Seriously, WTF.
Bungie, you KNOW people love Halo: CE.
You KNOW MLG was started from Halo: CE
You KNOW many, many, many gamers have asked you to bring back Halo: CE for online play.
So what do you do? Give us Halo: CE on xbox live arcade WITHOUT online capability?
WHY? WHAT IS THE POINT??? Who the hell is going to play Halo: CE by themselves when you can simply own the disk for a measly $10???
This is a straight up slap in the face to Halo: CE fans. Gosh Damnit.
Link showing a vast majority % of people who would NOT buy Halo: CE if it did NOT have Online multiplayer
Link showing a vast majority % of people who WOULD buy Halo: CE if it DID have online multiplayerHey, there are these things, they're called tags. Use these tags to place an emphasis on certain words INSTEAD of OBNOXIOUSLY capitalizing a certain word or phrase. You know how to use tags because you obviously know how to set links. Please use them.
Secondly, there are perfectly good reasons why there is no online multiplayer. There are plenty of people who played Halo 3 and never even touched the original. Yeah, they could go to a store or eBay and buy Combat Evolved for like five bucks, but making it a download over Xbox Live is far more convenient.
Thirdly, you mistake it for an Arcade title. Halo will be released as a downloadable Xbox Original, which is something different. That's like calling Tomb Raider: Anniversary an Xbox Live Arcade game just because it's a game you can download online, when it's different from that. Plus, "arcade" is not a fitting word of Halo, a full-fledged retail game.
