Suddenly, it's 4 in the morning several years ago...and I've just survived the Warthog run for the first time.

That conductor makes me believe that she, too, plays Halo.

I really love that video game music finally gets recognized more often by serious orchestras.

it got the vocals part from HALO:CE
it got the electric guitar from HALO 2
and it got the Piano fanfare from HALO 3
This truly is the perfect HALO Trilogy Theme

"You mind telling me what you're doing in that brass section, Chief?"
"Sir, finishing this arrangement."

"That was a good game bro"
"Yeah bro, see you tomorrow"
"Sure"

This should be the official anthem of gaming.

[ImperialWatson]

Permission to leave the station?
For what purpose Master Chief?
To give the Covenant back their bomb...

To all the girlfriends out there who say their boyfriends don’t show emotion: play them this

[TheHammersmashdave]

When halo first came out, it was one of the most life-defining, emotional experiences of my entire life. I was 13 and my older brother who was my inseparable best friend throughout our entire childhood was 16, so we had already had so many incredible gaming experiences playing things together our entire childhoods. Our dad pre-ordered the new Microsoft video game console that was supposed to be the future. We drove to the nearest mall where the closest EB games was, filled out our preorder card, two controllers and 3 games: Tony Hawk 2x, Dead Or Alive 3, and a brand new IP we'd never heard of called Halo. When the preorder came in, it was on a school night mid week. We rushed straight out to pick it up after school, and came straight home from picking it up to finally check it out. We played DOA for maybe 3 minutes before immediately turning that garbage off, and played Tony Hawk for a few hours which ruled. After getting bored with Tony Hawk eventually in the evening, with our parents sitting on the couch watching, we both sat on the floor in front of the tv and turned halo on for the first time, with the lights off, everybody focused and ready to see what this new game was. I will never, ever forget hearing that intro music for the first time, seeing that opening screen, and looking around at everybody, realizing that we were all collectively thinking "something major is about to go down..." We ended up staying up all night playing it, pulled an all-nighter, and our parents let us stay home from school the next day to finish the game. When we beat it, I cried. It absolutely smoked all of us. That first time playing through the first halo game is an experience I will cherish for the rest of my life, and an experience I have been able to replicate very, very few times with other games.
