You're welcome, it's an absolute honor. 🫡
Thanks as well big guy
Right when I finished MCC too, thank you so much!
Steve Downes only other Voice acting role is Star Lord in The Avengers: Earths Mightiest Heroes show
Forgot the Prophet of Truth boss fight
If it takes us 5 and a half hours just to watch this, I can't image how many hours it took to put it together
I don't even remember so many hours spent
Probably like 1 and a half
Right on the money @@EA_SP0RTCENTER
Thank you for your dedication to halo 🙃👋🏻
How many years you mean😂😂
"Sir, Curity Camera" killed me unexpectedly as I work as a Security Officer.
Made me chuckle too.
Made sure to hit that 10 min mark huh?
Right?? Such a money grab
The fact that he did this all on a btb map while wearing spartan equipment is insane. Seriously, this is insane!!
5:10:57 this hit so hard, I’ve had multiple nightmares about the flood invading earth but never thought about anyone else having similar nightmares. Genuinely terrifies me
Hahaha my cousin had nightmares about them when we were kids, he wasn’t allowed to play Halo after that. Funny as it never really disturbed me until I got older and understood what they truly were
@@ryanzaman6592 Does make you rethink everything doesn't it?
Even now the flood are not something to be taken lightly.
As a wise Elite once said "One single flood spore can destroy a species, if not for the arbiters counsel, I would have glassed your entire planet!"
He definitely wasn't exaggerating because the lore expands on just how powerful the flood are, all it takes is 1 spore and we are screwed.
I had nightmares for years
It's a pretty nightmarish scenario so there's nothing unusual about multiple people having a nightmarish nightmare.
Dude this reminded me of a dream I had where I had to fight the flood in a big ass mall and yet I beat them, but there was almost like a sequel bait to a dream where someone said they’re still out there😭😭 my dream turned into the mcu
Oh man. You using a spartan as an avatar to talk is such a throwback. I remember inhaling content like that as a kid during Halo 3's heyday
"50 thousand words"
Bro you wrote a literal BOOK for this. Holy cow this is amazing 👏👏👏
It was a lot of typing, that's for sure
@@Nikos. can i get the script as a document id like to read it like a book
@@The_loyal_femboy_3301 Sorry I'm late, it's on the patreon page if you'd like to give it a read
Thanks for always giving me great content for quieting the anxiety, I'm disabled and unable to do much and your videos are MINT.
Thanks! Glad I could make these for y'all!
Might I suggest some The Dark Somnium if you like storytelling?
What disability do you have? Respectfully, just curious.
disabled gang rise up!
@@sukaenacornelius9285 I have Ribose-5 phosphate isomerase Deficiency, sorta quite common
The backwards loading for Halo CE happened to me. I was only a kid when I played Halo, but I remember so vividly begging the game to load so I could continue playing it.
Dude exact same memory of tapping “A” on the old wide controller thinking it would help it go to the right 😂
Mine was halo 2
During it's load there's a black splotch the "beam" passes over which I never understood as a kid, if the disc is scratched enough it will ALWAYS freeze there
Good old hardware fail. It happened to me too
With the direction Halo has seemed to been going lately I'm happy to see the halo CZcamsrs are still making do and pushing out great vids
I love that the halo 2 condoms say "coming soon" 😂😂😂
I didn't catch that lmao
where in the game is this
Dont take this the wrong way... but these videos help me sleep so thank you. Not being negative i just dont know how to explain it
Sameeeee mannnn it gets me sleepy and makes me feel some kind of way
Why is it negative? This is a common thing.it’s a compliment to OP.. I always come back to this. It helps me sleep. It’s a compliment. Not negative.
5:23:28 scared me a little bit after mentioning screamer videos put me on edge, thanks for the mini heart attack lol
Same here 😭🤦♂️
You weren't kidding when you said you were working on this! So excited to watch this!! Thanks for putting in so much work into this, I can only imagine how long it took. Keep up the great work 😁
You are so welcome, it was an insane undertaking! Thanks for watching!
Here we are the Ultimate Halo iceberg we've come a long way ladies and gentlemen, and thank you Nikos for giving us this amazing series. (P.S) Congrats on 25k subs!!!
Thanks!!! I loved working on this series!
It took me about a week to listen to the whole video while I was working, and I'm really quite in awe of your willingness to make this video, and as a fan of the halo series since I was in grade school, it's a supreme pleasure to listen to these stories, thank you very much indeed. I look forward to your future updates!
