  • Forerunners be praised!

  • Halo 2 Soundtrack vs Halo 3 Soundtrack

    Who would ask this? Its too obvious that halo 2 wins

  • Why the hell doesn't microsoft put Halo 2 up in the dashboard to download like they did with Halo: CE and do with 360 games? Then dedicate some servers so we can play Halo 2!

  • without halo the xbox wouldnt be poupular just like without some games on ps3 it wouldnt be popular

  • HALO 2 *_* Best games of the world ! I LOVE HALO (exepted halo reach)

  • marty o donell music has amazed me for ten years and will continue for years to come

  • Keyes...Jacob...captain...serv­ice number 01928-19912-jk...

  • halo 2 was the best...why? cause they focused more on the elites story than the humans..the elites story is jam packed with faith and religion, heresy and all that shit...

    i guess those that love halo 2 are suckers for religion xD

  • i hope they make a halo 2 anniversary

  • @EPICnJAM that would be great

  • @EPICnJAM

    But they already made Halo 2, why bother wasting your money JUST for better graphics?

  • @Oskarmandude1 because i want to play halo 2 matchmaking again

  • @EPICnJAM

    Well, Halo 1 Anniversary only had 5 maps, one Halo 2 map and one firefight map, FOR REACH. I thought a "Fully remastered" remake would have all the maps. It's just a reskin. It's only going to a have a limited number of maps if it does come out. And if it does, it won't be Halo 2's matchmaking.

    If you want Halo 2's matchmaking, then get Halo 2 Vista.

    It's not going to be Halo 2 matchmaking

  • High Charity... The name brings me back the good memories and it soundtracks makes me live halo 2 like i was there. What happened to microsoft? I thougt Microsoft were a good company. Now i see everything made by microsoft is heading to the path of The Unknown ...

  • @50Robotized

    Umm... Microsoft merely published Halo.

  • Damn this music never gets old, they reallynnedd to separate the music compositions better so your not forced to have to rewind through to the bet parts

  • Halo 2 > everything

  • All the Halos were amazing in their own respect, they all have powerful story lines and balanced/fair gameplay. It is not a competition as to which Halo is the best, the entire franchise is incredible.

  • So uplifting. :)

  • Comment removed

  • Oh, wait. This is the soundtrack for the Keyes terminal in Halo CEA. Finally, I found it!

  • Ah Halo......what happened to you? You're all but a shadow of what you once where.

  • @Yallniggasbetrollin 2 words....."Halo Reach"

  • @Sc0ttyz23 well reach wasnt TOO bad at least its better than halo 3 and i didnt mean to insult halo 3 because it was pretty good as well

  • @auditoreman268

    Better than Halo 3?

    Reach is a glitch paradise covered in shit.

  • @Oskarmandude1 well look at it this way:halo 3 doesnt have firefight and you cant customize your armor exept for multiplayer and not that much anyways plus you might think "well what about halo 3 ODST" but a lot of people think halo 3 ODST is.....i mean WAS a $60 DLC PLUS i havent run into any "glitches covered in shit" so i say again it may not be as good as halo 1 and 2 but at least its better than halo 3......oh plus the campaign is longer

    halo 3: 3 hours

    halo reach: 2 days

  • @auditoreman268 reach is not better than halo 3. and since you believe it is...than it means that explaining WHY its not better will only fall on deaf ears

  • @auditoreman268

    LOLNO I beat Reach's campaign on the first day, Hal o3's campaign took me 3 or 5 days.

  • @Oskarmandude1 well it took me 3 hours to beat halo 3 and it took me 2 days to beat halo reach all on the same difficulty plus as i said halo reach has firefight plus you have more weapons and the only down fall that both games have is when you do legendary difficulty it might as well have been MW2 on normal difficulty and if it takes you 3 or 5 days to beat halo 3 on EASY then you must suck cus as i said it only took me 3 hours to beat it

  • @auditoreman268

    I didn't beat it on Easy, I beat it on normal, but my Halo console skills have slightly gone down after playing Halo PC.

  • @Oskarmandude1 ah i seeeeee said the blind man.........to the deff woman LOL

  • "Keyes, Jacob. Service number..." So epic.

  • "My... My name... I've forgotten my name......" Fucking love 343 for putting that in Anniversary (No spoilers :p)

  • look up at the night sky while listening to this song... you will see God.

  • It brings me back to that time... i almost cryed the first time i heard this amazing sountrack.

