Or how about Firefight on several Halo 2 locations, New Mombasa, Cairo station (HQ that shit!) and all the other cool places you visit.

I remember the last level of Mombasa with the scarab battle and shit.
When you think about it, that little Marine base and the surrounding roads would be a great map. At least in my opinion.
I wonder if there is a way to convince 343i into doing a Halo2:A. Twitter bomb, or petition. Or something. Unless they are working on it already and they're keeping it quiet until it's near completion.

They said they weren't right now, simply stating "Busy on Halo 4". They refuse to comment on future plans or speculation or rumor.
But considering they didn't outright say "no fuck Halo 2"... Its quite possible, and probably after Halo 4's release (I'd assume either right after, or while Halo 5 is being made around 2013-2014, as 2014 is when Halo 2 will be 10 years old).
I'd say a petition and getting people active on the forums of both here and Waypoint would be best.
Normally I would stop posting these since some of you don't care, but is this guy right when he is saying Halo CE PC sold less than 100k copies? I can't find a single sales figure source.

He has some major fallacies either way. It shouldn't matter if people cry or moan, that has no impact on if it deserves a port or not. Halo PC was also released in 2003, Two (2) years after Halo CE in 2001.
In other words, there is a reason it sold less, hype and the fact everyone who wanted it, got it in 2001.
It also wouldn't hurt the Xbox version as yet again, 2003 vs 2001 and done by a different developer (Gearbox).
To say a port to PC would hurt the 360 or Halo 4 is insane and inane.
[QUOTE=Tuskin;37650578]The Prometheans were living at one point, maybe they've just been taken over by AI, hence the skull?
Reminds me of those suits from the Fallout New Vegas DLC.

I have a feeling they're similar to Guilty spark, in that they were once a being who were converted into AI and placed into these machines.
In that video Wolfkill states "they're not robots"
Or maybe she just meant that in their behavior that they dont act like what people think when they think robot.
I just watched the vidoc and noticed it was again mostly PR crap but I really liked the visuals for most things and I have to say my favourite part was: "We didn't want the Prometheans to come off monsters so we made them yell at you with a glowing red skull"
Honestly, Halo 2 deserved an HD remake better than Halo CE, simply for the fact that Halo 2 had so many visual bugs and errors while Halo CE had way less (granted, Bungie was rushed to make Halo 2 and it was more complex, but still). I wouldn't mind a Halo2A at all.

Yeah but I found Halo 2 to be better with all the bugs. I never encountered any at all in campaign but most of them actually made mutiplayer better and a lot more fun with things like BXR and BXB. The only thing I didn't like was super bouncing in matchmaking I hated those people.

Well I wasn't talking about gameplay bugs, but more about the visual ones. Because lets be honest, Halo 2 had a shitton of visual bugs and things that made it look worse that it could have been.

The only one I ever found was the screen burn (that's were you have the white outline from something else right?) and that's about all unless you count noticing all the textures being removed when you go into the Xbox live stuff.

The game had terrible texture pop, bad LOD transitions and that screen burn, just to name a few.
That vidoc got me so fucking pumped you don't even know
I love everything Bungie has ever made but i'm SERIOUSLY thinking that 343 is gonna rival Bungie's work on Halo in ONE game.
Anyways, still nothing on the flood, huh? It feels like it's been a while, haven't seen any flood since Halo Wars :(

It's really hard to rival a company that basically made everything for you.
That's what I've been debating, but they're definitely taking the series a lot further.
If they keep this up, they will have bypassed bungie by the end of the Forerunner trilogy imho

He's obviously talking about overall production value and quality of the game. 343 is sparing no expense with Halo.
i mean look at those visuals
oh man yes

Hey that's mean I was just saying they can only really surpass them with looks since most of the stuff in Halo 4 with the exception of the Prometheans and some guns were all in Bungie's games.

Halo CE Anniversary had horrible texture loading as well, so assuming it would be on that same engine, the problem wouldn't be fixed.
The leap from Reach to 4 technology wise is looking pretty huge
looks are like 1/4 of the game
also if they hold up to the whole humanization of chief and the whole cortana bullshit, that's a MAJOR development of the story which is like another 1/4
like i said, if this kind of work is done for the next 2 games in the trilogy, it'd bypass the original by quite a bit.
[QUOTE=Funky Pickle;37653661]Halo CE Anniversary had horrible texture loading as well, so assuming it would be on that same engine, the problem wouldn't be fixed.[/QUOTE]
That's true, but I had less problems with it there than I did on Halo 2. The original didn't really have this problem iirc, while the Anniversary edition did.

I didn't experience any bad texture loading. Are you sure it was an issue? Or perhaps you didn't install the game to your HDD? I usually install any game that I play often.

Nah, I didn't install it, never install any 360 games. I probably should have thought about that. [img]http://www.facepunch.com/fp/emoot/saddowns.gif[/img]

Well I don't know if that'll solve anything, just that I never noticed the issue.
