Not a fan of Halo but my friends are and I was happy for them to see this announced and at that price ? Major kudos to MS for that, looks a bargain. The Orange Box 2

For once it'll actually look and play like the Theater mode shots that were all over GAF back then.
Those same shots that were "totally what it looks like on my TV", my fucking ass.
But NOW it will
Pretty sure that is not true. They showed separate playlists in addition to the combined one
this is campaign, but I dont see why MP would be different

God I feel like Cartman right now. Between Destiny and this collection fall can't come fast enough. I need to be frozen stat.

Anniversary is on the Halo 1 engine, the only difference is the textures and models can swap out.
Oh wait you mean when it used the reach multi? good question.

In all media, only true fans who consume every book, film, game, or pog collection deserve to know what's going on.
What do you mean?
My understanding at this point is that they are giving Halo 2 the full anniversary treatment. Same as Halo CEA. They have upgraded the graphics of 6 of the Halo 2 maps. I would assume the 6 most popular. We have seen ascension. We can only assume Midship and Lock out will be 2 more of those. I have asked Bonnie via Twitter to confirm the other 5 maps. All 100+ maps are available on this disk with their MP untouched. The lobby system hasn't been confirmed yet, but thy did speak about playlists during the reveal.
ntkrnl was already the truth with everything he said before, and if you didn't know before, now you know.
Fuck, this was far beyond anything anyone could have pictured. To think that I and many others thought it would have been far too much work just to get the single player for all 4 games redone alone, they go and remaster:
EVERYTHING including every single map?
60 fps?
1080p?
Dedicated servers?
Even redo 8 Halo 2 maps?
Well damn, between this and all of the other games shown onscreen, I guess I'll be getting an Xbox One far sooner than I thought.
Good show Microsoft, good show. To think I was already more than happy with the possibility of getting all of just the Halo 2 maps out of this. Wow.

From my understanding its not.
Original engine
I don't want to sit in a glorified rumble pit lobby. I want to know, for sure, if I can play the halo I want.

I'm confused as to what you will be able to play "online."
He said Halo 2 was getting the anniversary treatment, leading me to believe that you can only play the 6 Halo 2 maps in online matchmaking

I'm going to buy an xbone and this purely to play Halo 2 online. Couldn't give a rat's ass about anything else in the bundle. Just sweet, sweet Halo 2 online. Hope it ships with BxRs and all.

So how does this work? Are Halo 1, 2, 3, and 4 players separated by game, and then further split into the various playlists?
And this is all on original engine, including CE?
But what's up with the redone Halo 2 maps we saw at the MS conference? Is that in the remaster, which is included in the collection?
So, Halo 1, 2, 2 Remastered, 3, and 4?

They announced 1080p, not 4KFor once it'll actually look and play like the Theater mode shots that everybody made back then.
