Hey everyone. It's been a while. I am sorry that it took so long to get back to recording episodes of Let's Play Halo 2. I had shoulder surgery back in August. When I did, I had no idea just how long it takes to recover from that. I still do not have full range of motion with my left arm. IT took a long time just to get to the point where I could sit down at my computer for more than maybe an hour without my shoulder killing me and longer still before I was able to hold a controller comforable for moire than an hour or so. Well I am finally able to record again. Not only that, but I got all my parts of the Playstation 2 video edited. You all will get three episodes of HAlo 2 and the Playstation 2 video in relatively short order, and I have started streaming again. Thanks for watching. I hope you enjoy.

00:00Hello, everyone, and welcome back to Let's Play Halo 2. This is episode 12.
00:09I don't remember where the fuck we are in this game because it has been so, so fucking long since we last recorded.
00:18And that's entirely on me because I had soldier...
00:21Shoulder surgery. I can't fucking speak.
00:30But I had shoulder surgery on my left arm, and shoulder surgery apparently takes forever to recover from.
00:44Because there was a long period of time where I could not sit at my computer for more than 45 minutes, maybe an hour at a time, without my shoulder fucking killing me.
01:00I just couldn't do it at all. And lately I've been doing that, I've gotten back to streaming and stuff, as always with me as to all say hello.
01:09Hello.
01:10So, yeah. But I've gotten back to streaming and stuff, and I got back to editing.
01:16And the PlayStation 2 video that I promised you guys a long time ago is almost done.
01:24I have edited all my parts.
01:27Indy has edited all of his.
01:30I have a contribution from one person that is also contributing something.
01:37And I am just waiting on a contribution from two other people, and then I can just record some gameplay footage for those two, and string it all together, and call it a day.
02:01It'll be done.
02:02I'm going to have to do...
02:05I've recorded everything off of console so far.
02:10For the PlayStation...
02:11For Grand Theft Auto 3, one of the games I'm talking about is Grand Theft Auto 3, I had to record off of an Xbox.
02:17Because I don't have my PlayStation 2 copy anymore, and I only have it on Xbox.
02:27Did you get the invite?
02:28No, it hasn't showed up.
02:32Oh, here we go again.
02:34Oh, great. Why is it always like this?
02:37I sent it another one.
02:41Is it an in-game invite, or is it like a Steam invite?
02:45Good question.
02:46Okay, campaigns.
02:47Payne's.
02:55Halo 2 anniversary.
03:02There, I sent a...
03:04Why does it always do this?
03:11What did we do last time to fix it?
03:12What, like, restart the game or something?
03:15I don't remember.
03:17Because I think I did it.
03:18I remember it working after one of us restarted.
03:22I remember the first time we tried to play this.
03:25You didn't have it installed, so we had to wait.
03:28Sit around and wait for it to install before we could...
03:31I cut out a ton of stuff in that first recording session because of that.
03:36Okay, I'm gonna restart the fucking game.
03:47And see if that helps.
03:49I will too, just in case.
03:50Did you see Deus Ex is getting remastered?
04:05Yeah, but...
04:06Did you see, like, how some of the textures look?
04:09Yeah, there's a lot of people that aren't happy about it.
04:13I am happy, at least in some sense, because it's coming to console again.
04:20And it hasn't had a console release since...
04:25The PS2 was the only console Deus Ex got released on.
04:30So it'll come to modern consoles, it'll find a new audience, and I'm happy for that.
04:35And...
04:35Yeah.
04:35The writing and world-building and all that stuff will still be great.
04:41Okay.
04:42And it's still relevant.
04:43Yeah.
04:44As always.
04:45As ever.
04:45Yeah, that game is red-pilled as fuck.
04:48It's ahead of its time.
04:50It really is.
04:58Just look up Deus Ex red pills, and you'll find a video of it just dropping a bunch of them.
05:03And you'll be like, yeah, all that's still relevant.
05:14Okay, did you get the invite that time?
05:18Nope.
05:19What the fuck?
05:20Try sending me one.
05:21How's it?
05:24Let's see.
05:27Okay, I pressed it, but it didn't do anything on my screen.
05:31Did you get anything?
05:32Yeah.
05:34Okay, good.
05:42There.
05:44There.
05:45Okay.
05:48Okay, so...
05:50It should be what?
05:50Gravemind?
05:52Where we're at?
05:55It says I'm played on mine, so...
05:57That sounds right.
05:59I think we were at Gravemind.
06:00I think we had just reached Gravemind, because we got the cutscene where it's the Gravemind
06:07talking to...
06:09Chief and...
06:10Oh, that's right, yeah.
