It's interesting that they are going to revamp the entire game to a fully dedicated server experience. It would be interesting to see what visual upgrades the Mighty Scorpio X beast will make these games run at. 60fps 4K seem to be the target for all titles. It would be a Halo fan's dream come true if this game gets put back into the spotlight, running stable and with better graphics. Looking at how Battlefield 4 was able to regather it's fanbase I am sure millions of Xbox One fans would be eager to try this updated title out again.

Nothing better than Halo MP brawling sessions.

I don't care about the MP but it'll be awesome to play the campaigns again in 4k. Bring it on.

Hey guys good games are Timeless. This big Halo Collection is certainly one of them. The campaigns, co-op and 4 player split-screen make up for exciting couch gaming.

Another old ass game being propped up for the bone x. Instead of focusing time and money on previously released broken games, why not make new ones nobody has played before?? Oh wait, ms lacks the skill and talent I forgot

Would love to wipe the dust off of the MCC and give the multiplayer a spin again. Halo 2 remains one of the greatest multiplayer games of all time.

@pdogg93: You dont play the 1400 multiplats also available on the Xbox One do you? It's all about those exclusive 10 hour campaigns right?

@jahnee: I would rather play on the console with the most diverse library of games including virtual reality. All these games being remade for the Xbox one x are merely efforts to divert attention from the fact that they have almost zero killer apps. That’s a fact jack

I love it. I have MCC digitally so it's just so convenient to switch between the games instantly. The free massive step up in graphics and performance is definitely something to get excited about. I am jubilant!

It only took 3+ years for the hope that it might not suck anymore. Yay!

I wouldn't say suck, I was playing it a year back and it was only ~2 minutes until you were in a game

Is the rumour that this is coming to PC at some point still alive? I'd really like to play through the Halo games again, but I'm unsure that I want to pull the 360 and Xbox out of storage.

That would be nice. Enjoyed Halo 2 and 3. Never tried the first one. If remade, I'll buy it. Along with 2 and 3.

Sadly no. That rumor was already debunk back in October 2017, MS has no intention of bringing it to Windows 10. But the good news is, Halo 6 is coming to PC, so it looks like we'll have to go with that.

Can't say I blame MS for not bringing MCC to PC, Halo games are the only reason to ever buying an Xbox consoles to play Halo. I don't like it, but I can understand the concept :(

Normally, I would strongly advocate towards building your own. With the recent inflation in GPU prices, a prebuilt system is a better choice anyways.

@sHaDyCuBe321: Pre-build PC is the obvious choice. Laptops are also okay.

I bought a new computer about 6 months ago. I was trying to decide between a prebuilt laptop or a self-assembled laptop. I went with the laptop for the sake of simplicity, and the portability of it (I work as a truck driver, and take it with me on the road to play games and watch movies/shows)... and now that I'm seeing GPU prices (I was looking at building a budget desktop to start, then upgrade later) I'm glad I decided to go with the laptop.

Years too late for me for MP, but if it makes It possible for the SP to get ported to PC, I’d consider it.

Cracks me up to see cows bring this up and ignore the phenomenal SP experience that works amazing in one package instead of a bunch of remasters.

All they do is bash the MP component (when cows prefer sp games anyways)

Terrible arguments

I'm going to be a grinch here, or maybe the voice of reason.

But you'l be playing the same game... every so slightly sharper.

You think they've spent all this time working on the MCC update just for a resolution bump? lol, your naivety is kind of cute.

There won't be any game remakes but there will be a fucking shit ton more than just a res bump have you not seen what they did with Halo 5 on the X? It's like a completely new game by all accounts.

Back when MCC release, I too never had an issue with the Campaigns and not only that, I pick up MCC just for the Campaigns only. I was already burned out Halo CE to Halo 4 MP, so the MP shutdown never ever bother me at all. The only issue I had with the Campaign was Halo 2 saves but that was hardly an issue, but other then that, MCC Campaigns was worth the price I enjoy revisiting.

I'm jealous of the people who never had a problem with the campaign. Last time I tried, halo 3 played so choppy I gave up on playing it altogether. Maybe I'll revisit it.
