15 Years of Halo - Share your fondest memory!

It was invasion on a forge world map. My buddies and I were playing as the elites trying to pull the core. The carrier was getting shot at, so we all banded together to take shots for him. We're making it through an open field toward the cave from hemorrhage, and all of sudden a scorpion rolls by and blasts all of us. We were laughing and shouting into the mic, overall a fun night.

a lot of chips on the sofa and sometime many fingers bleed !!

My "fondest" memory to the halo legacy was realizing that master chef had not died and that the game series would be continuing.

My fondest Halo memory goes back to when I was six and played split screen with my brothers on CE. We got all serious and pretended like we were soldiers in the game. Moving up slowly, giving orders to halt etc etc. Pretty goofy to think back on now, but hey we were kids. And I don't really spend time with my bros like the old days, so its always a great memory to go back to.

CE in the dorms with my friends...the constant bickering, thrown objects, getting elbowed in the chest because you were about to kill the guy sitting next to you. It's not any one moment in the game or a specific match itself, but the camaraderie that sticks to me.

Honestly my favorite memory isn't something that happened in game.

My mom bought me H3 for Xmas one year. Not knowing I didn't need it. I'd never blame her though, she was doing her damn best and I love her for that!

But this was just after H4 was released, obvi. So when my friends kept asking me when I was gonna get H4, I had to keep stalling because I simply couldn't afford it. And I think they caught on to that. So on the night after Christmas I was just sitting in my room playing H3 when they texted me to come outside. So I go outside and they're parked in my driveway. So I knock on the window and they roll it down and say "This is for you. Go get your 360." And they handed me a copy of H4.

I ran back inside and grabbed my stuff and got ready to go. And I told my mom that they got me the latest Halo. But I immediately through her a huge hug because I know she doesn't keep up with the game (she's a remarried mom why the hell would she lol) and I know she was just buying it for me to make me happy. And I'm forever grateful for that. I love my mom so much.

So anyway, I got in my friend's car and we headed to his basement and the three of us played Halo for the next 4 days basically non-stop. Easily one of the greatest memories I have from my life in general. And definitely my greatest Halo memory.

Oh mine huh.

Can I be really cheesy and say, seeing the community evolve over the years. Without you all, Halo wouldn't be the same. From the epic conversations on several forums, the lore debates with some of the most smartest Halo fans I know, seeing the community help those in need, the general banter with everyone, to meeting my real dad in matchmaking(that last one was a joke) ;)

And while we might have some down times, I always know the community will get back up, cause if I know one thing about it, the community is persistent. Lets go for another 15 years everyone.

I can imagine how many times all of you had the temptation to do screen-cheat XD

Halo is 1 year older then me

Oh man I would easily say that my very fondest memories would be Halo 3's Custom Games. Me and my friends has a hell of a time on it. To this day I still call those day "The Good Ol Days"
