I have played Halo 2! This is just the cutscenes from my full playthrough edited together 😊
We are back with Halo! This time with the reaction to the Halo 2 Anniversary Cutscenes! 💚
Apologies if it seems a little choppy at times, I tried to cut it together as seamless as possible!
Thank you so much for watching!
As always leave a Like, Comment, Subscribe, and have a good day 😊💚
So, you took content you already made and then made then into a new video just to make more money while doing nothing original and being lazy?
Good to know I don't need to stick around if all your doing is taking your own content and reusing it just for views.
@@odrankeane-teague1601 Yeah because editing a 51 minute long video is definitely being lazy. Good riddance bud.
I love ur videos they are so cool
I like suscribe turn on notifications
U playing on mcc right?
Whoever decided that the opening cutscene should be constantly switching between Thel's punishment and Chief, Johnson and Keyes being rewarded was a genius
not just a genius. an actual beethoven of presenting a story.
My very first Tattoo was a Mark of Shame
whoever decided that the very first cutscene should be a huge spoiler for the rest of the game and also make us remember halo 5 was an idiot
@@arcadeinvader8086 correct.
@@arcadeinvader8086 They finally patched it out so it doesnt play. I agree its fucking stupid
Fun fact: Johnson's speech when he delivers the tank changes depending on difficulty, and on OG cutscene when you defeat the Scarab it actually shows which weapon you were wielding when you kill the last Elite on the scarab so you can see the chief holding a sniper rifle/shotgun/etc for example when he walks out the scarab
Oh that is such a neat touch!
The best one is definetely heroic though.
Always used to grab the elites sword in the og halo 2 days
Except of course the rocket launcher :(
Usually, the good Lord works in mysterious ways, but not today. This here is 66 tons of straight up HE-spewing DI-VINE intervention! If God is love, well, you can call me Cupid.
Fun fact: when the covenant ship goes through the slipspace portal and it collapses at 15:30, thats the end of the opening cutscene from Halo 3 ODST when the Rookie is blown away in his drop pod.
That is such a cool connection!
@@GamerJoobChannel It’s pretty awesome. And if you look closely when you’re dropping, you can actually see In Amber Clad racing across the city to reach the ship.
Yeah it's my favourite scene in all of halo, the in Amber clad racing to catch regret, the destruction, the music it's all too good
I thought it was pretty bizarre that ODST stated there was an entire month between the start of halo 2 and the start if halo 3.
@@themuzzy5092 No you literally can't
"Do I play as him!?" - also said by every first-time Halo 2 player ever!
hahaha yes! it was a very cool moment!
I remember being a stupid kid and I started shooting the grunts until I realised they had a green reticle.
The quality of these scenes kind of helps me understand why someone who cares more for the story might put Halo 2 at the top.
They are so good!
The story and how it plays out between Chief and Arbiter is so good!
Halo 2 is my favorite Halo game by far. Though I might be biased because my first time playing it was as Anniversary in the Master Chief Collection.
Also if you haven't played Halo 5 the intro cutscenes with the Arbiter and Locke doesn't make any sense.
The story of halo 2 is so much more intricate than it gets credit for. Arbiter has an entire character arc and goes from an unknown villain to one of Halo’s most beloved heroes
The story of halo is the point for me. Halo multiplayer was never the best thing out there, these games were always made for campaign, up until 343 anyway, and even then to an extent, they just kinda fucked the story tho imo for 4 & 5. But ye, I'd say the campaign/story is almost the entire point of this series.
@@benjaminkrake4211 i wouldn't say unknown villain he was the one who burned reach and killed billions. His military service is quite legendary in the covenant.
