Halo: Combat Evolved - Anniversary

This is one amazing game, a must for anyone with an x-box 360 and especially if your a fan, the graphics are a hundred times better than they were back ten years ago, the visual effects that are added look spectacular, every aspect of the levels no matter how small look crisp and modern, its still the same awesome game play you remember but polished and shiny new, you can switch between the original graphics ten years ago at any time during the game by pressing the back button and its very impressive to see the amazing difference, all weapons and vehicles look awesome the way they did in halo reach, the multiplayer maps have been re-designed too making them look like they were made yesterday, amazing detail added to everything, you can also play a forge world on several maps and there is a firefight brand new map too, this is without doubt a breath taking experience you will be blown away, 343 industries have released an amazing game and I cant wait to see what they bring to halo 4 in 2012. This is a must buy at any cost.

I've been a Halo fan for a very very long time (got the original game on day of release and even skipped school for it) but this was a massive disappointment, the graphics are reasonable but far from the recent releases of HD quality, the controls are slow to respond and far from reliable (my example is in crouching, fine when i want to crouch but trying to go into combat where MC decides to crouch of his own accord and throw off my shot is a pain in the A$$).

Luckily i only rented this game from a local shop and not paid full price for it or i'd be absolutely raging about now.

Would not recommend this in the slightest unless u have very low expectations or are easily impressed.

this is the 2 time i have play this game it is amazing must buy for xmas

Halo set the standard for FPS shooters - establishing a true sandbox way to play. You start a open level and you choose how to get the the end. COD came along and threw that great gameplay idea out the window t maximise the set pieces.

Halo is all about the gameplay -its a great remake and for anyone who is tired of the COD formula a great reason to get involved in one of the best FPS in gaming history. The multiplayer is amazing with regular updates and new gamemodes each month - a must buy

I'm pretty sure that what made Halo fun was playing with your friends, both without lag and with more than one other. This game only has 2 player online co-op, something alien to the Halo franchise - you would think a company devoted to making Halo fans happy should at least have given the game 4 player online co-op, which had not lag issues (WHICH IT DOES).

You would also think that the graphics would be on-par with the most recent Halo Game, Halo: Reach. The graphics are of a very low standard compared to this and don't even stand up to the graphics of Halo 3, which was released in 2007.

Overall a huge disappointment for the Halo franchise and 343 Industries.

I advise getting the original Halo: combat Evolved on PC instead, where you can actually play with your friends together.
