Halo: Anniversary - The Halo 1 remake (fuck anyone who calls it "halo ce" remake)

You haven't heard Amit? In the remake, Keyes survives and adopts a grunt. Oh, whoops, forgot to put a spoiler warning before that.

Im excited to see the way the game looks with modern graphics :P Sorry if that is surprising to you...

"All the things we've learned in 10 years of making Halo."

And what should be at the top of those lessons learned, 343I? DO. NOT. FUCK. WITH. THE. FORMULA.

They haven't xD

Like Bobblehob said, I'd want to wait to see everything for myself while playing it to have a nice surprise rather than see all the new graphics on a shitty off screen video.

If custom, mo-capped 3rd person animations appear during cinematics I'm fairly certain 343i will be burned to the ground.

We've already seen that they have attempted it. I'm pretty sure they will try to ram it through rather than cut their losses when it comes to the motion capture in cutscenes.

Apparently, only a pretty small team has been working on it (and then, an even smaller part of that is from 343i), so the quality of such things like cutscene anims may just be due to insufficient or incompetent manpower.

Maybe they recorded the mo-cap with...the Kinect :3

Do the 3rd person animations from the original game not work in the new engine?

They could do what anyone else in the Custom Edition community does and use the JMA importer/exporter to put 'em into 3ds Max and go off from there. It shouldn't be that hard.

I'm sure the 3rd person animations do work, but they don't really look that great compared to today's standards, so I can see why they'd make new ones.
