Halo 1 being developed with HD graphics does sound tantalizing, and I certainly wouldn't pass the opportunity the play it. However, I am desperate to see the continuation of John's story following Halo 3. Therefore, a Halo 4 announcement by 343 Industries, would be much more appreciated.
Consider this: a Halo CE remake is the perfect way for 343i to test themselves. You have a source material ready to go, yet you get to delve into a new engine, play with it, build a multiplayer community and overall ensure what you're testing yourself for is ready to go for the REAL treat: Halo 4.
You're true in the sense that a Halo 1 HD remake would provide the perfect staging ground for 343 Industries to test their talent and experience, and see how the community responds to their work.
However, simply remaking a video game that was released nearly ten years ago, does not add to the lore and fiction of the Halo universe. So, from a story perspective, I'd definitely feel more inclined to see a Halo 4 announcement.
You are right though, in terms building a higher-quality product. The Halo 1 HD remake could certainly lead to a better designed, and better executed Halo 4.
I know it does not add more to the Lore, however there are also suprisingly a lot of people that haven't played Halo 1, this could be a fresh new experience for them, as well as a fresh new outlook for people like us who played Halo 1. It makes sense fir them to make a remake; plus all of the hints at it make it seem like a no brainer.
