This rumor has already been straight denied in an interview. The only thing 343 is working on now is Halo 4.
I didn't like HL2 campaign that much. Meh.
A man can dream.
[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;36653036]Well, after Halo 4, it would be a nice thing to see. The remake of the first Halo could have been much better imo. They sacrificed quality and flexibility with the remake for that shitty gimmick of being able to switch between the classic and remastered versions. As a result, they had to stick with the 2001 code which made a lot of things, especially the animations on the characters look like broken shit. Hopefully if they do a remake for Halo 2, it'll be 1000 times better than their remake of Halo: CE. [editline]6th July 2012[/editline] Hell I think they did more of a 'remastered' thing with Halo 1 rather than a full remake. (Which is really what I was looking foward too. But still, something is better than nothing.)[/QUOTE] It could've been a LOT worse.

And tbh, there's nothing wrong with that.
[QUOTE=Woovie;36653252]I didn't like HL2 campaign that much. Meh.[/QUOTE] What about Halo 2's campaign?
What a waste of artistic potential.
[QUOTE=kapin_krunch;36653346]What about Halo 2's campaign?[/QUOTE] o u put a typo huhuuh
Considering Halo 2 was probably my favorite out of them all, I'd love to see this.
if this happens I want it for pc, oh so badly.
Can't wait for Halo 3 anniversary.
Cant wait for the Halo 1 Anniversary Anniversary
I loved Halo 2's campaign, I'd love a remake.
I didn't have the best experience with Halo 2 as I played it on PC when Microsoft was trying that cheap ploy of only making it work on Vista. I played it on XP, you had to fool the game into thinking you were on Vista which took a while but the game ran perfectly. Fuck Microsoft.
I want Halo 2 Anniversary, they better [b]KEEP[/b] the fucking multiplayer.
[QUOTE=LoLWaT?;36653764]If they do a remake I just hope they leave the soundtrack alone. Or atleast give us the option to keep the original one like CE: Anniversary. The music in Halo 2 was the best.[/QUOTE] They give you the option to use the old sound track for Halo Anniversary. The remastered sound track did suck, though.
What makes it so bad? Sounded fine to me...
[QUOTE=TheLolrus;36654174]What makes it so bad? Sounded fine to me...[/QUOTE] Well, to be honest, it wasn't that it was BAD as it was that it was unnecessary. The original sound track was good the way it was, there was no need to update it.
Only thing I didn't like about CE:A was the netcode for coop. Granted it was across the Atlantic but you'd think they would at least make aiming clientside.
Halo 2 was by far the weakest game in the series. It doesn't help that Bungie pissed away almost half their development time fucking around with an E3 demo.

[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;36657930]Halo 2 was by far the weakest game in the series.

[QUOTE=Janus Vesta;36657930]Halo 2 was by far the weakest game in the series. It doesn't help that Bungie pissed away almost half their development time fucking around with an E3 demo.[/QUOTE] I personally thought it had both the best Multiplayer and arguably Campaign(gameplay wise).
i feel like some things should just be left alone
i would enjoy this, Halo 2 on the xbox had more texture pop-in than it had textures. it was a valiant effort to remove loading times, but it still was very annoying.
[QUOTE=GordonGman;36653887]I want Halo 2 Anniversary, they better [b]KEEP[/b] the fucking multiplayer.[/QUOTE] Expect no separate multiplayer from any Halo remasters. The goal is not to fracture the community. Instead, gametypes for Halo 4 (in this case, likely Halo 5) are to be expected.
I'm just waiting for Halo 4 anniversary edition personally. [editline]7th July 2012[/editline] Hope they announce it at next years E3.
I've never felt bad about the Halo series. My only complaint is the crosshair has been moved down abit from Halo 2.
I honestly don't like how companies are deliberately not including backwards compatibility and then rereleasing old games from the previous system for full price.
