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

Definitely enjoying this so far, loving the environments, not so much the glitchiness in the cutscenes and some lack of detail in the textures. Definitely like the sounds, and the Rocket Launcher made me jizz. Overall, made me actually want to play through the entire campaign again xD

the camo looks like a mix the nvidea gfx card glitch on PC combined with the ATI card camo look.

it's like in between.

it's weird.

Pooky, I think you are remembering Halo 1 multiplayer as being faster than it really was. It wasn't that fast. In fact, it was damn slow compared to contemporary games. Halo 2, 3, and Reach all have a faster pace.

Am I the only one amused by the fact that we refer to the campaign levels by their map file names rather than by their given names?

The camo shows the edges and vertices that are on the opposite side of the weapons and the bipeds from the view of the player.

I've always secretly been annoyed by it. It's too inside, unnecessary, and it always takes me a second longer to figure out what anyone is talking about.

But don't stop doing it on my account. Just don't anyone ever ask a developer that worked on the game about a level and refer to it by those names. He or she won't be impressed. You might even receive a Nelson Muntz-style punch to the stomach, complete with finger point and laughter. I'm pretty sure Marty carries a shiv for just such a breach of etiquette.

Oops :X.

I always forget what is what, so I have to do a double take. I always figured that it was done out of laziness for typing names like "Assault on the Control Room" or "Truth and Reconcilliation." "Halo" is the shortest name, but you run the risk of confusing with the game's title or the franchise as a whole when you say that. It's also the name of the final level in Halo 3.

I only get confused after the b levels. After that I have no effing idea what is what. I usually take a wild guess, but I'm pretty sure I'm wrong most of the time.

I also hate hearing "Battle Creek" referred to as "Beaver Creek." Fuck. Beaver. Creek. Carousel is cool, though.

It was beaver creak in the first game, not battle iirc
