Halo 3 Anniversary

Since next year would be 10 years since Halo 3, do you reckon there will be a Halo 3 Anniversary edition? Maybe even as a DLC for MCC would be great in my opinion.

Felt like they would have teased it at E3 if that was the case.

Nope, they probably think mcc was all that was necessary
which is wrong

Yep. After seeing CoD 4s hype they wont miss out on this big money!

I personally don’t see a point. Halo CE was remade because it re-defined fps, was the first game, and was the reason Xbox is successful. Halo CE even had a compelling story and most fps lacked that. Halo 2 popularized online fps, is the reason why Xbox Live is popular and a juggernaut for online gaming compared to Playstation and Nintendo. Halo 2 even expanded the Halo storyline.
As great as Halo 3 is, it offered nothing new. While it arguably is the greatest threequel game I ever played and ended the saga beautifully, (Halo 4 and 5 aren’t canon to me because the story sucks in my opinion) Halo 3 just continued Halo’s dominance as the best Xbox exclusive ever. I understand that Halo 3 is the best selling and the community was at it’s best but the thing is, Halo CE and Halo 2 impacted the fps genre due to the reasons I stated above. If the anniversary is made, I won’t care. I just want 343 to focus and try there best on Halo 6 that way Halo 3 anniversary may not distract them sort of what MCC did to Halo 5.
If you disagree with me that is find. Thank you Junglee91 for making this topic to be open for discussion.

I want a halo 3 anniversary :frowning:

I totally agree with the whole letting them focus on Halo 6 thing. it’s just that even Skyrim and the Arkham games are getting a remaster within 5years of launch. which is, obviously, cash grab. so I thought even bungie would consider it. At least after the reviews Destiny is getting

My point as well. Skyrim and the Arkham games as well

In MCC the graphics were improved on Halo 3 and the only reason there should a anniversary is to improve graphics, so really there is no need for a anniversary

are you implying the graphics don’t need updating?

I want an Anniversary for it. I honestly don’t care if it distracts them from Halo 6 since I think every game Bungie hasn’t made and even Reach was subpar to the other ones.

Hate to say it but I agree with that. Without Bungie, the creativity just isn’t there

Halo 3 Anniversary should definitely happen, even if it is just the campaign and even if it’s only DLC. They don’t need to remaster any after this, but this should be done.

It’s no Halo 3 Anniversary but I am very pleased with Halo Wars 2! Good job 343i!

I’d love for it to be a DLC to MCC. I’d pay for that and play it to my hearts content

If you had read the books before you played 4 and 5 I think you would’ve liked the campaigns a lot more. They did such a great job leading into the games

I hope not, I’d rather see a new Halo game along the lines of ODST. The remastering of old games is getting a bit old.

Halo 3 innovations
Forge- Copied in Far Cry, GTA, etc.
Theater- We see this used in COD and other games too. Essentially any kind of game DVR was heavily influenced by this.
Powerups- They were good in 3. As usual, 343 messed up when they made their own version in Halo 5.
Obviously it wasn’t as innovative as 1 and 2, but it is impressive that even the third game was a major fps innovation.

fantastically put.always many points to consider

In my opinion, it would be good to have a remastered Halo 3, because it was arguably one of the better games in the series (and at least better than what 343 has done, but that’s just my opinion). It would also be nice for it to not look the oldest and most dated game in the series.
I must admit, though, it is unlikely to happen.