Halo 2 anniversary - "Day at the beach" cinematic
Already plan on checking it out 😊
@@GamerJoobChannel ❤️
@@GamerJoobChannel It's actually available to view on The Master Chief Collection. You just have to scroll down to Extras on the main menu > Videos > Halo 2 Anniversary Cinematics > and then scroll all the way down to Another Day At The Beach
@@GamerJoobChannel you should also check out the halo 2 2003 demo to see how the game was supposed to be like
A damn shame you missed out on the true Johnson tank speech. When I watched the cutscene we didn't have no fancy tank. We had sticks. Two sticks, and a rock for the whole platoon. AND WE HAD TO SHARE THE ROCK.
It truly goes to show how great a voice actor Dee Bradly Baker is. Gravemind, Klaus on American Dad, the Clones on Clone Wars and Bad Batch, and SO MUCH MORE!!
He also voiced General RAAM from GoW
26:36 it was a doll. That Jackal was just bullying the Grunt by taking it away from him.
Primarily because Jackals and Grunts hate each other with a passion.
Fun fact, Johnson here is around 77 Y/O.
Oh really haha!
he looks good!
Yeah and John is around, near mid 40s as of Halo Infinite. Again he might live longer due to even more bodily enhancemets the spartan 2 program gave from young age unlike Orion/ spartan 1 program which was voulentary/ recruits like Avery Jhonson went through.
Johnson was in the original Spartan program, so he has some genetic enhancements like chief. Just not nearly as many and they weren’t nearly as effective
@@GamerJoobChannel Seem to recall from some lore tidbit that in the 26th century, the average life expectancy was 150 years, given that humanity by that point had all but eliminated most - if not all - diseases.
Best example of this comes from a marine, who due to I think some Slipspace accident, ended up being sent back to the early 2000's and was told by doctors he had cancer. The guy apparently didn't even know what cancer was, given that it was pretty much non-existent in the future.
Honestly, those cinematics, I really wish they would've made an impressive movie of this.
They are so good!
I would love a Halo movie like this!
"When you first saw Arbiter's armor, were you blinded by his majesty?"
*Halo
Blinded? (Someone continue this)
Paralysed?
Dumbstruck?
No
Halo 2 Anniversary cutscenes were remastered by Blur Studios, and they look awesome! And the Arbiter has never looked better! 🤩
If you collect some of the terminals detailing how Thel Vadamee ascended through ranks, you’ll see that ONI had plans for him.
They look so incredible!
Thel was basically the Covenant version of Erwin Rommel
Make sense, Rommel was considered to be the leader of Germany by the Allies after WW2. And Thel become the leader of the Elites after the human-convenet war right?
@@isaacfairburne9981 He died before WW2 ended. He knew about the July 20th plot to assassinate Hitler but kept quiet so the SS went to his house drove him a bit away where they gave him a cyanide capsule to kill himself. If he didn't they would've killed or taken his wife and son.
The "Giving the Covenant back their bomb" is one of the coolest video game cutscenes of all time. Even with the original game engine graphics in the original version, it was incredibly epic.
It was actually a byproduct of the team having to cut levels to finish the game on time. Originally, you were supposed to travel into the ship and blow it up yourself. When they cut the mission, they substituted it for this cutscene.
It's an awesome cutscene, but I still wish I could've played this. After all, I wanna play a game, not watch a movie.
During that same cut scene, where the ship jumps, in halo odst the troopers are dropping in
That is so cool!
The dialogue and story is so good! It's funny when I played this as the kid I hardly understood what they were saying but now that I'm older it's like. Majestic! Halo 2 is my absolute fav. Thel'Vadam is just breathtaking as a character, too!
When you first saw these new cutscenes, were you blinded by its majesty?
The voice acting, the dialogue, the story. Just outstanding!!! Halo 2's campaign was my absolute favorite. Combined with the birth of Xbox Live, Halo 2 changed video games forever.
I agree! Halo 2 is my favourite! The story is so great!
I was 11 when OG Halo 2 came out. Best time of my life growing up with Halo 1 2 and 3
Oh that would have been awesome!
the original trilogy is so good!
21:51 - 21:55 the exact reason why I love Chief and Johnson’s relationship, no words, just a signal to each other.
