Halo: Combat Evolved OST - Opening Suite

[acisfd]

this song brings back good memories and sad memories

[915headbanger1992]

1:29 - 3:35 favorite part :) when i listen to it, it makes me feel like nothing can bother me, like im alone in space and waiting for something. except idk what.... maybe halo 4 lol

[wattosacrim]

@915headbanger1992 mine too :D

[NYG5]

sounds like a doomed voyage

[DREWNG09]

i feel like im drifting in space somewhere

[Kapwnage0]

1 CoD player dislikes this.

[bixanajoana]

WHO IS THE 1 FUCKER?

[Naamatita]

1:30 - "All I need to know, Cortana, is did we lose them?"

"I think we both know the answer to that."

[oddyslay]

I want to hire an orchestra and a group of monks and have them play this as I unpack my Halo Anniversary.

[thebttfchannel]

0:57 ancient monk Translation: GET YOUR ASS READY FOR TEN YEARS OF DESTROYING ANTI SON OF A BITCH MACHINES!

[Manguypersonthing1]

This song suite gives me a vivid perspective of the forerunners:A meak but intelligent civilization that was the most advanced in the galaxy,yet it also tells a violent story between the Forerunners and Precursors.When the precusor species was almost entirely destroyed,they made the flood:their violent,hateful revenge.

[Jonny77783]

I`m going to kill the person who dislike it

[ThtsWatSheSaid19993]

1 dislike? I need a weapon!

[Edude117]

0:14 - 0:40 I was thinking Covenant Dance the WHOLE time!

[The343freak]

1:27 on wards is the best part. It shows the utter feeling of helplessness of those on board the Pillar of Autumn, thinking that they would be brutally exterminated by the Covenant, thinking that Mankind was doomed.

[SpartanLegion300]

@The343freak comment streaks FTW!!

[zacher51]

my house number is 17 so i got a stick and carved it to look like a 1 and taped it on

[troopersarsan]

what if halo 4 came out on the time of 1:17 pm

[fableofhalo]

@troopersarsan or AM.....DUUUUUUUUUDE I'd like that, tradition ftw

[The343freak]

@troopersarsan Then it would be AWESOME.

[acisfd]

@troopersarsan what if halo came out on the 11th of July

[firehawk0]

the best game ever made by the hands of man

[mrhalo635]

1 grunt was killed on the pillar of autuam

[The343freak]

@mrhalo635 No, actually many grunts were mowed down by the Chief.

[FoxyUkeFox]

@The343freak He was talking about the 1 dislike, lol.

[7heAre7s]

Watching this to get in the mood for Halo: Anniversary!

[MysticShadowofDeath]

@7heAre7s

HELL YAH!!!

[that1dude0092]

1:29 "Cortana all i need to know is did we lose them?" "I think we both know the answer to that..." "*sigh* we made a blind jump how did they..." "get here first, the covenants has always been faster as for tracking us all the way from Reach my lightspeed maneuvering were limited" "we were running dark" "yes" "until we decelerated, no one could have missed the hole we tore in sub-space" "they were waiting for us on the far side of the planet" "so were do we stand"

[BrightFilms117]

Can I just settle this, Halo Combat Evolved was released before Xbox Live was ready so it was stuck with LAN. XBL came out a few months later and the best game for it at the time was Call of Duty 2, but a few years later Halo 2 was released and obliterated everything going on to being the most played game on XBL,

[Sherwan61]

1 people is blind and missed like button ;(

[Gallifrey103]

I'd laugh if there were transcribe audio on this...

[muso123456]

0:15 makes me jizz every time i hear it is just superb

[dowww21]

@muso123456 man shut the hell up with that "jizz" shit man...yea its awsome music i agree but srsly

[calebaren]

greatest music editing ever.

[Donkulatedfish]

this games soundtrack should go down in video game music history!

[GeneD0ta]

The one who disliked never finished Halo:CE poor soul....

[Donkulatedfish]

@GeneD0ta lol

[LAMEIRAS360]

Brilliant! I wish Reach´s OST was half as good.

