Because the original is perfect.

Nothing could convince me to waste time and money on a crap remake with Reach additions added to it.

Either the original poster is a weak troll, or a misinformed idiot. Let me break it down for you..

>Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary
-Remastered Campaign GRAPHICS and SOUND. The Reach engine has no part in this game whatsoever, except in maybe sound, for the current Reach models seen in the trailers were all placeholders (for example, they changed the Assault Rifle and Magnum). Its gameplay is exactly the same thing. So it is literally a copy of the original, just all polished with 2011 graphics and audio, as well as the following: possible new secrets, new Skulls, Terminals containing new story in a visual format, no changes to any of the original glitches and easter eggs (in fact, they're improving some of the best Eggs), etc etc.

-$20.00 U.S. dollars right there.

>Multiplayer
-You get seven maps for the Reach engine. It is unknown whether they are fan-favourites from ONLY Halo 1, or Halo's 1, 2, and 3. Six of the maps are Multiplayer. One is a special Firefight map. 343 said this Firefight map will do something none of the previous have done before. 343 has also said that this Firefight map will be ripped from a memorable Halo CE level and refitted for Firefight. All seven of these maps will be available for download as DLC for the Reach disk. In Anniversary, when you choose the Multiplayer option in the main menu, it will bring you to Reach matchmaking, where you may only play a Halo CE-styled playlist featuring ONLY those seven maps.

-$10.00 U.S. dollars for 1 map pack.
-$10.00 more for a second pack.
-A special, and free, Firefight map.

---

Your Grand Total: $40.00 U.S. dollars.

That is a goddamned steal, my genuinely misinformed friend. Either you're blinded by your own false pride in a video game, or you're about as rich as my billionaire uncle who lives in the poor house.

hoepfully, That the firefight map is either the opening assault of the 'silent cartographer'. The other places would be a flood firefight that would be epic, the map will come from 'Assault on the Control Room' at the last where you have to fight up to the control room entrance.

its completely your choice, but if it makes you feel better, it has Halo: CE's exact gameplay, with reach's graphics engine, everything you remember is untouched, and if you don't like reach then stay in original mode on anniversary.

Fail. Move on people.