Sorry bout late reply but glad you like it, and thanks for your support!
@@Nikos. Thank you very much for your reply, and thank you again for your contribution to the halo. You are awesome!
I can't believe I just watched all of this.
Absolutely incredible video, Nikos! I loved it from start to finish. Keep up the fantastic work! :)
Thanks! More on the way!
When I saw ,,Halo Cookbook’’ in the iceberg I knew this video was special.
lol
Fun fact about the crazed marine on 343 Guilty Spark. You were suppose to hear a pistol shot after leaving the room and if you returned to investigate you would find the marine dead. This got cut tho because they thought it was a bit too dark.
I feel soo old remembering most of all of these references. Probably the most detailed iceberg i've seen for the Halo series! Nicely done!~ 😇
If my machine hadn't died I'd have been right there with them. At least...that's what I tell myself. Hindsight makes things weird.
I can't help but tear up everytime I hear about the end days of Halo 2's servers. They will never be forgotten.
Mcc atleast
Good news, they're back!
Just wanted to share the undead scarab has two types. The one in the video is when you kill it before it spawns on the building, locking the level due to it not being destroyed after scripts and triggers are hit. However, in coop, one person can pass the tanks and get downhill quickly. The person on the scarab takes out the legs holding onto a side turret, as the person driving downhill gets to the fight area (the trigger is shortly after the last cliff faces). Destroying the scarab right after it gets to the ground will cause the undead glitch, and allows you to finish the level.
When i was younger i had a nightmare about halo, all i remember is being in a crater filled with tiny indents/caves and i was in one of them along with the master chief and two covenant aliens in robes (i think they were grunts) and master chief said to me "im sorry, it has to be done". Im pretty sure the chief and the aliens teamed up to commit a genocide of children and were going to kill me.
I had on where the flood infected a hunter and it began to hunt me
Wow, the effort put into this video and the sheer quality of it blows me away. It's so refreshing to see a content creator who's still passionate about Halo.
Thanks!
Hearing Gianni twice in this video was an unexpected treat.
never played a halo. finished the video and gonna watch it again. love this long content and your voice is soothing
1:53:37 I remember a discussion that was on the Halo Discord server about this, and Red vs Blue was one of the few *everyone* agreed upon.
"Master Chief is on the cover of that Mountain Dew bottle."
"Dey put Masta Chef in da soda!"
Wow I finally finished watching this. Amazing job, I was entertained the whole time. I know I'll watch this again in a few months when I forget most of the entries. Bravo
Thanks, appreciate you watching!
This is without a shadow of a doubt my favourite video on CZcams, massive props my man this must’ve taken a fuck load of research / editing ❤
Hey everyone it’s me Nikos! Nah fr tho this video is awesome to see finally finished. You put blood, sweat, and tears into it seeing it from the beginning to the finished product is awesome great stuff Nikos. Onwards to 30k 🎉🎉
Thanks king, your comment means so much to me man! Someone get this man to 10k already!
I have a personal theory for why Cortana becomes evil so suddenly in Halo 5. I believe that the Forerunner technology she used to repair herself, was actually the same technology used by the Didact, you know, the heretic Forerunner. So, after she had repaired herself, her systems instantly absorbed all this false information from the Didact, how the Mantle of Responsibility was suppose to go to the Forerunners, how the Halo rings could solve the Flood problem and so on and so on, and this event specifically is what caused her to resent all life, and become some sort of dictator for all machines.
I have a theory too: bad writing
I don't think she ever cured her rampancy and that's the answer - she transferred into a Forerunner framework which basically let her go super rampant without the previous constraints of her human-made matrix which would have killed her.
I love these super long format videos. I drive a truck and it’s nice to watch these while my co driver is on duty and I’m chilling riding along. Really makes the time go by
Thanks, glad the video could help you out! Drive safe out there
I've been watching this for the past two days while playing through Halo 3 and Reach and it's like reading a book and watching its movie adaptation at the same time. Great video, definitely going to keep up with this channel
The 7 dead marines on Guilty Spark are intentional I believe. All you have to do is descend the elevator into the facility and then immediately take the elevator back up. The reason I think they’re intentional is because not only does the game unload all corpses that you killed when you enter the facility, but it also spawns new covenant corpses in select locations. All with the same death positions as most set dressing corpses in the game. Same with the 7 marines. I wanna say there’s even some blue blood accompanying the dead grunts that spawn but I can’t remember for certain
40:17 Another way to get the Elephant flipped is to jam a Wraith into its vehicle bay. I don’t know how, bur someone did that in one of my games, and the Elephant just went crazy. It was jittering and tumbling everywhere, sometimes enough to let you see the flip message and flip the thing, which would make it even more erratic. If you tried to drive the Elephant, you couldn’t really control it, and you’d die after several seconds (presumably from the physics, but the game said suicide iirc)
Thats how me and my friend did it many years ago. We also accidentally stumbled across it ourselves.
