Halo: Combat Evolved Remake Coming This Year

by Eric on February 10, 2011

I remember the first time I played Halo: Combat Evolved at an EB Games store in 2001 – where I incidentally spilled a nearly full frozen mocha in front of the Xbox demo area while trying to kill an Elite.  I bought an Xbox shortly thereafter for that one game.  I bought an Xbox 360 in order to play Halo 3 and, most recently, Reach.

Bungie made what I consider the most memorable game ever.  And now, it looks like Halo: Combat Evolved, the game that started it all, is coming to the Xbox 360 in its full HD glory (and maybe 3D too?). [click to continue…]

Halo Reach Multiplayer Map

Halo: Reach multiplayer beta is just around the corner – May 3.  IGN has the scoop on the new maps with plenty of screenshots and a big interview with Chris Carney and Lars Bakken from Bungie.

While we’re all stoked about getting our hands on some fresh Halo action, it’s clear from reading the interview that we’re all going to be a bunch of guinea pigs as well while Bungie use data from our game play to make the final release of Halo: Reach a better experience for everyone.

May 3 game on.
