Anyone Can Sing the Halo Theme Underground. And Sing it Damn Well.

Welshman Jonny Mason was exploring some abandoned oil chambers with pals when one of them thought, yes, these acoustics are just perfect for a rendition of the Halo theme.

And what do you know. They totally were.

That was awesome. lol While I don't personally like Halo the game, I LOVE the theme song to Halo. It's cool as hell. I've always thought so.

ChiVoLok04485d ago

Hilarious. It sounded so good I was expecting to hear the next part of the song where the action music starts lol.

spicelicka4485d ago

damn that's crazy, halo has the greatest music ever

SignifiedSix4485d ago

Don't see how someone could disagree with that. Some of the music on that game gives you goosebumps. Just like that gave me goosebumps. :O
My step-dad hates the game, but he loves the music. Lol.

Hicken4485d ago

I could disagree after listening to a few FF soundtracks, or Castlevania:SotN, or Nier, or Fragile Dreams: Farewell Ruins of the Moon (bought this game BECAUSE of the soundtrack).

Yeah, Halo has some pretty good music, but saying it's the greatest ever is stretching it.

I didn't hit disagree, by the way. Just making a case for how someone COULD.

The importance of audio: How music makes games better

How do composers make the iconic music tracks from games that we love? And just what makes them so memorable?

Well, 4-Infinite dropped the ball massively so don't worry.

Sgt_Slaughter64d ago (Edited 64d ago )

Not really. 4, 5, MCC, and Infinite are only remembered for their shortcomings and failures when the franchise was purely known for being a system seller and an all-time great. There's a reason 1, 2, 3, and Reach are looked back on fondly, and it's not because of nostalgia.

FinalFantasyFanatic64d ago

I don't know of anyone that speaks fondly of the later Halo games, I would like to play 5, but I know it's not good, and I'm just waiting on Infinite to hit my strike price. I played MCC a lot later after it came out, so must of those bugs/issues were gone by the time I played it.

To say it dropped the massively is just not true. Many in the community hold H5 as the best mp mechanics in the entire series and say its what 4 should've been. Its campaign was trash but the MP is Fantastic and many faces of the community still play today and it only made 500mill in the matter of months but sure it dropped the ball massively. 4 was hated due to all the changes at once. And CoD like feature and rightful get hate but it's campaign story was liked by a majority of ppl. 343 hasn't nailed ot 100% but they get 1 thing perfect but F up in other places. Infinite had a good campaign and design but the story was a mess. The MP improves upon what Halo 3 was and is what many ppl wanted to go back to but it lacked content severely. So massively aint the word. Dropping the ball massively is when it's pure trash and unplay/unenjoyable. Most ppl blind by nostalgia so soon as 1 thing aint the same its hated cause Halo set the bar so high
FYI reach was not that good.

Dead IP, time to invent something new.

kaos8964d ago

Maybe they can have ID or one of the COD studios help 343 with this series.

Halo-Pop like Gears Pop. Halo bowling. Halo Cooking Mama. There’s a reason why you won’t hear about them