[MrSlippy007]

This game had the best story in the whole world. This game created xbox live, a halo timeline, better AI's, difficulty, but best of all...the music that matched the level that you were in whether you were lost, surrounded by aliens, or just having a good time it had a great impact on video games. Halo 2 couldnt be compared, halo 3 couldnt be compared, and halo reach couldnt be compared.

[Donkulatedfish]

@MrSlippy007 this game is good but the other halos are just as good since they all sort of link in one general story

[windsheildwiper]

@MrSlippy007 wow you retard.one of your praises was that it created the halo timeline but apparantly the rest of the games and timeline cant be compared.and halo 2 (the game that cant be compared)put xbox live on the map not halo

[MrSlippy007]

@windsheildwiper If i do recall...xbox live was encouraged by halo 1. Halo 2 just did nothing but added fans to the halo series which boosted the amount of playing on the xbox. Everything has a beginning right? Well halo was the first game so technically, for your retarded logic, it did start the timeline just in a different special place. Plus the music is fkin great...halo 2's music cant be compared.

[windsheildwiper]

@MrSlippy007 if i do recall halo came out after xbox live so it couldnt have encouraged it and how can halo 2 soundtrack not be compared.its basically halo 1s but with even more music some even more epic than this so your logic is retarded.and what different special place did it start a timeline ?! the game timeline is halo 1 then 2 then odst then 3 and thats the timeline that you said halo created we both can agree on that so what special place did it start

[MrSlippy007]

@windsheildwiper Back then who played xbox live? I dont think people even heard of xbox live until halo came out. Halo 2 was just a peace of crap cause its microsoft trying to rush the producers into making a game instead making a break and such vacation. Every game has an original right. Ive never heard a game go backwards example(these games dont exist) regid 5, regid 4, regid forever, regid 3, regid 2, regid worlds. Which regid came first in timeline? Im sure you would pick regid 5.

[windsheildwiper]

@MrSlippy007 wow you fucking idiot i didnt say the timeline is backwards i said stop praising the timeline it created if you only thing about it you like is the first and guess what microsoft didnt push them bungie wanted to make the next one just like all the games they made and why would people know about xbox live because of halo if halo coudnt even support xbox live.thats right halo ce had no xbox live halo 2 did and remained the most played xbox live game til 2 years later when gow came out

[MrSlippy007]

@windsheildwiper Well balls to you. I dont give a shit about xbox live anyways. Plus wikipedia and documentaries would help you understand about xbox live and the connection to halo.

[hornetsFAN100]

1 person is going to hell for not having a Halo...

[HardikG121]

sounds a bit like gregorian chant

[danielnorw]

Hahahahahahah.ahah. 1 dislike xD

[eric5661]

beginning of the beginning. taken 3 years for a dislike prolly

[kaan9072]

This song is the beginning of a VERY beatiful and great advanture. I will miss Halo. I will never forget Halo till I die :D

[StrikerSniper77]

The greatest piece of video game music I've ever heard. It gives me goosebumps every time I listen to it.

[HomicidalWhales]

1 person's computer failed at opening Halo: CE right from the beginning

[MnMLPFM]

ahh good times, good times.

[7heAre7s]

When I found out who ruined the 117 likes...

No matter. My house number is 117 :P

[dowww21]

@7heAre7s same....

[TheSupermoses007]

@7heAre7s Ha, Mines "343"

[pjpeppers]

@7heAre7s my school room number is 117

[MysticShadowofDeath]

@7heAre7s

I hate you just because your house number is 117.

[7heAre7s]

@MysticShadowofDeath :)

[violet1197]

@7heAre7s on the end of my zip code is 117

[Derathir]

Can't beat the monk chant.

[OverlordMD]

THUMBS UP FOR 117 LIKES!!

[hal0dude7]

343 productions should remake Halo: Combat Evolved.

[darkera14]

@hal0dude7 Theres a rumor that they will.

