A Completely Accurate Summary of Halo 2 

To be fair, I don't think a standard life pod can hold a Spartan still during a crash

@@JJJBunney001 I think that’s because he IS the pod, as shown at the start of halo 3

For a brick, he pinballed pretty good!

Yes lmao I waiting for someone to say that

I hope this is canon

Hahah I was confused at the cutscene cause I thought that was the only way it plays out. Have only done Halo 2 once on Legendary back when it came out

"So buck up boy! Your one very lucky marine"

Every game he’s in he has adjusted dialogue. His first scene and speech on halo 1, tbis in halo 2, and his conversation to chief in the beginning of halo 3

Yeah they've always done that, he's supposed to be the hype man. His speeches are supposed to make you feel like King Big-Dick

My favorite is when he says "the chief is gonna hop in this tank, roll down that bridge, and blow up any inhuman son of a bitch dumb enough to get between him and the prophet of regret"

For a pretty brick, he flew good

Brick a good, he pretty for flew

For a pretty good flew he brick

For a pretty good brick he flew

Chief, get up. Gear-inside

It's useless to H2 AND H5! :D

Still, I think it's a cool cutscene. "In time... friend." "A modicum of respect."

@@RosheenQuynh That's because Keith David is a fucking treasure.

@@jacobrobinson787 As a major fan of Halo 2 and Gargoyles, I wholeheartedly agree! He's *chef's kiss*!

I mean it’s supposed to be him remembering how they meant in Halo 2, I like the 343 games so that’s just my opinion

I thought about it

I think he was in some placeholder dialogue they had for the actual game.

@mjkalasky2 Reminds me of how Sektor and Cyrax from Mortal Kombat 3 were called Ketchup and Mustard during development.

@@jdps7754 "they have to kill all veagans"

This unfortunately happens in every single game in the original trilogy...especially Halo 3.

It’s really the luck of the draw. I gave up on Legendary because the game refused to give me a checkpoint during the Regret boss fight, and I just couldn’t beat that part in one go.

@@theicemanleaveth it gave us a Checkpoint which luckily put us in a position to have atleast one free bee phase It took us 47 mins to punch him 5 times

Me with halo ce

@@theicemanleaveth This happened to me and it was sooo frickin annoying

Actually the most underrated off handed comment in this whole video

I never thought of it like that before

I winced OMGS poor Jorge

It's okay he woke up in Call of Duty Vanguard having been blasted back in time. Probably a terrible place to find himself.

Sarge:"will you settle a bet for me does that look like some kind of big cat to you"

4:20 Bow chika bow wow

What in Sam Hell is a puma?

@@orionhunter3516 I'm telling you, it's a big cat!

What about that, Griff? Chupa-thingy. I like it, it's for a ring to it!

NOBODY EXPECTS THE SPANISH INQUI-wait no that's not right

Just like no one expects The Reds in their Puma.

You can't call yourself a Halo fan without referencing the series the kept it relevant in the down times between games.

@@jacobrobinson787 Yes you can, no reason to gatekeep

honestly, it's like not quoting an abridged series when talking about an anime.

The original plot for H2 was that Miranda Keyes was going to betray Chief and work with the prophets because she was still mad about the whole skull punch thing.

@@DeltaDanner Really? Damn

@@DeltaDanner I'ma be real, anyone who works with the prophets after 30 years of genocide isn't in the UNSC. I'd believe it if she was a innie though

@@DeltaDanner That's super dumb though.

Keyes was dead at that point. His mind gave way to the protogravemind eating away at his psyche and died.

I just got him in an infinite loop of dual needler supercombines until the game decided he had had enough

I just rammed a banshee in the boss room and stayed out of reach bombing and shooting him until cutscene happened

@@Separikakku hahah same had to bash the wings off just to squeeze it around the skucked room. few time them brutes with bruteshots would kill my all ready banged up banshee

It's not a nightmare. It's Legendary. It's not supposed to be easy. It's supposed to be "legendarily" difficult, and it's really not even that. It requires patience and persistence. Even if you choose to quit for a while, the worst case is you go back to the beginning of whatever level you're on. I have a feeling you guys complaining about Legendary H2 would try to self-delete if you actually played tough games from the 1980s and early 1990s. Beating SMB (no save states) is tougher. AVGN isn't eviscerating all those older games just for the show. They are legitimately difficult.

​@@encycl07pedia-halo legendary 2 i more AHHH than supposed to. The other games were tough but fair in legendary (ce, 3, and odst). 2 makes you a weak piece of sh@t, enemies shoot FASTER than you, sniper jackals have pinpoint accuracy with jedi reflexes, vehicles are weaker by your mere presense, wome flood have goddam energy shields, and only snipers n br are reliable weapons.

