Frank O Conner has confirmed in a recent interview that included in the 7 multiplayer maps that will be released for Reach's engine. 1 will be firefight and 1 may be a Halo 2 map. 343 isn't remaking any maps that were priorly playable on the Xbox 360.

So the Halo 2 map included in Halo CE Anniv. WON'T be Ascension, Sanctuary or Ivory Tower.

What map would you like to see released? I'm thinking Waterworks :)

Halo 2 for Life!

Reach is nothing like halo 2. halo 2 maps on reach therefore = wrong.

Halo 2 MP is SEPARATE from Reach's and EVERY glitch from BxR to super jumping is still in.

Might as well throw in the ability to switch back and forth from old to new graphics with the old PTT button

I'll choose to ignore 343 blowing off the fact that game play leaves a greater impression of a map than graphics and just say that Waterworks could look fantastic on the reach engine.

So it won't be the map we knew in Halo 2 but it will at least look good...

As stated by Frankie, they're not going to have any maps that were ever featured on the 360 through Reach (Duh) or Halo 3. That means:

Zanzibar (Last Resort), Midship (Heretic), Ivory Tower (Reflection), Lockout (Blackout), Blood Gulch/Coagulation (Hemorrhage), Ascension (Pinnacle), and Sanctuary (Asylum) don't have a chance to be the map.

(Not counting maps that were already on CE) Burial Mounds, Colossus, Headlong, Wateworks, Foundation, Containment, Turf, Elongation, Gemini, Relic, Terminal, District (H2V), and Uplift (H2V) are the only possibilities.

Personally, I'm leaning towards Headlong being the map that's brought back. That's been the most popular map being asked to be brought back on the 343i forums as for what I've seen (Even before CEA was confirmed) so I'm willing to bet they're doing that.
