incoherent yet somehow beautiful saxophone noises
This game has probably the best atmosphere in any game I've played, and it stuns me how something so good can be on the same engine as Halo 3. Really. Somehow, the gunplay feels so much better in this than its predecessor. Also, this game probably has the best soundtrack out of every Halo, including Reach. Deference for Darkness is just so iconic, and pieces like Traffic Jam and NMPDHQ are pretty much constantly playing in my head. They're either the background music or just what I'm thinking about.
