Halo makes its debut on PS3?

According to the gaming blog, the remake of Halo will use all-new art assets and will be based on a different engine than Halo: Reach. It will support 1080p and--reportedly--3D HDTVs, as well as online co-op. The original Halo: Combat Evolved supported only local split-screen co-op.

Two big giveaways indicate that Halo HD might be released on the PS3. We all know all the Halo games are subHD and never achieved full HD, M$ and bungie are no longer exclusive partners, and the Xbox isn't capable enough like the PS3 to render a full 3D game.

If this is true, M$ has lost another one of its biggest franchises.......

Bungie has nothing to do with this remake... M$ does. Now, why would they make their best franchise available on PS3?

MS owns Halo, so it's not possible.

Doesn't MS OWN the Halo IP? That means they cannot possibly lose it, unless they want to :P.

Here one big giveaway that it will not MS OWNS HALO AND ANYTHING WITH THE NAME HALO ON IT. But hey you can play Flopzone 3 LOL

@ TC...

WOW... peoples lack of knowledge on these forums continues to astound me. So MS is gonna let Halo be put on their rivals machine??? Yah... right after God of War 3, Gran Turismo5& Killzone 3 move over to the X360... :P

It's common knowledge at least amongst gamers... that MS owns Halo, not Bungie.

Like everyone else on this topic said MS own the Halo IP and it might not even come to PC like the original

Nice sig :P

I don't understand the logic behind you linking those two points with the PS3. They're both supported on the X360 as well :?

lol, 1080...........Its just upscaled 480i.

I know you are probably joking and I laughed!!!!!! Your reasoning behind your statement was hilarious, if you aren't well MS owns the Halo IP.

Ok for one the 360 CAN run 3d games and also it CAN play hd games, but the biggest problem tc is that Ms OWN the Halo ip.Duckyindiana

What he said.

Not possible. Bungie and MS may not be together but MS still have the rights for Halo. The only way for Halo go go to the PS3 is for MS to allow it to.

I don't know about that, Killzone and Resistance does fairly well on the PS3 :P

According to the gaming blog, the remake of Halo will use all-new art assets and will be based on a different engine than Halo: Reach. It will support 1080p and--reportedly--3D HDTVs, as well as online co-op. The original Halo: Combat Evolved supported only local split-screen co-op.

Two big giveaways indicate that Halo HD might be released on the PS3. We all know all the Halo games are subHD and never achieved full HD, M$ and bungie are no longer exclusive partners, and the Xbox isn't capable enough like the PS3 to render a full 3D game.

If this is true, M$ has lost another one of its biggest franchises.......

If you want to get technical, the 360 has more games running in higher resolutions than the PS3. Whatever information your trying to pass off is completely and utterly wrong. The 360 does have games running at 1080. So basically, your lying
