Something pretty simple but that I think works very well, at the end credits, at the very end, when there's something in the lines of "...and a special thanks, To You".

I also thought that newer Halo games aren't as good as the old ones, simply because in Halo 3 and Reach, the game said "Welcome!" in the beginning of the online matches. I was, like, thank you, happy to be here.
