I can't believe his Halo 2 thing is real. If that is their Halo game for XB1 this year...... so much disappoint.
On a platform that doesn't have those titles. Also, Halo 2 is probably not going to be the same Halo 2 released on the original Xbox and we still have the Halo 5 beta in December apparently.
I'm not saying it's the best we could get, but considering Halo 5 is apparently going to be delayed until next year (and probably for good reason) then I would say that this is the ideal scenario to appease fans until then.
You didn't honestly expect that the E3 2013 CGI trailer we saw would amount to anything this year, did you? No gameplay, not mention of betas, nothing afterwards. Halo 5 is 2015, for sure, unless it encounters some development hiccups. Of all the 'exclusives' revealed, I'd say maybe Quantum Break and Insomniac's game hits this year. Oh and that world-building thing is already in alpha or something isn't it?
Don't get me wrong i am not saying this is bad,its good actually. I want as many xbox and xbox 360 games on the xbox one as possible. Also you realize people would be pissed if it's not the same Halo 2? Then why rerelase it? Unless you mean minor stuff like graphics,its still the same game though.
Maybe they are doing a larger press event too? The leaker hinted that all his info would've been eventually officially released by the end of February/start of March.
id rather get a finished halo game this time thank you
So not Halo 2 then?

im talking about a new mainline game
dont care much about halo 2 at this point but ill get it for the beta
Damn right it was. Looking back on it, I still like Halo CE the best, but Halo 2 had nice set pieces too.Still was great ; )
I love Halo 2, it's the last good Bungie game.
You seemingly are stuck in 2004, because they also gave us Halo 3, which had the best multiplayer in the series, as well as a solid side story in ODST.Reach was poop.
Semi-off topic: Destiny will re-affirm our faith inBungleBungie.
I think it depends on the scope of the project. Halo CE anniversary was done pretty quickly and with a small budget. If Saber and CA are given more time and resources i don't see why they couldn't add new content. Very few people hold Halo 2's campaign in the same high regard as CE and wouldn't be that annoyed if it was altered a bit. Would give a chance to add a proper ending, maybe make the brutes fun to fight and so forth.Ah, got it. I'm not much of a multiplayer guy but would seriously considering getting an Xbox One for Halo 2 *if* it's not just an enhanced port. I honestly doubt they'll make new content for the game, though.

Halo 2 and 3 were pretty similar. Reach was decent and Destiny is nothing like Halo so what do you mean re-affirm faith in Bungie?
Destiny, will be Shadowrun 2 MP wise I feel. So not a bad thing but it wont be Halo.
Not able to answer because they need news for events is a sad answer. That dude really did leak most of their major plans into 2016, didn't he?
A lot of people (at least from what I gather) feel Bungie lost a bit of their magic with Reach, it felt like their hearts weren't fully in it, myself included, and the title suffered because of it
Destiny looks great and I think with the whole team at Bungie fully invested in this title and wanting to "bottle that lightning a second time" (sages words) they will deliver something great.
Not really expecting Halo, don't want Halo. Don't want COD either. I think Destiny will be something new and original.

It wont be new or original. The gunplay is like COD with ads and borderlands style open world and loot.
wow youre in for a big letdown if you think destiny will be the second coming of christ
no doubt, it will be an amazing game but its not gonna be anything new

I don't really doubt the leaks, but I wouldn't look too much into Phil Spencer's declarations. He's been teasing a lot of things and letting us expect many announcements of games that haven't come yet. The possibility is still there, but with the same kind of interpretation we should have seen a new Crackdown at each gaming event of 2013.
Stuck in 2004? They gave us bubble shields in H3 and armor abilities in Reach, H3 and HR were terrible but HODST had a pretty decent campaign. Destiny isn't even on my radar because their last games have not been good.

Learn to read in between the lines. Multiple insiders have confirmed H2A, and he basically said that yes, they are working on it, but they can't reveal anything until the press release.How does this confirm Halo 2.."? He just said it's a good game..?
The Needler has the deepest lore
its subzero at a starbucks now
Lore?
Wahrer said:The crystalline compound is known colloquially as "blamite," which has only been found in mines on a moon orbiting the Elite homeworld. It relies on chemical reactions to trace organic signatures, and when a certain number of needles penetrate a target (usually 7), the chemical reactions have a harmonic effect that exponentially increases the explosive damage.
As for the reload mechanics and whatnot, the temperature of Blamite's never been explained - but it's been theorized that the Needler works like a glorified play-doh spaghetti maker. That is, a large singular crystal is placed in a centralized magazine, said crystal is superheated, at which point it reverts to a semisolid and is forcibly threaded through the visible holes atop the gun. Upon protrusion, the needles immediately cool and retain their shape.
A bit of supplementary material from Reach reveals that most Covenant weapons shouldn't even work, though - triggers aren't even physically connected to their firing mechanisms. It's possible that the guns don't completely exist in dimensions visible to us - since Covenant tech is largely descended from jailbroken Forerunner technology, they might be employing "cloud storage" for weapon components, but in the physical realm.
But... But... Super bouncing!Looking forward to it, really hoping the multiplayer is 1:1 to OG H2 (sans bugs). That would definitely re-ignite my interest in playing MP.
Halo 2 had some licensed music as well did it not (Breaking Benjamin was one I think)?Wonder if they're re-recording the OST... I wasn't really a fan of the CEA version. It just sounded off, even if higher quality.

Same here, Microsoft could actually win back a significant part of the audience for Halo 5 when that comes out.If Halo 2 Anniversary comes out at 1080p60 on Xbone with full multiplayer and dedicated servers then:
343 redeemed
Halo redeemed
Xbone redeemed
+1 Microsoft cheerleader for 2014

This whole ntkernal leak thing is basically a new type of upcoming game announcement without actually commit to anything.
If two years from now, MS can not keep the promise of the release of a low tier IP game then they will just pretend the leak was fake.
I don't get these remakes. I have played the shit out of the game 10 years ago. I don't need to play it again. I wonder how Bungie feels about it.
