I loved that map, I used to eternally hide on the map with my team and make the other team rage-quit. Also in my opinion the best game in the series, the overall gameplay, multiplayer, looks, custom maps and all the rest were just a giant step ahead of everything else in gaming at that point.
I've never played halo in my childhood or when it was released since I don't own an xbox. The only halo I've played is CE for pc. I didn't even finish the story since I am a lazy casual back then, but just this year my friends and I played some halo ce multiplayer and it plays awesome even though the graphics are dated.
I'm depressed that my friend convinced me to sell my 360 along with all of my games, so i could build my pc. Dont get me wrong, I love this thing. But Xbox exclusive games make me sad.