[deakon452876]

@hal0dude7 ?? 343, anyways the game itself is pretty good. all they need to do is add an xbox live feature to the game and im sure thousands of people will immediatly start to play it. they made this for PC, which you may already know, but they only had servers which you would join. but what if they did the same for halo 1 xbox live. it would be awesame. and they could add the new maps they had added to the PC to halo 1 for xbox. so fun. but i would understand it would need awesame graphics to.

[chille1964]

@hal0dude7 i heard its supposed to be released in november

[iTzJustProof]

Best and most epic song in the world!

[7heAre7s]

I play CE on my PC with the lowest settings possible, and it is still awesome.

[557011]

@HGunner70 and not the chessy ones thats to days games i mean ever since they mad halo 2 it wasnt best game id hoped for

[1337million]

I remember when halo 1 was new :) To me it seemed REALLY realistic! Those were the best times of my life :D

[graveseller1]

prepare to belive, for a hero will rise. To the many that he defends, He is known as a hero. To the many that he fights, he is known as a demon. But known too very few, he is known as John. But too all that have etheir fought with him, or aganst him he is known as SPARTAN-117 a.k.a. The Master Chief. Prepare too belive, prepare to fight.

[haycalon]

So much better without the electric guitar...

[outragedcobra]

Tear =,(

[dragonx1211]

fuckign cock of doody fan

[KingRaven101]

The Halo Series... my favourite and, in my opinion, the best series of games ever made. The Xbox classics version of Halo CE was the first game I ever got for my xbox, back when I got the original years ago, and I've still got it and play it regularly.

Hats off to Bungie for making the greatest shooters ever.

[cameronm96]

@KingRaven101 Agreed. :)

[tacospartan]

played this game on the Mac, i'm seriously thinking about getting for my 360. it'd be cool to play the campaign after finishing Halo Reach

[ihateworldofwarcrap]

@tacospartan You are so lucky you havent beat halo 1 campaign yet.. I'd love to play reach first off then go thru 1,2 and 3. I just wish i could whipe all the memory of these games out of my head so i can play them as new!

[tacospartan]

no, i said i PLAYED this game on the mac. But i just wanna get it on the 360 for some reason. It might provide a different experience. I could also do some co-op stuff.

[TaliPani]

@ihateworldofwarcrap

sign

[TharTassakahn]

and so it ends how it began

[jarika123]

@HGunner70 i know right, i might download halo 1 for 1200 ms points

[ihateworldofwarcrap]

@jarika123 worth it!

[Blitzwing989]

good ol days, playing halo, waiting for my bro to get out that bathroom to play slayer, hearing this song.....memories

[ponti117]

I kinda like first Halo the best.

[Barock3]

@ponti117 Yeah, but Halo 3 got a realy nice supprice if you finish it on legendary. i made it on legend about 2-3 moths after i finished it on Heroic. Damn what a suprice. Gotta love Halo ^^

[Szellerie]

@ponti117 You are not alone.

[ponti117]

@Szellerie Im glad to hear that.

[OutlawDave2009]

a person dislikes this?! who ever was has no heart and life.

[7heAre7s]

@OutlawDave2009 Whom of which deserves to be glassed.

[Big12189]

Where are you, Chief? I hope they'll revisit you someday.

I miss you.

[Rachamacha]

@Big12189 I ask myself that question every time I see Halo... Reach is all well and good, but Master Chief was one of the things that made Halo special...

[shaggyrugby]

Good memories, me, my brother, loft, blow-up sofa, halo and a continuous loop of nickleback's silver side up......... spent ages with that lol

[BriJohCur]

This isssss sssoooo fucckinng epppiicc ittt sennds chiills upp my spiiiiiiiiiiiiiinnnnnnnneeeee.

[ERICK911S]

@HGunner70 yup...true that

[socamaster23]

I always thought it was a Choral group, actually its Gregorian Chanting... Brings out the religious aspects of the Halo franchise, yes?

[MoshPitPanda326]

Sucks people who never played halo 1 but have played halo 3. Halo reach cannot remake the halo 1 fill, if they do I might consider geting a 360.

