So jealous. Wow.

 

[Jito]

Hot Damn those screens are sexy.

 

[AllIsOneIsNone]

I did, fullscreen, 1080p. Ive been playing Reach all week, so its fresh in my mind, and to me, that footage of H2 looks reminscent of Reach. Its no looker, put it that way

This footage isn't 60fps even though it says so. There's little aliasing here and Reach was not 1080p. Even at 30fps it looks substantially better than Reach to me.

 

[Gabotron ES]

This is the best visors have looked.

 

[wwm0nkey]

Can shared vehicle health please come back? Please?

Still looks great otherwise

 

[FonkyByNature]

Amazing !

I had so much fun back in the days with this map... Cannot wait for the Master Chief Collection !!!

 

[The Lamonster]

Can I map Destiny-style controls to this game?

 

[VinFTW]

Lawl. I didn't even realize I was doing that. My avatar is completely absorbing me. -_-

 

[Diddy Kong]

Cannot wait for this fucking game!!!!! It looks BEAUTIFUL ;_;

 

[shinobi602]

Fuuuuuck me. Sorry Destiny, going to have to put you down for a while come November.

 

[rokkerkory]

My body isnt ready

Halo Reach is sub 720p with temporal AA. The bump in image quality alone makes this a big upgrade aesthetically.

 

[Welfare]

Can November be tomorrow? This game needs to be in my Xbox.

 

[derFeef]

The circle is complete.

 

[Archpath1]

Looks great
But looks a little too brown would like some color

 

[Shin-Ra]

Why is anisotropic filtering so difficult?

 

[Ape]

Why is anisotropic filtering so difficult?

Take some classes and report back!

 

[ElRenoRaven]

See that's how you do it. 343 take that and build Halo 5's multiplayer off of that damn it.

 

[Trickster]

This just reminded me how incredibly bad Destiny mp is in comparrison to the glory that was Halo 2 mp...

 

[malfcn]

Looks awesome. I only wish the armor looked more worn. It must be repaired daily or super durable. When I think of sand and armor (or general combat) think battle worn.

 

[Calm Killer]

Behold the greatness. There are no words. We need to create new words for this greatness. Halorific? Cazemic. Yup.

 

[soultron]

Why is anisotropic filtering so difficult?

Yeah, I really wanted to see individual pebbles on the ground at the horizon line too.

Being serious: this looks great. The memories are flooding back to me.

 

[Shin-Ra]

Yeah, I really wanted to see individual pebbles on the ground at the horizon line too.

Or you know, nice detail not blurring into a smear a short way into the distance.

 

[The Jackdog]

If no one has played any of the halo games, man im jealous at the amount of fun youre about to have with this game

 

[Alcoholikaust]

Behold the greatness. There are no words. We need to create new words for this greatness. Halorific? Cazemic. Yup.

*badassical

 

[Nzyme32]

when did the quad bike thing get front mounted guns? I don't recall that

 

[Dee Dah Dave]

Slightly off topic but do we know if they managed to get the Halo 2 campaign up to 1080p yet?

Not that I particularly care but it would be nice if the entire package was consistent across the board.

 

[dancrane212]

Can't wait to have a LAN with this, Zanzibar is such a great map.

 

[Diablohead]

Can't wait, I think this collection may last me longer then Quake 3 did, and that was a looooooooooooooooooooong time.

 

[Blue Ninja]

Holy shit, I had no idea Halo 2 Anniversary had an Assault Rifle.

It's so pretty. Halo 2 is back.

 

[soultron]

Or you know, nice detail not blurring into a smear a short way into the distance.

Well, there's a few things to consider:

1) The game probably isn't finished yet, things could change. (Though they probably won't.)
2) It's a console game, do you expect 16x AF? IIRC, this was also a problem with the original Halo games, so it's not like it's a new issue. You can argue that it's new and improved hardware, I realise that.

I'd much rather have solid performance than amazing visuals for a console game, especially one where, arguably, half of the focus is on competitive play. But that's just me, obviously. If you're someone who's more into graphical fidelity, I understand that you expect more.

 

[ProvenDeadly]

As much as this looks great, I'm hoping 343 is true to their word and shows of some CE this week.

was it not at 1080p?

edit:I thought when it was last shown hey said 1080p and 60 for halo2

 

[ElzarTheBam]

Graphic don't even matter, I'll be playing OG Halo 2 too much.

 

[Caja 117]

It looks sooooooo good,i really like these remade maps and I will defenetly pay for a DLC containing more remakes. come on, 343, do it.

 

[ProvenDeadly]

All games campaigns and MPs are 1080p, for the Halo 2 campaign they are having a harder time because they are essentially using 2 engines at once.

 

[Sordid]

Looks great! Is that Halo 4 Steitzer announcing though?

 

[mocoworm]

Explain?

 

[Iorv3th]

Why does the mongoose have guns on it?

 

[Diablohead]

Why does the mongoose have guns on it?

Because that variant is called a gungoose

It's only in Halo 2 Anniversary's MP I believe, not the original MP.

 

[Akai__]

All games campaigns and MPs are 1080p, for the Halo 2 campaign they are having a harder time because they are essentially using 2 engines at once.

Explain why Halo 1 Anniversary is capable of doing it and Halo 2 Anniversary isn't. I'm not complaining, but I would like to understand why it isn't possible.

Why does the mongoose have guns on it?

It's called the Gungoose and it's a new vehicle.

I think it has to do with the fact that in h2A, the graphical change happens instantly when you press the button with no delay.

Nope, during PAX Q&A they said, that Halo 1 Anniversary will switch instantly, too.

I'm assuming Halo 2A looks a ton better, which from gameplay it does. I don't know though.

 

[ProvenDeadly]

Explain?

They are using the original Halo 2 engine, and Halo 2A engine at once. From what I understand they are stacked on top of each other. You press the equivalent to the back button on the XB1 controller and it instantly switches engines.

 

[Fudgepuppy]

I'm gonna say it, but I find Reach to be the game I'd like to replay the most. The tone of that game is stellar.

 

[-PXG-]

Holy shit. Looks sooooo good. Even better I'm off on the 11th.

[ArchedThunder]

Yeah, the visors finally look good again! It's been 7 years.

Why is anisotropic filtering so difficult?

At least it's better than Halo 4's.