You mean 25:51 ?
It was awesome seeing this reaction.
However after seeing your perspective on the grave mind, I HIGHLY recommend you check out Hidden xperia's flood lore videos. That way you can see why the flood are potentially one or the worst threats conceived in fiction.
I am so glad! 😊
I would love to react to some of those videos!
That would be awesome!
@@GamerJoobChannel great I really hope you pursue it! Might I reccomend starting with his series called the index? It goes through the entire history of the flood, pre halo CE. Or, the story of the mona lisa if you want to see how dark and disturbing ONI is..
I hope your channel continues to grow and you find success in whatever you do! Keep up the great content!
There is an extra cutscene that was not used for the campaign, it's called a day at the beach and it takes place during the first new mombasa cutscene where the scarab shoots down the pelicans. This cutscene is about the pelican that got hit by the scarab beam and its squad of odst that survived which you run into in the dark hotel hallway that leads to the mombasa beach.
Yes!
I do plan to watch that 😊
Thank you for the suggestion!
This puts a smile on my face when you did the cutscenes for this game. H2 is the very first Halo game I've ever played and will always be my favorite, warms my heart to see people give H2 it's shine since this is a hidden gem compared to the rest.
Yes!!
I love Halo 2 so much!
When arbiter is bound and burned, I actually have his mark of shame tattooed in the same spot
dope
That armor suits you but it can never hide that mark
“To give the covenant back their bomb” is such an incredible line
It really is so good!
I remember playing this when I was 6 years old and falling in love with the halo franchise... Truly none like it.
It is very good! The Story and characters hold up so well!
@@GamerJoobChannel if you're interested in learning an abundance more, maybe consider reading the books, or listening to the audiobook.... Halo is so vast and intricate it's mind blowing.
Thel 'Vadam And Rtas Vadum are as memorable as The Master Chief, Cortana, and SGT. Johnson. I hope these two iconic Elites come back to fight off the Banished in Halo Infinite.
How disappointed are you ?
@@guyfromcabin9 I mean anything with 343i on it, is absolute dogwater.
And the show takes the cake.
Another thing that would be really cool for you to react to is Halo speedruns, you'd be amazed at what techniques people figure out in order to get through levels fast.
Yeah I want to see her reaction to the shenanigans runners pull with the energy sword in H2.lol.
Ohhh that would be fun!!
I will definitely do that in the future! 😊
@@GamerJoobChannel Your mind will be blown :D
39:03 can you hear the audio difference ? the grave mind has fully assimilated the prophet of regret . his voice is now its voice
I do know that now! At the time of reacting I hadn't picked up on those details!
I was a little stunned by the visual of the Gravemind haha!
I love watching people react to halo for the first time, I wish I could recreate that feeling I first had. I definitely look forward to you doing halo reach!
Aww im glad 😊
i have played all of the games if youd like to watch the full Playthroughs!
The best speech from Johnson before the Metropolis mission is his whole "We didn't have any fancy-schmancy tanks! We had sticks! Two sticks and a rock for a whole platoon! And we had to SHARE the rock!" These cutscenes especially with the Prophets are even more interesting when you realize the 3 Prophets all knew humanity are the Reclaimers of the Forerunner legacy from the Forerunner AI Mendicant Bias but they covered it up and assumed power. It's funny each Prophets' name relates to their deaths. Regret regretted going to Earth and that move killed him, Mercy received no Mercy from Truth, and Truth died preaching his lies. And no wonder Miranda is upset her father is dead because he raised her on his own. There was actually a cut mission where Miranda betrayed the UNSC to get Chief killed because she blamed him for her father's death.
Glad they cut that one.
WAIT WHAT why’d she blame cheif??? And IS THIS CANON?
@@Gutssssss666 I'm not sure why and no it isn't. Like I said it was cut from the game.
