Nah, he actually upgrades lol. His armor in 3 is the same as it is in 2 just more battle damaged.

Awesome, can't wait.

 

[GoldGoblin]

So its just better graphics,nothing new?

 

[Wolvieboy17]

I kinda don't like how Master Chief looks in this game. It still looks pretty blocky to me. It'd be nice if it looked more like the Mk V armour from Reach.

 

[Donut]

I am 50 / 50 on this game right now. The multiplayer is based off of Reach & the only other thing this game has going for it are the better graphics. So I am not sure

 

[Nathan]

I'm getting it, not now, but eventually. Simply because I want to complete my Halo collection.

 

[Wolvieboy17]

Yeah Nathan, that's probably the same thing I'll do. It's not a must have, go crazy for this release kinda game but just to have the original Halo that isn't outdated will be cool.

Do you guys reckon they'll even do Halo 2 again?

Halo 2 won't sell if it does not have its original multiplayer

 

[Boom]

The Halo 2 campaign was the weakest in the franchise, and the graphics are not so out-dated as to warrant a remake.

I see no reason for it, unless (as Donut said) they'd be willing to bring back its online multiplayer in its original form (which they would never do). I'd kill to play that again. It ****s all over Halo 3 and Halo Reach's.

 

[Master Chief]

Yeah, Halo 2 doesn't deserve a remake lol. I never even bothered playing through it more than once because the "ending" was so terrible.

 

[Wolvieboy17]

Why would they never bring back it's original multiplayer? That's what they've done with Halo Anni. edition. Sure it's Reach engine, but it's got all the original balancing etc from Halo 1. Why couldn't they do that with 2?

 

[Boom]

It's my understanding that the MP in Halo: Anniversary is just the Halo Reach MP with new maps. The only thing using Halo: CE's original gameplay mechanics is the campaign.

It's essentially like Halo: ODST.

 

[Master Chief]

There's gonna be a classic playlist with no AAs I think. All they really did with the Anniversary was update the campaign graphics and remake popular maps.

 

[Wolvieboy17]

No way, they've tweaked the hell out of the MP to restore all the original MP conditions... Things like how melee damage, health system works. Hell, they've even restored the magnum to it's original Halo 1 glory. 343 have been talking about this for ages! It only has the Reach engine from a graphical and technical viewpoint.

They talk about it at Halo.net, plenty of vidocs etc

 

[Master Chief]

Oh yeah lol, I forgot about the title update. I liked Reach the way it was though, now it's gonna be back to basics: Rifle or magnum. Yay.

 

[Donut]

I went ahead & got the Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary. With $45 in Amazon credit I got both Red vs. Blue Season 9 & Halo: Combat Evolved: Anniversary for only $10.98. I was not going to get the game. But I pretty much got it for free at this point

 

[tempt_the_devil]

So I haven't played Reach in a few months, I know, strange since it is my favourite first person shooter game. Anyways, I wanted to get back into it, but when I go to the Live Lobby all I can participate in is Red vs. Blue.

Any idea when or even if we can go back to getting 1 Player Slayer?

Quick Look: Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary

 

[Boom]

Five and a half hours until Headlong makes its triumphant return .

 

[Donut]

The Red vs. Blue finale just blew my mind

 

[Benstamania]

Won't be going to the midnight due to pictures tomorrow... but I'll have it later Tuesday afternoon (due to pictures tomorrow, lol) I finally get to go through the Library with a co-op buddy.

You won't fool me this time, Guilty Spark!

 

[CapedCrusader14]

In love with Anniversary ATM.

 

[Donut]

Hey guys if you played Reach & since multiplayer uses the Reach engine. Does your previous Reach character & stats cross over etc ?
