Subject: The difference between Halo CE and CEA. Why you shouldn't buy CEA!

It's the prestige that makes the illusion.

Before you read: this is my opinion, i don't want to talk bad about Bungie, i respect the company for everything, they are the greatest but they have to know the truth.
No offence.

Well,
the only difference are the graphics.
Actually everybody could have known that the game would look
exactly the same as the original edition but i never expected that it would really BE the same as the original.
Every single detail, dynamics,... are all the same in CEA and that is very very very disappointing, i just don't understand why people would buy the game, it even doesn't have it's own Multiplayer.
You need Halo reach to play Multiplayer so it's not a CEA Multiplayer but an extra Map pack for Reach.
The game doesn't have Forge nor theater.

If you have Halo CE, i recommend to not buy Halo CEA because it's exactly the same as the original. You don't miss anything!

New Graphics? Don't make me laugh.
The graphics aren't so much better.
If i wouldn't know better, i would say that Reach has better graphics then CEA but that's impossible because it are the same graphics (strange)

+points: Nothing, it's the same as the original.
-points: No forge, no theater, no multiplayer, bad movement controls and dynamics.

Oppinion:
If CEA has the same graphics as reach, Bungie should have given it the same movement dynamics so that CEA could have it's own Multiplayer.
Even the back button that shows you the 'original' grapics aren't the same as the real original CE.

Audio?
What happened to the audio menu?
I would really like to listen to the remastered soundtrack during the game but i can't hear it because the sound are too loud, but i can't adjust the audio setting because there isn't an Audio menu.

What i think?
Bungie just insert a halo CE copy in a computer changed the graphics and then sold it again as thé REMAKE

And here's my reply to that.

BUNGIE DIDNT MAKE CEA.. 343i DID.

Your post is irrelevant.

The graphics give it a whole different feeling. It feels like a current generation game and a classic at the same time. The only downside is that the mechanics are exactly the same, which means one minute you're laughing at splatters and the next minute you're frustrated because vehicle boarding isn't in. But that's why it didn't have multiplayer; it's outdated and playing CE online would have been a disaster.

I don't consider CEA to be anything more than an awesome expansion pack for Reach. The anniversary gametypes are so enjoyable and the remastered Campaign IMO makes up for Reach's poorly delivered one.

I got my money's worth, unlike Reach.

Walk by faith. Dude. Not by sight.

CEA is great for people who love Halo CE and like going for achievements and finding skulls & terminals. Also, Grunt Funeral Skull for LOLz.

Let it go.

Isn't that the -blam!- point of a remake? They stated all along that they were keeping the gameplay the same. You're a -blam!- moron.

Again, YOU ARE A -blam!- IDIOT. Bungie didn't do the remake. I swear you kids don't pay attention to anything.

No. You don't. It has it built in on the CEA disc.

The point of the remake was to improve THE GRAPHICS. Not "fix" the games mechanics. Your post is irrelevant.

It seems that you're mad.

Understandable.

I would be mad too if I couldn't understand half of the words the other person was saying.

You are a very stupid person.

You're right. The first time you fire up HCEA, it even ASKS YOU if you would like to do this.

  • 11.16.2011 9:51 AM PDT

The maps on CE:A are greater than the Reach maps. Hang em High, Prisoner, Damnation, Break Neck, and Beaver Creek are so fun to play on. Break Neck may be the best BTB map ever.

Agreed. CEA is a remake not a new game. Now people can see how far Halo has come. Looking forward to Halo 4.

I seriously don't understand people sometimes. If you have been paying any attention to the gaming world (E3 anybody) then you would have known Bungie passed on Halo to 343i. You would have also known, that this game was supposed to be (and was billed as) a remake that had updated graphics, skulls, terminals, and kinect capabilities. They stated from the beginning that it was going to play the exact same, which includes the good (Huge levels, great gameplay as a whole, hard, etc.) and the bad (repeating level design, stupid allies, poor warthog controls).

I had sold my copy of CE when i sold my original Xbox. At the beginning of the year, I was looking for the original halo game, and heard that they were remaking it. The campaign alone is enough to buy it.

The multiplayer maps that are included are some of the best maps ever! I cannot wait to play them again. Having this game sell for almost half of what a normal new game costs is a steal! Best purchase EVER!

You forgot to add for those lucky to own a 3D TV have that extra feature.

Also graphics are like 80% better there not brilliant, but did you ever play the Orange Box with Half Life 2 that was the same.