Just realised the prophet of regret regretted coming to Earth, Master Chief showed mercy on the prophet of mercy by squishing that flood squid thing, and the arbiter kills the prophet and truth because he’s chatting absolute shit
Regret was also unrepentantly reckless, charging in on his own toward Earth and then Delta Halo.
Mercy was a bloodthirsty old misanthrope, and Truth, _well._ He knew the score, which was why he took off in the Forerunner dreadnaught.
“For a brick, he flew pretty good!“ - the line that made halo 2 officially god tier.
This game was by far the best in the series and the cutscenes were a full length movie all on their own! Great video
Fun Fact if you didn't know already: The Elite in the white armor with Arbiter is Shipmaster from Halo 3, and this is when they met!
Ohhh right! I dont remember him much in 3!
@@GamerJoobChannel He's not in a ton of the game, more as a background character unlike the Arbiter, but I think he has one of the best Cutscenes in the entire game!
czcams.com/video/TQi4hDz0s9E/video.html
Makes me so happy to see how much you’re enjoying this!
Thank you!
I enjoyed playing all the games so much 😊
15:42 Not actually. Although a number of skyscrapers did fall along with the space elevator, nearly 80% of the city was intact, until the glassing of course.
I love the designs of the Covenant ships!
They are very cool!
9:45 "dang, master chief. you finna make me act up."
She secretly has the hots for Master Cheif
ya girl a big Arbiter fan!
But Chief is cool too haha!
Hey jade, sorry that I’m 2 days belated. I’m glad to watch your reaction to halo 2 cutscenes (anniversary cutscenes) you should check the og halo 2 cutscenes and see how 343i did a great job remastering this game.
It’s funny to see you reacting to the arbiter cutscene and think that “arbiter” is the armor only😂
Hey!
that is totally ok haha! 😊
that would be fun!
hahaha yes! a lot of things I didnt 100% get the first time 😂
I just wish 343 had gone back and actually finished the game and balanced it so the actual gameplay would match the new cutscenes.
It would be really cool if you reacted to the og cutscenes
That would be fun!
Did anyone tell you that the first cutscene was a future arbiter in halo 5 telling how he and chief became friends?
I always imagined that the story of halo 2 anniversary was the arbiter's retelling of the events, and that was the explanation for the small details that are different.
Yes I figure it out when I played 5 😊
With more recent info that came from short clips released by 343 the line "do you know how expensive this is son?" Hits harder as you know that many people sacrificed themselves to work even during glassing of the planet their own to get the materials needed to make the new armor for master chief. No price can be put on that set of armor as many sacrifed themselves to ensure it was completed.
Also if you can find it, theres a deleted scene from when the scarab destroyed the pelicans when they came down to earth. its just a bunch of marines holding off the covenant on the beach they die, but while playing you find their bodies and the pelican on the beach
I wish I could wipe my memory and playthrough the Halo games for the first time again, the nostalgia really makes me sad now im older
I didn’t know ‘that was hot’ was the reaction I wanted.. but it’s the reaction I needed..
I will always say that Blur Studios is the best to do this kind of thing, Thanks for the video Jade, I have a question, are you going to do this with the other halo? or just with these two?
Blur Studios absolutely nail the cinematics!
I think we end up uploading my reaction to all the cutscenes! 😊
that was so entertaining! honestly had chills the whole time. I must have played halo 2 at least 100 times through as a kid... seeing how well they redid the cutscenes was just incredible. seeing your genuine reactions reminded me of how i felt so many years ago :')
I love how ODST and Halo 2 are connected
It such a cool tie in!
Both such great games as well!
The Halo cutscenes are always so good! Glad you enjoyed it 🤗
They are so good!
I loved Halo 2!
Master Chief destroying an entire Covenant cruiser with a single bomb
Sergeant Johnson: "THAT STILL ONLY COUNTS AS ONE!"
49:26 I love how realistic the monitor’s gesture is.
"You look nice."
"Thanks." "Thank you."
*Looks at each other*
lmao I love Chief and Johnson's dynamic.