06:18Yeah, we got that, right?
06:20Yeah, I remember that.
06:21Okay, then, yeah.
06:23I think it's Gravemind.
06:24Gee, I wonder why you didn't get my invite.
06:32That's weird.
06:34Yeah, I don't know.
06:34It's really random how it works.
06:40Yeah.
06:41When we played that level...
06:49There was a couple songs.
06:51Oh, did you know that the...
06:52The guitar on the Halo theme on this game was played by Steve Vai?
07:02Oh, yeah.
07:03That's awesome, right?
07:09I don't...
07:10Marty O'Donnell has talked about how they got him in, but I don't remember off the top
07:16of my head how they got Steve Vai to come in and record it.
07:22I think he was working with Devin Townsend at the time, wasn't he?
07:29Maybe.
07:37Or, I think I'm probably more accurate to say Devin Townsend was working with him.
07:44Although Devin was doing, um...
07:48Strapping Young Lad back then.
07:50I fucking missed that band.
07:52I don't think I listened to them before.
07:57Maybe like a song or two.
07:58Listen to Strapping Young Lad.
08:00They're fucking awesome.
08:01They're heavy as shit.
08:02Oh, yeah, this is the first.
08:22What is that?
08:24The Gravevine!
08:25I...
08:25I...
08:26I...
08:27I am a monument...
08:29to all your sins.
08:39I've played this a few times.
08:43Relax.
08:44I'd rather not piss this thing off.
08:46Demon.
08:50This one is...
08:52Getting Keith Damon to do the armor.
08:54There wasn't some fire.
08:56And has its mind concluded.
09:00I'd say.
09:00This one is but flesh and faith.
09:06And is the more to do good.
09:09Kill me or release me, Parasite.
09:12But do not waste my time with talk.
09:15There is much talk.
09:16And I had listened.
09:20Through rock and metal and time.
09:25Now I shall talk.
09:27It's cooler on the remastered version.
09:29I will say.
09:30It's...
09:30It's gorgeous, isn't it?
09:32It looks so fu...
09:33Like, they did such...
09:34Lurie did such a good job with the cutscenes.
09:37And I am the prophet of regret.
09:41Counsel of those...
09:42High...
09:43Hierarch of the Covenant.
09:44A reclaimer?
09:46Here?
09:47At last.
09:48We have much to do.
09:50This facility must be activated if we are to control this outbreak.
09:53Stay where you are.
09:55Nothing can be done until my sermon is complete.
09:59Not true.
10:01This installation has a successful utilization record of 1.2 trillion simulated in one actual.
10:06It is ready to fire on demand.
10:08Of all the objects our lords left behind,
10:12There are none so worthless as these oracles.
10:17They know nothing of the great journey.
10:20And you know nothing about containment.
10:22You have demonstrated complete disregard for even the most basic protocols.
10:26This one's containment is the same.
10:29And this one's great journey are the same.
10:35Your prophets have promised you freedom from a doomed existence.
10:43But you will find no salvation on this ring.
10:47Those who built this place knew what they want.
10:53Do not mistake their intent.
10:56For all will perish as they did before.
11:01This thing is right.
11:04Halo is a weapon.
11:05Your prophets are making a big mistake.
11:07Your ignorance already destroyed one of the sacred rings, demon.
11:11It shall not harm another.
11:13If you will not hear the truth, then I will show it to you.
11:19There is still time to stop the key from turning.
11:25But first it must be found.
11:28You will search one likely spot.
11:31You will search another.
11:35Fate hath us meet as foes.
11:38But this ring will make us brothers.
11:45And we teleport.
11:53You know what's going to be weird, I think, maybe for you, is going from this to Halo 3.
12:00Because with the updated graphics, this looks a lot better than Halo 3.
12:05The release of the parasite was unexpected, unfortunate.
12:08I bet.
12:09There is no need to panic.
12:11In truth, this is a time to rejoice.
12:14Good old 360.
12:15A moment that all the Covenant should savor.
12:17For the sacred icon has been found.
12:20With it, our path is clear.
12:22Our entry into the divine beyond guaranteed.
12:26I miss when it looked like when the 360 first came out in 05.
12:30It looked so lifelike at the time.
12:33When you go back and look at the early games now.
12:39That was a good scene.
12:41Kill the demon!
12:50Oh shit, okay.
12:51Brutes!
12:53The faster you can kill those brutes, the better.
12:57Alright, we got the first.
12:59Okay.
12:59Oh, that's right.
13:02Yeah, we started playing this, but then we got to the first checkpoint and called it, I think.
13:05I remember this now.
13:06Oh, yeah.
13:12Sorry, bud.
