Deliver Hope (Halo Reach)
In the Halo games, Reach is a planet where the Human-Covenant war went from bad to worse. It was where heroes made their last stand and hope was lost. Playing as one of the Spartans on the planet during its final days, you’re a replacement for one who died earlier, and the “Deliver Hope” trailer shows how that went down. Soft music juxtaposes nicely with the imagery of war as Kat runs through gunfire armed with a fusion bomb to take out a Covenant battlecruiser before getting critically injured. With the device armed, Thom grabs it and flies up to deliver the payload. He isn’t lucky enough to get out before it detonates, and his sacrifice has made the remaining members of Noble Team very wary of you. Like Carter says at the start of the game, the lone wolf stuff stays behind.
