One flag CTF on Zanzibar may be the most fun thing in all of gaming to me.

They could've charged $100 for this and I would've paid it EASILY.

Might be the most insane value ever in console gaming, all things included.

Hell I had forgotten about playlists and specific playlists...that's ingenious in itself.

Can't wait.

Re: Halo: The Master Chief Collection

I agree. I'm more excited about this than any game released or about to be released for X1. Not sure if it's just the nostalgia or legit anticipation for how well the maps will look using upgraded graphics. So pumped!

I have some fond memories of those Halo 2 maps.. especially Lockout.

Never really got into into Halo until I got a 360 and Halo3. But I love that they redid lockout on Halo3 and made it as an oil platform out in the middle of the cold ocean. It was one of the fun maps I ever played on Halo3. I'm counting down the days when me and my friend can once again go back to the fun days of Halo. When it was real fun before Halo Reach and Halo4 ruined the fun with stupid perks. Can't wait until November.

Medal System Added to Halo: CE and Halo 2, unified campaign scoring system in the MCC

"New medals have been added to both Halo: CE and Halo 2 for campaign and multiplayer," 343 told us. "There are nearly 100 unique medals in both Halo: CE and Halo 2. We felt this addition would make the multiplayer experience feel more modern and give players more ways to track their progress and style. For players who want a classic experience, medal display can be turned off for Halo: CE and can be toggled between off, classic medals, and modern medals for Halo 2 Classic. Campaign medals are awarded for enemy and style kills as part of the unified campaign scoring system, which is a new variation of the systems in Halo 3, ODST, and Reach."

Re: Halo: The Master Chief Collection

I'm flipping back and forth on this one almost weekly. My wife has offered to buy this and a One for me for my birthday. Not sure if this (and eventually Halo 5) will be worth an entire console for, but I do sure miss Halo 2 :wink:

Same here. I'm holding out though until there's a few more game I need the X1 to play.. I may go ahead and just get this and have it waiting for when I do get the system.