Cant imagine how much work went into this. Thanks for the video, much appreciated!
Anytime, thanks!
Wow.. props to you, this is incredible!! Seriously great content you deserve more subs!! ❤
Gives me such good vibes from being a kid and playing halo 2 on repeat with my brother.
I've watched all the other iceberg videos repeatedly and I know I'll watch this one repeatedly!!
Keep up the good work, it does not go unnoticed
Thanks! Glad you liked it and I'll keep this up!
The absolute joy of being reminded about Arby and the Chief I felt was worth every second of watch time. Stellar work man
You and Face Full of Eyes have the highest content quality to subscriber ratio on the platform. These types of videos are becoming an expanding trend and I hope you and Face Full of Eyes get the exposure you deserve.
Thanks! I hope so too!
About palmer, i hated her too at first but then i read i think it was called bloodline? when Buck first encountered her where she was holding off covenant forces while protecting her wounded squad by her self with nothing but dual magnums. To me it kinda redeemed her character showing even with certain defeat she'll fight until she cant to protect her men. which i respect
Sorry for the late reply, but Bloodline is about Black Team. You must be talking about New Blood or Bad Blood.
holy mackerel dude. ive been listening to this over the last few days and im just thinking how the images, screenshots, and sources must have taken so much work. serious props to you to get all this information in one place. one of the halo community legends imo.
Thanks! It took months of diligent work plus resolving numerous rendering errors that plagued the final upload, I’m glad you like it and thank you for the kind words!
4:55:00 I definitely remember this screamer video from my childhood, I thought earlier in the iceberg when you were talking about seeing inside Master Chief's helmet you were going to mention this jump scare from early youtube. But i'm glad to see it did end up getting mentioned and that i wasn't the only one terrified by this as a kid.
1:06:05 You unlocked a memory by telling this!!! I remember playing with some dudes from Spain that loved playing parkour maps (the ones with an infected player following you), and one day they decided it was a great idea for everyone to play as elites 😅... Soon realized we were too tall to make it through a crouching spot 😂😂 we were all deceased by laughter!!!
My friend was hellbent to not play as a human. He stubbornly refused to change. His screams of fear were too good when he couldn’t fit trough the gap, he even jokingly tried to block us from getting past on another run
This was an amazing. I sat and listened to this while I was grinding out the new season 5 battle pass and trying to get to the hero rank. Love your production quality. I feel your love for halo in this vid
Thanks! Glad you enjoyed and hope you’re liking season 5
i hate that this hasn’t received more attention and that i’m so late to the party, not even an hour in and i’m enthralled. thank you to the incredible talent that brought this to us!
broooooo sir curity camera is sooooo fire
this is the best iceberg video ive ever seen, the fact its so jampacked with stuff is insane.
Edit: i played through the og halos so i didnt spoil any info so im here to finish the video
Thanks!
Good to see you back in the feed Nikos! I used to love watching your content back during infinites first content drought.
Good to be back! It's been wild making videos lately as the game is in an interesting state to say the least!
You know, I said to myself "If Arby n the Chief and Gears of Halo Theft Auto 5 isn't on here, I'm going to be disappointed". I'm glad you added both yourself. Grew up on the halo machinima's back in the day.
Im from hungary and was suprised the Gutas has roots in hungarian folklore. But the Word guta also means anger in our language so its quite fitting.
I cannot imagine how long this took to make. Tysm
2 months or so... give or take
Actually gasped in terror when the iceberg image was brought up from how goddamn huge it is
Dude that halo spin off game with the random guy who becomes the promethean with the forerunner artifact sounds insane, first I’ve ever heard of that and I’m so upset it never happened that sounds awesome
In regards to dual wielding energy swords in halo 2, this can be modded in, even on an original Xbox. It can be done with any weapon , even a BR or a Shotgun. However, if you try and swing the sword you will drop the 2nd sword immediately, so you can hold 2 swords but only ever use 1
This ice berg must decend to the earths core DAMN THATS BIG
This is an incredibly long but thought out video, ultimately an amazing video to watch on and off. Also take a shot for every time Nikos says "Halo" :D. Needs more views! Great video!
