"You are humanity's final hope.................HALO..............Combat Evolved."
Wow!! That really does bring back fond memories. Halo found me December of 2001. I was 26 at the time. I was visiting a friend's house for Christmas and he wanted to show me this "awesome" new game that had been released with this "new" console. I had seen commercials on TV advertising this beast of a machine but it was new and I was unsure of the quality so opted not to purchase.............yet. I too had the Playstation 2 (the big bulky one that was released first) and the Playstation.
So we popped the disc in and there it was. It was Halo. My friend handed me the "fatty" controller and I began playing and remember thinking "Wow, the Playstation doesn't look THIS pretty". We ended up playing until 3 a.m. Needless to say, the next day I owned the XBOX and Halo. Haven't looked back and still have my original Halo: CE.
The closer the release date gets, the more difficult it is to maintain my patience, lol!!
Thanks for the vids AD and the trip down memory lane, lol!!!