  • Why this song make me sad and seem like heaven :O

    Brings alot of flashbacks for sure.

  • "Creatures off The Covenant . . . the Path is broad and we shall walk it side by side"

    Terrence Stamp is an awesome actor and all but he had nothing on Truth's VA for Halo 2. He was an awesome Evil Preacher with a voice like altar wine. EVIL altar wine.

  • This song reminds me of having hope that Halo 2 would end up being rediculously epic. This was shortly shot down by the worst videogame cliff hanger to date.

  • please put this track in halo 4 for the forerunners

    

  • the people who made Halo saved my life. Halo is more than just a game

  • @emmanuel94e

    Halo saved your life?

    Lol.

    Ironic because Halo is a weapon (story wise) XD

  • @emmanuel94e i so agree. even with my popularity on youtube, I never would have achieved it without halo. I have never really had any friends until halo was part of my life. When I joined XBL, I had tons of friends, people just like me, who wouldn't make fun of me for who I was. Without it, im not sure how much longer I could live in this dying world.

  • @V1rtualFlod lol you amuse me

  • @TheForgottenBlackMan that is because your just a conformist. You dont know half of the world around you... you are controlled.

  • @V1rtualFlod ACtually, give me about 10 years, And I will be a Revolutionary in control of America and the European Union with hundreds of millions on my side.

  • @TheForgottenBlackMan ya... right... keep dreaming...

  • @TheForgottenBlackMan lol what you talkin bout? the future is in china dude. + in 10 years how old will you be 17?

  • @ReachForgeNetwork <----- Look at my profile

  • @TheForgottenBlackMan You're fucking retarded!:D

  • @sgteltorcho Mock me now, but when we shall see whose retarded once You're scrubbing my toilets and wiping my asshole with your hands.

  • @TheForgottenBlackMan I find it disturbing how you want people to wipe your ass with their hands. That's a little kinky, don't you think?

  • This song is the reason my sperm count is so low (i jizz every 10 seconds listening to this masterpiece)

  • @deltronzer then dont jerk to the song :)

  • @deltronzer eew WTF not even funny

  • @deltronzer If you don't jizz to this song you obviously don't like it as much as us. Problem?

  • Is this the soundtrack for heaven?

  • @XISAVAGEV1 lolol...I don't know man, but it sends shivers up my spine. I still remember how I would just stop playing at look at the city of High Charity and the Forerunner ship. Just gaze and wonder. This track brings me to another world- and it just so happens that it plays when we are on "High Charity" another world (the covenant's) :)

  • @XISAVAGEV1 I KNOW RIGHT. this is what God sounds like

  • This song is great and a little bit sad. But kinda sucks at 2:03.

  • I see a very depressing image of a ruined city when i hear this. large office towers and apartments abandoned and dark, several on fire, partially or completely collapsed. the air full of brimstone, the sun shining through a smoke filled sky. police cruisers with their lights on with the officers dead nearby trying to protect the citizens who's bodies remain scattered around. children's swings creak in the silence, a small child, still clutching their teddy in the smouldering ruins of their city

  • @CHUBBLE117

    damn your right dude.. sadness. but hope remains. one green gleaming beckon of hope.

  • every time i hear this i feel like i am missing out on somethin in halo

  • @mike104740

    Have you played Halo 2?

  • @leopoldmarsh yes i own it

  • halo 2 is the best of halo

  • This was meant to be listened to while gazing up at the stars...

  • When this song played, I would just stop and look over High Charity, and comprehend how huge and incredible it is.

  • @00Helix00 same here man! The song goes great with the feeling of being in a totally unknown alien world :)

  • idk why, but this song really reminds me of the past good times D: like when my grandmother used to make parties then she pasted away. Its so sad listening to this song :(

  • Man, this song just makes me want to meet the Forerunners more and more...

  • I loved every Halo game's soundtrack, but Halo 2 definitely took the cake out of them all!

  • @Bowserpoop97 true, true true :)

  • This also goes nicely with Rainymood!!!!

  • the music makes the game spesial-- and it motivate you to playy harder every time!

  • All the good music better be back in halo 4, halo reach had crappy music.. :|

  • @f500ps Agreed. It was a good game but the soundtrack sucked ass.

