[=sw=warlord]

A true master collection deserves a master system to play on.

I'm betting those remasted H2 maps are based in H4, which is how they inherit the Forge capabilities. In which case, there will be no 'press back for classic mode'.

Turns out Ruffian Games are the ones who worked on the XBO port for Spartan Assault. Makes sense they would work on the H3 and H4 ports. What's interesting is that all of these games originally last ran on DX9 and in 32-bit. Now they're on the XBO, meaning DX11/12 and 64-bit (there's no 32-bit 'emulation' like with Windows IIRC). I wonder if we'll be able to sv_say with these new dedicated servers

I hope they do a post-mortem on their adventures in making the MCC, especially when it came to the tech.

I think it is worth noting that this infographic probably isn't actually official (I raised an eyebrow at that Regret quote at the end) http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost...ostcount=18298

All of that for $60 is actually a damn steal. Like holy shit that's really good holy hell wow. I mean I already have everything but I still want to get this.

Will eventually buy an Xbox One, still deciding on that. Maybe this holiday, who knows? I'm mainly waiting for Witcher 3 but I do want to play the beta.


Guess the Wii U will have to keep waiting until Zelda :[

To be very honest, I think the Master Chief collection is really what is going to tip a lot of old Halo fans into getting the XBone. Even my heart is being wrenched. Halo 1 & 2 co-op+ MP over the webz! ARRGGHHH.
