They changed the names though >.>

I want to hear what Ghosts of Reach sounds like.

Casper · November 11, 2014, 09:29:23 PM

Not bad, but the names are trash.

It's a remake, people would think there using the same musics because of the old names.

No, I know that, but the names aren't that good.
Like, they changed High Charity to Into the Belly of the Beast.
What kind of cliche noise is that?

SIEGE OF MADRIGAL'S BACK FUCKING HELL

I honestly preferred the most of the original songs though, which is weird considering how much I liked CEA's soundtrack. A lot of the original songs were mainly instrumental with some very soft background choir, but in a lot of these remixes it sounds like the insturments are just giving a background beat to some woman going "woooooohoooooohaaaaaahoooo."

Gungir mix, Breaking the Covenant and Impart were great though.

True, but at least the score is great.

9. This Glittering Band [18:47 - 21:19]

There you are.

Sigma617 · November 11, 2014, 11:39:04 PM

I actually prefer the original.

That's kind of dissapointing.

Wow, they fucked up all of my favorite songs.

They only one they improved was Heretic Hero, but even then it's only equivalent to the original.

Whoah there, Partner.

every single thing about Halo 2: A is exceptional except some of the tracks.

BaconShelf · November 12, 2014, 01:18:33 AM

Gungnir just sounds like when you hit the wrong buttons on guitar hero, and I wish they hadn't replaced Blow Me Away. The rest sounds cool though.

Jono · November 12, 2014, 02:30:23 AM

Which ones are Impend and Mombasa Suite?

The new Mjolnir Mix sounds like poop :/

Nevermind, I found Impend. Its called Impart and holy shit does it sound so amazing.

Luis · November 12, 2014, 03:02:35 PM

Then turn off the Remastered OST in the menus?

g💚jira · November 12, 2014, 09:50:36 PM

Much better than the CEA remasters. Tom Salta's heavy percussion works so well with H2 [especially with Leonidas Suite]. Librarian's Gift is pretty much everything I could ever want from a Flood track. That being said, I can't help but feel that Broken Gates pt. 1's choir is a bit too pronounced.

The one complaint I have is that Heavy Price Paid sounds like the song is literally crying in pain at how bad it is compared to the original, but other than that I love the album overall.

aMetroid · November 12, 2014, 10:08:27 PM

It's good, I just hate the flood level tracks(Sacred Icon and Quarantine Zone)

Mr. Admirals · November 12, 2014, 10:55:32 PM

Can someone please reverse cryptic whisper? I need to know if it says anything different.

A friend of mine said that it plays a reversed version of the Epilogue speech from Halo 4, but others say that there's some slight differences.

One thing's for sure: you have to speed it up as well, instead of just reverse it. So if aaaanyone wants to try, don't forget that

I tried to do it myself, but my editing skills suck ass so I was fumbling in the dark.

Makes sense if it's the Didact. Texture of the reversed voice sounds different.

Also, I beat H2A yesterday, and I forgot how badass ALL of the Gravemind's lines were in Halo 2. Especially when he hijacks High Charity's comm systems.

"You have the luxury of a quick death, while we have to evolve for an eternity!"

"Mercy is sitting right beside me, whispering his wisdom to me as always."
"We exist together now, two corpses, in one grave."

Like holy shit, Gravemind is absolutely terrifying and insidious in Halo 2. Having that perspective of the Forerunner Saga really drives home how absolutely horrible the Flood are.

"Your deaths will be instantaneous, while we shall suffer the progress of infinitude!"

All of Gravemind's lines in... High Charity are spectacular. In H2 I couldn't really take him seriously in Gravemind [the mission] because he looked silly.

H2A? Now that's the Gravemind from the H3 terminals/Forerunner Saga.

LOOK AT HIM

Let's also take a moment to appreciate the new grumbling sounds in Gravy's voice as well.

Mr. Admirals · November 12, 2014, 11:23:37 PM

Thank you for correcting my shitty memory. I love that line so much.

I love the Gravemind's lines where he "brags" about how much he's done or been through, because you know he's not bullshitting. If you pissed off a Gravemind by what you said or did, you REALLY fucked up.

Hearing the indirect back and forth Gravemind and Truth were having in Halo 2 really changes the scene in Halo 3 where the Gravemind begins to infect him.

Oh wait... Holy cow, I just noticed that the Gravemind infected all three Hierarchs...

Also, Gravy's new appearance makes Human Weaknesses make a bit more sense when Cortana expects the Gravemind to be slimy.

Indeed.

And it's even better when you realize that Gravemind didn't even care to Didact style corrupt the Covenant hierarchy. He knows what he really wants, and the Covies are dead to him already.
