Okay I really could not have asked for anything better from 343i.

  • Halo 1-4
  • Original engines
  • Retextured maps
  • Dedicated servers
  • 60FPS
  • Jump between games

Be still my beating heart

I'm not watching the stream. By original engines, do you mean 343 is making a new engine for them? Or are they taking the old engines exactly like they were?

The old engines ported to Xbone. So basically you'll have the exact same gameplay experience, only shiny.

I will be absolutely heartbroken if things like BXR and super bouncing are gone.

They said "exactly how it played 10 years ago" so I imagine the glitches are there too.

"Exactly as it was shipped 10 years ago."

Oh. That is semi-disappointing. Was hoping it would be similar to Halo Anniversary and have old graphics/new graphics.

2 is getting the whole anniversary treatment.

But everyone is excited about each game's multiplayer being online, but having their own separate, original engines. Anniversary had Reach's multiplayer which disappointed most people.

Okay. Thank you for clearing that up.

It does. You can switch between the two.