Awh man I was looking forward to Johnson saying “If god is love, then you can call me Cupid”. The best line ever
Blur did this series a fantastic service with these cutscenes.
it's so awesome seeing people's reaction to halo games for the first time, makes me nostalgic of my first time playing. thank you
Thank you 😊
Glad you enjoyed it!
My full playthrough is also up on the channel if youd like to check it out!
Take note that the Prophet's names are ironic lol
Prophet of Truth - Knew that the Great Journey was a lie
Prophet of Mercy - Was not shown any mercy when he was killed
Prophet of Regret - Did not regret anything, even after death
I love that!
Ayye the cutscenes!! God they look amazing!
yes!
The do look incredible!
"boo" -master chief 2552
"Ladies love Tanks."
No.
Bitches Love Cannons.
Fun Fact: Miranda Keyes is not only Captain Keyes' daughter, but Dr. Halsey's too.
This is what H2 looked like to us back when it 1st release
hahaha yes! i get that so much with older games! Blur did such an amazing job with the cinematics!
Hahahha love your laugh in the GRUNT PART hahaha
I've played through the Halo 2 campaign so many times back on the OG Xbox. Will always be one of my fondest memories as a kid. Despite all the launch issues that MCC had (which are more or less fixed so the game is playable now), Halo 2 Anniversary makes me so happy because the new graphics (especially the Blur cutscenes) make the game look and feel exactly the way I imagined it in my head when I first played the original.
22:42 I like how you noticed that small detail where the Arbiter crashes the same way Master Chief did in CE!
I’m really enjoying this series watching the cutscenes hope you guys do more of these
Thank you 😊
Glad you like them
Imagine seeing this onee BIG SCREEN as it were a movie. should be fun
Oh that would be awesome!
I want a Halo movie haha!
The story writing this game. The Gravemind has a guilty-spark - 0-5 so using its Forunner teleport ability isn't a bad use of semi plot hole without explanation...
When I first saw the bomb scene it gave me chills. When I saw it with anniversary graphics, I climaxed. What I wouldn’t do to relive that day.
I can see why this game is the best. U get to play both Chief and Arbiter. And u get to see Arbiter story and how he became a favorite in future Halo games.
I love the story in 2!
26:35 It is an action figure. In the original cutscene (depending on difficulty) it would be playing with two different action figures.
I think the two Gravemind quotes “I am a monument of all your sins” and “there is still time to stop the key from turning” give me the most chills
Something you could do is react a couple cutscenes of CE and Halo 2 in classic mode to see the graphics comparisons as the cutscenes are slightly different in parts as well
I swapped back and forth a small bit in this video!
But it would be cool to do that in the future 😊
"this is like a Movie quality"
exactly, Blur Studios made the CGI for some Movies. they were cool dudes
Fun fact: when Cortana come up and talk to Admiral Hood and she say Another whisper, sir near Io. If you play destiny 2 you can get a weapon call Whisper of the worm on a planet call Io. it’s was a Bungie Easter egg before they left halo to make destiny
You're really responding to damn near every comment. Keep up the good work, would be cool to see you react to some lore vids and maybe Halo Legends
Thank you so much 😊
I definitely plan to watch some Flood Lore in the future!
I have like a little list of things people have suggested I plan to check out 😊
Me and a friend unironically turned "15 Covenant battleships" into a meme/inside joke on the same level as detroits stab wounds meme.
2:18 Yeah, it is epic. But not as epic as never actually following through on this entire exchange in Halo 5 because they botched the damn story
Little did the three Prophets know that by creating the Arbiter, they (ironically) saved humanity.
I envy people who get to experience these games for the first time D:
It was very fun playing through all of them! 😊 Such great games!
The brute calling the ship Master a coward because of lack of information.
1:26 Because noone knew from H5 already that MC is who Locke is hunting...
Fun little detail you may not have noticed! While the elites are reciting their oath and some grunts are fucking around on the Phantom right before you pkay as him for the first time, the Arbiter is the only one totally still and silent, his head bowed and his mandibles unmoving. Hes the only one not reciting the oath as he is not one of them!