13:13The, uh, my bot's not turned on, because I, when I'm recording, I don't have it turned on.
13:19Okay, what are we going to do?
13:33I just got to play a hordes, I think.
13:36Oh, there's more.
13:37Okay.
13:38Where'd you go?
13:38Are you still using Windows 10?
13:48I am not.
13:50Well, my laptop is, because it's not, I can't upgrade from my laptop for some fucking reason.
13:57Well.
13:57But, my P, my gaming PC is on Windows 11.
14:04Oh.
14:05Yeah, I signed up for the ESU program.
14:09Which, I mean, it's free, thank God.
14:11Oh my God.
14:15So I got it for another year.
14:16I swear they look like Wookiees in this version.
14:28Yeah, they kind of do, actually.
14:30Now that you mention it.
14:36Yeah, because I got the fucking, like, bandolier thing and everything.
14:39Yeah.
14:41Probably an inspiration.
14:43Oh, yeah.
14:44I mean, everybody fucking likes Halo.
14:46Or, uh, Star Wars.
14:48At least the original trilogy.
14:49Everybody likes the original trilogy.
14:52Fans can just universally agree that the original trilogy, good.
14:56Very, very good.
14:59Prequels, okay.
15:02Kind of, for the most part.
15:03Like, just not, not the Phantom Menace.
15:07Yeah.
15:08Even though a lot of people are going back and, I mean, especially after the sequel trilogy,
15:12people are going back, looking at the prequels and giving it, like, a second chance, I think.
15:16Get people going, I mean, it was boring, but, the last Jedi is the last Jedi.
15:26Yeah.
15:27Yeah.
15:28And Rise of Skywalker is the Rise of Skywalker.
15:31Rise of Skywalker, I would rather watch than the last Jedi, and I don't necessarily mean that as a compliment.
15:37I'd rather watch anything than the last Jedi, because it's just so fucking long and stupid.
15:44Like, I just cannot sit there for two and a half hours and watch it.
15:47I watched it twice and that's it.
15:49Rise of Skywalker is actually longer, it just, but it doesn't fucking feel it.
15:54It doesn't, yeah.
15:55That's one thing I'll say about Rise of Skywalker, is, like, it doesn't, like, I don't feel like walking out of, like, the theater, or, just walking out in general, like, or turning it off.
16:08Not, like, uh, Last Jedi.
16:10You, even though, like, I don't really, I don't like Rise of Skywalker either, but.
16:17Yeah, I'm not, I'm not, I am not, I am not going to fucking open Rise of Skywalker, but, I would rather watch it than the last Jedi.
16:25It's, it's, it's an entertaining, I would call it an entertaining train wreck.
16:30An entertaining train wreck is still a train wreck.
16:34Like, what the fuck just happened?
16:36Yeah, those things are, yeah, those things are really deadly.
16:39When they, when they charge at you?
16:41Oh, yeah.
16:42I just got killed by them, like, a little bit ago.
16:45Yeah, they'll do that, and eventually we're going to get to the point where they're doing it in narrow hallways.
16:52Oh, that's nice.
16:54Yeah, I complained about that in my, uh, review of it, of this game.
16:59I was like, yeah, they, they charge at you in narrow hallways, and it's, like, really annoying when they do.
17:11The music, the music's fucking great.
17:18I like how when you switch to the, the remastered version, it's just, like, louder.
17:23Yeah, they, it sounds like it's pretty much the same.
17:25They did remaster the music for this as well.
17:29Oh, shit.
17:36Because I'm playing on the original graphics for this.
17:41Truth is moving through the lower levels of the tower.
17:45I'll reverse this graph lift.
17:46Drop down, try to cut him off.
17:50Yeah.
17:52The original does look good.
17:55For, I, I, I, I, I think it's,
17:59the lighting that makes a lot of the, uh, textures look off, though.
18:08Yeah.
18:11Because it was supposed to, it was supposed to have stencil shadows.
18:16If you know what those are.
18:24I'm not sure.
18:24Like, like, you remember how, uh, in the, uh, mid-20, uh, like, 2005, 2006, 2007, you'd get PC games, whatever, with very precise, inky black shadows.
18:44Uh, for everything.
18:45Yeah.
18:46Yeah.
18:47Yeah.
18:48Yeah.
18:49Those were stencil shadows.
18:50And, artistically, they look really, really nice.
18:55This, this was supposed to have, uh, that, and I, if I remember right, they couldn't get it to work.
19:04On, uh, on, uh, on console, so they scrapped it.
19:12And it, kind of just leaves, I wish I had known about this when I reviewed it, because I could have talked about why the graphics look the way they do, in more detail.
