Take them out of matchmaking. Who cares if they were the most popular in Halo CE. Totally different game = totally different gameplay. If anything stop weighing them down so hard and make them come up less in matchmaking 1 out of 3 games is always on these 2 useless maps for matchmaking.

Uhh, any other reasons? You can't just say "They don't fit in, take them out" and expect anyone to do anything about it.

In my opinion, Tombstone isn't a very good map to be in matchmaking with how the spawns are. It seems like you'll always spawn on one side the entire game, so if someone gets in your spawn, they'll just keep killing you and your team over and over again.

Desolation is fine, I haven't had any moments that didn't happen on any other map in Halo 2 and it seems to fit in well.

I cannot stand Desolation. The map layout is just awkward. Tombstone is good for 1 flag ctf but other than that it isn't worth it.

I loved Hang 'Em High. It was my favorite Halo:CE map, but Tombstone just has a different feel to it.

This is a funny argument, because when the maps were first released everyone was complaining that they were not in matchmaking.

New maps sounded good at the time but man they are a thorn in my side now
