Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Edition Exclusive Preview

[AvecOuSansVous]

>revolutionized the gaming industry as we know it

What? Halo was about as revolutionary as Duke Nukem 3D was.

[AgentX7Y]

when he said luigi's mansion, it was a good thing he said just kdding quickly after, I was about to leave.

[sev153]

ha luigies manshion! just joking! 

[familyguyrofl]

GRENADE!!!!

[sreddy117]

nice but did they make captain jeys look 20 years younger

[aperson30]

@sreddy117 yea, all they really did was make his hair more "realisticly grey" before it was like light, llight, light grey, now its just normal, and you cant really see his wrinkles.

[SUPERSTUD6000]

so its texture upgrade for an old classic.

seems like microsoft is taking notes from nintendo.

oh wait, the new legend of zelda and super mario clones still look like shit.

my mistake.

[use215]

Dear 343,

Please dont fuck up halo 4, were putting our trust in you.

Sincerely an original fan.

[MrGingerninjer1]

i wish they would put the map pack on a disc and sell it as not everyone has the internet & can't download it as easily.

[Snoopyfan250]

the switching is cool but takes too long while in battle

[gummylazerbears]

I remember playing truth and reconciliation and when those hunters came down that lift my mind went like: O FUCK O FUCK O FUCK IM SOO DEAD.

[gregoryjamesforr]

This is ridiculous. PlayStation remastered God of War I and II and sold if for less then a new game but this is gonna be full price. Sell it cheap for us fans.

[JJAB91]

@gregoryjamesforr CEA is not full price. It's $40

[ducklordgabe]

@gregoryjamesforr it's $20 less. which is nice, you get the maps for reach too.

[NeroMidlight]

why was master chief purple at 1:17

[vAGENTv0RANGEv]

@NeroMidlight Lighting DEEER

[Roflmatsz]

@NeroMidlight The lighting surrounding him gave a purple tint to his armor.

[Starwarsnerdgeek]

did i see a battle rifle ... OMFG

[GRAVEMIND344]

@Starwarsnerdgeek that was halo 2 gameplay idky they put it in there

[hotfoxpockets]

I CANT WAIT TILL TOMORROW :)

[xXcomedy147Xx]

i wonder what would happen on the kennect if you said "round house kick!"

[ace101guy]

Halo 1 & 3 were my favorite ones.

[MadMikeXD]

@ace101guy I'm sorry to hear that

[otaku750]

otakus thumbs up for the fanservice pun

[TheToonGamer]

OMG KEYES LOOKS LIEK GEORGE CLOONEH!!!!

[Poseidon1213]

Dude I just played Luigi's Mansion!

[ConnorGW]

Does any one else notice the little bump in the shields part of the HUD, I see it every time and it just bothers the fuck out of me.

[haloelitefan1]

Who else here thinks they should remake the entire original trilogy?

[miguelangelv7]

gay no pc remake hate how bungie went to the dark side of console only after halo 2

[XboxAnnihilator]

@miguelangelv7 Get over it. I'm sick of you PC gamers whining because you can't play your precious Halo anymore. Go buy a 360. It cost a quarter of how much you paid for your computer.

[miguelangelv7]

@XboxAnnihilator i already got a 360 noob and its crap compared to my pc gets the gay red lights had to fix it hater p.s. pc=master race heil PC ^^

[XboxAnnihilator]

@miguelangelv7 I just wanted to say that people who play on the 360 aren't a bunch of graphic whores who have this desire to play the best quality all the time. We play because we are perfectly fine with what we have already. You have a PC because you can't handle playing anything under 1080p and you just can't live without mods. That's actually sad, bro. You're entitled to your own opinion, just stop hating.

[miguelangelv7]

@XboxAnnihilator im not hating and if i was a graphic whore then i would have bought a gtx 590 which is at 323$ but i got a card for 60$ and gonna change it to one that is 150$ , i feel fine at a resloution of 1366X768X32 which isnt anywere close 1920X1080X32 so idk how your saying im a graphic whore i just play on pc because i have more fun othe pc community then i do on xbox hell like i said i have one just for gears of war and halo all my other games are on pc , i have more fun on my pc

[lucasbellows]

They should remake Halo Reach... so it's not shit any more.

