I'm not going to just say "BLAH BLAH BLAH they should remake it" or "Halo 1>2".

I am basing my argument to the fact that they are still selling Halo: Combat Evolved

Go into any gamestore, target, wal-fart, best buy, they are ALL still selling Halo 1.

Why?

Because there is still a market for it.
And this Halo 1 isnt excatly the same halo 1 we all bought when we first got our xboxs.

The Game Demos arent there, but in its place are preview videos and documenterys about Halo 2.

So obvoiusly, sometime in Halo 2 development they took out the normal Game Demos and put these videos on the disk
In addition, the image of the master chief on the beach on sidewinder, which is on the CD, is a mirror image (flipped) of the older cd.

I'm not asking for a "Remake", a "redo", or anything like that.
I want the normal version of Halo: CE that everybody has, Online enabled. Still sell it for the plaitnum hits $20 or add an extra $30 price tag to cover the cost of making the code for xbox live. It's NOT a remake, a Redo, or anything to cover for Halo 2, only something in addition to Halo 2. I LOVE halo 2, and I love halo 1 equally. I'm no Halo 2 basher nor Halo 1 basher. Halo 1=Halo 2 for me. It would be sweet to play Halo: CE on live. I'm not even asking for DLC or anything. Just a normal matchmaking, something Bungie wont have to manage (like they do Halo 2) so they can work on their next project. ANd no, i'm not trying to live in the past, because I do recognize that Bungie has to work on their next project (Halo 3 maybe?) so I'm not sure if they would have time to do this. However, I know that while gearbox did most of the stuff for Halo PC, Bungie still had a hand in it. I know you will probably all say, "We dont want to remake/revist the old game we need to look to the future!" I'm not suggesting a "remake". Only add an online feature. Then watch two of the top ten games on XBL be Halo 2 as well as Halo: CE.

It is the soldier, not the reporter, who has given us freedom of the press. It is the soldier, not the poet, who has given us freedom of speech. It is the soldier, not the campus organizer, who has given us the freedom to demonstrate. It is the soldier, not the lawyer, who has given us the right to a fair trial. And it is the soldier who salutes the flag, who serves the flag, whose coffin is draped in the flag that allows the protester to burn the flag.Father Dennis Edward O'Brien, USMC

Wait are you saying that the game disk from back in the day wouldbe different from one now?

Cuz i have halo from the month is came out and its glitchy.

Or its the same with minor differences?

I've heard about PC being called 'Custom Edition' but..my friend had the PC version a long time ago before he gave it away (At a contest he held) and I'm sure it says Combat volved O_o There's nothing custom about it, except in Multiplayer...where I heard you can do some spoody stuff with mods and such >_>.

The officially sanctioned names for Halo are;

* Halo - Xbox game (also called Halo 1)
* Halo PC - PC/Mac port of the same game
* Halo CE - Halo Custom Edition, a tuned PC version of Multiplayer that allows for user-created content (maps, weapons, vehicles, skins, etc.)
* Halo 2 - Xbox game, second in the series.

"Combat Evolved" was (I am told) a suffix that Bungie was told to come up with when it was theorized that the name "Halo" wasn't specific enough as to the type of game. It's a footnote on the name of the game but not the focus of the name.


huh...i never knew that

I (somewhat) understand why Bungie doesnt want to "revisit" an old game, but do you realize how many people who would buy an online enabled Halo 1? I'm not talking about the people on these forums, because obviously that doesnt account for everyone who has an Xbox. I know that in business you gotta make a profit, but considering that you guys are Still selling Halo 1 to this day, Is there any possibility for Bungie to give it to another company to re-write the netcode for Halo so it can play on live as you guys did with Gearbox?
