Xbox, GameCube and Metal Gear Solid 2: Remembering One Massive Week

GamePro: Ten years ago today, the videogame industry had reached a turning point, and so had I.

I was in the middle of my first semester of college, just two months removed from the unspeakable tragedy of 9/11. I was beginning to get an inkling of what life had to offer. I had just started dating the girl that I would still be with ten years later.

Two new consoles launched that week; one was an attempt to redeem past mistakes, and the other was an attempt to build a foundation for the future. One of the most controversial sequels in gaming history was also released, which would be a turning point of its own.

I expect this to be announced pretty soon. Can't wait, this game was awesome. I wonder how of a remake it'll be though, hopefully not a remaster because we already have that lol.

S2Killinit141d ago

It needs to be a complete redo of graphics or else its not my cup of tea.

hennessey86141d ago

it will be running on unreal engine 5, so it will look good. The question is will it run as good as it looks

GenoPurpel141d ago

I think they teased it a few months back when they announced Halo studios. It does look quite incredible graphically but as Hennessy says above, how it runs is gonna be a different story given UE5 track record.

darthv72141d ago

it would probably be like the gears of war reloaded. Which was a remake of the remaster of the original.

...this gen is getting confusing with so many re-whatevers.

I completely agree with you and would add a VR mode as well🥺

abit weird.

Notellin140d ago

It's being shown at the Halo World Championships which they had already announced a few weeks ago.

Better reboot than another re-touch (remake after an already remaster) .... but 343/Halo is incompetent now, so .... guess this is best they can do with help of Coalition

So much memories with halo.
The original Xbox was my first console (actually 64 but barely played) and the first game was halo. Me and my brother use to play coop almost everyday.
We eventually traded in for a PS2 because of kingdom hearts lol

maximusprime_141d ago

I played the first 2 Halo games. That's Bungie's Halo.. I do not know whether 343's Halo is as good as Bungie's.

Either ways Halo is one of Microsoft's big franchises. So many rumours so it's becoming more likely it'll come to PS5

darthv72141d ago

Halo 3 is Bungie's game... so is Reach and ODST. 4, 5 & 6 (Infinite) are 343's. They aren't bad... just different. The original trilogy story ended and should have finished there. But MS wanted to 'Star Wars' this franchise and came up with new stories that sort of just sit there.

TheColbertinator140d ago

You haven't missed out much since Bungie left.

Halo CE Mod Adds a New Way to Play Co-Op in the Worst Way Imaginable

This Halo CE mod allows a new way to play co-op, but probably in the worst possible way.

spicelicka336d ago

This looks like cursed halo at its finest, love it. They need to bring mods to consoles.
