Subject: This bothers me. (HALO ANNIVERSARY)

Why is 343 making an exact remake of the first halo? It was fun and we all have great memories of the game, but an exact remake with better graphics? You've got to be kidding me. If they're going to do that they should make it 20 bucks. The fact that you can press a button and see how it looked in the old one is showing that its the exact same game. We've all experienced the story and seen how great the original is so just add some random stuff. Maybe some new weapons, skulls, terminals, hilarious phrases from NPC's, etc. It already seems like a troll game to me. So if anyone has any ideas what they should add in please share your ideas. Here I'll start. I think they should add a very hard and secret way to finally get a golden warthog.

EDIT: Or if you think the game is mistake go ahead and post that too.

Actually, the feature which allows you to see the old graphics and then the updated graphics is pretty awesome. And you'll get to see the Flood in all it's glory.

Besides, it's $40, and it will include 7 new maps. Just saying, sounds like a good deal to me.

Brains beats brawn get used to it

Fear the Red Comet

Variety is the spice of life.
Long live games.
Death to all fanboys.

The campaign essentially is 20 bucks by itself. Combine the remade campaign experience with seven maps (keeping in mind that a pack of three maps are 10 dollars) for Reach and you get the 40 dollar price tag for Halo CEA.

Adding too many new things, particularly things that would change how the game plays such as weapons, defeats the purpose of having a spot on remake of the campaign.

We are all going to get banned aren't we?

Don't buy it then, simple as that.

Lore wise it is good because we get to see flood in HD not to mention this is the first halo game to have HD graphics.

This will be the only time you see me praise graphics, the textures in CE is what all the other halo games lack.

(7 new maps... see what they did there?) 7 new maps and a remade campaign is pretty cool. It would be nice to see some really hidden secrets (scarab gun).

Yes, I'm actually really curious to see how the Flood will look with Reach level graphics. Also, I hope the severed limbs don't roll on the ground like they did in Halo 3. I always thought that just looked silly.

"Nothing but the rain."
"Then grab your gun and bring in the cat."
"Boom, boom, boom!"

Maybe some new weapons, skulls, terminals, hilarious phrases from NPC's, etc.


OP is getting his wish.

The remake will have terminals. Supposed to tell the story of the ring I believe and have some hints towards Halo 4. All done in motion comic form too!

The game is supposed to have terminals that hint at the story of Halo 4, but I wish it had skulls also, they didn't in ODST / Reach and I miss finding them :(

Honestly, anything that was changed would only piss people off for being different from the original. They have a formula that works, they're going for it.

I dont see how having skulls that change the physics/weapons/gameplay/etc that can be turned on as pleased to change the game to something that can hold its own against even the newest Cod/etc...

  • 07.03.2011 2:19 AM PDT

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

To play or not to play....

$40 with a few new maps and a nice revamped Halo CE. Heck I can afford that. Besides I have a feeling Bungie might suprise us and sneak in a few new things within the game. But seriously though I would really like even an exact replica of the original game with new fancy graphics but I think we will see a bit more than that. I am betting they will have achievements for starters and with that there in is potential for new "things".

Oh and those people worried about things being changed. I would hate to see the story changes. But you don't need to change the whole things just add bit of spice to it. Maybe a few hidden things here and there or some extra detail in some places. Maybe improving the AI a little and perfection is close at hand :)

The game's going to have Terminals, which, this time, are told in video form, which is pretty cool. It's going to delve into the Halo lore, and provide hints to where the story is going in Halo 4. I, for one, am really looking forward to those. Oh, and I think Frankie hinted at skulls. He said something about giving the player more ways to play; which makes me instantly think of skulls. Achievements are there, as well. There's a lot more yet to be revealed at Halo Fest, this August. Anniversary's gonna be a nice package.

Motion Comics? Come on. I only enjoyed Halo 3's terminals because they were a good read. These new terminals sound retarded. "We the Forerunners have left ancient documents of our history in motion comic form. We know a good bit of you humans are probably illiterate idiots."

Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary will use Halo Reach's multiplayer. It will add 5 remade Halo CE maps, one Halo PC map and a firefight map.

I'm sure the dialogue won't be dumbed down, and there will be words used that perhaps you need a dictionary for. You're worried it'll lose it's sophistication, aren't you? Personally, I've always had a bit of a problem with reading large chunks of text off a screen. I'd rather read it in a book.

The fact that they're narrated by 343 Guilty Spark is pretty cool, and the visuals just allow them to convey more emotion. Let's wait and see how it turns out, eh.
