1 more thing.........Why the FUDGE is it that you put -blam- over curse words? so the fudge what its a curse word. the kids parents knows whats going down when they buy thier kid a rated M game, and plus, its not like the kids never heard the words in school......ya should stop that -blam!-....its stupid
-
Don't lie, i want more DLC including the original halo maps, and maybe maps from halo 2... and maybe some new -blam!-........maybe it could come in a case like the extra halo2 maps did...call it Halo: Multiplayer Edition....and it can be a WHOLE lot of levels.......the whole disk, no story modes, just multiplayer.............HOT.........
-
No additions? that means no Xbox Live play..........................................fudge.......................................i was looking foward to that......................since on xbox originals you cant play music during the game, can you atleast play music while playing the xbox 360 downloadable version?

you dont need a 360, but honestly its a waste of money, if you want to play halo:CE online, just go to xbox connect.com no space lawlz. its just like live, no mic tho, its like playin system link around teh worldz.
-
kool i did not know that thx
-
What a rip off! No achievements OR online play!?

[quote][b]Posted by:[/b] schwetty74 from reading bungie's latest post, it looks like they're finally understanding that the majority of players want the halo combat evolved maps available on XBL on the next DLC release. since bungie's divorce from M$, they've been more open to what the players want, instead of "ALL" of it being about money. tons of players got on Forge/Foundry and remade many of the halo 1 maps, maybe bungie is finally getting it. instead of a petition, something of a "Top 10 Requests for DLC" i would think would be more appropriate and received better by bungie. just my opinion though....[/quote] umm were asking for halo 1 with xbox live functionality, not more DLC

i would prefer keeping halo ce exactly the same way it originally was, but i don't see that ever happening with XBL. at least getting the original maps to play on would be fun, even with the halo 3 physics and weapons.
-
Although, I have had chances to play halo 1 & 2 I loved the games. I agree with what many people are saying "Make halo 1 XBL enabled". Then I would have kept my xbox, meh. I have an idea, I wouldnt know how it would work but, what if we made a group that was a petition to try and get as many people as we can to join that agree that halo should be XBL enabled. Then bungie or whoever would pay more attention to that and we would have a better chance. Anyone agree?

Hey im pretty much a newb to everything related to xbox 360 and the halo series. Im hoping I get a 360 for xmas then get on live with halo 2 or 3. Just curious do you buy things with ur gamerpoints or do you need to buy a disk and in order to download it you must have this many gamerpoints, explain how this works to me.

-
That's a rubbish idea seeing as there'd be no drop damage, instant vehicle splatter or pistol, it would water-down that lovely Halo 1 multi-player experience!
-
I gotta agree with that. The remakes are usually my favorite maps.
-
how about just a couple remakes every now and then. even some halo 2 map remakes would be cool too, even though i hated the gameplay of h2. i'd keep MS points constantly just to get those. what would be great: every couple months or so, a 3-map DLC, one brand new map, a Halo Combat Evolved Map, and a halo 2 map, all playable with halo 3 weapons. I could live with that as long as bungie wouldn't make the old maps look and feel completely different.
-
hey if there is nothing new why even buy it, being the is halo 1 and where already playing halo 3. they should put online support like the pc version why didn't they very sad!!
-
Can't say I agree- couldn't you feasibly use new gametypes and Forge to emulate the 'classic' Halo experience in H3? I love Halo- easily one of my favourite games ever- but Halo 3 is vastly superior in the multiplayer stakes. Halo's campaign was a masterpiece, though!
-
Do iiiiit! Do it now! Come on!
-
amen, halo3 would gather dust if that happened
-
I never did understand why they spent all that money to develop Halo 2. I would have gladly paid another $60 just to rebuy Halo 1 with Live capability. And I still would today. We are at your mercy. Just do it, for christ's sake. I don't care what it costs.
-
I couldn't agree more with what everyone is saying, with the exception that HALO CE is dead. It's dying, and if Bungie or Microsoft doesn't help it out, it will be dead. I'm pretty pi$$ed about the download on Marketplace, mainly because I'm the idiot who downloaded as soon as it came out just to see if it had LIVE capability (money NOT well spent! :). I think that Bungie and Microsoft should definitely work on putting it on LIVE, especially if they want to CRUSH the PS3. Just like you guys said, you would gladly pay a king's ransom for HALO CE on LIVE. Until then, we'll just have to be content with HALO 3 :)
-
PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE!!! We really want to play Halo: CE via Xbox Live. If Bungie is worried about people ditching Halo 3 to play it, couldn't they give us a huge Halo 3 download that included Halo maps, weapons, warthog, etc.? We could then create a custom game type that emulated Halo. Yet we would still have to BUY Halo 3. World peace and happiness.
-
I agree man, if Halo 1 was XBL enabled it would not be a dead game, but the sad truth is that it is not XBL enabled and it is dead. New Halo 1 game disks are no longer being made, hardly anyone plays it, it is not XBL enabled, it is not updated - it is dead. So yeah, I am serious, and like I said, Halo 1 was the best in my opinion, but now it's dead.
-
How awesome would it have been if they made it XBox Live Enabled ! So, sad to see they left this out. I think everyone would have stopped playing Halo 3 if they did that. There is still hope? Maybe if enough people ask, Microsoft will do it? Edit: Are you serious ! "I think Bungie probably thinks it is more important to work on new projects rather than focusing on a "dead" game from an outdated console." A dead game it would not, if it was XBL enabled. I think they are afraid everyone would want to play it instead of Halo 3 [Edited on 12.10.2007 5:19 PM PST]

I thought it was a pretty cool update. I lost my copy of Halo:CE about 2 years ago. So I thought it was pretty cool that they put it up for download. Now I can play Halo 3, and if I get bored I can just switch to the dashboard and load up Halo 1. Pretty cool. I think for them to add online functionality they would have to completely re-wire all the coding in multiplayer, as well as purchasing servers to support all the players. I think Bungie probably thinks it is more important to work on new projects rather than focusing on a "dead" game from an outdated console. I can't blame them for that. I would rather play Halo 1 with online functionality over Halo 3 any day, but asking for Halo 1 to be given online functionality is almost like asking for Goldeneye 64 to be given online functionality. It's just not gonna happen. But as for Halo: CE being up for download, I thought that was great. It's really convenient to be able to get the best game ever made for 12 dollars, and not have to worry about losing it or getting the disc scratched.

I own four original Xbox's, and approx 12 copies of Halo Combat Evolved. Greatest game ever 10/10. Halo 2 in my opinion, was a terrible sequel, 1/10. Halo 3 is FAR better than H2, probably a 6/10, specifically because of the online play. My all-time wish, have all halo maps available for all halo weapon setups... i.e.play chill out with halo 3 weapons, play construct with halo ce weapons, etc. be able to choose, if you want to play with halo ce, halo 2 or halo 3 weapons, and then be able to play on all the maps (hang'em, lockout, valhalla, etc.). i would pay $100 for an update or whatever for this. i would even wait a year for it if I knew it was coming. But I do think this was misleading for MS/Bungie to release this, no matter who was responsible for doing it. I think their are well over 1,000,000 people who would pay big money for having Halo CE on XBL, with achievements and all that.

Couldn't have said it better. On-line play or achievements would have sold me.