[digimxx]

grreeenaaade... =O!!!! lol

[lol5043]

FINALLY THEY SHOWED THE SNIPER RIFLE AT 2:11 looks awsome!

[halo31004]

Wow, looks amazing

[STAT1CD3ATH64]

if they are going to do anniversarys for the halo games, only do the original xbox halo games (Halo: CE and H2) or only do the original trilogy (CE-H3)

[DutchPs3Gamers]

1:22 Thumbs up if you noticed that in the original video they did show the sniper but cut it here

[xCoolguy101x]

I saw multiplayer for this game before, and it looks no better than reach multiplayer.

[thePIANOman1397]

@xCoolguy101x It looks way better than Reach multiplayer, i cant wait the play the new playlist. With all the modified settings, it will feel more like Halo 3 and 2 multiplayer

[XxKidStorm8xX]

@xCoolguy101x it is reach multiplayer -_-

[Darx969]

@xCoolguy101x That's because it IS halo reach multiplayer u dumb shit!

[gamezonic]

343/Microsoft are the perfect people to continue Halo. Sorry but personally I think halo are better with level designing...

[WannaMeetTheMan]

@gamezonic I find it sad that people are bashing on Halo Anniversary simply because it's not a Bungie remake. 343i has proven from previews that they are capable of running the Halo series.

[gamezonic]

@WannaMeetTheMan i mean to say "Sorry but personally I think 343 are better with level designing" I'm on your side.

[OverjoyedCheeseTV]

@WannaMeetTheMan I agree

[sccandudz]

i can't wait

[ZeonPeon]

Adam!? What do you take us for, I think everyone spent their childhood system linking- Wait, what, there ARE people like that? Animals.

[MrSkiver]

lol is that Bionic from NFS high stakes being played towards the end of the preview? haha good to see that people down at G4 remember the classics and there awesome soundtracks, oh yeah and halo anniversary looks friggin amazing :)

[KevinTheCommentator]

People go harsh for halo 2 remake

[mufcsledge]

We don't want to wait to 2014 for a halo 2 remake fuck that we want it in 2012 before halo 4. If you want new people to get in to the halo series you need a halo 2 remake so they can play every halo game leading up to halo 4.

[m1c000l]

@mufcsledge yeah this christmas the only halo i'll be missing is halo 2 which would be weird

[vAGENTv0RANGEv]

@mufcsledge Or they can buy halo 2 for 5$

[ganargsjfhf]

@mufcsledge if they make a game so fast they would make a fucking game .i belive that 343 industries could have made anniverasry a much better game .without just enhancing the graphics they could have made the gameplay maps much bigger.

[godlynessdog]

@mufcsledge One word. Nostalgia.

[ZacEffron]

fuck PC it had lower resolution than the Xbox .

[justalot123]

So what if you don't have kinect and want to switch to classic? Will there be a option?

[WannaMeetTheMan]

@justalot123 Yes, you can hit the back button to switch

[ToaDrakua]

0:51 pause. EXTREME close-up on an elite's face.

[ThePrehistoricMen]

Halo 2 remake! That game deserves to be on 360!

[SwiftBuffaloEater]

I WANT ANNIVERSARY ALREADY!!!!!

[AsianTechie]

Well if they remake 1 they should remake halo 2 , you know it would be smarter if they remade those two games and sold them as package delayed until halo 4, then again thats just me

[Katarn343]

Halo 2 Anniversary in November 11, 2014....

Another Remake :DDDD?

[bkcolli]

i hope they make a halo 2 anniversary

[jlg1298]

@bkcolli That means we have to wait for a notable aniversary ):

[darthnick427]

@bkcolli I second that. bring the whole trilogy to the 360.

[iiLoveJesus94]

@bkcolli well 343 said maybe but as dlc theyll be developing halo 2 maps for anniversary like headlong that is already in anniversary and is a map of halo 2 so theres not too much posibility but we will have to wait 4 years for halo 2 anniveversary if it come out market but stop dreaming lol because what about if 343 dont do halo anniversary?

