    With all the rumors and Microsoft dropping the ball at 2013, I thought I would never so much as touch an Xbox One. But the more I hear about this compilation the more I want it.

    Why couldn't you just half ass it with a shitty remake, 343? Why do you have to make it so hard to resist?

    Because 343 seems to be learning from their past mistakes, and Microsoft's been recently cleaning house.

    Maybe because the Xbox one is actually a nice system?
    And also because halo 5 will be an Xbox one exclusive, and if they don't push to sell the X1, then halo 5 won't make as much of a profit?
    And because the point of this collection is so that players on the Xbox one can play the halo games on the new console?
    Just some wild ideas.

    So. Halo 2 Anniversary's campaign doesn't run at 1080p. Apparently everything else in the Collection will though.

    They it's due to them rendering Halo 2 Anniversary and Halo 2 both in 1080p, 60fps at the same time. They might overcome that by launch, but I think they could just remove the option to switch graphics and no one would really be bothered.

    Have special editions been even alluded to? It's why I've been holding off on preordering, but if they aren't coming, I might as well.

    Gungoose, silenced SMG, Assault Rifle, tuned up magnum to be in the Halo 2 Anniversary multiplayer maps. And Coagulation announced. Guy said loadouts but that hasn't been confirmed, he's just assuming that from 'Weapon sets'.