Just an FYI for the anniversary edition: The very first cutscene you saw with Spartan Locke (blue visor) and the gold elite is brand new and is NOT part of Halo 2. It was added to help set up the story for Halo 5. A prequel of sorts. Our golden elite is actually our good friend Arbiter, who essentially pimped his armor from that silver color to gold. That first cutscene also is part of a TV commercial in which Arbiter delivers a line in regards to Master Chief "The seeds of our future are sown in his path". I'll find it and link it likely.
One more little tid bit. The Covenant is a collective of different species. So the Brutes wanting to eat Arbiter (wasn't Arbiter yet, but still) would not be cannibalism. The members of the Covenant are as follows:
Elites, which includes Arbiter
Brutes, AKA big monke
Grunts, AKA cone heads
Jackals, AKA the source of fear on legendary difficulty
Hunter, AKA big meanies as well as the Scarabs, AKA forbidden gummy worms
Drones, AKA flying dudes
And the Prophets, of which since they don't exactly appear as anything more than political members in game, also have the official title of old meat sacks.
The have official names. For example, the elites are formally known as the Sangheli, from the planet Sanghelios.
You should react to the alternate versions of the cutscene where Johnson gives Chief a tank.
Johnson's lines vary depending on the difficulty.
I did know about that! I have already seen them! It is cool haha!
Growing up playing this game endlessly and seeing it given a full cinematic remaster honestly gets me teary eyed by it's epic scale. The original captured it so well I thought at the time but seeing it re-imagined blows my mind each time. It's such a beautiful game.
I never played the original release!
But Halo 2 i my favourite in the series and a big part is due to how the story is told! Blur did such an amazing job!
@@GamerJoobChannel They really did. It's also interesting how well the original voice and music hold up. It all feels surprisingly cohesive. My only nitpick is the remaster replaced a Breaking Benjamin song that plays during the campaign. It's still there if you switch back so not a big deal. lol
Just so you know, the Arbiter was the supreme commander of The Fleet of Particular Justice. His fleet has glassed at least 7 human worlds and is responsible for over 1 billion casualties
11:50 What the heck? I wasn´t expecting that but i'm glad you recorded because that should be on your gag reel.
"To give the covenant their bomb back"- Master chief 2021 Happy new year! 2022!
32:06 the phantom is flying backwards lol
MC: Commander. Permission to leave the station.
Hood: For what reason Master Chief.
MC: To give the Covenant the goddamn Big Mac they ordered.
Hood: Permission granted.
I like the difference in the beginning cinematic, chief being congratulated for his accomplishments and thel being punished for his failures. Both doing the right thing, but two very different outcomes.
That is so true! I love the contrast between their stories!
It is so good! Halo 2 genuinely made me such a fan of the series! The Arbiter is a great character!
@@GamerJoobChannel Yeah he is! I hope he appears in Infinite.
Halo 2 has by far in my opinion the best story of the Halo's even despite the cliffhanger. Literally every line in this game is quotable.
Great video. I always enjoy Jade's reactions.
Thank you!!😊
Loved this so much and love you spartan outfit
Thank you 😊
Spartan Locke is literally just an OC made by 343 because 343 forgot that Master Chief was the main character of Halo
Ron Pearlman's best nonchalant 2 word line ever: "Permission Granted"
The expanded lore is interesting, too. As the reason the Forerunners were driven to the extreme of mass genocide and destroying themselves was because they kept sacrificing others to buy themselves time to fight the Flood and try to figure out a solution. Before then, in the Human-Flood War, humanity sacrificed itself to evacuate and save everyone else. The Flood was testing if humanity would do so and was satisfied by the results. The Forerunners technically were the Flood's true target, but it seems likely given the Precursor's beliefs that if they had reacted like humanity had then they would have probably been spared. They did not, to say the least.
