This is my first FPS when I got the X Box a few years ago.It has had a huge role in my life with my friends,we would invite eachother all the time and play Halo together,Its the most beautiful game ever because of :
The story line
The music
The gameplay with the main characters,the marines,its just amazing!
The Pillar of Autumn
Halo's story begins with Captain Jacob Keyes, commander of the UNSC ship Pillar of Autumn, on the bridge of his ship as it is emerging from a faster-than-light jump through slipspace. The ship has just fled the Covenant invasion of the colony known as Reach, and following the Cole Protocol procedure that requires making randomized jumps to conceal the location of Earth, has arrived at a large ringworld structure situated at a LaGrange point between a large gas giant and its moon.
Keyes inquires with the onboard AI, named Cortana, who appears as a foot-high purple hologram of a young woman, about whether or not they have shaken their Covenant pursuers: it appears they have not. Keyes orders the crew to prepare for combat.
Crewmen elsewhere on the ship reviving John 117, the Master Chief, a SPARTAN II soldier wearing Mjolnir Mark V power armor, from a cryo chamber. After that, Covenant Elites break into the cryo control room, killing the crewmen, and you are instructed to go to the Bridge to meet with Captain Keyes. The crewman accompanying you is killed by an explosion, but between now and when you reach the Bridge for a second cutscene, you are largely safe from harm. You are weaponless, and while you walk past and through several battles between Grunts, Elites, and UNSC Marines, getting killed is hard if not impossible, and invisible walls separate you from most hostile units, so you can't get in much trouble.
When you arrive on the Bridge, Keyes gives you your first orders: you are to take the onboard AI, Cortana, with you and escape to the surface of the ringworld to prevent her from being destroyed or captured by the enemy. Keyes gives you an empty pistol.
You spend the rest of the level assisting Marines in repelling the Covenant boarders, that have attached their boarding craft to the docking points for the Pillar's escape capsules. After a brief detour through parts of the ship's maintenance accessways, you reach the last available escape capsule with a handful of Marines, and the pod launches towards the surface of the ringworld. On the way down, Cortana notes that Keyes is still onboard the Pillar of Autumn, and piloting the ship down on manual control.
Editor's Note:
There is a lot of background material about Reach, the genesis of the SPARTAN program and its creator, Dr. Halsey, as well as the other SPARTANs and the special mission for which the Master Chief, Captain Keyes, Cortana and the Pillar of Autumn were originally chosen in the novelization The Fall of Reach by Eric Nylund. While informative, it is not, strictly speaking, essential to understanding the plot of the game although it does lead to a greater appreciation for the detail that Bungie has put into the story. However, those events and details are outside the scope of this summary.
Oh,here is the Master Chief and his best friend,Sergeant Johnson :
