Subject: Opinions on Halo CE and 2 remake?

Since Xbox Live doesn't support Xbox original games anymore I would like to see a remake of CE with online multiplayer and Halo 2 remakes with maybe enhanced gameplay as well, what is everyone else's opinion on this subject?

I like this idea but I think they would have to be careful how they do it. one of the biggest feelings I got while playing CE was the sense of mystery and intrique. Halo was a fascinating place to explore for the first time but now we've seen it, in CE and Halo 2 and we have the Ark in halo 3. I think they could remake CE exactly like it was and it wouldn't be as good because the sense of wonder is gone, you know what halo is, you know what the Flood are already, theres no mystery left. i think people would complain about a remake being bad, not because it is, but because it can just never compare to the first time you played Halo.

Best reply I've ever read about a remake, I couldn't agree more

I think the remakes would be ok as a mini cannon game, as long as it doesn't interfere with newer projects like H4.

They could also add terminals like they did in 3 to add more mystery.

I think remakes of Halo CE and 2 would be good, but usually remakes of games are not as great as the originals (with certain exceptions), I would rather see them on the marketplace.

Only way I would support a remake of a game was if they left everything alone and just updated the graphics. Which I don't think is even needed because Halo has a certain art style and even with non Reach level graphics the games still look nice.