[TharTassakahn]

It is strange that the Forerunners contained the parasite on the very rings meant to purge the galaxy of them.

[novadude987]

@TharTassakahn They wanted them to be the closest living creature to the rings once they 'fire' I guess. Makes sense, right?

[lolturtle13]

@TharTassakahn

Lol yea. You would have thought they would have purged their research facilities before firing the rings O.o

[loompf]

@TharTassakahn ironic yes?

[TBEClanMovies]

@loompf How is it ironic ?

[loompf]

@TBEClanMovies its ironic that they are living on the very thing trying to kill them.

[THERANDOMISER100]

i needed my halo fix seen as my XBOX broke LOL XD

[baryon15]

0:40

ftw

[baryon15]

0:40

[CasualGamerDude]

too,much,nostalgia...

[m82sniper99]

Divine.

[lollp33]

lolz halo 3s ending is practically teh same... but sadly johnson died... i can still hear his voice saying "suck it up marine! we gotta give them all we got!" while at the same time as running into a gold elite with a sword...

[NoahBlondheim]

@lollp33 yah good times

[nara1777]

ohh man i´m a girl but i realy love halo best game ever!!

[violet1197]

@nara1777 awsome same here halo rules

[spartanChief99]

yeap the pure essence of halo the song that identifficates the game and make us remember it as one of the best game of always

[twin10broter]

@HGunner70 yeah this is brings me back to halo. since my xbox died

[Sparkymarshall]

@twin10broter wish him luck in heavan,i love you mr xbox!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[Godsmackrules572]

i remember this at the end of halo.. brings back amazing memories :) i was disapointed in the halo 3 campain though...

[GeorgeX01]

@Godsmackrules572 yeah... it felt kinda short...

[disk3001]

the OST of halo is the one of the main reason why I still replay the original single player campine every few years!

the run against time at the end with the halo theme still gives me chills down my spine every time I play it!( halo 3's end chase was also realy great,but as they say:"you just cant beat the original!")

[anonforuz]

@disk3001 The original's Claustrophobic feel, driving through the ship, made it tense. had to plan as you went.

[windsheildwiper]

@disk3001 what is ost? also your right all of the halos are awesome but i have to disagree i liked the ending to halo 3 better than the 1st because it was more challenging

[oMeatball]

ORIGINAL SOUNDTRACK

[GeorgeX01]

@windsheildwiper OST stands for Original SoundTrack.....

[Darth305]

Cortana all I need to know is did we lose them?

[ponchoyo]

i think we both know the answer

[joun1nkakash1]

"I think we both know the answer to that one"

[DrPepperAndSteak]

Halo's music shits all over Mass Effect's music, and that pretty much an accepted fact, Marty O' Donnel even bet Hanz Zimmer (Who did the awesome Crimson Tide theme) at the VGA's. Not because Mass Effect's music is bad, its up there with the best but Halo, 4 games and the music is still awesome and progressive.

Super Castlevania 4 has awesome music aswell, even if it is from the early '90's.

[HardcoreFlea]

@DrPepperAndSteak Although I love Halo's soundtrack, I disagree, Mass Effect and it's sequel's soundtrack is overall a lot better. I have them both on my iPod and for example, the song during the battle at the end of ME1 is possibly one of the greatest tracks i've heard in any game ever.

[manselNr1]

the soundtrack is making the game the best of the best :X:X:X::X

[SanDisk4GB4]

Halo has the best music in a video game.

[QuarantaSette47]

I disagree, Mass Effect destroys all.

it's still among the top though

[Bladethepokefreak]

But the Halo songs are more memorable.

[Bladethepokefreak]

When I bought the 360, I was a playstation guy, So I had never touched a Halo game. After finishing Halo 3, I didn't get the story, so I went out and bought CE and 2. I started up CE, saw the graphics and though "this is gonna suck"...boy was I wrong. Halo CE - Miles better than Halo 3.

[Lightingbolt008]

true, but i did enjoy playing through the campaign in halo 3 aswell as halo: CE. I just loved how the story unfolds in Halo 1 better. Much like a movie would..