[TJkiwiOWEG]

@bkcolli Halo 3 anniversary. Halo ODST anniversary. Halo Reach Anniversary. errrrr

[ntcharp1]

@bkcolli 343 said if sales were good for Halo CEA were good, they'd remake Halo 2 =D I CANT WAIT!!!

[coontastico360]

@bkcolli there is demand for it but 343 doesnt have a real reason other than demand

[benny1332]

@bkcolli i doubt it.. :P

[that1dude0092]

@benny1332 they might consider remaking it

there was an interview and they said they might make one

[that1dude0092]

@bkcolli actually they said they might since there are questions from many halo fans

[LakittyCatRules]

@bkcolli A remake of Halo 2. if they make one, I will run outside naked.

[OrangeCounty92]

@LakittyCatRules They wouldn't do it sounds kind of like a dumb idea

[LakittyCatRules]

@OrangeCounty92 I'm pretty sure everyone would buy a Halo 2 remake. That game was orgasmic.

[TheFrogman117]

@bkcolli they said they want to, so im pretty sure they will.

[bobbyward24]

I love the explosion from the needler.

[Shol0100]

i thought the zealot looked pretty cool :)

[xSoothSayer11]

Its called battle creek.  Beaver creek was halo 2. Noob.

[DaMasterSarge]

I spent my early childhood making servers for Halo 1 PC. I never have been a big fan of Xbox...

[blackknightkanos]

This isn't a Halo remake, it's friggin' Halo remastered!

[ZWillis12]

@Freelancer1375 Are you stupid? There are skulls and terminals. Keep up.

[uliseto]

Halo Lives On

[noe1993jmsn]

YES SNIPER RIFLE

[iJesseee]

Luigi's Mansion FTW!

[robertchrismedd]

sniper at 2:10

[rafaelloaa]

It wasn't Beaver Creek. It was Battle Creek.

[9gamegeek9]

aahh man so many memories coming back :)

[TimeGlitchCentral]

Morgan doing a comedy bit? More please!

[satoncho]

oh morgan your so funny

[Gubreez]

what is with the music at the beginning....they should have used halo music -_-

[100percentjee]

So many memories... I miss being 7 now.

[OkThisllbeMyName]

That game was Luigi's Mansion

[splicer1508]

you people keep dislike reach all because it's not like halo 3 so fuck you

[Furmanov18]

Whats with the fuckin' hippetyhoppy?

[UniversalContinuity]

Wow... looking at halo one just reminds of how good halo used to be, to bad the series is nothing special now.

10-26-11 818pm

[resid3ntevilfanatic]

grenade... you start reloading instead. Why did I buy a kinect? BECAUSE THEY ARE AWSOME!

[Larfe517exe]

nah i spent my childhood cleaning out my slightly defective ps1 multitap

[BlueOneTrunk]

I like how nobody comments how one of the opening clips is from Halo 2. Or does nobody else spy the Battle Rifle?

[XForgotMyUsernameX]

@BlueOneTrunk u act like they did that on accident... no. they did it on purpose cuz its halo 2 gameplay of beaver creek, which is one of the remakes

[aidenmccloskey]

I'm definitely going to get this game. I haven't played any of the Halo games yet, so this is a perfect introduction.

[gravynate08]

@aidenmccloskey It is a perfect introduction, and I advise you to buy the rest of the halo's because they are awesome.

[aidenmccloskey]

@gravynate08 I will do. They're pretty cheap. I seen Halo: Reach being offered for £12 on Amazon. That's awesome!

[Xandersama]

Loved the Luigi's Mansion crack xD

[DEADLYAIM06]

Seriously, am I the only one who remembers that it was called Battle Creek? Beaver Creek was from Halo 2.

[rep5281]

If I was a Halo fan, I'd be all over this.

[iiHaVoKx]

I got a late start on the Halo train, but I look forward to playing through this, seeing how all my friends swear by it.

[XxsecretaznmanxX]

grenade. GRENade. grenADE. GRENADE!

