Wait, doesn't Halo CE work for the 360? I don't even have an xbox anymore and when I played halo on my 360, it worked fine. I don't see why we have to buy it again.


So we can play multiplayer, over Live!

I like me.

I believe Microsoft already did confirm it, but I don't remember where.

WIll it have Achievements? And Online? Otherwise its not worth 1200 points. I saw it used at gamestop for 8 bucks.

  • 11.13.2007 4:14 PM PDT

That rain-walk-candace-bj-creepy mexican-chocolate liquor thing was one of the best nights ever in world history.

Well considering the multiplayer part is already there from what Gearbox did on the PC version....now they just to recode it over but hey if they don't then I would have to say its gonna be one of the most EPIC FAIL's on the Xbox 360.

halo 3 would literally be out the window if halo ce came to live.

my god i'd be so freaking happy.

  • 11.13.2007 4:30 PM PDT

Halo 1>Halo 2>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >>>>>>>>>>Halo 3

Want to hear a funny joke? Marijuana prohibition.

Oh god i hope so. I would pay twice as much as it costs to download if it means i can play online.

Take into consideration that an even older game of bungies was given multiplayer over xbox live when released into the arcade (marathon). Why wouldnt they do it for halo 1? Possibly their most popular game.

because it would take away a huge chunk out of the halo 3 community.

they are afraid to face the truth..... halo 3 multiplayer stinks.

It's pretty bad when the only fun game in it is a racing variant of the game... I really do like Rocket Race... the rest of H3 is a bore-fest.

So I think Jun's a master chef, because he takes off his helmet and your like whoa, I think he's a chef.

So to shorten this up, Jun is master chef.

Go to Xbox.com. It got confirmed.

Where on Xbox does is say Halo CE will support MP online?

  • 11.13.2007 9:58 PM PDT

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.

It doesn't say. Also, I just posted a topic that seems to point that it won't be in there.

Looks like we will *never* get this now. :(

Got it... that sucks. Bungie and MS fail again. :( What a ripoff... you pay $15 for a $5 game... they say sometimes truth is stranger than fiction... ain't that the case.

If you add the cost of the space used up on the HDD of 2.89% of a 120GB HDD at $160 plus 7% tax... add almost another $5 to your price... so it's basically costing you $20 for a game with no new features or content... which you can go get locally or over the internet for sub $5. Than add in the fact you won't have a hard copy. This is some strange stuff.

Yeah I really don't understand the excitement about this.

- You will pay more for the game than you would at the store
- It will take up your hard disk space (a lot of it too)
- You will not have a tangible copy of the game

What the heck is the point of this???

I'd love to be a 10 year old and tell my mom I'm going on an adventure out into the world catching Pokemon, with her full support. Never mind the fact that there are rapists, criminals, and murders out there, or the fact that I may get killed by a Pokemon.

Luckily I have Pikachu.

It's for Xbox 360 owners who don't own the games.

I am 99% sure it will not have online MP. It's like an XBLA title, just bigger. They're just going to add achievements, not make a sweeping overhaul of the MP, which from my understanding is what would be necessary to get it to work over XBL.

Its online for PC, why not 360.

  • 11.14.2007 12:01 AM PDT

Here is all the information that I could find about it on xbox.com. It looks like everything is going to be exactly the same as when the game first came out. I'm not going to spend the money for a game that I already have, and can play by putting in a CD. It does work on my 360, so why download it and waste the space on my hard drive? I don't care about the acheivements they may or may not put in, I play the game just to play the game.

No kidding? Really??? Thanks for pointing that out.

So again I'll ask. What is the point if I can buy a physical copy of the exact same game cheaper?

If they wanted to make the 360 version have xbox live mulitplayer, someone would probably have to put some work into adding it. It appears that what they are offering is just a image of the original disc. They're not going to go through all the work that would be required to add xbox live multiplayer.

Please! XBL MP for Halo 1 would own so hard.

@ Mako Marauder

you said
"H3- Borefest"
Got it... that sucks. Bungie and MS fail again. :( What a ripoff... you pay $15 for a $5 game... they say sometimes truth is stranger than fiction... ain't that the case...

I say:
how on earth would a 6 year old game even compare in multiplayer to halo 3? are you on medication?
dont buy it if you think its a ripp off, some people did'nt get it first time around so where's the ripp off?
and if you think halo 3 is a bore fest stop playing it, (which i see you have'nt) and move to viva pinata forums where im sure you'll fit in
Get a life bro
i dont often post but man you got issues..