Thanks! Hopefully you weren’t too wasted by the end of the video 😂
You’ve got a great voice , very clear and easy to listen to. Perfect for the essay type videos
Thanks, I'll keep using it for those types of vids!
Great video !
The one at 4:12:20, the backtracking dead marines on 343 guilty spark is surely on purpose because there is covies bodies in there too that weren't there. And they are placed really like a scenery.
I discoverded that a year ago after 20 years playing this game
It probably is, but weird because most players wouldn't go that direction
But for those who did, it adds a level of horror, just like the elevator exploding if you try to go backward after the cutscene
I love watching icebergs as I sleep, I rewind every night to the last part I remember so I’m so glad I found a new one to listen to!! You gained a new subscriber. I know it took a lot of work so keep it up 🙏
Thanks, welcome to the channel!
I’m back tonight!
Welcome back @@nykiasyn
@@nykiasynI do this too, run out of podcasts haha
One crazy thing that happened to me on Halo 3 was when I shot a sniper bullet down the rocket launcher alley on The Pit, no one was there but I got a headshot kill, so I went into the theatre to see what happened and my bullet killed someone at the back of the map near the shotgun room but the bullet went into the wall and came out another wall headshotting this poor player.
I wondered if my bullet was actually aimed at their head but there was walls in the way which confused the game and made the bullet hit the player from somewhere else?
Best iceberg video on CZcams, you deserve a lot more subs. Also has anyone mentioned the ghost of foundry on halo 3? I remember being in lobbies alone on customs or forge and getting invaded by a black Spartan that was non hostile
I didn't mention the ghost of foundry but it was at one point in the research, I just never scripted it as there were a lot of maps to mention. Would the spartan move and attack or was it just stationary like a statue?
@@Nikos. from what I remember it would walk forward until it would disappear, but I also had to have been around 10 years old so I can’t remember very well
I’m new to the Halo franchise and actually needed a video like this thank you!! 💕
Anytime!
Even though I 2x speeded this video, can’t believe I sat through it. Fantastic job! One thing that should’ve been added early in the iceberg was probably halo cosmetics being featured in Among Us when the game launched on Xbox
Oh man I forgot about that cross over, thanks for watching and glad you liked it!
This is super well done, great stuff dude.
Thanks!
You are definitely great Nikos...awesome work done to make these videos...great content!
Thanks!!!
As master chief once said: "now this is epic."
Only just starting this, but MASSIVE props for the dedication this must have taken, absolutely amazing work!
No doubt!!
Thanks! It took countless hours and I had to upload it twice due to the first render being busted.
I was watching the Ultimate HALO ICEBERG video you made at this moment... More 5 hours of content lesgo
You planned this, didn't you
glad to have helped out a bit with this. Very impressive how detailed and dense this is.
Thanks again! Love the stop motions!
I know this is a pointless nitpick, but MoistCritikals’s challenge was LASO deathless except for one skull that actually helps you, which I can’t remember the name of. That is the most difficult the game can possibly be. Awesome vid man!
Thanks! I guess it removes a skull that buffs the player, that would make the game more challenging I suppose and makes since to remove it.
Something I didn't see mentioned is that you can hijack the Anti-Air wraith at the beginning of the Covenant in Halo 3!
You simply have to melee off the hatch with the pilot in it, and hold down the board button while you kill the pilot with a precision weapon. You'll hop into the wraith but it will explode once you exit
I remember this trick! Could never pull it off as a kid!
Thanks for the hours of time you put into this passion project. Much love enjoyed it.
You deserve more subs this is one of the best halo videos can’t believe how long it must have took you to find all this stuff.
Like a year or so on and off to find all this, thanks for your kind words and big thanks to the legend who made the image for it in the description above
Now I know how long it’ll take to explain halo to my friends lol.
This was one of the most fun 5 hours of my life and for that I thank you
Thank you for watching, glad you enjoyed it
Fell back in love with halo recently, great video to bring me back up to speed
Man hit me in the nostalgia with using in game halo to talk to us i love it man
I’m surprised the halo interactive strategy board game wasn’t in this iceberg, I remember my mom buying it for me at Ross cuz she knew I liked halo
It was added right when I finished this video, I have a copy had no idea anyone else knew about it!
I forgot it existed honestly until I watched this video. I remember not understanding the rules but I liked the game pieces it came with and I replayed the dvd a lot.
