How Old Were You When You First Experienced Halo?
I was about 11 or 12 at a friends house. I didn't have an xbox yet so I was really excited every time I went over because I knew we'd play Halo!. The good memories are still there though. You?
EDIT: Don't forget to tell of the first experience or memories!

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] jtulkas I was 16 when it came out. Before Halo CE came out, my friends would have Goldeneye 007 N64 parties every weekend. As soon as Halo came out, that is what we jumped to.[/quote]This is my EXACT story, actually, haha. Halo CE dropped when I was a junior in high school. We were obsessed with Goldeneye (and Doom before that), but once Halo CE came out, we spent hundreds of hours playing LAN games against each other.

i was in the seventh grade so i think i was 13, it was when halo 3 was coming out and one of my friends was drinkin mountain dew game fuel at the lunch table. and all i knew about halo was that there was a black guy but i didnt know his name. so my friend kept talkin about this master chief guy so i figuered it was the black guy(later to find out the black dude was sgt. johnson)and then i heard about the flood and how you have to kill it. so i went out and forced my gma to buy me halo 2, then later my dad got me halo 3,and wars. then my mom got me odst lol fun memories.
-
5 years old. Im not joking it was halo 2 :)
-
I had knew about Halo since I was like 6 but I didn't like it because when I played it (very few times) the people would know everything about the game and wouldn't let me even get to know the controls but then my mom hooked up with a guy when i was 9 (after divorce) and he had an xbox and combat evolved and i fell in love <3

8 wayyyy back at my cousins house. distant memories.

about 5 i know it sounds wieird but i was 5 and i was playin on demos on my xbox i thought it said hello so i went on it and the mission where you storm the beach i -blamed!- myself when i seen the elites. i stoped playin it for about 3 year and my m8 invited me round his and we played on halo again but i didnt know it was the same game i thought it was funny to see hunters charge at my freind and falling of a cliff because he jumped out the way. i asked him wat the game was called it was halo i remembered the elites instantly and decided to get halo ce ive been in love with halo ever since [Edited on 08.12.2011 11:01 AM PDT]

6 or 7 i think.
-
the first halo game I played was halo 2 in that first level and I kept dying on easy so I used to just hide and let the marines kill them
-
Okay... 4! I'm not kidding. I played it round my cousin's house. We played AOTCR and Wizard. I have all Halo games. P.S: I love you Bungie! [Edited on 08.11.2011 12:18 PM PDT]

i was 5 or 6. maybe even 4. i saw halo for the first time when my older cousin brought his xbox and halo 3. but i never played it until i was 5-6. i never understood the game until i was 12 and had played through all the halo campaigns. that was about 2 months ago.

About 10.

Ah the nostalgia... I was 8 or 9, in. The rowdy neighborhood teens let me in their house and we played Halo 2 I got frustrated playing 4 player splitscreen on Lockout. But I loved the graphics and complexity. I waited a few month game. My friend Johnny had an Xbox and Halo 2 as well. I met him later on and we played Halo 2. I got my butt handed to him the first few months I played with him. But then I slowly got better and he couldn't hold the skill on me. 2009, I was 10 and I got the 360 and Halo 3. I was so excited, the campaign was brilliant. I was drawn towards the game every day I played it. I got Xbox live 2 months later. I quickly made about 20 friends I had from school mostly. I had so many great custom games with my friends. Late 2009 my birthday came and I received all the map packs. My god I became so good my friends actually envied me, I thought of becoming MLG. I got ODST in Christmas. My first beta, Halo Reach. I became frenzied to buy the full game. It was a VERY good beta. Halo Reach came out and I got it. My mind was blown. Good graphics amazing gameplay. Man, It was fun. I had so many good times playing. I Have had so many good times and counting. GT: MoB x Epsilon if anyone wants to play custom games w/ me.

Ten I think. I played Combat Evolved at my friends house and I loved it.
-
I was about seven or eight when I first played halo combat evolved. It was at my cousins place which was about a one hour drive from where i live but I will never forget the memories playin splitscreen with my cousin and his friends. But I would get owned by them since I truly sucked at halo. but still good memories
-
I was thirteen or so, so I guess you could say I'm new to the franchise. I started out with Halo PC, then bought a 360 later on and ODST and jumped feet first into Halo 3's multiplayer. Good times were had. After that I became an avid Halo fan thanks to Machinima, Arby n' The Cheif, Red vs Blue, etc. You get the idea. I watched Halo 3's [url=http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=90GxgdiUJdIE]E6 2006 Trailer[/url] for the first time and it gave me chills; I knew I had to get that game.
-
5 years old. My step-dad introduced it to me. Lol i remember when i saw the grunts in the first level, i ran back to Keyes and shot him in the face and freaked out because Cortana yelled at me.
-
I was 10 when i first played Halo i got it with my Xbox360 (BTW it was Halo 3)
-
I was 4 when i started playing halo (Halo Combat Evolved when it first came out).
-
2001? I was... 24. (Holy Sh** !!!) My friends and I were so hyped about the Xbox back then! We waited for it to come out, we were so dam* tired of the Playstation. Even though it was a risk (new console trying to grab a foothold of Sony and Nintendo's dominance) all the game hype we had heard about Halo had convinced us. We bought our Xbox's just before Halo dropped, and we bought our copies on the day that Halo: Combat Evolved dropped. We almost couldn't get the packages open fast enough (I'm surprised that the discs survived the onslaught...), we figured out how to link four Xbox's together, and had our first LAN party! Oh the magic! No more split screening, we could have multiplayer without having the screen divided up into 2-4 little plots... It's an experience I will never forget. Since then, when Xbox Live was debuted for/with Halo 2 (I was shocked in the ViDoc that Bungie pretty much wrote Xbox Live and made it work. That's so cool!), Matchmaking and online gaming has gotten so great! But I will never forget buying an Xbox just for Halo and taking that risk, and having it be the best decision I have ever made in gaming.

I was 10. My brother visited with Halo games. I never wanted to play Mario Kart again.
-
7. 17 now. And am ready to play an UPGRADED version of the best game I've ever played in my life.
-
I was in 3rd grade, so about 6 or 7. It was the first time i ever went over to my friends house, and the first time id ever heard of the xbox or halo. we played The pillar of Autumn, and i got lost as soon as i hopped out of the cryo-pod, pissed my friend off so much haha. Then I didnt play it again for a couple years when i was invited over to that same friends new house for a sleep over, and we had a massive LAN party with all our friends. it was awesome.
