Subject: Will Halo CEA look good enough to get?

After seeing gameplay footage and all, would you guys say this is worth getting at $40 with the only changes in the campaign being the Terminals and the updated graphics matching that of Reach's. And the multiplayer,being Reach's,is a plus for me. I've never gotten to play the original and best so would this be a good pickup?

It is the best Halo campaign by far and that should be enough to warrant an immediate pick up.

Though I do understand if you want to wait around for a price drop. There is no 'real' rush for a rehashed campaign which has its MP based on Reach.

It's worth getting.

The thing is, Skyrim is coming out 4 days beforehand. I'm going to be playing that 24/7... so yeah.

YES! to live it all again with friends over live? wtf are you thinking. Plus the remakes of the original maps look dope.

RIP Halo 2: November 9, 2004-May 10, 2010
I was the 2nd to last person to get kicked off Halo 2, see the thread Here

It's more than worth it. 343 did a great job, I can't wait to play it.

I have spent the last ten years lost in deep space. If you are reading this message then please send a signal beacon.

If you haven't played the original then you should definitely buy Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary. However, if you are unsure whether to purchase the game then rent or borrow it.

The graphics are at least up on par with Halo Reach, and the campaign is definetly more fun than Halo Reach, also longer. 40 bucks for a fully remade game is absolutely OK compared to other games that just got scaled up into HD resolution.