[MrLeluch]

i did spend my childhood system linking xboxs together....

[Knoiv]

@MrLeluch snarf snarf

[ummmwhatnow]

When adam mentioned system linking xbox's together, my mind immediately went to all those weekends spent at my friends houses fumbling through cords and staring at those tiny boxes on the screen for hours at a time. Ah, the good ol' days.

[Teromi]

Seriously! if "Beaver Creek" "Hang em high" "Blood Gulch" or "Damnation" don't ring a bell to you, you are one deprived gamer.

[Teromi]

All fanboyism aside. I truly encourage all who never played the original to do so. Halo was a game that got it all right, a game changer. I remember the day 10 years ago when I got my Xbox along with this game, it was magical.

[suiton629]

@xplay So I guess this is Xbox 360's version of "HD Remaster" games, eh? Wow~ I am sincerely impressed at how much better the graphics look. I wonder if they're gonna remaster Halo 2 as well. That would be cool for Xbox 360 gamers. Too bad they couldn't fix up the animations on characters.

[NostalgicLink]

Everything looks great... except... man, what is up with Captain Keys' facial animation? That was horrible :-\

[stuie31]

G4 gets the exclusive... yet cannot get an HD stream....

[signupsigma]

I like Adam's voice. It makes me feel good.

[SomeoneNamedChris]

did that zealot , look like a zealot?

[IIFROSTFIREII]

I don't see how many people would even want to buy this. I read from a Bungee developer that they don't want to leave their new 'Halo: Reach' fanbase behind so this alleged remake is going to actually play like Reach.

Why would anyone do such a thing for a remake? I really do not know. If anything I would buy this to get something different than Reach because that game was just a mess IMO. Halo: CE was the best.

[black0193]

@IIFROSTFIREII You don't see why people would buy this? It's a remake of Halo CE, and many people, ones that aren't ignorant like you, are okay with a remake. Hell, they even have the option to switch between the old graphic styles, but apparently that isn't enough for people like you. Sure the gameplay isn't exactly the same as before, but most of the new stuff is completely optional. Oh and by the way, Reach wasn't a mess, it was a great game and a perfect send off for Bungie.

[aidenmccloskey]

@black0193 Reach was awarded GOTY and it received a 10/10 from IGN UK and Xbox Magazine. You tell that bitch!

[SonGoharotto]

@black0193 Actually, the gameplay is EXACTLY the same. It's the original CE engine, with only new graphics and remastered audio.

[ZWillis12]

@black0193 It's running on the same gameplay engine as the original, so it's gameplay is the same.

[123LNR]

@black0193 - People don't understand that to make a game, requires a shit load of work... they just expect without thinking about what the designers have to go through... they're selfish, self minded ass holes.

[F1NJP]

@IIFROSTFIREII Only the multiplayer is Reach multiplayer but with the title update that makes the multiplayer feel more like a mix between CE's and 3's multiplayers. The Campaign is still with exactly the same gameplay as it was 10 years ago.

[TSMxNation]

@IIFROSTFIREII you are a fucktard, lemme guess, MW3 fanboy?

[IIFROSTFIREII]

@TSMxNation

Not at all. I'm saying why make a Halo Combat Evolved remake when you are going to make the multiplayer like Halo Reach. The single play will remain untouched though.

[TSMxNation]

@IIFROSTFIREII yeeaahh, that is kinda the point of a remake. But they fully remastered it, and the multiplayer, which has favorites from CE on the reach engine

[IIFROSTFIREII]

@TSMxNation

When I say untouched I mean that they didn't alter the way it plays. It will look better though. But Reach left a bad taste in my mouth so I would just be disappointed if the multiplayer in CE-AE is like Reach. I haven't checked to see if there are any servers still going in at least 2 years. I may try that for the nostalgia.

[MrNick01]

@IIFROSTFIREII Sorry to tell you then... AE will use reach's engine for multiplayer. This was one of the first things announced.

[ArsenRANGER]

I hope they have Blood Gulch..

[IAmSamThatIAM]

Shitty game, shitty console, and after this comment a shitty fan boy going to reply back with rage. Hahahhaha!

