Top Ten Video Game Songs (#8) Halo - Halo: Combat Evolved

[Jeebsterz]

I hope halo 4 is worth the hype

[gorgolyt]

Great song, poor game.

[mitch13815]

really, out of all the AMAZING songs, you pick the halo theme?

"A walk in the woods" LOOK IT UP!!!!

now THAT should be #1

[Llenlleawg]

I remember smacking down sleeping grunts to this.

Damn, the memories.

[retartedgrunt1]

1 word : epic:)

[Freakazoid511]

this is one of the most epic game songs that ever been. i totaly like halo, game and music thumbs up ^^

[SergeantNugget]

KEDNKEEIJNCJENIERFN THIS LIST SUCKS! IT'S A BUNCH OF JAP SHIT!

[2010xerxes]

@SergeantNugget STU! You don't know to appreciate good music you fag.

[SergeantNugget]

@2010xerxes Type in MoH: From Here, that good music Halo has a epic soundtrack, i like the halo reach one. BUT NOT SOME ANIME SHIT, GO AHEAD CLICK NEXT SEE WHAT ANIME SHIT THERE IS, THIS IS NOT JAP SHIT!

[TenorSaxDude09]

@SergeantNugget asian music tends to be more thematically appropriate to the setting than western music, if not better. in my opinion, you're simply a racist.

[chuckycheezy1]

So cliche, yet still so good

[MrPrototypz]

Awesome game. Halo 1 and 2 were the best ones. All the others (Halo 3, Halo Reach) are just completley awful. I dare to say that original Xbox is better than Xbox 360. Well, atleast in my opinion.

[jeppewie1206]

@MrPrototypz what? You can't be serious! How can the original halo be better than the recent ones? it's old and was created by an not as experienced bungie. People only say it's best because it's a classic. honestly, it's good, but even reach is better.

[MrPrototypz]

@jeppewie1206 I won't even bother since i saw your profile picture.

[weyandt123]

when i see halo i hear that :O

[Bweemo]

Surprised Yasunori Mitsuda didn't get on your list at all from xenogears, chrono trigger or chrono cross. Time scar was an amazing piece. Anyways definitely hard to pick from all these songs =)

[QuantumPolagnus]

@Bweemo Yasunori Mitsuda also did the soundtrack for Xenosaga: Episode I, which had some really good music, but I didn't think it quite made it to my list; I preferred Yuki Kajiura's work.

[shadeslay406]

I must say, this is a better list than any that I would have made.

[Deckles99]

I knew this would be in the top 10 its awesome

[Xaio30]

I like the first game because it can stand on its own. But are you rating the music after the game itself or just the music piece?

[QuantumPolagnus]

Truth-be-told, a little of both; although mainly as a musical piece on it's own - it is an awesome song.

[lumburgapalooza]

To me, the context of the song does add a lot to how memorable it is to me.

[jubabowling]

Anything well received by the masses will always be considered overrated or over-hyped.

People tend to forget what console shooters were like prior to halo or halo 2.  Sure they've since been outdone, but only barely, and only from building on what halo brought to console shooters in the first place.

[AislinKageno]

Working my way through your game song countdown. If Still Alive isn't at the top, so help me...I'll complain on the internet. Yeah. That'll show you. :P

[Timic83amv]

@AislinKageno overrated shitty game portal was.

[guardian3847]

@AislinKageno sorry this isnt a popularity contest. just cause a video game song game is popular doesnt its the best. tbh i didnt care for still alove :/

[jeppewie1206]

@AislinKageno it won't.. this song kicks it's ass, even through it's at 8.

[Carcharis]

The original is my favorite =)

[QuantumPolagnus]

:) Thanks for the comment.

I seem to be one of the few people who still thinks Halo: Combat Evolved is an awesome game. :(

I don't know why people seem to complain that it's "overrated" or "over-hyped" or whatever.

[Slgkh54]

@QuantumPolagnus lol the original wasnt over rated(for the most part) and the music ws still good. its just ALOT of the wrong kind of people thought it was good (over hyping fanboys) and thats what made it, i think, go down the drain. music still rocks though, and i play the original on my computer all the time though =D

[cybergeek11235]

@QuantumPolagnus - because of a VERY vocal subset of its fanclub >.>

[cabot2jville2010]

@QuantumPolagnus Halo CE could NEVER be overrated..no one even knew what it was when it came out haha, THATS how u know its not overratted because IT made the halo franchise...people fell in love with this game and the music, so they made two more, halo 2's campaign was overhyped and overrated..but its online multiplayer was the SHIT!, then halo 2 MADE halo 3's multiplayer become overhyped, thats just how it works, great games, sept for 3

[chipbuster]

@QuantumPolagnus Total necro here but...Halo was one of the most overrated games of all time. It's also one of the best games of all time. It's so darn good that when you talk about it being "overrated" it's still really really really good :D

[plasmaflori]

@QuantumPolagnus hmmmhmmm, i love halo one (or combat evolved) very much. I´m still plaing it, i think because i don´t have an other shooter :D
