I'm impressed they're adding navigational help to this particular level. I remember getting turned around more than once and having to trek back across trees and swamps to where I was supposed to go. Man, I finished the original Halo just a few years ago, but I may have to pick this up.

It wasn't amazing for me as a PC gamer back then, and it certainly doesn't look like they did much now either.

Amazing how much things can change in 10 years.

The best part however it being able to relive that awesome feeling of playing campaign with my friends only this time we don't have to be in the same room. Thank you Xbox Live.

I have a shameful secret, I never beat HALO CE on legendary, I hope there's an achievement for it now, just to see if my skills have improved....

Was that video just running like shit or does this game run at, like, fifteen frames?  Noticing nobody else said anything so I'm guessing it's just something with me.

Even though I'm a little iffy on making Guilty Spark brighter, if they keep it creepy enough then I won't mind that particular level. I liked the fog though.

That said, I will fucking buy thisgame. I still love playing CE on my laptop. I will play it with better graphics.

They keep on talking about "bringing back the magnum" in multiplayer. Does this mean that they are replacing the "current" MP magnum? I don't see how they could; if they did, there would be complaints about it's power as soon as the game is released, which would probably lead them to nerfing it or just replacing it with the Reach magnum, which makes this whole "bringing back the magnum" thing seem a little strange to me.

Why does he keep talking about 10 years of technology advances.... has he forgot how old the x360 is now?

Technically... this is only 4 years worth of advances! - By which i mean, this is how Halo CE would have looked had it been released on the x360 in 2005... all they are doing is using the extra processor power to increase the polygon count!

Imagine how good this could actually look if Microsoft had bothered to release a new console this year, instead of dicking around with that Kinect nonsense...

Wake up Microsoft, the PC is about to steal the games industry from under your noses..... Just sayin'

Damn, that is so fun to look at. What a cool little feature! I think it's one case where I would find myself using it back and forth all the time. It looks so great, but the old blocky blurry textures also look kind of fun still!

So the movie industry has tainted video games now? Are we forever cursed to remakes, restarts, etc?
When'd you start gaming, reboots/remakes/ports have been around in gaming for decades. 
 
Nice try though.

@beeftothetaco: There will be both. It will be an option if you want to make a custom game and there will be a matchmaking mode included in the title update that has the classic pistol in it for sure. So, not replacing just adding it as another of the many options in Reach multiplayer.

Indeed, also I haven't really loved a Halo since the first one anyways.

At the risk of sounding like one of those Diablo 3 crybabies, is it just me or does everything look a little too bright and colorful for that murky swamp?

When I expand the video to full screen, the frame rate is normal.

I haven't enjoyed Halo since the first game on the PC. But the graphic switching feature is certainly stunning to behold. One more game to get if I ever buy a 360, I guess.