[CPRES3]

@IAmSamThatIAM Halo revolutionized the way we play games, Xbox 360 has outsold ps3, and i'm no shitty fanboy. I'm just stating the facts. Now get the hell out of here.

[Teromi]

@CPRES3 He's just a PS troll, don't pay attention.

[IAmSamThatIAM]

@IAmSamThatIAM Congratulation, you're the first denying fanboy to reply. Don't forget fanboy the enjoyment of RROD and multiple of shitty games..

[sweetkittens]

@IAmSamThatIAM

RROD hasn't been effecting new 360 and also all three consoles have had some shitty games just don't include 360 because you don't like it.

I owned all three consoles and ps2 they all have their pros and cons

every consoles does as for Halo remake it looks okay and but want h RPG and uncharted 3 instead

[omgitzruffles]

damn to think i was nine when that came out

[xXRoman11Xx]

1v1 me hang em high pistols only.....bet you member that

[sparton1199]

funny.... i remember playing this game on the PC...... weres my fucking version?

[wongoli]

wow they really changed it up visually and i love how they kept the engine. Bungie you never fail to impress

[F1NJP]

@wongoli It seems there's still people like you out there who don't realize that Bungie isn't working on Halo anymore. Halo: CEA and all the future Halo games are made by 343 Industries.

[wongoli]

@F1NJP im talking about how far bungie achieved and inspire people aka EVERYONE aka the companies aka 343 industries. Sorry if your mental assumed Bungie changed up the visuals but yea theres a reason why i put they.

[JonathanShelton1]

Can't wait.

[SynysterCondom]

I remember when I was in High school, we had this Digital Electronics class where we would play Halo 1 on industrial strength computers. Everyone was connected through the same server, with ping times nearing zero. With 8 v 8 matches, zero ping and high end industrial machines, everyday felt like a LAN party.

[cabooses1fan]

i need a weapon

[shiv122]

I lol'd so hard @ lugi's mansion

[aboo612]

5 people are only gonna buy MW3 next year

[wongie26]

Lol morgan :)

[bmdshred77]

AI on this game was far ahead of anything else at the time. Sure it will be same. But who cares I finally get achievement for legendary.

[ThwartAbyss54]

When this releases theres going to be thousands of new videos on youtube of people just saying Classic Remastered Classic Remastered Classic Remastered I weep for the species.

[thegoldenmasterball]

Looks cool, but the gun positioning looks off

[Gibbagobba]

Well, I'm excited! Just hope the marine AI isn't as stupid...

[mikei4455]

Will the A.I be better?

[justwantwawmapsforbo]

COME TO SONY, YOU KNOW YOU WANT TO! WITH ALL THAT BLU RAY AND KEVIN BUTLER!

[robertchrismedd]

this voice mocks me

[Scarecrow896]

I cant believe xplay can still get an exclusive

[CONSOLETRUTH]

@ChadWardenTV not really unless she had work done. Just check out her bikini Maxim shoot photos an u will see what i mean

[ChadWardenTV]

@CONSOLETRUTH Well she used to weigh more, and she had more Fat in her Boobs, hence they were bigger!

[halo6534]

The biggest surprise of this thing......was the fact that G4s fucking videos finally work.

[mariostreak]

people its $40 not $60. Just wanna clarify that

[bauzer07]

@mariostreak THANK YOU!!!!! It really irks me when people keep freaking about the price "being $60" haha

[pet0023]

@mariostreak its $58 here in australia

[quicksilver2055]

@flystagg One penny.

[kill3rfurby]

They really have to say "We'll have our review for you"? We all know we're all gonna give it 5/5, unless there's some trolls here who hated the game to begin with...

[DSJeffers]

Did i see MC fart at :57 or.. what?

[TY11775]

@flystagg $40

[awesomelyludicolo]

no pc WTF

[kill3rfurby]

@awesomelyludicolo as of yet...

[PimpinFAR]

i dont hav a prob with this remake, im just sayin that only an IDIOT would spend full price to play the original when u can DL it for 10 bux
