Halo 2 Anniversary (confirmed as thing now)
So yeah, placing all bets on deployment state.
With GFWL dead, I'm doubting that they'll try and put out a PC version to make up for the maimed version we got all those years ago. Then again, if they do put it out and it has multiplayer capability then I dont see what would stop us from getting an actually useful editing kit.

Will be buying. Seeing as H1A didn't make a pc release I don't see why this would, but if they do come to there senses, I would 110% support it.
E: Let me be a little more specific, Will be buying for the MP if 343 doesn't decide to do some half assed halo 4 map pack type deal.

This might sway me to pick up an Xbox One to accompany my PS4.

Where was this confirmed?
Re: Halo 2 Anniversary (confirmed as thing now)
Yeah, what sources are there?
Re: Halo 2 Anniversary (confirmed as thing now)
Supposedly Halo 3 is going to be ported over to the Xbox One. They'd better release it on PC at the same time, given that it'll be easier than ever to do so.
Re: Halo 2 Anniversary (confirmed as thing now)
I think Halo 3 and 4 both refer to PC. I don't see why they would bring an epic enhanced Halo 2, then the same old halo 3 following it up.

Re: Halo 2 Anniversary (confirmed as thing now)
None the less I will be very happy if they decide to bring a new and improved Halo 2 with MP to either console or PC. Halo 2 was such a great era, and the multiplayer would probably bring in more players then halo 4 ever had. The game would be an instant financial success since Halo 2 was pretty much the pinnacle of Halo multiplayer imo.
Re: Halo 2 Anniversary (confirmed as thing now)
A decade ago: Halo 2 is awful!
Now: Halo 2 is the best Halo ever made, best! I want to superbounce and exploit other game-breaking bugs! I hope they don't dumb it down!
This pattern seems to repeat whenever there's a discussion about older titles in a series. I suppose parts of the community move on and those that were introduced to the series by a later game will end up looking at it through rose-tinted goggles.
In regards to Downes' comment, that has to be the least believable retraction I've seen. Either way, that's quite the foot-in-mouth moment.
