I know with H3 right around the corner this idea should be reserved for later times but I just want to know what people think about it. What if Bungie and M$ made an Arcade version of CE's multiplayer portion? Not the campaign; just the 13-19 maps (if you want or don't want to include the PC additions) with the weapons and vehicle exactly as it was in Halo CE. It'd be so cool. Then you would be able to play your favorite version on XBL. I would totally be willing to sink $10-15 to get that. What do you guys think?


F that. I'd spend $50 for that!


so would i!

I didn't say consistent with 3SK; I said it wasn't hard. I told you I'm around maybe 4 and a half to 5 but. But you guys make it out like a 3SK is a once and a blue moon thing; it isn't.

if you play Halo: CE on the xbox getting a 3sk is pretty rare. that's why alot of people on here are assuming you don't play halo ce on the xbox very much at all. it takes alot of time and practice to become good at it. ALOT of time and practice. but that is the old days of video games. the new days are games where a 4 year old can put a controller in his hand and instantly become a pro. i would seriously pay anything for an xbl version of Halo: CE. that is by far the greatest game of all time.

Of course it isn't! It's just nowhere near as easy as you say it is to consistently pull off against other skilled players, however.

You just got Sarged.

Well then through my many moons of playing Halo, I guess I've never met a skilled Halo player.

Yea definitely man, Halo:CE has such awesome gameplay, but I've never really been able to play any decent multiplayer games on it, such a shame..this would be a good buisness move, with all the Halo fans out there, I doubt any one of them would pass this up.

  • 05.30.2007 5:38 AM PDT

Please Bungie, redeem yourself w/ Reach.
Halo 2 and 3 both stink out loud.
In the immortal words of Mr Horse: Halo 2? No sir, didn't like it.

Let me get this straight... a 3sk with the pistol is "rolling the dice"?

You need pretty dang good aim to hit a moving target in the head with the xbox controller.
Not sure where the luck is involved there. Halo 2 on the other hand... rock paper scissors.

Halo: CE > > Halo 3 > Halo: Reach = Halo 2

Well you are making it out to be wayyyyyy too easy to get a 3sk.

I'm a pretty damn good halo 1 mp player, excuse the bosting, and i'm lucky to get less then 1/4 3sk in pistol battles with other good players. That's a fact.

  • 06.03.2007 11:10 PM PDT

In high definition baby!

Get Halo for the PC, but I warn you, the netcode sucks at on the PC. Halo 2 Vista, I've heard, is better.

Alright, fine, it's been years and I havn't but bungie has left me with no other choice. I'll beg. Please oh god please give me halo 1 on XBL, XBC is laggy garbage (don't get me wrong I still play it). I would give you one of my testicles for this small favor, fine both of them, anything. Just please do it. It would make me the happiest halo player alive (I've been playing halo since November 2001)

I would give anything for Halo CE on XBL. I played it with friends when it 1st came out but I was so good (not bragging, just obsessed with Halo and played it all the time) everyone quit playing with me. I never got to go to a LAN party or anything and would kill to have Halo CE death matches again.

The "dice role" is when you throw a tun of people chaoticly into the center all at once. Whether it's with the Pistol or the BR, people are too busy focusing on one guy to know about the one to his right. Even good marksmen have a high chance of dying. Sure there are the truely inept that will be cannon foder, but while the "good" marksmen is focused on one, another will come up in his blind spot. It happens on CE; it happens on H2. That's my point.

Sorry to tick you off but (from MY experience; and I'm not claiming pro status) a 3SK is not a gift from God. It sure as hell isn't cake but it's not a rarity.

  • 06.05.2007 9:42 PM PDT

Let there be CHAOS!

I'm sorry but if you are 3sk'ing people fairly often in a game with horrible netcode and the mouse/keyboard feels akward to you... then you are fighting people who don't strafe and walk in a straight line. Either that or you are psychic and know exactly how a player is going to strafe and know exactly where to shoot each time.

hellz yeah I would get it, and quite frankly I don't think i'd ever play another video game besides it if it ever happened. As far as why it has not happened yet, I have absolutely no idea

It won't happen, it won't, it won't, IT WON'T! My god, how many times has this been said? What, is this the 8347534787653894 topic on this SAME SUBJECT?! STOP MAKING THESE POSTS! Bungie WILL NOT make Halo on XBL, so GIVE UP! Just stop! You wanna play online so badly, get on XBC as previously stated. Mods, please make a rule against all threads like this in this sub-forum, for the love of god and all that is good and beautiful, please!


Why not? The point is to express our desire to Bungie and thus show that there is a sizable population out there that really wants this product. Bungie wouldn't even have to do it in-house (since all that would have to be done is redoing the net code). If Bungie were a smart business, and I believe they are, then they would appreciate all this free marketing information.


Because Bungie has openly stated that it won't come to XBL. It won't happen, you can vote, and whine, and ask all you want, it won't happen. If you want to go and get permission from Bungie to re-code their entire game, and sell it, which they probably won't, shooting it down before you even get started working on it, go ahead. You will probably fail trying to re-code an entire game, and if you do make it work out, how many poeple will buy it? Will you make enough money from profits? Last time I checked, making a video game isn't cheap.

I'm partial to Halo: Combat Evolved. In fact, I think Halo 2 is awful, and I'd rather play Halo 1 campaign by myself than play Halo 2 on Live. I can't stand it.


But the good news is this:

You have to do alot to make a game play well online and to appeal to casual and skilled gamers. The problem with Halo 2 is that they tried to do this, but failed. I think they're getting it right with Halo 3.

So basically... for all those like me who long to play Halo: Combat Evolved on Xbox Live, I think your wish is going to come true- or at least, come as close to reality as possible. Halo 1 was designed for, at most, system link. When you have a game on the internet, though, you have to compensate for lag and all kinds of stuff. That's why it's insanely easy to play Halo 2. They made it easy for n00bs and for people with bad connections.

Halo 3 is better tuned, from what I've seen. I love Halo 3. But, still, I've only been playing Halo: CE recently. I just don't see anything else as being "real" Halo. I will play 3, and I will own at it.

I will not pay $100 for Halo 3 legendary pack but I would pay that for a Live version of Halo CE. If I tally everything I spent to be able to play on xbconnect it would be way more than that. Halo 2 sucked and I have no reason at all to buy Halo 3. Make Halo CE on Live happen Bungie!!!!!

No reason, eh?
Not even the story line's sake?
Some great fan you are, if you don't even pay attention to the main part of the game.
