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.

Some of you are missing the fact that is is a PC game that has tracked those stats. Not everybody who bought Halo for PC got it because it is a Halo game, but because it is a PC FPS as well. Just because people buy it for PC, doesn't mean that they'll buy it for xbox - or that they should re-release it. Of course, people that wanted an online-enabled Halo 1 did buy Halo PC as a sort of substitute; some people waited for the port to play with a keyboard and mouse over the controller.
Also don't forget the fact that without major recoding, Halo can't be easily online-enabled.
And also, what's with everybody going crazy for an online-enabled Halo? I know Xbox-Live is easier, and better, but don't you think that if people really really REALLY wanted to play online, that they'd do their best to get XBC or other programs running?
XBC really doesn't cut it. I've played H:CE on XBC and it's quite laggy if you aren't host, and "don't rush the count!!". I'm glad programmers have made it possible but the performance stinks (not really XBC's fault) and setting it up for some can be quite a pain. Plus you need a computer on top of your console to find games. H:CE's netcode assumed LAN play, which is all it supported, so it is far from optimized for internet play, even if on a VLAN type deal like XBC.
Give us Halo PC on the xbox... net play, new maps, a few new weapons, no changes to the graphics, and that would be a top selling product, no doubt!
