Subject: Halo: Combat Evolved Platinum Hits

I went into Best Buy,and I saw that they had Halo Combat Evolved Platinum Hits. It doesn't have live support or achievements. WTF? I already have the game of the year copy. What's the point of buying this?

Re releasing it for people that are new to the series or just don't own a copy? That would just be my guess, though. They do that with the older games, though, don't they? Sort of like Sony's Greatest Hits or whatever.

Apparently, what you say makes too much sense.

It was actually a joke. Perhaps that wasn't as obvious as I had intended it to be.

I bought it online because I didn't want to take my time rummaging through all my games just to play a LAN party

Oh, I had no idea you were the OP until I bothered to look to the left side of the screen. It's funny now. Haha.

An interesting quip I just noticed: This is the 10,000th thread of the Library. Congrats!

Lol, was that sarcasm aimed at me or the OP?

Your response was true, and it made sense. I'm assuming it was at me.

Thanks! I don't know if I would've noticed that.
