Summary

SeveralHalo 2players online have spent minutes completing a hilariously random activity, after pushing the bus into the ocean on the multiplayer map Headlong. ThisHalo 2moment had many gamers reminiscing about the good old days of the franchise’s past.

Over the years,Halo’s sandbox has become a huge selling point for the series. It gives players the freedom to do all kinds of wacky things, with the gameplay itself managing to create a strong feeling that anything can happen at any time. This was the case all the way back inHalo: Combat Evolved, and has remained true up to the most recent installment,Halo Infinite. TheHalosandbox just has a habit of naturally creating awesome moments, which can result in the best gaming memories. Earlier this year, oneHalo Infiniteplayer shared a clip featuring a “lore-accurate Spartan” moment, showing it’s just nostalgia for the older games creating these moments, either.

Redditor crowbar_k shared the five-minute clip, in which they and their friends use severalHaloWarthogsto push the bus on the multiplayer map Headlong into the ocean. There’s no good reason for them to do this. It’s a case of doing it because they can, a throwback to the early days ofHalo 2, where goofing off with friends was the most fun players could have. One gamer in the thread asked if the bus floats, as they wanted to see “if you could stand on it like it was raft.” Sadly, crowbar_k responded with an image of the bus at the bottom of the ocean, confirming it sinks instantly.

The thread was filled with players nostalgic about theHalo 2days, with one player describing the bus situation as “the most Halo thing I’ve seen in a long time.” Another gamer summed up what people love about it so perfectly: “just messing around in multiplayer getting to places you weren’t supposed to get to and doing things the devs never thought you would do.” Anyone who played years ago has their own memories of playing around on thebestHalomapsdoing silly stuff, and it’s a feeling that many believe the series is still chasing to achieve.

The most recent game in the series,Halo Infinite, is not far off celebrating its 3rd anniversary. While it continues to receive new updates from 343 Industries on a regular basis, there is no concrete news on any sequel to the game. It seems that earlier this year,Halo 7got a new lead designer, offering some hope that the developer will soon have news on that front, with the game remaining unannounced at the moment.
