Your 'beliefs' mean less than dick to me.

No one says you have to play it.

For Carnage Apply Within - We played Marathon before Marathon was cool!

Keep it authentic...

I think it would be cool if 343 took ORIGINAL graphics gameplay glitches, everything and slapped Xbox 360 on the cover and gave us live for Halo 1 and 2.

Leave the physics alone (Except Grunts should move when you melee their dead bodies.


Instead of having them bleed all over the place? Heeeelllno.

Halo: Heretic or Hero---An Elite's Story
Choose your own destiny

Forged in the Flames of Passion, go forth and represent!

It would either be really good or really bad.

I suppose it does make sense, as Reach does lead into the Halo trilogy (specifically CE) and the two could flow together quite nicely, but if they're going to half-ass it and then come up with a lame excuse (IT'S JUST AN EXPANSION!!!), thus ruining the near-perfection that is already Halo 1, I'd rather them just leave it alone.

It would be interesting to see, though, so long as they make sure they have the Halo 1 Pistol...NOT the Reach pistol...and they generally do not change anything other than the Graphics, a little bit of level design (let's make the library enjoyable this time around, eh?) and perhaps add another handful of Multiplayer maps, in addition to the Halo CE classics.

Save Lives. Go Vegan.

Only thing I like about the idea is that it would probably have LIVE and CE doesn't. CE is perfect the way it is and Reach sucks.

I like Call of Duty and Gears of War, AND Halo. Why must everyone else like only one or the other?

I am completely skeptical and I'm sure those who grew up with [and might even still be playing, like me!] Combat Evolved, know there is no way they'll live up to the original; no remakes ever do.


I disagree with that last part. I thought the remake of Tomb Raider 1 in TR: Anniversary lived up pretty well to the original. But I do share your skepticism about a CE remake. However, I'd still hold out hope for a remake to be good.

  • 10.25.2010 6:48 AM PDT

My idea is that it would be the sequel to Halo Reach, which is a remake of Halo CE. The only thing different about it should be graphics.

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

Sorry guys, you will just have to stick to halo pc.

H1 will live forever in my heart, if nowhere else.

I would give up a testicle to make this happen provided they made every effort to re create every aspect of gameplay. The weapon physics, glitches, everything. Add custom options, firefight would be amazing(and CE has lots of great areas that would work amazingly in firefight as is), forge, and theater. The return of the TsK, so nice, I'd love it, and I'd pay full price for it.

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

This is really disappointing. I'll give it some time, though; you can never fully trust IGN. I'll keep checking for some more confirmation.

I absolutely want to see this happen.

As far as online play - they may need to simply allow over-the-internet system link games (like xboxconnect). With absolutely no ranking/matchmaking system. I say this because I've heard the programming was never meant to be played over the internets.

I think it would be rather good from the customer's perspective.
Even though Halo CE and Halo 2 were big, the amount of xbox owners became even larger with 360 and so on. So I doubt alot of the people that played Halo 3, ODST & Reach have played Halo CE & Halo 2. And now they are missing out on the story.

Sure they can buy the original xbox games and play on the 360, but most wont because of the outdated graphics(Vanity Hooo!).

They don't have to make a super huge big deal of it, don't think it would require that much to convert the games to the new engines. Ubisoft is doing something similar with Beyond Good & Evil and releasing it on Arcade, could do the same with this.
Save the money from Discs, boxes, shipping etc.

Frankly I wished they'd do it with a lot of old games from xbox.
Conker would be awesome, even though that already is a remake of a N64 game *grins*

Oh well, one can hope...

An HD remake of Halo 1 would be pointless... It would have to have a Custom Games Browser or some kind of XBL play for it to be worthy.

People need to start emphasizing this instead of assuming M$ knows what we're talking about.

  • 10.26.2010 1:12 PM PDT

I like it the way it is. Remaking it just won't be the same to me.

All it took was a stew of whoopass.

I'd just prefer an exact remake (no graphic change, no multiplayer, etc.) with just one small change: Achievements.

That's the thing, I want a remaster, not a remake. A remake would fail epically. An update, modification, or remaster to what's already been made is the only way to go with this.

An EXACT remake except with online support. That is all we need...

if any one is still here i would love this but i want talkig grunt back and the scarab gun

  • 10.29.2010 9:52 PM PDT

I wouldn't mind it. Just keep it the way it is, but give it Xbox Live support. Then I'll be set. Until then, my hunt for Halo PC continues.

If it is legit, it is gonna be big. If I had it my way, I would want everything but the graphics to remain the same. Weapons would remain the same, maps would be the same, etc. I would also see about incorporating a playlist in Reach called "Halo CE" in which you could play with those playing Halo CE HD matchmaking. If they could integrate that, it would be awesome. Also, they should include the original game on the disc, for those who want the true Halo experience.


imagine halo 1 with multiplayer! ( i know they had it on pc, i mean xbox)
