In Response To: What is your favorite "Waiting for Halo" memory? (Lophan)

: Something that was mentioned in this post made me think this would be a
: good thread (especially with all of the new blood on the boards).

: What is your favorite "Waiting for Halo" memory?

: As the original post comments, we have certainly come a long way from the
: initial speculation about the "Secret Project" after Myth (The
: "BLAM!" days). Various E3s, announcements, the Buyout... it's
: been a long road that's (seeming to be) coming to an end in less than a
: month.

: So... whaddya got?

: -Loph
: lophan@bungie.org

: When Halo was announced, I had just met my new girlfriend. Now, she's my
: WIFE! (GAH!)

Better then that ,Ill tell you all about my Halo experiences(resumed of corse)

Dec.99: I bought this magazine (BGamer) that had this little description and a screenshot about Halo(love at first site)I imediatly went tell my Brother about its great features,(as always he dident gave a shit).

A couple of months later,the same mag had a full preview of Halo,lots of screenshots.I could not bealieve that a game like that could possible be.
It was perfect ,every thing I always wanted In a game was there,Jeeps ,spaceships ,lots of kms to explore,hoovers, you name it!
but a certain thing bothered me, "Third person shooter"
Of course the game couldnīt be "perfect",but that would be asking to much.
Oh!...it also mentioned a release date ,25 of april 2000(how Ironic)

And so I waited(like the jerkass I was)
at last 25 of april and...Nothing!
That was about the time I got my Cable connection(sweet!)
I had almoust fergoten about Halo untill the day I typed halo in the serch box of Yahoo!.

The first halo site I ever saw was Halo.central, from a link there I directed myself to the official halo site.Oh the humanity!I couldnīt stand on my knees right ,it was too much for a mortal soul to bare.
From that site I clicked on the first link from the fanpages menu, and I find
(yes you know it) HALO dot BUNGIE dot ORG.little did I knew ,that I whould be spending the rest of my life in there(here, whatever).
From that moment on ,I found out everything there was to know about Bungie and Halo.I went all the way back, from Gnop, to Marathon ,Oni, everything.
I learned about Jason and the gang ,I descovered that the developers of the game actualy talked to the fans(thanx Matt)and read our opinions on the forums.
I started hanging out on the forum with the name Diogo Barbosa(my real name).
I met all you guys ,and toghether we lived many advebtures.
The buyout,X-box,all the changes,E3 2000, E3 2001,gamestock,Fps change(I was very happy with this choice)And many other things I dont remeber.

What will be of my life after Halo is released?
Time will tell,soner or later ,time will tell...