  • @f500ps You really think so? I've been a huge fan of the entire franchise since the beginning, and I think that Halo Reach's music was just as strong and groundbreaking as each other game respectively. You have to understand that, since it was a prequel, it needed to have a completely different approach musically. And I thought Marty and Michael did an outstanding job of capturing the essence of the story in their score.

  • @ryanwjuhl There was barely any good soundtracks from reach, was quite shocked after playing through the campaign, but yes, some of the sountracks arn't that bad..

  • @ryanwjuhl agreed, epilouge is just beautiful.

  • halo 4 i hope u have marines help u but there be no way u can contact them :(

  • Reminds me of Brian Eno...

  • best song of Halo 2

  • I put this on my facebook page, and then some kid just says that it was just some guy moaning to backround music. Well you know what? F**k him.

  • oh man the nostalgia! having this song playing while looking over High Charity , the beauty of it even tho it was covenant. NOTHING will ever top that moment in sheer inspiration and awe.

  • Thumbs up if you NEED Marty O'Donnell back for Halo 4,5 and 6!!!

  • When i hear this i always think back to the place where all the grunts just run around and everything is peacefull....and this music just make it........indescribable..... Halo in my <3

  • Your pal, where is he going?

  • Is there an extended version of this?

  • And people think Justin Beiber makes good music...

  • wath is the songo of the covenants????

  • i feel like getting naked n playing halo 2 all the way through.

  • Halo 2 is a master piece of videogames, its story is so genius, so beautiful... halo 3 does too... but halo 2 was ....incredible, i shed a tear in the ending

  • walks through high charity halls....

    Notices a brute honor guard with no attention to me

    sneaks quietly behind brute and prepares for a beatdown

    about to melee...........

    BOOM!!!! Sniped by a jackal sniper -____-

  • so peacful sounding,i love halo 2

  • Reminds me alot of Ending, An Ascent by Brian Eno.

  • por que siempre las mejores músicas la hacen tan cortas

  • Good memories with this game, its like first going to take a cool slightly cold shower then after getting out playing halo 2 with family and friends in the fall and winter seasons, relaxing... Im going to relive the great feelings

  • who is Mendicant Bias? somebody? anybody?....uncle Scar?

  • @4trooper4 A Forerunner AI that went rogue during the Forerunner's war against the flood.

  • Such a travesty that 3 of these fortress class vessels were lain to waste in the insurrection of the forerunner council by Mendicant Bias. The culmination of the last precursor and the flood for the retribution of the forerunner race. Not if the wit of the Didact can help it, aya!

  • @KillswitchEngage1337 either reclaimer or leonidas or in amber clad

  • brutes muderos bastards killing all the grunts on this level running about 2 scared poor grunts drones bugs from hell rip elites and grunts 2 shreds i seconds poor little grunts :(

  • @MrMrsean212 WtF????

  • @BLOODYMITTENZv2 I dont think he has the greatest English

  • "don't make a girl a promise, if you know you can't keep it"

  • @Onderoniziz1 Stop with that shit.

  • I can almost feel the sanctity and holiness of High Charity in this song. Just listening to it, I'm walking down its streets, creeping its catwalks, invisible to the bustling monks, upholders and believers of the holy Covenant.

    I fucking love Halo.

  • bungie should do halo 4

  • @Potatoslice they are mate, halo 4 comes out this november, along whit halo 1 , 10th anniversary edittion

  • @gunnerthedenmark No they aren't. 343 studios is making Halo 4. Bungie (and Mr. O'Donnell) are not going to be doing Halo 4, yet I do have a hunch that they'll return sooner or later...

  • @Edude117 343 is the moste of the crew behind halo 1, (combat evolved) so bungie is not directly in it, but its the same crew, hopefully its better than halo 3, halo 2 and 3 was ok havent played reach and wars, but still i would say that i think halo 4 and the re-do of the first is gonna be better than the 3rd, also, its why they wantet to make the first game agein, course its basically the same people. so yea bungie still lives in the background.

  • @gunnerthedenmark "Most of the crew"? Around 5 people originally from Bungie are in 343 now. It is not "basically the same people". 343 is completely untested and could either screw up Halo forever or bring it to new heights.

  • @DaAwesome1Again nope, more like 10 people from bungie,

  • @DaAwesome1Again He's actually right. 343 is made up of mostly ex-Bungie employees.

  • @BlameTehGermans Yeah, but what I meant was the well-known Bungie guys, not the not-so-well-known people.

