As long as they bring back couch coop. Honestly, that's what Halo was all about camaraderie and game play, not visuals.

I remember when Halo was first shown off and being amazed by the graphics. I thought it looked almost like pre-rendered graphics.

Funny how we're now in an age where the real time graphics look much better than the pre-rendered ones from back then.

Halo and halo 2 looked incredible for their times

Exactly. I bought it to play w/ friends. Shortly after getting Halo: CE, I played through the campaign with a friend in co-op, and we would frequently have XBox parties where we'd have couch tournaments and whatnot.

The visuals were fantastic for the time, but that's not why I got it at all, and none of my friends seemed to care what it looked like, we just wanted to play team deathmatch.
