Bah, still nothing that we didn't know already. I'm not very pleased with this series.

so the second half of origins, how humans expanded into the universe and started to fight not only the covenant, but also the flood

Meh. Same problems as the first part - too much exposition and not enough visual action.

Origins was interesting for me, because I didn't know the history of the Halo universe.
Visuals were nice and I liked the calm narrating (eng dub).

Hello its called "Origins" for a reason, what would you expect. This is like in the The Animatrix.

Wow for someone like me who has no clue about any of this, this was really interesting to watch! The art and animation were so beautiful.

except did a far better job at explaining its origins than this one did. they even used an almost similar scheme to do it too. oh well.

I don't play the Halo games, so I guess I needed to see this to understand other episodes. Otherwise, it was only okay.

weird how I never took any interest in the main campaign mode story (I played it with my friends at school) in halo yet I actually bothered watching this
I suppose the history of the watchamacallits was interesting but my memory of this has kinda gotten loose

The art was good, I learned some stuff.
It was really similar to that naration arc in animatrix. Same in many aspects.

Much like the first episode, this episode seemed more or less a set-up for Halo 4.

Why are people talking about two completely different episodes these last episodes? Did they re-release these episodes in another order?

Prototype features a particularly overpowered mech suit designed in the shape of Spartan armour. I bet this thing would be a nightmare in multiplayer matches.

Ghost defying orders to get shit done was cool. Can't fault him for it if it gets his squad out alive.

The DVD release has an altered episode order, which is why more recent posts may seem to be talking about completely different episodes. Makes me wish the threads had the full title of the episodes themselves.
