For reals. Imagine what could have been. *shudder*
I don't even want to.
It basically confirmed my speculation earlier in this thread, though:
That's probably just some bogus retailer thing. The Halo 5 beta is included in digital and physical copies.
Also this.
Halo 2 MP followed by H2 campaign.

Yup, the beta will be accessible from in game menu for everyone who has MCC in the time of Halo 5 beta comes out.
As much as I want this, I highly doubt this would ever happen

Yeah, it likely won't happen, but if it did then I would never worry about Halo music again. It's not that Halo 4's was bad, but Marty knew how to make Halo music that worked so well with the gameplay.

Halo 2 campaign, then the Halo 4 campaign are the first two things on my list. Then, out of curiosity, and to see if I have an improved opinion of it, I'll play the Halo 3 campaign before finally going back to the Halo CE campaign.

In terms of multiplayer, nothing is going to top having H2 back on that disc. The campaigns are something to argue, but I never saw anything better outside of CE and H2 in terms of MP.

The concept art looked awesome, at least. We might finally get a totally new, unique look to Blood Gulch.

Would be soooo awesome if 343 included all official viddocs and commercials too!!
Gungoose. That's all you need to know.
Woah, what is GAF donging? It sounds like it could be amazing...
Edit:
I didn't play the campaign for 1-3 so I'm picking it up at midnight, taking the next day of work off, and banging out those missions. I honestly can't wait!
My gosh that sounds amazing. How can I get in on that??

That's a really good idea.
Filling out a party with people who are talkative, cooperative, and friendly to dong drop randoms. It's a grand ole time.
Concept art would be cool too.

I'm gonna play through all the Halo games chronologically. I'm gonna have Wars and Reach beat a few days before launch and play ODST after H2A. After I finish all the Campaigns Im gonna jump into the multiplayer and I will take a break after I am taken to the hospital for dehydration... Ok maybe I'm too excited for this

You should actually play through ODST right after the Metropolis mission in Halo 2 if you want to be chronologically correct.
Also just go full Halo and add watching FUD before playing Wars( I think FUD takes place at some point during Halo Wars actually. Where's Greencastle when you need him?).

Just watching all the commercials... Gotta say best commercials for a videogame ever.

I've barely bothered with stuff like this before because the online co-op netcode was so garbage. But with dedicated servers that sounds really fun! I'm excited to see that kinda stuff become more viable.

Halo 2 Campaign then Halo CE multiplayer FOREVER

All the campaigns, again, starting from CE. Then a revisit of Spartan Ops. Then multiplayer, though I don't expect to play it long - people will have crazy map knowledge from years and years of playing, and I'd be learning everything anew - not looking forward to that kind of thrashing, nor expecting to get through it really. Will at least dip my toes in anyway, just for shits.

I still can't believe this collection exists! Halo 1-4 AND the Halo 5 beta!
Absolutely amazing value here.

This part interests me a lot e.g. I doubt they're upgrading from lockstep button input latency for Halo 3 coop but it should be far more enjoyable with local friends on a local Azure server.
I wonder for the Halo 2 coop if the networking tech is different or just shoe-horned in? It would be a really great technical article or Q&A session IMO.
I can't wait to bring some old school CTF and assault parties to the newly initiated Halo fans
Map, settings and gametype experience is such a massive skill gap in itself. If you have ever liked objective in Reach or 4 then you're in for a real treat come Halo CE/2/3 on dedis. I'll just bookmark your post right here because I have a feeling you'll dive in to try it and end up staying a looong while.

Yep, it's still pretty damn hard to believe it's even happening at all, much less this year, in the same exact package, and at $60. You see the RTX panel that touched on how they're creating these custom playlists for each game's campaign, where, for example, I could play strictly Master Chief missions in Halo 2, or strictly Arbiter missions? You could obviously do this type of thing yourself with the options they've made available in this collection, but I like how they're making it more accessible to all.

I think i would first play some halo2A multiplayer, then play the campaign because I haven't played it yet only halo campaign I haven't. Because I couldn't afford an Xbox back then.

That'd be great if so.I can't wait to bring some old school CTF and assault parties to the newly initiated Halo fans
I've only ever dabbled in Halo multiplayer, spending more time in each game's multiplayer in turn, and in that dabbling I ran into a lot of things that I think Halo 4 was trying to answer - not knowing where the power weapons and ammo were - getting screamed at or even betrayed by teammates for not letting them have the power weapon I just stumbled upon, or finding myself in the middle of a match between a full team and one at half strength. I mean, I know why people don't like Halo 4, but I also appreciate a lot of what it was trying to do, especially for newer players.
Its been so long though that I have to jump back into Halo 2 and 3. Will be pleasantly surprised if those end up hooking me more than Halo 4.
Thanks, I'll send him a tweet. I asked in here awhile ago but got no response.
I'm wondering if they'll include the original samples from the multiplayer announcer in each game.
I think it's safe to assume that the original audio will be in for each game.

So I guess I'm still a bit confused, how does the multiplayer work with a collection this big? Do you commit to a game in a menu, like "I want to play Halo 1 multiplayer!" or can you join servers that cycle through all 100 maps, or what? I get the campaign playlist thing
I don't know if you guys announced this, but can we expect DLC maps for H2A?
Ma man. My favorite MP in the series.
Have they announced anything for Bungie Day?
it'll be later on it's just details about Destiny collectors edition and beta times ect.
I would expect some wallpapers and other various goodies though.
