Ascend Hyperion | How The Halo Magnum Made a Comeback @AscendHyperion | Uploaded September 2020 | Updated October 2024, 1 day ago.
The Halo Magnum was once the king of the Halo sandbox, but by 2009 it was a shell of it's former glory. Halo Reach changed that. We discuss.

In this video, we discuss the epic revival of the halo magnum. A story about how Halo 2 and Halo 3 had left the magnum as the worst weapon in Halo and how 343 would turn it into the best weapon in Halo in Halo 5. The Halo magnum breakdown is interesting and unique and says much about Halo gameplay.
