Having just finished reading "Halo - The Fall of Reach" I was compelled to replay the both Halo games. Having a better understanding of the Chiefs origin and the rise of the Covenant adds so much to the whole Halo universe and I just had to play through the games again. The book is awesome by the way and highly recommended to anyone who enjoyed the games or is a fan of Halo.
Just finished "Assault on the control room" last night and I cant quite believe that after so many years and countless other FPS titles there is nothing that can touch the sheer adrenaline this and "The Silent Cartographer" create... the music, the enemies, the setting, the action, its an absolutely perfect blend of all the right things and my understanding of the Chiefs history just adds so much more it. I am appreciating things so much more and have got The Chiefs array of moves and weapons down to a T, from weapon reload timings to the pattern for taking out specific squads of Covenant, I have the fella moving the way he should and am getting so much more out of the game for it. Didnt really finish the game properly the first time so am really looking forward to getting the full story at the end this time. Everything about this game was so far ahead of its time all those years ago and the amount of enjoyment I am getting out of playing through it again is insane.
Plan is to finish Halo, read "Halo - First Strike" which is set between Halo 1 and 2 then play through Halo 2. I am loving every single little detail in Halo again and it is only going to get better as I read the next book and play Halo 2.
I feel now I didnt appreciate this game as much as I should have on first play and for that Bungie I apologise... the message you tried to get through to me all those years ago has finally hit home... Halo is legendary, The Chief is a God and I am now yours to command... so hurry up and get Halo 3 on the shelves so we can bring this party to a conclusion
cause I dread to think how I will feel when I get to the end of this amazing ride that the books and games are taking me on.
So, if you want to appreciate these games more than you have doen already get into these 2 books and read and play the games following the timeline of The Cheif... it will blow you away!!
Anyone else on the same journey as me??
