Beneath the Armor | Gaming's Greatest Hero Part 5 of 5
Twenty-five years ago, a PlayStation kid got a phone call.
"Dude."
"You've gotta come over this weekend."
"There's this game called Halo."
What followed were midnight releases, Mountain Dew-fueled LAN parties, Xbox Live friendships, Forge maps held together with duct tape and dreams, SWAT matches, custom games, Noble Six trauma, teabagging, Game Fuel, and twenty-five years spent carrying one universe around.
This isn't really an episode about Master Chief.
At least not entirely.
It's about Halo kids.
The people we used to be.
The friends we made.
The memories we still carry.
And why some stories never really leave us.
Welcome to the final chapter of Beneath The Armor.
Let's celebrate.
Episode 100 is coming.
And I want to know, how did you find AJN?
