Just want to preface this by reminding everyone that this is the same site that originally reported the new CoD game would be set in WWI. But they owned up to their mistake, so I'll cut them some slack.

quote:

We'd heard rumors before that Microsoft was working on an anniversary Edition of Halo 2, but it looks like the scope of Master Chief's revival is going to be quite a bit larger on Xbox One. Sources report that HD versions of Halo 1 through Halo 4 are coming to Microsoft's latest console with a Master Chief Edition.

The collection is coming to "refresh audiences' memories" prior to the release of Halo 5, as reported by tech blog Engadget. No details were provided on whether the game would come out digitally or in a physical disc, nor what the expected frame-rate and resolution would be. However, it's unlikely that the game would also include side-stories like Halo: Reach and Halo: ODST.

The developer is also unconfirmed, but 343 Industries received help on the 2011 Anniversary Edtion of the original Halo from Saber Interactive. And in a previous story, a Microsoft representative mentioned that in the "fictitious world where [Halo 2 Aniversary Edition] existed ... it has to be just the multiplayer experience that we all found in that first Halo 2 game."

We reached out to Microsoft for response, but the company does not comment on rumors and speculation.

Not really sure why this was necessary.

He's making an observation. It's his opinion. It's also not very far fetched.

The Halo franchise is important to Microsoft, but to say that the XBone is really dependent on Halo is pretty asinine.

If that were true then the XBone would have launched with Halo available.

That's like saying the PS4 is really dependent on Killzone or The Show.

I wish I could white list this thread, because I'm just waiting for it.

Halo was huge for the original Xbox. It was a console seller. Later on Halo 2 did that same thing as I bought an Xbox because of how all my friends had Halo 2.

For Xbox360 I think the big seller before Halo 3 was Gears of War. It was a console seller.

Xbox One does not have that title yet. I think they expected Titanfall to be that title.



All of this to say that Halo may be the thing Microsoft and Xbox need to get this thing rolling.

That is the defining factor. If it is a Halo 2 remake with Halo 4 MP, it'll bust. If not, it'll turn out huge.

I've had a boner since reading this thread this morning. I want nothing more than to jump on H1's campaign before H2's MP.

For those in the know, how much Can they really improve the graphics with something like this? I ne'er got the remastered Halo on 360
