With Sony now putting out HD collections of nearly everything, MK and Prince of Persia now also coming, how has Microsoft not announced the existence of a Halo HD collection? 
 
Is it just a matter of time, or is this really not going to happen? A HD collection of Halo and Halo 2 would sell millions right?

I've played them all and I'd buy it

Pretty much only CE and H2 need it...Although H3's graphics were already subpar at the time.

I would buy it. I would just want them to look better and for Halo 2 and 1 to have the same kind of multiplayer features as the newer games. They would fuck it up though and get rid of all the jank from Halo 2 multiplayer.

*Starts up Halo on the PC*
 
*1900x1200, bigger than 'full' HD*
 
I just blew all your minds.
 
*hopes nobody notices the HUD gets stretched horizontally at that resolution*

I'd buy the shit out of that.

Halo: CE with matchmaking would either be awesome or crush my heart like when I booted up Goldeneye a few weeks back.

What would be the difference between that and what we have now, meaning that since Halo and Halo 2 are emulated, they are put out a 720p by the 360.  Its not stretched out right?  Would you want them to do a remake instead or take original assets, bump up to 1080p and put online multiplayer into it?  So that essentially, the remakes are 360 titles now? 
I would love to see Halo 2 multiplayer back, I miss Waterworks.

I would want Halo Reach engine / assets for a Halo 1 remake.  Only do a Halo 2 remake if they're gonna fix the gameplay.

I want.

I would like that.........however
 
What i really want to see is the multiplayer from Halo:CE PC come to XBLA, kind of like what EA did with BF:1943 but with all the maps form the PC version and the flamethrower

I would also buy that.

If the price ain't absurd, I'd buy it.
If the price is absurd, I'll buy both version for 5 euro each in their original forms!.
Fine either way!

My question is... what happens when everyone starts playing Halo 2 online again instead of Halo Reach? My mind would break.

....Halo 3 is already in "HD".  So you'd just pay for Halo and Halo 2...are you willing to buy Halo and Halo 2 for 360?

Doesn't Halo 2 already go 720p?

I'd love to play a super up rezzed version of Halo: CE. 

Play Halo and Halo 2 in super high resolution on your PCs.

Halo 1 and 2 mutliplayer on XBL would be nice, I wouldn't pay any more than 40 for it though. After the ending of Reach though I get the feeling a 343 remake of the first game is more and more likely.

It'd be fun, but Reach feels like the logical conclusion of Halo for me at this point. It brought back everything I liked about Halo 1's multiplayer (no dual-wields, the nice pistol, blood gulch), and incorporated it beautifully with all the lessons learned with 3, and ODST, and made a really tight, kinda end-all experience. The campaigns aren't something I'd want to revisit, as Halo 1's level design is a little simplistic for these days. I mean it was the first really significant console shooter (other than goldeneye, but you get my point), and as such the level design is pretty old school. You'd have to do more than up-rez the game to make it more interesting, is basically what I'm saying.

I think it is a bad idea just to do Halo HD. I think that would exaggerate the reality that Halo hasn't changed much since CE. But if they go whole hog on it, by adding Theatre, Forge the true innovations in the Halo franchise, now we are talking.

Hey, I was just thinking the exact same thing recently!  If it's $40, I'm buying it, no questions asked.  It would be nice if they'd put in some new high-res textures, like the XBLA Perfect Dark port, though. 

I'm totally for Halo Combat Evolved remade with online matchmaking and the whole deal.  Just use the Reach engine and all that.

Halo 3 in HD would be great.

" ....Halo 3 is already in "HD"."

" @Aleryn: I wonder if Microsoft has rights for the Engine. Since Bungie is independent, I think Halo HD with Reach engine is not a possibility. "

If they do it they have to be remade with new textures or the assets from the newer games since you can download them on the Xbox 360.

I swear I was talking about this not a week ago. 343 could just re-release Halo with Reachs graphics. I think it'll happen

Here's the way I look at it. It isn't going to happen. Here's the reason why: 
 
Sony is doing HD collections of mostly single player games (the only one that isn't single player is Mortal Kombat). Sony is doing this because there's is high support from the long time fans. Many people that played these games play other single player games for the stories and can easily go back and play these games. With Halo, it's tough. With the release of the online multiplayer for Halo 2, a lot of people stuck to that. I say maybe 30% of the people that bought Halo bought it for the multiplayer. They'll probably complete the single player, but won't go back to it. Most of the Halo players will see a Halo: CE and Halo 2 HD collection, but wonder why they should they buy that if they already have Halo Reach.  
 
But hey, I could be wrong. All the Halo fans might just burst out of their multiplayer bubble and say "hey, Halo has a cool story line. I want to revisit that." However, I have high doubts.

" *Starts up Halo on the PC*
 
*1900x1200, bigger than 'full' HD*  I just blew all your minds.  *hopes nobody notices the HUD gets stretched horizontally at that resolution* "

I would pay for that! Playing Halo 1 & 2 online again would be amazing.

" I would buy it. I would just want them to look better and for Halo 2 and 1 to have the same kind of multiplayer features as the newer games. They would fuck it up though and get rid of all the jank from Halo 2 multiplayer. "

" I would want Halo Reach engine / assets for a Halo 1 remake.  Only do a Halo 2 remake if they're gonna fix the gameplay. "

Id not mind halo 1 and 2 remade in Reaches engine.

At the very least, it'd be cool if they re-made the original Halo:CE maps and put them out as DLC for Reach. I'd buy it.
(And, Blood Gulch aside, I mean really remake them. Not Forge World-ize what they can._
