Halo 2 Anniversary is it actually in production? Find out below… please include your feedback on this article. Thanks
OPENING STATEMENT
By now most, if not all have noticed this ‘I Live Bees 2.0’ on Halo Waypoint or twitter. I already starting thinking that if it is a remake, or reboot of ‘I Love Bees’ ARG game… it would have something to do with Halo. But since it is the apparent anniversary of Halo 2, the original ‘I Love Bees’ marketing project, I say that it is a fair chance we will see Halo 2: Anniversary… or Halo: Anniversary 2, for conceptional purposes… ie Halo: CE Anniversary is also named Halo: Anniversary.
Also there are other informational clues which we gathered, along the way…
> 343 Industries and Microsoft stated they have discussed a Halo 2 Anniversary, yet it was about the right time for the franchise… they didn’t state it wasn’t planned, for a 2014 release, and proved that they are thinking about it… not for the profit, but for the experience.

> 343 Industries stated that we are working on four projects, two of which you know about, Halo Xbox One and the Halo TV Series, and two we don’t (insert zero clues here).

> When Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary was planned, 343 Industries gave the development, to Saber Interactive, and told them you have a year to remake this game with High-Definition graphics… they made a proxy engine, allowing for simultaneous graphics, classic and remastered. Also the game, Halo: Anniversary was only announced 4 months prior to release… Halo: Anniversary announced at E3 2011, releases November 15th, 2011. So using this data, we can assume we will get a final answer at E3 2014… of whether it is in-fact in production.

> A person on twitter had asked Certain Affinity, if Halo 2 Anniversary, was in-fact, in production… to which they replied We have a lot of irons in the fire." And later they digressed and they pleaded the 5th Amendment.

> There is also a request, or job opening, at 343 Industries for a developer who would be working on a Halo ‘AAA’ game… AAA games are usually the big sellers… in this case a Halo AAA is a main title, so that would only leave Halo 2 Anniversary and Halo 5.

> And now with the twitter update from Major Nelson… about bees, and then being replied by the Graeme Boyd, Social Marketing Director at 343 Industries… seems intriguing at best… but the fact that it coincides with the 10th Anniversary of Halo 2, the original marketing target… seems very coincidental.
