15 Best Moments in the Halo Series

GIVING THE COVENANT BACK THEIR BOMB (HALO 2)

Of course, Halo’s also always been full of moments of pure badassery- and this moment right here is the flag bearer for that group. The Master Chief grabs on to a massive bomb that’s counting down to zero, grabs on to it and throws it off a ship, flies through empty space, crashes the bomb into a huge Covenant vessel to completely obliterate it, and flies back to safety. And while he’s doing all that, you’re just sitting there and staring at your screen with your mouth hanging open. It’s a moment that every Halo fan will always remember, made even better in Halo 2: Anniversary thanks to its spectacular new cutscenes.
