'''''Halo: Combat Evolved''''' (released on November 15, 2001) introduced the ''[[Halo]]'' series from relatively [[Humble Beginnings]]. Humanity has mostly been holding their ground against [[Scary Dogmatic Aliens|the Covenant]] for the last 25 years, and the game starts following a devastating defeat at a major Earth colony, Reach, and the crew of the warship the ''Pillar of Autumn''. The game opens [[In Medias Res]] as the warship comes under attack, and is forced to make a crash landing on a mysterious ring-shaped Covenant-worshiped megastructure known as Halo.
