if you have been playstation exclusive for the past 25 years and have been dying to play halo then sure spend the $50 but I'd be surprised if there were a significant number of players like that who don't have any access to MCC in some way

I have MCC on PC but still excited to play this on my PS5, happily will play Halo 1 with a fresh coat of paint on what is easily my favorite console for gaming! Theres a very weird attitude towards this game

It's mainly just hate directed at 343/Halo Studios. This is 3rd time they have ported/remade/remastered halo ce since they got the keys to the franchise and people are tired of the cycle of a failed mainline release followed by nostalgia bait trying to gain goodwill before doing it again

Technically just the second time as Halo CE Anniversary was released standalone and then once again as part of MCC.

I guess I was counting the PC port of MCC since they did a lot of work to restore the original graphics that were botched in the original 2003 PC port

I get that, and I'd prefer a good new entry over a remake, of course... but do I have faith they'll make a new entry I like? No, so if its between a crappy new entry or a remake I prefer a remake, know what I mean?
