The game was never made with xbl in mind and would suffer severely from balance issues. While it is a great LAN game, lag would turn it into a mess. Imagine todays xbl host advantage with the pistol, games would be over before they started.

Yes but only with alot of legwork put in to balance it out. Not just Xbox live stuck on the end

I wouldn't care. How awesome would co-op be? And pwning hosts is always fun

If the managed to find a way around all the lag, I would buy it. I just don't like the fact that it would take that "classic" feeling out of the game.

Aaaaah, therin lies the issue however, "balance" it out and it is no longer Halo CE. This is the catch 22 that people don't consider when proposing this.

Yeah it would be fun to have the online coop for Halo 1. I thought it would be added when they announced the "downloadable" version for the 360.

I search but didn't find it yet: Anyone knows the exact reason why they wont add it as an update? Is it a technical problem with how the code is made or maybe just to much time consuming to do? I'm no expert on game coding but I guess merging the old Halo CE interface with the new XBL might be complicated...

Even Halo 2 doesn't support online coop so should be some reason like that I guess.

Please see the dozens of similar threads on this topic. Halo was coded and shipped with no net code as XBL did not exist at that time.

It would involve developing a new code for the game and for little reward in the end.

-blam!- Was that actually blammed out? Or did I just type it? You'll never know.

If they could sort out the possible issues with lag.

Stop making these topics.

Nah, There's no real reason to have XBL Multiplayer. Maybe to play on Some Classic Maps, but that's pretty much it.
The superior gameplay would also be nice.

Of course I'd buy it. Halo CE is so much funner than the Halo 2 and 3. If they fixed lag bugs, that's all it would need. No revamping of graphics or gameplay. Just make it xbl compatible. It would be freakin sweet!
