That would be amazing in Halo 2's engine.

I can't think of bigger waste of time. I want bungie to spend their time making new games I've never played before...

Just the opposite, they sold the rights to pretty much everything but Marathon. Myth/Oni to Take 2, and Halo to Microsoft. They kept Marathon, not sure about Pathways into darkness.

Err... Not quite. They did release the source code for a few games so they could be added onto by the gaming community. Or something 'round that nature.

Edit: Char covered the bases pretty well.

I'd like to have a few new Bungie games aswell, but I wouldn't fight Marathon with a graphic overhaul for the XBox. It'd let much more of the community in on another part of the Halo-ish story.

And it'd be interesting to go from pixelation to bump mapping.

Edit: Would you look at that... I had twins. Twin posts that is. Sorry about that one.

They don't have the rights to Myth or Oni, anymore.
