Subject: Anniversary rated an 8.5??

8.5 for a reboxed game that uses the pre-existing multiplayer engine, Halo Reach, and the only real bonus is a couple of remade maps and the HD remaster of it's original campaign?

I say it's pretty damn fair, maybe a little high even as a vote for how "good" the game is. While it is, yes, nice to play, it has nothing to innovate over it's predecessors, and is pretty much just a map pack for Reach with a revamped campaign from the first Halo of it's series.

Still better than you.

.....most of you, at least.

This. All the Halo Fanboys going "DERP BUT IT R HALO ORIGINAL IT IS BEST GAEM EVAR" need to realise that all it is is a repackage, solely for nostalgia purposes.

If we were going to base the rating of of how nostalgia inducing it is, then yes, it would deserve 15 or something. But we aren't. So it get's 8.5, which is too high IMO.

Just point me at the enemy and stay out of my way.

Guess MW3 is still breaking weekly sales records and people would rather play something fresh ... and something all their friends are into.


fresh thats funny if you mean its a new game that thats shiny and have the COD label slabed on it then maybe but other wise COD is a copy and paste game with only a few new additions.

  • 11.18.2011 4:53 AM PDT

Only reason I ever picked up CoD was because all my friends were playing it. Still not a huge fan, but it's...tolerable, as long as one doesn't take it seriously as a competitive game.

Anyway, I'm genuinely surprised it scored an 8.5, I honestly expected lower.

Quit looking at the game realistically.

I give it a 10 for reminding me how much I love CE.

And a better playlist.

You only have to do 2 things:

Make babies and sandwiches. You chose to defile yourself with default.

And remember: men only have to do two things as well. Reproduce and insult women.

I do think women win out in that regard, bro.

Bite me.

And it's "sammiches". Get it right.


I chose to play with a few friends who aren't getting CEA until this weekend.

I'm nice like that.

Back on topic, I think that's a fair rating for CEA. I'm having a blast playing this game, and you can deny the touched-up engine looks gorgeous. Love the new maps too--got pumped up playing the reimagined Beaver Creek.

Nobody should be banned for honest and proper criticism/opinion, or banned under a double standard/bias. Please exercise and defend your constitutionally and naturally protected rights, such as freedom of speech and the ability to challenge unjustifiable rule enforcement, no one else will do it for you. Thank you.



If you want to tell me I'm wrong, please prepare to tell me with logic.

No, because games are rated based on a 1 (completely worthless) to 10 (completely perfect) scale should receive a legitimate rating. Halo: CEA had a great campaign. It was highly enjoyable. It was not "almost perfect" as a whole though and I'd give it about an 8.

Thinking with Portals since '07

Battlefield 3 sucks.

It is fair since it is just a remake.

Nope.

Drop the gender discussion you two, wouldya please?

Thats retarded, 8.5, they should just give it the same rating they give the OG Combat Evolved

I think a 9 would've been better. Most of the complaints were that it was too old. The purpose was to remake an old game you idiots!

  • 11.18.2011 6:37 AM PDT

IGN gave it a 8.0 and Gamespot who always review games lower than others gave it an 8.0. I say that's a pretty fair rating.

Why is hypocrite spelled with an E at the end?
The I in crite is not pronounce as eye.

So, on the one hand I spell it out exactly as it should be.
You follow the standard set before you by fools who can't even get a handle on the rules of their own language.

Are people still crying about this?

  • 11.18.2011 6:43 AM PDT

Thats fair for a remake.
