Today’s game is Halo CE. Yes. I know. ‘Halo Again?’. I was kind of left to my own devices with another friend tonight. The others had a date or were too sleepy or yadayada. You know the story. So me and this friend decided to just hop into Halo CE and dick around in the campaign. You can see the aftermath above.
It’s fun. I’m so used to playing on legendary, and while that doesn’t take out all the fun, it does put some pressure on me I hadn’t noticed before. Without the pressure of struggling against legendary we did things like:
Drive a car off a cliff,
Drive another car off a cliff,
Hit each other with the 3rd car repeatedly,
And then drive that one off the cliff
All around a good time. It really brings back a level of chill with the game I hadn’t experienced in a while. I had a little too much fun though and forgot to get photos.
The level of fun though, In a way, makes me dread going back to finish LASO, though I already dread that on its own. It definitely has given me something to compare it to again.
There was Truth and Reconciliation, which was the furthest we got. By now we had sunk nearly an hour in. This level is my run killer though. I was tired and it was just taking too long. We got stuck on one specific part and I had enough. I wouldn’t call it a rage quit but I definitely acknowledged I was tired and did not have the battery to handle that level. Which sucks because the rest of the campaign is really good to me.

Just your average co-op gameplay! Love it, glad you had fun! I have so many memories of Halo CE. What a grand time in the early 2000s :D
All I remember about multiplayer Halo is Blood Gulch and spawn camping with the warthog. If someone else realized what you were doing and helped, you could just circle the other spawn platform and vulcanize the spawners. Was fun
Never understood Halo. There were a lot of games that were better: Quake, Quake 2, Return to the castle Wolfenstein, igi, igi 2 covert strike, splinter cell.

My favorite fps

I remember all the maps. All the game modes. And the joy. And multiplayer fun!
Blood Gulch is the most famous map. But there are other very good maps as well.
I like Timerland a lot. Fun driving with the car. But there are more nice maps.
Damn you, now I want to play Halo too! I guess I’ll finally try out the VR mod.

Halo was always an outsider for me
Mate, just try it. Halo is awesome. The multiplayer was great as well back in the days. So much fun.
Today the multiplayer is of course not so much alive anymore, but there are still a lot of players. At least try the campaign once. Just try it.
Same with Portal. Also a very much unrated game imo.
Today the games aren’t made anymore like this.
Also Unreal 2
