    Would be hilarious, in light of sonys recent decisions, if it required a Live account to play.

      Well if they include multiplayer then it will definitely require that.

    Bruh, another game that has been remastered in twice.

    This would be a re-remaster (re-remake?) considering Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary released in 2011 was a remake of the original 2001 game.

      Is he now the remaster chief?

      And it plays great, too.
      Unless they’re going to completely redo every model and make the tedious levels less annoying what’s the point in a remaster?

      Obviously it’s money. But it’s gotta cost a lot to make it.

        They’d better not touch the Library!

    I’m a huge Halo fanboy and even I don’t need this.

    I can’t believe they’re remastering Combat Evolved again, but not Halo 3.

    Well, as long as they do a better job than the original CE Anniversary, I’ll probably play it.

      Honestly, 3 doesn’t really need it. The art direction is excellent and just inceasing the render resolution works great. Same with ODST and Reach.

        I tend to agree, but it would be nice to play with the nice, rich visuals of Halo 2 Anniversary. And not have to look at Lord Hood’s craggy visage or the slightly polygonal Marine heads.

        Reach, on the other hand: no remaster would improve how that game looks. Still a stunning bit of work all these years later.

        I would like them to fix the 60 fps cutscene issue. None of the original cutscenes were designed for that high frame rate, they just artificially sped them up which makes a lot of the Halo 3 cutscenes look weird. I’d at least like a proper port, kind of like what Nixxes has been doing for Sony games on PC.

    I swear they’ve already done this at least once.

      They did. It was based on the PC version that Gearbox fucked up and it took ten years for the classic mode graphics to be fixed. The remastered graphics were a lazy mishmash of Halo 3 and Reach models haphazardly thrown together. The remastered level geometry also didn’t match the actual geometry, which resulted in things like invisible trees blocking your bullets.

        Well I’ve got news for you. They already remastered CE years ago and it looks great.
