play Wars but we will play the others 😀

[@oAazo]

@@DefinitelyNotDefinitiveGames oh thats fine! Wars is okay but all you need is Halo 1,2,3,4 and 5. And then obviously Infinite! Excited for that one!

It was awesome seeing you guys watch these trailers in almost complete silence (Of course comments will be made, but thank you guys for not talking over the entirety of the videos) and complete respect to a game series you guys aren't die hard fans of

We like to immerse ourselves in trailers we watch. Our style isn’t for everyone that wants those big reactions and constant dialogue. But we’re glad for those that appreciate it ☺️🤗😊

halo 2 brutes were so powerfull you had 1 option empty your clip and switch weapons and maybe you could kill them...they got nerfed for sure, but a great game none the less
