I’m sorry for your loss man. I’m in the process of buying a second hand xbox 360 just so I can play the original halo 2 and not the lack lustre MCC. It just doesn’t feel right. The original is always the best. It’s amazing to think how much gaming can unite relationships. You were obviously related, but had so many memories with each other of this game and that’s something you will cherish for the rest of your life. Video games is more than a video game. It unites people together and gives you so many good memories. If there’s one downfall it’s that you will look back and wish you can do it all again. One day you will reunite with your brother and heaven will supply you with an Xbox and a 2000s square tv and let you relive the beautiful moments you had together.

It's 3am on Saturday morning, and even though I should go to bed, I really dont want to yet, so I just sit and watch and listen to this menu for a while before I finally shut the xbox off.

I remember I got this a few years after it released. I was a little late on the series, but I started playing Halo CE on the original Xbox that my dad bought my brother and I for Christmas. I remember on Christmas eve, me, my brother and my mom came home from the store (we were getting a fun dinner) and when we got home, we heard something playing in the living room, on surround sound. Lmao, my dad said "Hold on, don't come in yet!" And I wondered what he was hiding. My dad told us on Christmas morning, (after we opened our gifts) that he couldn't stop playing Halo CE because it was the best FPS he ever played, and got cought up in it way longer than he thought he would. That's how he almost spoiled it lol. Too funny! It was such a good time. Christmas morning couldn't get any better! I discovered a game that I absolutely fell in love with, in only a day. Played it splitscreen with my dad and brother all the time. Halo 2 was given to me on my birthday later that year. I played through the campaign with them on that game as well. Also, me and my best friend Andy played the campaign on Halo 2 Legendary all night. We got stuck on the boss at the end. For like 2 hours! Then we were like "Ugghh, let's just punch him in the face and go to bed. Don't care if we die anymore." We messed around with that mission, seeing how long we could avoid him, T-bag next to him and just goof off. xD lol we'll never forget how much we enjoyed the story, gameplay and the all night snacking. Good times!

The year was 2004, I was in 4th grade 10 years old. My grandparents were still alive, my parents were still married, me and my brother were still best friends. World of Warcraft was new, Star Wars Galaxies was new, Battlefield 1942 was still fresh, Medal of Honor had the world captivated still. Half Life 2 and Counter Strike Source had just been released. We had Dexters Lab and Edd Ed and Eddie on TV. Movie channels had Robocop and Terminator on replay. School was a struggle and effected my behavior so greatly, I counted the hrs until I could come home and play games. Halo 2 was on the horizon. The day finally came and everything changed from that point forward. I have so many great memories associated with Halo 2 I can literally shed tears to every single piece of music from this series from Combat Evolved to Halo Reach. I have an amazing memory associated with every track. If God gave me the chance to go back and relive those memories in real time I wouldn’t hesitate for a moment.

I have played every Halo game with him up until the games after Halo 4. The last words my brother and I heard from him are “I won’t see you guys for a really long time” I haven’t seen him in over 6 years... I don’t even know what he is doing right now but I believe he might be homeless or in prison... pretty rough stuff.

I mean there’s always ways around it but don’t disrespect your parents wishes lol, just ask them at some point, there’s plenty of videos out there showing how to play Halo Project Cartographer for free(it’s actually free and virus free)

"Nurse, if you don't mind, can you please play this song while I am stuck to this bed?" *smiles* "Of course, sir." "Thank you." *nurse turns around to walk out of the room but is stopped* "wait-" *she turns back to him* "If you would, im feeling very tried and I.... I would like to see the sunset again." *nurses thinks for a second and then lowers her tone* "Yes, of course, sir." *she tools his bed to the side of the window where he can get a 4th floor, 26th room, northwest side view of the sunset* *he slowly turns to his left, and looks at the sunset* "Will that be all sir?" "Yes, that will. You have been a fine nurse and a wonderful young woman. Go and see what else is out there, so that you can see this type of sunset, just one more time. For me, please?" *she swallows, as she starts to tear up* "Yes sir, I understand." *he smiles* "Go on now, no need to see a whiney old bag like me anymore!" *she chuckles with him briefly before wiping away her tears* "Goodbye, sir." "Goodbye, Olivia. One final thing, tell my family, especially my younger ones, to go and live as I did, so they can look on, look at the sunset just one more time, and see me?" "Yes sir, of the sir. I am honored to" "Bless your heart, Olivia. And thank you" *she slowly and respectfully bows* *she turns around and quietly and peacefully walks out of the room and shuts the door right before turning on his requested song on the TV.* *this song plays* *he turns to his left and see the once in a lifetime spring sunset* *he breathes a long sigh and slowly smiles. As his mind drifts away, and he slowly rests his head back, and ever so slowly, closes his eyes; one final time. As he had just looked at that ever so beautiful late spring sunset, one. Last. Time.* Now THAT is how I wanna go.

thanks for reminding me of my childhood

[@strangegaming3060]

Menus used to be simpler. It used to be things like this - a camera panning and rotating around some miniature with epic music in the background. If this was a modern game, the screen would be cluttered with advertisements for the in-game store. This is art.

[@lonerabbitty7477]

Is it bad that right now in my right ear, with no earbud in, I can hear the sound effects of navigating the menu of this game???

[@halohunter5283]

Nope! You’re just reliving the sweet nostalgic memories :D

[@jordanericbaird2724]

My head forcibly makes me hear every old sound from this iconic menu. I can almost see the actual game playing too.

[@arn3107]

i wish i played halo growing up . . . i didn't get the chance to make memories or have fun with friends and now i've grown very anti-social i love halo, wish my past days were spent playing it people are getting nostalgic and i wish i could relate to that, but i guess i'm not lucky enough but at least i am alive and can enjoy this awesome music right now it's not all bad

[@halohunter5283]

Man I’m really sorry to hear that :( but nows your chance to change that! After listening to this awesome music, go hop on a game and make some new memorable experiences!

[@arn3107]

@@halohunter5283 haha, thanks, no need to to be sorry, it's just a game, after all and i would, but i am very busy nowadays so i don't think i'll be able to play any games also none of my irl friends know about halo lol

[@giygas9305]

Damn. None of my friends really play Halo, I play it because nostalgia. I loved the few chances I got to play this game as a kid. I still remember my first kill I ever got on Online Multiplayer.

Thank you so much for making this!

Can’t believe it’s been 20 years! I need a Time Machine!

[@shadycesar8959]

Ah I remember as a kid, In my uncles room waiting on this menu while my cousins where setting up the lan in the other 2 rooms. The menu theme blasting away because my uncle loved his surround sound speakers.

[@castr0w0rld98]

Greatest game of all time. God, I miss being a kid.

I’ve never played Halo 2 but I can feel the nostalgia from all these other comments
