you wouldn't be able to get double kills, unless they're sneak attacks. They would have to take health away

Ok so the Medals would be taken away because its Halo 1. You can't expect Bungie to entirely revamp Halo 1. The poll is for if you think they should re-release it for XBL play

Its just a thought that crept into my head: What if Bungie released an updated version of Halo 1 with an Xbox Live feature? It would be fun to play with the old maps and weapons. Like a retrospect.

Won't happen ever. It would totally blow if they did. Bad idea.

That's all I have to say. Too many threads on this subject.

id buy it for xbl. halo ce> halo pc btw.

The one thing people forget when they say that Halo 1 on Xbox Live would be the best game ever, and that Halo 2 would suffer from it, is that what made Halo 1 so great for alot of people is because they could only play with their friends. They'd get a party going, and link up on Halo 1 because it was all they could do. With Halo 2 on Xbox Live, you could now play by yourself with anyone in the world.

What would make Halo 1 any different from Halo 2. Now you'd be playing with random people from around the world and without a proper ranking structure games would be full of pros and new players. There would be cheaters, just like in Halo 2, and most importantly, the thing that makes everyone feel that Halo 1 is so great - the social aspect would be gone. Unless people frequently lan Halo 2 as well to compare to atmosphere, I feel that's the one thing people tend to forget to include when they go off about how much better Halo 1 would be on Xbox Live than Halo 2.

It'd be similar to the way Halo PC works. I still find Halo PC fun, but the social aspect of it is practically nonexistant.

Of course it is better - Halo PC was a horrible port, but still a fun game.

Fight to the Finish!

This is funny I just left the Halo 3 forum and decided to post this same thing. (without the poll) Guess you beat me to it!

If it happened I would buy it. Will it happen probably not. If it did that would be awesome.

  • 07.17.2007 11:57 PM PDT

I like me.

Maybe, just maybe, if they put the Halo universe aside for a while, or maybe (*sob*) forever, It'd be a great goodbye to all of the fans.

They could just not change ANYTHING, just add XBL play, and i'm sure people will love it.

god

The thing that bothers me most about this is that bungie has to know that it would sell. Either as a multiplayer only arcade download with matchmaking, and voice chat, or on a disc as the full game plus previous mentioned features.

I am not a game maker, but it seems obvious that they could make this work, and they could contract it out to someone else to do if they truly don't have the resources free themselves.

I mean think about it halo 1 on arcade......It would be the number 1 arcade download if it existed. Dare I say it could even be a system seller for some.

(Bungie > 343i)

No because you can download a program called xboxconnect that connect you to other people for free, Just go to system link and it will link people play halo online

Halo PC is in no way a proper substitute for true Xbox Live-enabled play in Halo.

It may not be, but it's the only true online Halo

  • 07.19.2007 1:07 PM PDT

god

Xbc, xlink, gamespy, etc all have the same problems. Most important I can't get 16 xboxs to play....Only 4. If I had to invite 3 friends over, and then get 3 other people who had 3 friends ready I am just as well to host a lan party at home. Everyone knows it sucks, and I have been on xlink for 3 years now. I have played halo 1 on all the tunnel services, and to be honest it sucks, lag, no v.c., no matchmaking, no freakin fun.

You can say bungie isn't going to do it, you can say halo pc, you can say its a waste of time......But please stop saying xbc, and xlink because lets just face the fact it sucks to play halo 1 without the above mentioned options online.

Doc: "i'm a pacifist"
Caboose: "your a thing that babies suck on?"
Tucker: "no dude, that's a pedephile"
Church: "tucker, i think he means a pacifier"

i say no. i personally think that halo1 was the better game between 1 and 2. however i don't think the multiplayer belongs on line. simply put it would need to undergo some changes to balance it out for online play, and honesly i don't want there to be any. i'd rather it not be messed with ever again then have them change it and throw it online. let it fade into the pantheon of great games that go out in style as always remember classics. don't tarnish it.

Anyone from E.D.S.S? If so heres a link to the recruiting page http://www.bungie.net/Forums/posts.aspx?postID=12927166

  • 07.21.2007 5:13 PM PDT

I Hate You.

What would you rather though? Halo 3 or a re-release of Halo 1 just for XBL?

It's better than halo 2 and if it had the same graphics and tecknology as halo 3, it would be better than that to! Definitly! I can't get xbc to work and I need a better graphics card for halo pc so I have no way to playu with other people! That shouls be bungie's next projet. Halo xbl!
