Adrenaline Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 Why would they not do this?! Bring out a full version of Halo 2 downloadable off the XbL Arcade. They did this for Halo 1, but Halo 1 has no online matchmaking, It would be awesome for Halo 2 to come back online. It would not be hard at all and it wouldnt be that big of a hit but would a good bit of people playing it. They would easily make enough money on it to run the servers. There is no reason not to!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Biggles Posted December 17, 2011 Report Share Posted December 17, 2011 they could, but, then when halo 3 goes offline people will want an arcade version of that too. so, for now, they should just stick with Halo 1. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr. Welldone Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Or maybe they should just make Halo 2: Anniversary... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CandiBunni Posted December 18, 2011 Report Share Posted December 18, 2011 Or maybe they should just make Halo 2: Anniversary... That might pull some of the budget from Halo 5 or 6 if they do so. I'd rather they focus on the new trilogy first, then worry about any further remakes. I wouldn't mind seeing a remake of Halo 2, but I'd like for it to be polished up if they did create a remake. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DaveAtStateFarm Posted March 31, 2012 Report Share Posted March 31, 2012 Or lord that's great, but with this generation, new consoles, games. Would anyone even think about going back so far? Atleast an arcade remake, seems nice. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Archangel Tyrael Posted April 3, 2012 Report Share Posted April 3, 2012 Next console i hope, remade, after this trilogy is over, want them to have their full attention and resources on it. It would be agood addition, since halo1 is on arcade. I support you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Director Posted April 9, 2012 Report Share Posted April 9, 2012 I would love to be able to play the entire Halo series again. However, since my Halo 2 has gotten REALLY old it no longer works So now, I can only play EVERY OTHER HALO GAME EXCEPT 2! There's something very very wrong with that if you ask me. >.> Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
iProFrom559 Posted April 10, 2012 Report Share Posted April 10, 2012 It's not possible. For one, because, it just wouldn't be the same as the original on the Xbox <3 Glitches, BxR's, BxB's, Sword Canceling, Rocket Canceling, Butterflying, Super Bounces. All of those wouldn't be in the arcade version. It just wouldn't be the same <3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Twinreaper Posted April 11, 2012 Report Share Posted April 11, 2012 Actually iPro that is completely false. Halo 2 could be an arcade game very easily. In order for Halo 2 to become an arcade game, they would have to write a brand new emulator to be compatable with the current dashboard and library of the code base. The only thing that would be missing from the arcade title, would be the matchmaking. Matchmaking would require the studio to update or re-write the netcode to be compatable with current version of Live. The whole reason Halo 2 was taken down to begin with was because fo the nagging time and resources it took to update the emulation and to keep it's netcode compatable with the evolution of the Live platform. Once it became no longer possible to keep every title supported in terms of direction and progress, 1st generation xbox titles had to be removed. The only reason Halo 2 pc still works is because the version of Live in use, is designated and designed to provide only a shell form of friend contacts and direction for your gamertag. In no way shape or form does Live direct, control or directly utilize the halo 2 resources. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLOOD 0F GANON Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 This is actually a neat idea. The file size isn't the massive either like Halo 3 or Halo reach. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KyoKusagani1999 Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 Halo 2 as an Arcade Game? I know everyone's talking about XBOX Live arcade, but I'll have to look into the possibility of what Halo might have looked like if it was Created by Toaplan in the 90's... Halo Zero was an impressive 2D piece of art, And I'm sure it'll work out with the wide assortments of assets to the universe. The only thing we're missing is a Marquee, and the "WINNERS DON'T USE DRUGS" screen only visible in the US version. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Undead Posted April 30, 2012 Report Share Posted April 30, 2012 I would love a remake of this game like Halo CEA. I wouldn't want it to be an arcade game though, I'd want a physical copy so I can put it on the shelf with all my other Halo stuff that I'm collecting. Plus they could bring back the multiplayer if it was a full game and they could put a lot more achievements in the game. Plus Halo 2 with enhanced graphics would be pretty amazing.

Destroyaaa Posted June 12, 2012 Report Share Posted June 12, 2012 The games graphics are too outdated anyway, itd be better if there was a remake Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Snipeside Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 they could, but, then when halo 3 goes offline people will want an arcade version of that too. so, for now, they should just stick with Halo 1. Halo 3 should never go offline. As long as Reach is up and running, Halo 3 should also be. At least I can only hope from whats been proven.

Snipeside Posted June 26, 2012 Report Share Posted June 26, 2012 Or maybe they should just make Halo 2: Anniversary... I don't think I'd be in favor of H2:A Mainly because I'd prefer to play the ACTUAL Halo 2 with the ACTUAL Halo 2 engine. I'm not complaining and saying I don't like HCE:A But I'm not a fan of it either. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bighungry2x Posted June 27, 2012 Report Share Posted June 27, 2012 Very interesting, but I personally would like to see H2 Anniversary. I see Anniversary happening more than an arcade game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
chifton Posted July 19, 2012 Report Share Posted July 19, 2012 This would be a great idea. Just Matchmaking only though. Its up to 343 according to xbox live support. I WOULD PAY FOR IT!