I remember seeing it in Walmart and asking my mom for it she sadly said no
@@CompostGaming I didn’t get it at all cuz I was a kid, so I don’t know if you were missing much. But everything feels magical when you’re kid and the dvd with the figures was fun to play with
5:23:40 made me jump out of my skin!
hahaha my bad bro
impressive video it took me two days to watch this whole video i can't imagine the time it took hella dedication
Oh, about that Master Chief screamer video. I actually remember that as a kid. I was scrolling through CZcams as a kid up past my bedtime and was searching for Master Chief’s face, and I saw one of those videos. It was this like grotesque screaming woman with black hair and red skin, so it looked pretty bloody. Scared the shit out of me. I think there might have been other videos, too, but idk. That's all I remember. The best time I can date this is like early 2014, late 2013, but I don't remember the specifics.
I’ve seen a good theory that the Meddlers Species was actually the Endless, as the new Halo Encyclopaedia says that a small fracture of the Endless escaped the Forerunners imprisonment and went across the galaxy to other Forerunners facilities, searching for ways to free their kind. If this is true, this only brings up another question, what caused their ship to crash?
@@CommissarChaotic Go Off.
@@CommissarChaotic what are you even talking about?
I don't think it's coincidence the amount of HALO 2 music that's in this video, even at this length.
I still think it has far and away the best story, campaign, and score of the entire series.
The score is amazing fs
Liking, commenting, and subscribing purely for your efforts, I can tell even before I get done watching that this must have been a MASSIVE undertaking
Welcome aboard! I appreciate your support!
I hope this video get abt 500k views soon. You deserve it.
Thanks! Me as well!
13:17 There actually are only 7 in the current array, however, there were either 12 or 13 in the Greater Halo array that were destroyed by the flood soon after their creation, due to them being created within the galaxy. That is why the lesser Ark is located outside the galaxy, and the lesser Halo array was deployed only a short while before their firing.
This is wild, thanks for sharing!
Are you sure that the markings on the magnum are a reference to its power? you mentioned that the weapon became so powerful due to a last minute change so its seems unlikely that they would have changed the textures as well. Considering that one of the markings means "7" and one means "Power" i would say that its more likely to be a reference to "The Power of Seven" which is the group that created the "Marathon 2: Durandal" theme song.
Im so happy ppl take the time to make these types of videos
Maybe I missed it, but it’s odd that I didn’t see the Corruption skull on Halo 3’s Cortana mission mentioned in the video. On Cortana, there’s a second hidden skull easily accessible using a deployable cover that, when picked up, corrupts your games save data, completely erasing your campaign progress. I don’t know what the actual name of this skull is. But my friends and I just always called it the Corruption Skull.
It's beautiful. I'm going to watch the entire thing.
I believe the reason that the chief is referred to as "cyborg" in the code might be connected to marathon since in those games you play as a cyborg, also at some point halo was supposed to be a marathon game, idk if they had even written a single line of code before they changed their minds but if they did it would make sense if the player character was one of the first things they created and thus got the cyborg name since that was what they were supposed to be at that point in development.
This does hold weight, it is likely that that was the original plan
All Spartans are cyborgs, that's what enhancements mean
I have been messing around in forge since halo 3. I've built a ton of maps, mostly for splitscreen play. Many were just messing around. I have hoped to encounter a ghost since finding the first lockout video. Sometimes I boot up just blackout or lockout and hang out for an hour or two. On blackout, I delete all objects, play basketball with grenades, and build something out of fusion coils.
I've never seen a ghost. At this point, I don't know what my response would be lol.
You earned a sub. Bro this video is so well done I expect you will make even better videos
Thanks for the sub, I'm gonna keep uploading bangers stay tuned
@@Nikos. definitely. I was cooking myself some food after work and I saw this video and I casted it to the living room tv to listen while cooking
The Halo CE pistol being a last minute change has been debunked several times. And it's not nearly as OP as it's memed to be. Though it is certainly more than a little unbalanced.
Holy shit his is my life now see ya in 5 hours
see ya then
Man you’re seriously The GOAT!!! Thanks for giving us some great content, you’re very much appreciated 🫶🏽🙌🏾🐐
Thanks a lot, this comment means a lot to me! More on the way!
The cut halo 3 death scene is crazy. You get to see Master chief fight to the end and never give up.
If you turn on subtitles on Halo Reach, for the cutscene where there's a "discrepancy" for Jorge because of his accent, it clearly says ma'am. People who have been confused about this for SOOO long just don't know how to turn on subtitles🤦♂️
