Experience the majesty of the Library level all over again.

Out with those baby graphics!

Before you finish the fight with Master Chief in Halo 4, return to the very first fight--the fight you thought was finished in 2001-- and finish it all over again.

During Microsoft's E3 Press Conference, the minds behind 343 Industries announced Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, an updated and enhanced remake of the original Halo: Combat Evolved. Commemorating ten years of Spartans, Team Slayer, Needlers, plasma grenades, Warthogs, and teabags, Halo Anniversary will feature an enhanced retelling of the original Halo campaign with HD graphics.

In addition to the campaign, Halo Anniversary will feature seven updated versions of the original game's multiplayer maps, which means that you'll finally be able to play the REAL Blood Gulch in an online Halo match (you know, instead of all those fake Blood Gulch maps.)

Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary will be released for the 360 on Novermber 15.

It's still not the REAL blood gulch because it's updated. Honestly I'm not buying this because I already played it enough and Halo Reach pretty much perfected Halo already.

I can not fully describe how disappointed I am that they are just releasing the original maps for Reach instead of giving it the treatment they gave the campaign. Most of those maps have already been created in Forge. This makes no fucking sense to me.

I'm a big Halo fan, but if this is more than 10 or 15 dollars I'm absolutely going to pass. Very underwhelmed.

I have the PC version ha ha and I played a hell lot of Blood Gulch online. However, I am not happy about the remake. The graphics look worse than the original to be honest.
