Subject: 343 halo1 remake. (halo 2 instead please)

Go ahead and remake the graphics in halo 1, it was a great game. After, make sure you redo the graphics on halo 2 , BUT DONT CHANGE THE GAME! Leave BxR, double shots, BxB, and super bounces. Those are what made halo 2 the best one.

Halo 2 was my least favourite Halo game and it would be a massive waste of time remaking it.

Chill out, it's only an opinion it doesn't bite.

Lol at OP, for one thing a CE remake has never been confirmed. Infact it's been hinted against. Two, you want them to update the game graphics/engine, but leave it large glitches?

Bad, bad boy. That's the type of talk you use on the Reach forums, not Universe Forums. We try to be a bit more respectful here.

Personally I don't want remakes of either games. Graphically speaking it'd be cool, but the amount of complaints that would burst forth from newer generation players who expect gameplay similar to Reach but find it to be the mechanics from H2 would be substantial.

They're perfectly fine as they are and honestly, both games still boast great graphics for the day and time they were in. Honestly, there are still graphics from both games that I just stop and go, 'wow, they did a good job here..'


I honestly think the Remake of H1 is just a rumor and should be left at that. No need for these silly remakes.

I would love both with graphic enhancements only

I do agree that people would wine but the tons of people who played halo 2 would love it, especially since there is no more live for it.

rephrase: You obviously did not do very well in said game.

I think that'd be the only real selling point for a remake other than graphical reworkings- bringing the H1/H2 gameplay experience to Live. But then the question persists... is it really worth buying those titles again?

I've always enjoyed LAN parties moreso than just going out on live to fight random people myself in the older games... I wouldn't be as compelled to buy an H1/H2 remake just to play it on Live.

I like my original copies of the games and will continue to play them, remakes or not. Either way, I still think they aren't going to be remade.

I'm... just gonna say it now... I don't trust any of those sites for credibility. Especially joystiq. I'm not gonna bother looking for the confirmation to post on here, but Microsoft has denied the H1 remake.

Game Spy
Geek
Joystiq


Here's some more...

1up
Neowin

All those sites used Joystick as their confirmation and Joysticks reliability is questionable at best. And considering that their article about the remake is over two months old no one else had been able to confirm this themselves I'm calling it Bull-blam!-.

We'll find out this Fall. That is the only way to find out.


...Except for the fact Microsoft denied it I believe. The likelihood of them remaking any of the games is slim. Personally I'm still against it for the most part.

And Frankie+343 said it'd be incredibly lazy and unimaginative if they didn't add to the lore.

Bungie Pentathlon - who actually cares ?

Would I welcome a remake ? No, but would I play it ? Yes.

It will generate billions, and I mean billions of threads pitting groups of people who will be known as the purists against the reinventors...

I can see it now "thiz game sucks, you can't hold two guns or there aint no battle rifle innit"

In regards to the cheating - sorry I mean exploiting glitches, here is what Achronos had to say about it.

Achronos:

1. They're animation bugs. Fixing them could impact many many other systems, and it was deemed too risky to patch (initial efforts found a few immediate regressions).
2. They weren't put in there on purpose, don't be foolish.
3. They're cheating on Xbox Live. We don't ban for them because glitches of that nature can be reported by the feedback system. I don't care what MLG does, we don't sanction their gametypes, even though some of them think they should get to sanction ours.
4. Not everyone can use a button glitch - some localized versions of the game can't perform the glitch due to their display technology.
5. People suggesting otherwise are in danger of getting banned - advocating cheating is against the rules of this forum.

Granted, it will be overseen by 343, but I would hope they had the same set of thoughts regarding glitches.

I completely agree with you. I do not believe any of these internet gaming sites that talk about anonymous sources and rumors. When Microsoft or a developer announces it then and only then I will shed tears of sadness for the fate of one of my favorite game series about to be milked dry.

Every time I see a reply to a comment where someone says that they dislike a game or don't like it as much as another, the reply says that they sucked at it. So I am assuming every game you don't like that much you suck at. I did not suck at Halo 2. All I said was that it was my least favourite Halo game (which doesn't even mean I disliked it because all Halo games are awesome, it's just not as good as the others) and that I don't see any point in remaking it.
