I think a Halo 2 remake should be an exact copy of Halo 2 with upgraded graphics, theater, and a spectator mode. I know 343 wants to please both casuals and competitive gamers, so this is a no brainer. I don’t buy the “having both games online will split the community” stuff because all the money goes to 343 anyway.
I’d love to see Halo 2 get a HD re-make.
Was blown away with CEA, just wished it had it’s own mp instead of Reach’s. However I totally understand why it didn’t. Technically it just wasn’t possible.
I’d rather they just do a Halo 2: Anniversary
I get to play Halo 2’s campaign (Can’t do it on my computer, I blame Windows 7) and we get some sweet maps for Halo 4.
Win/Win IMO.
I wouldn’t mind it, but I wouldn’t play it much because I would be focused on Halo 4 or 5, whichever would be the one out at the time.
Anniversary is just a filler, and according to 343i, it is a way to get the first Halo out to new gamers and those used to good graphics, as well as a way to introduce Halo to new people before Halo 4 comes out.

Yes exactly what Ranger Onyx said and… I’d rather have a huge population in one game than a smaller split population over two games. Plus if it has halo 4 multiplayer than you could easily play the halo 2 maps on the halo 4 disc, something I really liked with CEA yes it is a small bonus but I really appreciated it. I hope 343i really do a halo 2 anniversary, because if it’s anything like the standard CEA was then it will be just mind boggling.

Yes lol, your post is off topic isn’t it. Were talking about halo 2 and your talking about locking threads. Much off topic indeed. 
If they remade Halo 2 they’d probably only remake the Campaign.
Halo 2 Anniversary’s Campaign should get the Same Exact treatment it did in Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary…
The Multiplayer (To save, Time, Money, Space, And Resources) Should be a Copy and Paste of Halo 2’s original multiplayer and Engine. Although The Multiplayer could at least get the same improvements that Halo 2 Vista Got. But to a Greater Extent…
Halo 2 Annivesary (More From Campaign)
…
I hope they do make a Halo 2 remake. It was probably my favourite campaign after Halo 3’s. I’d love to see everything in beautiful graphics.
But then again, I’d rather them do the best that they can in Halo 4, 5 and 6.
It will most likely come out after halo 4 and include halo 4’s multiplayer.

I could understand them not making Halo 1’s multiplayer b/c of technical issues, but Halo 2 is widely regarded as one of the greatest multiplayer games of all-time, and it already has a matchmaking system that just needs to be turned back on. If people thought not including Halo 1’s multiplayer was bad, then I couldn’t imagine how people would react to no Halo 2 multiplayer especially since there are no technical issues keeping it from happening.
When/if this game does ever release, it will happen 1 year before Halo 5’s release (assuming it release for H2’s 10th anniv. and H5 releases 3 years after H4) so population issues aren’t a problem since people will be moving on to Halo 5 together not long after that.
Also, if Halo 4’s multiplayer is good then we won’t have to worry about a splitting population b/c people would rather play Halo 4. This didn’t happen w/ Reach simply b/c it wasn’t a great game and couldn’t have handled more players leaving it to play HCEA’s multiplayer had they created one.
I would not want them to recreate H2 multiplayer. Perhaps adding gametype options to recreate the “feel” like Dual weilding with certain weapons and player traits that mimic H2s. Other than that I feel like they took the right path with CEA. Maybe they could bring the original H2 back online so all you nostalgic people can get it out of your system.
I absolutely believe a halo 2 remake should be a full reboot stand alone piece with its own mp. I for one would want them to look into what bungie originally wanted in the campaign. I don’t know if you guys remember but bungie was disappointed in their final product. I’d really like for 343i to bring back that whole idea of fighting for earth. I was let down with the campaign just a little. I know that won’t probably happen. But just sayin…
no. Halo 2’s multiplayer will remain amazing untill Halo 4 comes out. i dont know why they would add multiplayer when we will already have Halo 4’s
If it did ever come out, I would predict, HD amazing graphics, new and better maps, bug fixes (tons), better Forge, Firefight, and more
Has to have Halo 2’s Original MP with it’s original online interface.
It’s simple, make H2 MP the exact same and you will make tons of money. That is truly what made Halo 2 the best. It should have never been taken offline.
