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.
I thought about just totally ignoring this as more money-milking, but if Halo 2 Anniv utilizes its own multiplayer, I might reconsider. It's not a guaranteed buy for me if that does happen though, just a consideration.Quote:

If they - I suppose it's Certain Affinity - can pull off that same thing, I'll definitely want to get the game. Seeing as how a good portion of the crew that worked on some of the Halo 2 maps and DLC now work at CA, I have higher hopes than I did with HA10 and Sabre Interactive.
EDIT: Apparently Certain Affinity did the Blastacular Map Pack for Halo 2 (the only one I didn't get a chance to play, but!), so a good remake of Tombstone and Desolation won't be too far from imagining.
Where was this confirmed?
From the Chief's lips of course.
Still take everything not stated through an official source (i.e., Microsoft, 343i) with a grain of salt.
Yeah, what sources are there?
Expect Halo 3 Anniversary in November of 2017. :v
But back to the sources, I did say grain of salt. But with Microsoft trying to shut up those going about giving away yet unrevealed information, that's plenty suspicious though. I'm also aware that my last post said, "Chief said Halo 2, and so there was Halo 2." but I didn't dig down further until a short while ago. :v
Again though: salt in hand. Until an official statement from Microsoft or 343i comes out, we won't know one way or the other.
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.
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.