    Unless you're saying that I've been misinformed and there are actually a rather large amount of famous Bungie faces in 343, which is great anyway.

    And it's not primarily made out of Bungie people. It's primarily made out of people from other studios - Pandemic, Retro, Blizzard, etc. And the Narrative Designer was Cinematic Designer in Mass Effect 2.

  • @DaAwesome1Again i thought pandemic went under considering theres no mercenaries 3??? Read all about it.

  • @DaAwesome1Again Either way, Halo 4 might be a good game considering that people from Bungie are part of it. I hope they make you play as the master chief on the forrunner world, and then, theres other parts to the campaign where you play as the arbiter hunting down the remians of the covenant with the other sanghelli (elites).

  • @JITTERdUdEepic True. Though I wouldn't like to play as the Arbiter in Halo 4. I somehow feel they wouldn't pull it off well. What I'd like is for them to introduce a new and awesome cast of characters, and one primary villian who is killed off in Halo 4. In Halo 5 onwards to 6, characters start meeting their tragic fates, and the primary villian of Halo 4 returns - alive - as a playable character even as a bigger, more evil threat makes itself known.

  • @DaAwesome1Again I wasn't really thinking of the idea of Halo 5 & 6. Maybe if Halo 4 is good enough, then a possible Halo 5 and 6 might be a good idea. For now, I'm just going to see what happens with Halo 4.

  • @JITTERdUdEepic Mate, Halo 5 and 6 were confirmed along with Halo 4. It's going to be called the Reclaimer Trilogy. So if Halo 4 is bad we can only hope 5 will be better. 343 have planned this as a trilogy from the start, so my guess is the story and character development will be better paced and more consistent than the original trilogy (not that I'm saying the story and characters weren't good. They were.).

    So it'd make sense to have a storyline specifically planned to span 3 games.

  • @DaAwesome1Again Really? I didn't hear about that, I never saw that it said that anywhere, but since they are making Halo 5 and 6, I hope that they recognize that there should be more to it than just being on a hige forerunner world.

  • @JITTERdUdEepic And even if we played as the Arbiter in Halo 4, I'd like for it to be a seperate campaign, or a series of bonus missions, with its own storyline, seperate from the main campaign. Think MW2's Spec Ops except with a consistent storyline and character.

  • @DaAwesome1Again Bonus missions would be nice. Maybe some could take place during parts of the human-covenant war not many know much about. Maybe bonus missions where you play as a marine or covenant elite in the 2520's-40's would be cool.

  • @DaAwesome1Again Bonus missions would be nice. Maybe some could take place during parts of the human-covenant war not many know much about. Maybe bonus missions where you play as a marine or covenant elite in the 2520's-40's would be cool.

  • @DaAwesome1Again Bonus missions would be cool. Maybe there could be some where you play as a marine during the 2520's-40's, because I feel like there isn't much known about what happened in that time period of the Human-Covenant war.

  • @Potatoslice Yh, not 343, i just hope they keep the story straight, and not let it suck

  • The 3 Prophets didnt like this song :p

  • the prothets are bastards and should have a magnum round in each of their heads

  • don't make a girl a promise if you know you can't keep it

  • I think even the Chief would cry if he heard this song!

  • the music at the very begining sounds like the music from the intro of the Halo 4 teaser trailer Hmmmm...

  • awsome

  • High Charity is an unfinished Death Star

  • Thumb this comment if they should bring a level like this in halo 4 Since master chief comes back into it

  • The Covenant is our sworn enemy. But...*sigh*....I can't ignore the beauty of High Charity! What a feat of engineering. The individual Elite may attempt to kill me in a brutal way, but as a whole, the Covenant is amazing....

  • @LilTom895 they arnt they enemy.......the have just been missled by tales of beutiy and the great jorney......the great journey is death......and the prophets were truthful....but in the end.....the arbiter whooped they monkey ass!!! agagagagagaga hahahahaaa im rick james bitch!

  • Comment removed

  • If there was music for heaven, this would be it...

  • halo 2 = best game ever made by bungie

    halo 3= best ending

    halo reach = best multiplayer

    halo = best secuel ever made on the world

    bungie = best games industries

  • halo 2 ftw!!!!!!

  • damn i loved halo CE and then when halo 2 came out that shit was the best game ever made, , but they killed it with halo 3 and reach and all this other bullshit. HALO 2 mother fuckers!!!!!

