The contrast between Bungie then and generic game designers now is insane. They refer to Halo 2, arguably my favourite game of all time as 'some stupid video game' where designers these days will refer to whatever average experience they have made as being 'the most incredible gaming experience to date'. The humility from Bungie is incredible.

They openly admit to Halo 2 being a failure to them, the absolute development hell this game suffered is a heartbreaking story of a bunch of passionate developers and creators having to work every hour of every day to come as close to their vision that they knew was simply not possible, even making their own personal hygiene suffer because they had to get the game finished.
I've heard Halo 2 called "The greatest failure to ever succeed."
If it's any consolation to Ex-Bungie, Halo 2 is genuinely one of my most cherished and favorite games ever made, I remember all the way back in 2004 on Christmas, opening my present to see that iconic image of Master Chief holding 2 SMGs, it didn't take long for me to skyrocket to my Xbox and put that son of a bitch in.
It was an unforgettable experience that I played again and again, it took everything that made the first game great and expanded on it, the story and cinematic cut scenes are engraved into my skull, the 30 seconds of fun they nailed and of course the Arbiter reveal blew my mind, to actually get to play as an Elite and see the other side of the War was absolutely incredible.
I'd love to experience Halo 2 for the first time again but that's just not possible, but it'll always be up there as my favorite Halo game and one of my most favorite games ever made.
Thank you for the memories Bungie, I miss you guys so much.

17:03 I'm not going to lie, I cried.
The memories Halo created for me as a kid, the hours of gameplay coming home and shutting out life.
I can't begin to explain how much this game company changed my life.
I can't believe Joseph And Marty are gone.
Bungie will never be the same.

I had the disc this came on for 3 years before I popped it in to see what it was. As a kid, I just asked my parents to buy me Halo2 and they got the collector's edition without realizing it was anything special.
I wish more games had BTS documentaries in their special editions. This stuff was great.

"Halo one was a pretty good game." That is one of the greatest understatements of all time.
