Used to play this game when I was a kid. I didn't really have all the "new consoles" so I was kinda stuck playing on the Wii or the Xbox. This game has so much nostalgia for me as when I was 6 this was the coolest shit ever. Thanks, Halo 2.
This game stands alone in the Halo series for its incredible cinematic approach to storytelling. Not to mention the story itself is so much better than in any other entry. It’s just so layered and nuanced, the dialogue is brilliant, and it begins to incorporate the lore in a way that doesn’t feel hamfisted as fuck (cough cough H4). Perfect amount of mystique as well. It’s like Bungie realized how intriguing the underdeveloped concepts from CE were and said hold on a second let’s take a more in-depth look at all that shit. Then H3 came around and fucked it all up.
This the biggest downgrade in terms of level design I've ever seen in a sequel. It's starts fine but by the end becomes just complete dogshit with the worst checkpointing I've ever seen. Gravemind in particular actually made me nostalgic for The Library.
