RIP Halo 2: November 9, 2004-May 10, 2010
I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

Actually, this would be great. I don't really trust 343 Industries to make a new Halo game, but if they just remade Halo CE, it would be harder for them to mess up.

This is new.

Instead of asking them to do it, you're asking us if we'd like it.

Oh teh noes!

Do something useful instead of just making more Halo for more profit. This way they make something people want and they make money. It's a win-win!

somewhere in the heavens...they are waiting. I love the Marathon Trilogy.
Halo CE will always be the best game in the Halo franchise. What a perfect game.

I'm not sure if I would like it...CE is such a classic, I fear too much would be changed and make it into a lesser game.

I've made it my life goal to never become too stressed. So if I appear to be doing nothing all the time and generally never working particularly hard on any task, that's my plan in action.

I'd be happier if the engine and physics were more stable, and with some High Def textures and particle effects would be very nice, however 343 probably have something like Halo 4 in mind.

I agree with this. It would be the true test to see if they can be faithful to the original.

Why are people saying yes?! 343 Industries is way different from Bungie. If they remade it, then it wouldn't be the same.

We could give them the chance maybe?

I'm not dead, I'm just MIA

well there is Halo CE for the 360, it's on the marketplace for 1000 MP, I agree, that if they did remake it they should make the physics better, like a splatter should require more than bumping the enemy player with the bumper.

Yeah, I guess it would be worth a try. What could go wrong?

That would be nice. EVERYTHING has to be the same though (except the graphics of course). But that would be pretty awesome.

If they are as good as Bungie at making video games, I would say why not?

Well we all know Bungie is the best at making Halo games, cause they made it first!

I dont think they should pass it to 343 at all

im pretty certain them trying to recreate a massive classic game would be alot easyier to muck up on than making a new 1

I like to think of myself as the easter bunny, leaving treats for people who actually read the thread.

I'd like that, but only if it were a purely graphical update.

  • 08.14.2010 5:53 PM PDT

I dont know what 343 is, but im guessing its a game developer... But if they made it a good version, YEAH!
The game was legendary, i still have my copy from way back, and yes, i do play it every know and then :)
It has some amazing levels on it, which would make amazing multiplayer maps if they DID pull it off.
But, no HALO will ever beat Combat Evolved, the game was an instant classic, and oh did it deliver. For its time, the graphics were outstanding, toped off with amazing gameplay, and a truly film worthy story-line :D

And yes, an updated HD version woud be nice too :)

wich is why they can change the physics, textures, and make AI a bit smarter

it would have nothing to do with story line, they can keep all the same voices as the original game, and no one gets hired other than the guys who are "reskining the game" as the call it in the world of computer games and then give AI a bigger more fuctional brain lol and possibly make Johnson not die so we dont have to relive the ending of halo 3 again... and again... and again...

  • 08.19.2010 5:43 AM PDT

*Sips tea*

I agree.

But, they could only up-res and change up the cinematic angles/animations.

NO new dialog.

NO new characters.

NO changes to the story or voice actors at ALL.

NO changes to the multiplayer balance/weapons.

Up-res. That's it.

  • 08.19.2010 6:04 PM PDT

well multiplayer they could change...

just throw in live and im happy

  • 08.20.2010 6:03 AM PDT

OMG YES. Do it! H1 is the great that started it all. We owe it to that game to give it HD and matchmaking love.

I suggest HD increase, live matchmaking, and a simple forge and theater would be great too, even maybe an option to make or download new maps multiplayer maps.

Don't mess with any mechanics, it just wouldn't be the same "Halo CE" if so.

I'm not going to lie to you, that's one of my life's dreams. Hell, they don't even need to make it HD (Though that would be epic), they could just re-release it for 360, making it fully compatible with XBL, and adding some new maps to it or something.

I'd actually be willing to pay $60 for a game I already own if this happened, but sadly, this is very unlikely.
