I hate this so much. I loved Halo but we just dont need another re-release of the same fucking game again. I was a die hard Xbox/Halo/Gears fan from the CE release but i hate the Xbox now. I despise the platform and publishing strategy. Creativity hasnt been allowed at the MGS for a long time. Xbox is dead.

While it's a bit silly to say since everybody's doing remakes, I find it more than a little sad that over 20+ years at it, Halo (and specifically, the first) is Microsoft's only real ace in the hole nostalgia bait. It's a testament to how they've run Xbox, which ideas were chosen to live and die and just how corporate the whole thing felt.
Given discussions about how Xbox Everywhere is basically a retreat from the space, it's fitting that MS goes out with a whimper using one of the only original properties they have.

I feel somewhat similar, though from what I've heard, it sounds like it won't be the same game exactly, it's not clear to me though. I was told it will have climbing and sprinting in it, which can drastically change the game play if that is true, and there may also be other things I haven't heard about.
I think after they have botched so many Halo releases lately, they've killed the brand and franchise pretty good. I feel like a lot of old Halo fans would have a hard time trusting them on this. Like MCC was such a complete disaster that my friend group kinda all gave up on Halo because that was totally unplayable on launch and barely playable for a long time after. By the time they even made it playable, so many people stopped playing that not only did it make getting matches difficult, it also meant that you couldn't get matches you want because of how matchmaking systems typically work, the fewer people there are, the less choice of options.
And from what I'm hearing from people who have worked for Microsoft in game development formerly and still have connections there, it sounds like the new remake is possibly going to be another technical disaster like MCC. I believe Halo Infinite also had a shaky launch from what one of my friends told me when they tried it, but I never tried it because my enthusiasm for that franchise is completely sapped.
I’m stoked as can be for this. I liked Halo Infinite’s art style a lot, seeing 343 double down and improving it makes me happy and ready to blow $50 on this.

Halo is remastered and now on Playstation! Kinda wild.
