I played halo 2 first, i view myself as a veteran. I played it when i was mature enough to make a judgement about a game rather than still being a 9 year old incapable of understanding gameplay mechanics and criticizing all who are old enough to realize what is flawed.

so you think.
some might have been capable. and no im not saying me, I only understood have of the halo 1 story back then. I asked my dad about a ton of things before just googling it all.
aaaand, not everything that you think is flawed other think is flawed. Like invisible walls....

Thats the thing about the Halo games, everyone has their own opinions about it, and no single Halo game will be perfect for every Halo fan.

I wasn't arguing with you, I was simply agreeing with your point of view on things.

Kidding bro. Library wasnt my favorite level, but it added some variation to the game's pacing.

Yeah, but one of the reasons I like it so much was because everyone else hates it and no one can beat it on Heroic, let alone Legendary. Personally, I'd have to say The Maw was my favorite.

The maw was pretty nice, i must say. Poor full hammer

That is one of the things I am looking forward to most with the Anniversary remake: the Warthog run to the Longsword. ^_^

The last time I played Halo: CE with a friend was the weekend before Halo 2's release. My friend Steven and I baked two family sized bags of french fries and played through the Halo: CE campaign on Legendary from The Pillar Of Autumn to The Maw. Ahh, those were the good ol' days.

Her name is Foe Hammer lol
I wish we could have seen her face, but ah well.
I wonder what if she had picked us up or lived...hmm.. I wonder a lot of things like...what if Chief took cortana with him to meet the flood, what if foe hammer picked him up after that level, or what if they used Truth and Reconciliation to blow up halo....hmm

Or if Major Silva and Lieutenant McKay had made it off Halo in the Truth And Reconciliation from the end of Halo: The Flood by William Dietz.
My friend Tony and I were talking, and we think it would be nice if they explained some of the gray areas in the story better, like how Keyes got captured (both by the Covenant and the Flood), what happened to Johnson after Jenkins' helmet cam, all the major "blanks" that were left in the story. Hopefully the Anniversary edition will have it.

I have the first 6: Fall of Reach, The Flood, First Strike, Ghosts of Onyx, Contact Harvest, and The Cole Protocol. I heard about a 7th book but haven't seen it anywhere.

But anyways, things like that that would expand the story and build it up that wouldn't have a negative impact on the original game. Even some extra explanitory cutscenes would be much liked.

Don't feel too bad. You can definitely find them at booksamillion. Ghosts of Onyx was amazing to me, and Contact Harvest was cool centered around Johnson, but there was no Spartan awesomeness and not as much action. Cole Protocol wasn't great but wasn't terrible, just not my favorite.

If you happen to know of a place to go and submit ideas or so to speak to 343i about CE Anniversary, please let me know. Maybe we can convince them to add more detail to the story and more cutscenes. Especially now since Johnson is much more of a character than just "black marine seargent" lol.

I'm serious. Go to Halo.wikia.com and you can learn everything there is to know about ANYTHING Halo. Like, did you know that the Master Chief's original look was the Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST helmet, but bungie thought the helmet made the Master Chief look too mean, so the artist developed the Mark V helmet. Thats one of the reasons I use the ODST helmet, that and it looks awesome and I love the ODSTs.

wow, no I didn't, that is interesting!
ODST's are awesome looking, especially in Halo 2 and their blue blue visors and dark camo pants

The ODSTs are so badass that Bungie gave them their own game. And Nathan Fillion is a badass (Buck). Every time I played through Halo 3's level The Ark, I did my damnedest, even so much as taking some undeserved hits, just to keep all my ODSTs alive.

They're like the badass Stormtroopers of Halo lol.

I am so gonna push the button for "Classic Mode" with the Anniversary release. You?


Anyone that wants to play the Classic would simply go play it. Halo: CE is still up on the computer. But I will be buying and playing the Classic option as well just to see how similar it is.