[stormchaser34869]

read the halo books too, they really helped me understand the story line

[Bladethepokefreak]

I've read the first one (Fall of Reach). One of the best books I've read!

[Warcraft7777]

Too bad that Bungie didn't make a game out of Fall of Reach, instead, they made Halo: Combat Evolved, the second book in the series.

[TheMajor55]

@Warcraft7777 ehhh!!! they are making a game, Halo: Fall of Reach and the beta is live right now. Im dieing to play the actual campaign for the game

[jhurondude4375]

@TheMajor55 no, it's just called Halo:Reach

[stormchaser34869]

the game doesn't follow the book

[Robertskull9]

@stormchaser34869 the books are a prequel

[extinction208]

@Warcraft7777 It's called Halo: Reach. It's being released September 14, 2010 and it follows Noble Team, a 6 man SPARTAN-III squad stationed on Reach and called to action against the Covenant invasion. Nothing much more is known about the campaign except Bungie says that they are taking elements from all the Halo campaigns, mainly Halo: Combat Evolved and Halo 3: ODST, and implementing them into Reach. The story is mysterious for now except for the phrase "From the beginning, you know the end".

[TBEClanMovies]

@extinction208 Just so you know, Jorge-052 is a SPARTAN II....

[loompf]

@TBEClanMovies that must be why he can run at fast speeds even though carrying heavy gear. no?

[1993DJC]

@TBEClanMovies yeah, and his armour looks the most awesome :D

[TheMajor55]

@Bladethepokefreak by far, that book was so damn tight, i just love learning the past of the Chief and how he was raised to be a spartan. he went through hell and then the covenant invaded, great book

[Barock3]

@Bladethepokefreak lucky you. they don't sell the Halo books in sweden...

[Barock3]

@Bladethepokefreak Yeah, but do you know in what order the books where published?

[masterbeef792]

@Bladethepokefreak the first one is contact harvest

[AlexLong1000]

@masterbeef792 ...no it's not.

[xXBRSAXx]

@Bladethepokefreak i know right!

[TcTAvenger]

the graphics were fine to me i guess i was blinded by the awesome story line and tomorrow ODST comes out for me so they made it pretty far

[Guigui287]

I agree with you Tomarathon, the first opus is probably the best one that you can find ... actually?

[LynXLuvBCompleX]

Totally agree! And the story :)<3<3

[Tomarathon]

Halo 1 might have sucky graphics by now, but in my opinion it's still the best of the trilogy. Such awesome music.

[masterpiraka]

Well... The metal in Halo 1 acually looked like metal :/

[Tomarathon]

True, especially the part in the level The Silent Cartographer when you have to return to the surface... sweet :D

[tybinks96]

i love the part 0:16 to 0:40

[lucklyclover58]

good times i think this was the best game in the world so fun this game was. the new ones r not the same

[XxHarukaYokotoxX89]

this is the main menu music whohoo I love it

[SnowKid32]

What's this kind of music called?

[drgnearth]

The soundtrack features a wide range of sounds, O'Donnell described it as, "Gregorian chant, string orchestra, percussion and just a bit of a 'Qawwali voice'". from wikipedia.

[SnowKid32]

KK, thanks.

[JonathonRedley]

The chanting is called Gregorian Chant.

[SnowKid32]

Thanks!

[Toddzilla1337]

The only good days of Halo. Had some fun with 3. But only played for like 1.5 months before moving on to COD4.

[arbiterjohn1171]

the best halos are:

1st-halo ce

2nd-halo 2

3rd-ODST

4th-halo 3

5th-halo wars

[stormchaser34869]

ya, no shit, those are ALL the halo games

[arbiterjohn1171]

@stormchaser34869 sorry,i mean,that is the order

[ponchoyo]

@stormchaser34869

i fucken lold XD

[stormchaser34869]

what?

[Boxrag]

This brings me back...

[kaks20045]

Best Theme Eva in halo series

They nee
