Inside the Mind of Halotitan Help me get expand my mind.

I don't want to play a game online when the two games behind it are better.

Well that's nice, obviously it doesn't apply to halo though.

it would be cool if after halo 3 came out and everyone had been playing it for a while, and then bungie tells us that halo 1 can now go on xbox live...... that would be cool because i love all of the classic maps on halo 1

I'm just wondering, GrungyChicken, and I mean no disrespect to you, but did you notice that there are like five threads or polls on this subject on just the first page of threads? Seriously, this topic is over-done, like burned steak.

The steak is gone, turned to ashes, all blown away by everybody screaming for an Xbox-Live Halo.

People stop! There's a reason Bungie is advancing the multiplayer aspect of the Halo's!

Has everything to do with halo, I don't want to play Halo CE online when Halo 2 and Halo 3 already have better features. I would rather them bring the old maps back than the old game with the old gameplay. You can disagree if you'd like but I'm entitled to my opinions just as you are.

Blah blah blah...I'm tired of hearing you. It is a classic game. It was the best Halo games Bungie made out of all of them. Well that is also my opinion.

I never said it wasn't a classic, and your allowed to think that halo CE is the best of the trilogy and i'm allowed to disagree. I don't care if your tired of hearing me, your just mad because, OMG, someone doesn't agree with you. Don't start a thread and then get "tired" of hearing other peoples opinions if you can't handle them.

I would but only if there was a way to make it online-enabled quickly with no hassle to Bungie. I don't want them to waste their time on it. Xbox Connect works just fine for me as it is.

Look I love Halo CE, its a great game and I would probably try it online at least if it came with that feature. But that has to be with the copy I already own of the game, I don't want to pay 60 for a brand new modified copy of a game I already have, I'll just stick to the PC version of the game.

Yes. That is just like the XBL but local. Good Idea.

Of course you are. But we’re not comparing features, as we’re talking about features that don’t exist – an online component for Halo CE. You can only compare gameplay, and let me tell you right now that Halo 2 is not objectively better than Halo 1 in that department. Some people prefer the gameplay of 2 and some that of 1. If halo 1 had online I would play it and halo 2 side by side, sometimes one and sometimes the other.

I just take issue with the concept of a sequel being automatically better than it’s predecessor, that’s the way it should happen but it often doesn’t.

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.

That is *SUCH* a good point. New != better in every instance. I'll never understand that mentality. It applies to things other than video games too, the quality of things like furniture, appliances, and cars sometimes were way better in the past than they are now. H1 is way better than H2 IMO and I'm hoping that Bungie redeems themselves w/ Halo 3.

Halo CE was almost perfect IMO, it was just missing netplay. If bungie releases a version like that I'd buy it in a heartbeat and even pay whatever price (well within reason of course) they were asking...