  • @shamannofthedead they killed it with halo 3? halo 3 was fucking epic

  • @StarWarsUnited123 if you like gay ass games maybe lol

  • @shamannofthedead nahhh then i would love the call of duty series but you know every halo game has a good story...and thats why i like it + the soundtracks......its overall a epic experience....i remember the first warthog run in halo:ce....and saying halo 3 is gay is more like a troll comment...looks like someone cant accept changes in video games

  • @StarWarsUnited123 nah its just gay lol

  • @shamannofthedead lol do you really think i fuckign care what you are saying? xD good joke bro, good joke bye and dont answer you fucking cunt

  • @StarWarsUnited123 nah you GAY

  • @shamannofthedead I remembered a time when gay meant happy. Then it meant Homosexual. Now it refers to epic games?

  • @shamannofthedead I fail to see how a video game can have a sexual orientation.

  • @MsSoWhat12 it dosnt but he does and hes GAY

  • @shamannofthedead Keep acting like the COD Black Cock sucking nine year old you are... btw, can you make a better comeback than "Nahh, you GAY!" because, for your information, THAT'S gay O.o

  • aw i love the little grunts this one time a green one followed me all the way to the end of the mission he did not shoot me or anything and he was still there after truths brother got killed by the flood and then later on died half way through the mission by a flood elite it was sad its like he wanted to be Spartans best friend

  • such good memories

  • @PCBHLOVER I miss them :(

  • hw much this song and hw much u paid for it

  • If I had a house I would like it looking almost like the insides of high charity with the weird white elevator gravity lift

  • This isn't peaceful, this is the music that represents the death and slaughtering of thousands of misguided soldiers in a war, it represents hopelessness and sadness, the things going through a soldier's mind as his comrades fall around him until it's just him and a few others to stand against what seemed like a unstoppable enemy, until he musters up the courage to take aim with him weapon, and shoot down every enemy within range until he runs out of ammo and is next to fall.

  • @Cha0sLord93 no need to make it sound bad he meant it sounds peaceful at night

  • @Cha0sLord93 Well maybe that's what this song means to you, but that doesn't make it right or wrong. We all interpret music in our own way. Some may interpret that this song is about the "final rest" and the peace that comes along side it. Others might view it as a solemn song about immense loss. Either way, this song is beautiful and is a pleasure to listen to as you fall asleep :)

  • @purpletravisty Yet the song plays at a part of the game where grunts and elites are being slaughtered at high charity by the brutes? Not much peace there, the context of the music and where it is played normally represents the composer's true interpretation and what he expects others to think of it. I don't see how you can see this as a peaceful piece of music, I compare it to the deaths and wounded cries of the men who face gainst all odds just to be killed, forgotten about and thats about it.

  • Halo 2 was hands down the best halo campaign experience. the story was so epic and music was amazing!

  • This is beauty to my audio receptors.

  • Music to my Ears

  • So I think Halo 2's soundtrack is beastly. I mean the story coupled with this music, i know it sounds weird but it kinda tugs at my heart :D Ahhh, Nerdgasm.....

  • "Your pal, wheres he going?"

    "Earth, to finish what was started...and this time none of you... will be left behind."

  • this song will be played in chruch tommorow for my step father funerals, and a fable song too . We loved played game since 2001 together , he died 9th june. I never forget that moments ...

  • Comment removed

  • halo=best cuz of it's sci fi. i love astronomy

  • @MajorAALAN me to, this game make me dream a lots of time, since halo.

  • How can anyone dislike this? :O

  • Dammit, I hate missing being a 10 year old, playing this game in my old dads apartment, and awwing at this beautiful music :.(

  • "The Elites are heading back to the Mausoleum, Fools! Their Arbiter can do NOTHING for them now"!

  • When I hear this, I imagine a thousand tales.

    Untold tales, that the Halo universe has spawned. One can only imagine.

    I feel fortunate to have experienced what I deem is the best game series of all time. My life feels complete. I may now die... at peace.

  • @Pseudodynamic We know you are no heretic...

  • @Pseudodynamic I only wish that I could live the tale of either the Arbiter or Master Chief... Just reading the books is like opening up a can of whoop ass... Yes, the extra large 20$ one... And then taking out anohter twenty... and then just blowing everything up... and then walking away in slo-mo... and then doing it again...

    It sounds like so much fun!

  • i was/still am obsessed with this game but i dont remember hearing this during the game, what level does it show up?
