You need a weapon?....You can find your own......

While most people will argue that 343 Industries is throwing away a perfect oppurtunity to repurpose classic Halo CE multiplayer for online play, I disagree. 343 has their reasons for not including the classic multiplayer in the remake (lag out the -blam!-, pistol whoring, vehicle handling, lack of customization, lack of maps and custom options to sustain an online community for more than a few months, ect.). Essentially, I've come to conclusion that the only logical thing to do at this point to cross my fingers and hope 343 can pull this one out so that I can not worry about Halo 4, because God knows I am right now!

Honestly, Halo 1 multiplayer would be awful to remake. Don't get me wrong, some things about it are good, but things like melee, vehicles, and half the maps really would need to be changed. And by changing that it'd screw up the single player.

Furthermore, you really don't want to create another mp to compete against reach, especially when Halo 4 is coming out in another year. It'd just be overkill.

I write poetry, I write short-stories, I listen to hip-hop (80s&90s), Reggae, Classic Rock n Roll, Heavy Metal, Jazz, Blues, and the 60s, 70s.

The reasons for no Halo:CE multiplayer is well theres alot, I'll just a few:
1) God Pistol, everyone would use it
2) Vehicles in Halo:CE could kill anyone (Yeah including Hunters) with a little bump.
3) Halo:CE over XBLConnect was real laggy, almost all the time
4) Etc.
5) Too epic for the 360


P.S. And I'm hoping Prisoner gets remade.

Why do people keep using the "god pistol" as a justification against an authentic MP remake? If you liked Halo CE multiplayer, however you played it, the pistol was a central element. If in 20 years they remake Halo 3, would you say "don't put that BR in there, its too OP"?

Sudika has a very good point. I agree.

I'm looking forward to it but I thought it was going to be 39.95.

What's up with walmart?

it is only 40, it has been confirmed just recently, wal mart probably needs to update it since they price all console games at 60.00
