Exactly how can you say that it would make good business sense when all you have is an untrustworthy forum poll which states that YES, almost all of the hardcore fans of the game will like it?
I'm not sure about the cost of production, but only a programming team would be needed. Everything else is done. If they have access to the Halo PC code, much of the programming work is already done. Also, the hardcore fan base could be exploited for large amounts of money, or if they'd rather charge a reasonable price for it, it would be more accessible to the non-hardcore fans. It could likely ride on the Halo 3 hype if they wanted it to.
There's no evidence that says that more than a few people (all of which are here on these forum anyway) will pay for this.
That is incorrect. None of the people I personally know who still play, are in this forum. None. Some people just play the game, rather than talking about it. Plus, this forum isn't exactly conspicuous.
And we Aren't Asking for Gold or Diamonds here, We're simply asking for a copy and paste, and for what? the chance to play one of our ALL TIME FAVORITE games On XBL, with a centralized location for us, "the consumers" to find one another. Its unfair In my eyes that Everyone playing Halo 2 can still go on with there lives pretending that Halo 3 never even came out. But for me, a Halo:CE Junky; My Halo:CE Days Died Nov. 9 2004, when everyone left XBC to play on XBL and Who's to blame them. All we are asking for is the chance to have a community once again for us Die hard Halo:CE fans. I think they did it right the first time and Raped the game since then. and wish that I had a place to go to see all of my halo 1 friends and play together without using a tunnel program that isn't widely known or used.
(yes its known about here on these forums but Out in the world I doubt the average Halo fan even knows what a tunnel program is.
"Oh tunnel program? You mean XBL right?".....-no.)
And Like I've said in past threads and posts as has SentientGiraffe, for just the chance to have that Community back weather small or Large,significant or not. I would Pay out the ass. if they had an asking price of 500$ for Halo:CE on XBL I prolly wouldn't have it on the release date. but I guarantee that it would be in my hands by the end of the month.
