All of the Halo 2 maps will get 'the anniversary treatment" along with 5 Halo 2 maps that will become "re-imagined" maps. There will be custom game options if you only want to play Halo 2, but no playlist is Halo 2 exclusive. (at this time at least)

I can't wait to play 100+ maps all in 1080p 60fps Not only that, but all on dedicated servers! :DD

Welcome to the Community! I'm very excited about Halo 2 Anniversary as well, hope to see you around the Community!

Great spot! I think this leans heavily in favor of either weapon customization, or a new BR in Halo 5. We likely won't know until the demo, when we actually get to jump into matchmaking.

I'm guessing that you'll be able to edit your armor and have specific armor sets available to use for each game. A few new armors wouldn't hurt either.

Microsoft had a very strong press conference this year. The Master Chief Collection was easily the strongest portion of their press conference. I'm very excited for this fall. Great recap P34nut!

The Master Chief Collection was officially announced at E3 during Microsoft's Press Conference, here are the details: The Master Chief Collection will include Halo CE, Halo 2, Halo 3, and Halo 4. The game will be accessed by a master queue that will have all the levels from every campaign unlocked from the very start. There will be specific playlists for playing different levels in a variety of different ways. The Master Chief Collection's multiplayer will run at 1080p, 60 FPS, on dedicated servers. Every map from Halo CE to Halo 4 will be included. That's over 100 multiplayer maps! Along with 4,000 Gamerscore. This includes the ability to switch between the original and updated graphics in Halo CE and Halo 2 and will also be the very first time to play Halo CE Online Multiplayer. (On your Xbox Console) It is also important to note that Halo CE and Halo 2 multiplayer will be the EXACT same as when it first shipped. The Master Chief Collection will also ship with Halo Nightfall and Halo 5: Guardians beta access. Watch the video below to see Halo 2 Anniversary Multiplayer and a sneak peek at the Halo 5 beta. http://youtu.be/jVPjo8uROkw The Master Chief Collection ships on Xbox One November 11, 2014.

I actually really, really like the way this design would work. I felt like the Mantis was a bit dull, but this would be a great vehicle! It could be the UNSC's attempt at using Forerunner tech (such as particle beams, incineration cannons, hardlight) in a vehicle. I would also like to add that I think it should have variants, similar to how the wharthog has variants. There could be one that replaces the incineration cannon with a small boost similar to that of the wraith, and the other would have the incineration cannon but not the boost. Great post!

This is really more of a spin-off installment, it's not acting as BF5. It is, in my opinion, a filler for EA to get bring in more cash while they work on BF5. Halo did this with Spartan Assault, ODST(This one's debatable), and Halo Wars. I find nothing wrong with it. If EA wants to release more titles, under the Cops and Robbers theme, I'd be happy to buy.

I really like both, but the Rocket Launcher (in Halo 4 at least) feels really powerful. The two are very similar, but if I'm not mistaken, the launcher's projectile travels more quickly than that of the Fuel Rod's. My vote goes for the Rockets.

It's actually 5 hours ahead of EST Really excited about this year's E3, I can't wait to see MS's and EA's press conferences. #haloandstarwarsbattlefrontwhat

I'm pretty sure as a developer, that's what you're supposed to do. If you finally get your newest game the way you wanted it, you shift focus away from it to a new title. Battlefield Hardline has been in the making for the past two years, I don't understand why you have a problem with them releasing a new game.

Ben 10. I absolutely loved Ben 10, with Alien Force being my favorite installment. I have a pretty large collection of the action figures still, 70+ of the 6' in. action figures last time I counted.

Really hyped for this game, I will definitely be buying come this October. As far as how quickly it's being released, I like the theme too much to not consider it. I don't really think it will held back in many regards, if any. I'm really looking forward to this title. Great Article P34nut!

EA's Sports games do this because of the way that the seasons are named. The season in the NFL and FIFA are named according to the year they end in, so Madden NFL '15 will feature players and stadiums used in the 2014-2015 season. The same rule applies with FIFA.

As big a fan as I am of NFL football, I find the FIFA games very fun. I've yet to buy one, but ya never know... Great reporting P34nut, big news for FIFA fans no doubt

SikSlik, I absolutely love this idea! I can't wait to begin work on this with the community, absolutely great, 10/10 Slik!

Put me down for #7, I should be back in town in time for it.