19:23But, it leaves the, uh, lighting not looking as good as it should.
19:35That's not a problem in the, uh, with the, with the new graphics, though.
19:40They're just fucking gorgeous.
19:45Wait a minute.
19:46I'm reading marine IFF transponders.
19:49The signals are originating somewhere below your position.
19:53Alright, let's go save some marines.
19:55Alright, let's go save some marines.
20:03That guy's behind us.
20:19Boom.
20:20Yeah, yeah, see what I mean when they charge at you?
20:21Oh shit.
20:23In narrow hallways?
20:24Goddamn.
20:25Yeah, that.
20:26That's what just happened.
20:35They, they, they ease off on that in the third game, thank god.
20:42I'm sure that's fun on Legendary.
20:43Oh my god.
20:44Legendary in this game flat out sucks.
20:45And the only way to get the skulls in this game was to do it on Legendary.
20:56Which I did do, and it took me forever because I didn't even beat the, beat the levels on Legendary.
21:10I just got the skulls.
21:12And it still took me forever because, um, uh, largely because of Jackal Snipers.
21:26There were rooms that I would enter and get sniped immediately.
21:29That's what we do here.
21:30And then I would, uh, restart and enter the room and get sniped and just over and over and over again.
21:46Alright, let's go down.
21:47A long fucking way.
21:49There are two groups of Marines in this detention block.
21:50I'll zero their location.
21:51You neutralize the guards.
21:52Quietly.
21:53Fuck off, Bot.
22:10their location. You neutralize the guards. Quietly.
22:14Fuck off, bot.
22:18There's a bot in chat.
22:22Come pay for people
22:26for views. No. No, I'm not
22:30gonna do that. Go fuck yourself.
22:34Hello.
22:38Torch cracked down on that.
22:42They refuse to ban
22:44Hassan Piker, despite the fact
22:46that he breaks
22:48the rules repeatedly
22:50and tortures his dog.
22:52Yeah. Poor dog.
22:54Yeah, really.
22:56I mean,
22:58the memes are funny, I gotta admit.
23:00I don't know.
23:04Especially the AI one where the
23:06dogs shocking him.
23:08Yeah.
23:10Dog goes all Palpatine on his ass.
23:12Smoking great.
23:14That's what AI is meant for right there.
23:18Yep.
23:20Careful of the guards.
23:22That and making people,
23:24making
23:26like dead people sing
23:28different songs.
23:32Yeah.
23:34Making Martin Luther King Jr. do stand-up.
23:38Yeah.
23:40There was, uh,
23:42there was one
23:44that was, uh,
23:50uh, what the, uh,
23:52Adolf Hitler's singing,
23:54what is that,
23:56what's that M&M song?
23:57I don't remember.
23:58Oh, guess who's back.
24:02Oh, guess who's back.
24:04Oh, yeah.
24:05Yeah.
24:06Of course.
24:08I'm just gonna say,
24:10uh, the line,
24:12I'm a revolutionary,
24:14my revolution is scary,
24:16hits different.
24:17What is Hitler saying?
24:18Oh my god, yeah.
24:20Funny as hell, though.
24:26I can't deny that.
24:28Oh, there, oh, there he is.
24:32Listen up, Marines.
24:34The Chief of Letters will happen.
24:36And you're gonna help him kill it.
24:38From it.
24:40Like a grenade launcher.
24:42One more group of Marines to go.
24:44Yep, we got it.
24:45That's the Brute Shot.
24:46Brute Shot's cool as shit.
24:48Okay, there should be one more down below us, I think.
24:52Chief, come to the lower level.
24:54More guards, get ready.
24:58That is the wrong one.
25:02There we go.
25:09Oh god.
25:11What the fuck?
25:13I can't use my-
25:14Oh my god, get away from me!
25:18Oh!
25:19Oh, he killed me!
25:24Yeah.
25:25Yeah.
25:26At least it's auto-saves.
25:27Do you see why I don't like the charging brutes?
25:29Yeah.
25:30I'm trying to take him out, up here.
25:34Alright.
25:35It's hard to hit him with a grenade launcher, though.
25:45Alright, let's go down.
25:47Nope.
25:48Not today, bitch.
26:02Grenade!
26:03Grenade!
26:04Grenade!
26:05Grenade!
26:06Grenade!
26:34Thanks.
26:34That's all of the marines, chief.
26:36Good work.
26:37Okay, we got all the marines.
26:39Cool.
26:48We'll get out of here the same way we came in.
26:51The central grab list.
26:53The brute got him right there.
27:06How do you ammo for the other one?
27:08Hey!
27:09Don't attack me!
