MS can detect consoles which are incompatible with the new format and will automatically (if connected to LIVE) contact the user informing them that they can send in their old box for a newer one. And it's for the really, really old boxes. Like 2005 old.
It wouldn't really be "a lot" of modifying to the engine. It's just a pipeline issue, which is abstracted from the rest of the engine since it only sees game data as tags and tag resources (there's blob data, but that's for runtime systems). If you use a different engine, you have to then deal with that engine's shortcomings and also transfer ALL content AND data to its format then RETEST everything because it's an entirely different product. You won't see non-map DLC in Reach (unless they do something in a TU), but you'll probably see such with Bungie's next game.

That theory is also shit, because you never seen any shields flaring, popping, or sparking in that entire scene. They didn't think it through at all.
I know this was ages ago now but when did the BR make an appearance in ODST? A cutscene or something? D:
NVM just recalled the actual scene it was in heh.
A sony/microsoft project would end in disaster. Royalties, arguements, to be honest.. It's great to theorise, but I doubt really applying two companies of their stature would work.

you mean like the Halo movie with Universal and 21st century Fox?
Re: Kinda shocked no one posted about this yet...
I'm not sure if this one has been through the spin cycle of this thread yet.
What got me the most was "six multiplayer maps and one firefight map".
This one also got my attention.
Frank better know what he's doing or I am going to be beyond pissed.

It failed. Because the companies bickered about the budget. :downs:
Re: Kinda shocked no one posted about this yet...
they better remake halo 2 in a couple of years or i'll be pissed.
But instead of it's crappy campaign remake the multiplayer it was honestly my favorite.
Re: Kinda shocked no one posted about this yet...
I'd actually rather not have Halo 2 remade. I mean, we're fine as it is with new Halo games coming out as often as they are, we don't need a remake of a game that's so similar. Halo 1 is being remade to celebrate the beginning of the franchise as well as the fact that so many people want it, which is much more than the people who want Halo 2.
