Ten years ago, the original Xbox launched with a title that revolutionized console FPS gaming and took off in student dorms everywhere.
The problem is even in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, the game is starting to show its age.

Halo: Combat Evolved has finally released on PC. Let's see how it runs and what PC gamers will need to run the game at 4K 60FPS.

After seeing that, I'm very very, impressed.
But as a playstation fan.
I'm not at all worried... Ps5 will match that with killzone, or any guerilla game, easily..
So just because you are a fan of playstation that mean you don't enjoy or play any games on other platform.
How are you impressed with this? Good thing is, its pretty old and runs quite well even on low specs GPUs. But its a last gen game. Got the whole collection and hopefully the later games will pick up the pace a little.
This isn't a bad review, but I have one complaint about it. It's SUPPOSED to show it's age. The game play mechanics and physics of this game weren't touched, only the visuals. In fact, we kind of knew about this for a few months before the game even released.
I do agree with one of his cons that the loading time between classic and remastered graphics can be a bit too long.
Halo1 is still a bloody amazing game. It's better than the excellent sequels too. Quirky perhaps when you frst go back to it but clearly still a very good game
I would argue that more could have been done to the anniversary version regards to content and that there are issues here and there with this conversion, but all i seem to read about is how it's aged- and frankly that's bollocks because it really hasn't- even up against the latest modern day campaigns. Halo1 was obviously a fluke
You get the definite impression half the reviewers never really played these games to death or that they aproach a review from the one playthrough of a game. I'm beginning to care less what these so called experts think these days
I love how i got the feeling of *crap i finished it* when the credits rolled. Its a true gem.
The Library level ...
Completely brilliant. If not the best example of HD port yet.
