    		 They just announced and showed the trailers for the Halo 1 remake and Halo 4 which is the beginning of a new trilogy. Thoughts?

    Edit: Here's the trailer for the Halo 1 remake

          		 I'm looking forward to the Halo 1 remake more than the new trilogy. I don't think Halo 4, 5, 6 were needed, but I also guess it was inevitable since the games usually sell well and MS really has no other big first party franchise.

            		 Remember when Halo 3 was supposed to "Finish the Fight"?

              		 Halo 3 was a big disappointment but I still hold out hope for Halo 4.

                		 I dont think they will ever get better than Halo 1. Maybe this remake.

                      Yes, for the campaign, but the multiplayer is just Reach with remade Halo 1 maps.

                      Also, I just added links to the trailers in the first post.

                        That will be sweet then. I've been meaning to go back and play the first game again for a while. It was always my favorite.

                          		 I'm looking forward to the remake. I love retro stuff but even Halo 4 should be good.

                            They've already gotten blasted for having nothing but Halo pretty much every year. If the Halo 1 remake is garbage I think they'll really be hearing it from gamers. I doubt they'll screw the game up though. It takes real effort to mess up an already great game, it's not impossible but they'd have to do some incredibly stupid things like completely change the gameplay and have shit online. There's no way the online play will be shit so it's just a matter of making the necessary changes to the game for it to be accepted today without going too far and making it seem like something much different.

                                This year is a bit different though. One of the focal points of their presentation was not only a Halo game but a game that came out on the previous system. Is it deserving of a remake already?

                                While we are at it, the MS E3 presentation was laughable. The entire time I waited for Freddy Kruger to make an appearance because it had to be a bad dream. How else do you explain yesterday's presentation?

                                  		 I've done a lot of research on Halo Anniversary and here's what we know so far:

                                  - The game will be released on November 15, 2011, exactly 10 years to the day Halo: CE was released
                                  - Campaign graphics are completely re-done and in 1080p
                                  - No changes to gameplay in campaign at all, it will play and feel exactly as it did 10 years ago with one slight change...
                                  - The layout of the Library level has been SLIGHTLY changed to make it less annoying without being noticeable
                                  - At any time during the game, u can press a button to switch back to original Halo 1 graphics
                                  - There will be local and online co-op, it's unknown if it will be 4-player or not
                                  - Competitive multiplayer is in the Halo: Reach engine but with 7 remade Halo 1 and 2 maps
                                  - Confirmed maps include Damnation, Hang Em High, Beaver Creek, Infinity (From PC version), and Timberland (from PC)
                                  - The Blood Gulch multiplayer map is not in this game (WTF!)
                                  - There will be one firefight map which is taken from a Halo 1 campaign level
                                  - No, there are no new weapons and you can't pick up the sword
                                  - All the music and sound FX have been completely re-recorded faithfully to the originals
                                  - Voice overs have not changed at all, it's the same dub but remastered for surround sound
                                  - The game will have achievements, terminals, and easter eggs

                                  I will update this thread as info comes out.

                                    		 I'll think about Halo Anniversary, but I'm not sure about Halo 4. I don't have any Halo games but Halo Anniversary may be one of the first I get.

                                      		 The first Halo is the best of the series for sure, it's my favorite FPS of all time even. So since the anniversary is just the same game with better graphics, I'm sure it will rock.