Particularly fitting considering the "smoothest voice of any elite" belongs to Commander Acastus Kolya correction: "Shipmaster Honeyvoice"

The actor who played Kolya/aka stargate's Hans Gruber (except he doesn't die in his first appearance), is a VA in halo? Awesome!

@@jayburn00 2004 was a good year

Ikr? It caught me off guard

Proof that Heroic is canon: he didn't die.

"balanced and challenging" cue sniper jackals on legendary, heretic leader bossfight, and 343 big monkey bossfight.

I was looking for this comment :)

I haven't finished all the games yet, but out of the original trilogy this one is my favorite, even if it didn't end how I wished it would

From big ship thats gonna f the whole covenant race to chief being like "oh shit i slipped and fell on reach" oh well.

Tbh halo 2 is my least favorite campaign in terms of gameplay The vehicle sections are never long nor very enjoyable as the tank is slow as fuck and every vehicle looks like crap after looking at it the wrong way

I personally like it because that was the first halo i got introduced to.

@@alexthegreat3078 same for me But I played more of reach than 2

H2bis the only LASO that I rage quit multiple times. It took me like a week to push through

Im glad they made 3 instead of just 2. If onyl it ended after reach

A glassing beam had never been visualized before halo 2 So they used purple

@@luigimrlgaming9484 thanks.

Wow.* recapped* minutes.*

The fuel phantom💀

I'm sure. Halo 2 Legendary acts like the Iron skull is on by default (and we checked- this is the intended behavior, even from 04 H2)

@@Williaso Well that's dumb

@@Enderguy059 I KNOW! It's what makes H2 legendary co op so much more miserable compared to the rest of the games

@@Enderguy059 you've obviously never played H2 Legendary Co Op. Don't bother. It's not any easier than Solo and neither are fun.

I mean, he's practically a death row prisoner at that point. Might as well go all out if your death seems certain.

This is a great point

I'm ... I'm terribly sorry for breaking that to you but... you can do the time attack challenges on Easy. I feel your pain, even on Easy I barely got through the level in time.

Your first comment is not correct, it was always a wire, never a tentacle of the Gravemind's.

That explains why the last time I played that level I finished the boss fight in seconds! I didn't know the brute plasmas did that, I just grabbed one cuz I was out of ammo on my beam rifle and really wanted to be done and that's exactly what happened. I kept blasting him with the brute plasma and the allies sliced him to ribbons with their energy swords. 20 seconds tops.

Bet it cost, idk, 10, 10-15, 20, 25 dollars

How can that top the whole "Giving the Covenant back their bomb.." sequence.

@me

@@Blama_ ok

Lol definitely the best story but the gameplay is still kind of whacked up but somehow it’s still fun to play on legendary because Of all the really good gameplay areas, so ye it’s perfect the only problem is things like sniper jackals wich I actually think are fine and so is everything else but then it becomes not fine when you die by them and halo 2 checkpoints sucks. So ye the only problem in halo two is the checkpoints and it’s not long enough, other than that it’s perfect and even has aniversry.

@@aleborke5420 Sniper Jackals are just a problem in general, they shoot at you from even farther away in Halo 3 than 2

@@jetthejudgehalo three sniper jackals are totally fine even if they have far range, but they don’t spawn in big groups besides on that first mission wich is closer quarters and not open space so there is cover, and they don’t ya ce ungodly aim. I agree that they are hard but not unreasonably, where as in halo 2 they are unpredictable and shoot you while it looks like they are looking to the side , and they have ungodly aim so they are likely to hit you at the first shot making you more likely to have to memorize the spawns, where as in halo three they aimed to make each encounter different every play through wich they did well at. So ye they are hard but I like that and they implemented it well. But Though I am ok with the halo two sniper jackals I now agree they could be better and they are a big error in halo 2. Also in halo infinite I think it would be AWSOME If halo infinite sniper jackals were mini boss fights like hunters I mean imagine you hear a loud sharp piercing sound and the wall besides you spits out a cloud of debris now that the sniper should be portrayed as a weapon as powerful as it is. So once that shot misses every time they will only spawn when cover is near it if your playing a more linear area than there will always be cover, so with your weapons you could either kill the sniper jackal and take the sniper, wich I think should be a power weapon that will be much more useful than the other games but if you don’t have the right weapons or the guts to kill it you could run past them. I think the encounter itself will be the most important thing, where they will move around and spawn in trees and rooftops, but every once and a while they could shoot randomly, get closer to you, farther away from you and then when they are at low health they will pop out deplorable cover which will give away their spot because the whole time they will be camouflaging with only their headsets glow to give you a small indicator to where they are.

Hol up

When you read it the first time its ok, but the more you look at it, the worse it gets

And gets stopped by a fucking jackal sniper of all things

Trust me, you won't learn anything from me

He also didn’t glitch the banshee into the final boss room to make it cakewalk either

It's a skull in Halo 2 as well, it's just PERMANENT on Legendary
