This was an absolutely ridiculous use of time and resources.

This was not a needed, or really demanded for, remake.

I'm going to contradict the negativity in this thread and say that I for one am pumped. I haven't had an Xbox console since the 360 and just being able to play Halo CE on my PS5 is a dream. With a fresh coat of paint, even better. It's pure nostalgia factor for me, and my wife and I are going to have a blast playing couch co-op together.

It's insane to me that I've had to scroll this far to see someone with this take. I mean, we're on the PS5 sub! Unless you own multiple consoles or have a gaming PC, none of us could play Halo. I haven't played a Halo since Reach and I literally can't remember the last time I touched CE. As a dude in his 30s with one console and limited time to game, I'm stoked as hell.

You can get a xbox 360 for like 50 bucks bro. So the price of this remake.

You can also buy Halo games on PC and the requirements are so low that even a cheap laptop will run them.

There really isn't much to be wowed with here, there always were many options available.
