Why thanks! & I know right: 100 MAPS! (I want to say “THE POWER OF BLU-RAY”)

It’s a good deal in my opinion, they could have easily charged more, due to the vast amount of content in the game.

Cairo Station Pre-view coming !!!

I would have easily paid more. I originally thought they were remastering Halo 3 and 4 as well but it sounds like they are just porting them over. Im still super happy. It will make the wait for Halo 5 soooooo easy compared to the Halo 4 wait. Now to deal with the wait until the collection…

What they showed for Halo:MCC loved it.

And NOW!..

I’m going to sleep to work over all of this

Plus it’s almost midnight and the stairs at my school are not “nice” to sleep in

Night !

You know what I do during long waits? Play VIDYA GAEMS.

Hmmmm, Master Chief edition Halo.

Kinda underwhelming if I say so.

Lets spend another $60 on games that I already own.

I wish he stopped for a second to show us the Elites a bit more. Just a glance at a dead body. I couldn’t get much from the shooting

I still hate the new Elite models, so I wish they make them like the old ones again. The game loses it’s Halo feel if the Elites look like savages instead of warriors.

The Elites looked like an upgraded variant of the Halo 2 ones to me.

& I kinda agree. I feel that the Covenants’ new look only fits Jul 'Mdama’s & 'Gajat’s factions. The others don’t go down well for me. That issue of Escalation with the Arbiter in? He didn’t look right to me. Thankfully, Blur has made him look awesome, judging by that image of him in H2A.

Theres a large group of people including myself who would disagree :stuck_out_tongue:

The Elites look fine I wish I can post a picture that I took from when the video was done uploading by E3 on that mulitplayer. I had to check to be sure 343 listened to us on the Elites. I’m happy to see that they DO NOT look like H4 Minor Elites! Idk if I can post the picture of the Elite up close on that part but it’s up to the monitors and admins here to say if I can so sorry I can’t show picture until they say ‘yes you can’. :frowning:

So much hype. Good night.

Sometimes I have the feeling like I have a curse with me.

Many threads (not including this one) I write in never get another post again.

I also disagree. This is a huge present! I am super excited about it.

They are just re-skinned versions of the H2 Elites. No indication what the design scheme will look like for Elites in Halo 5.

It really depends on the person. For me, original MP’s from all 4 games and remastered campaigns, Halo: Nightfall and a Halo 5 Beta Key are quite worth it. :slight_smile:

@ Tyrant 9 and Alei Iakanee:
I will be really happy if the Elites still have the old look. Thanks for the information.
The new look really fits the Storm only.
EDIT: The Arbiter actually looks good, which makes me worry a bit less now. ^^

I totally agree. I do like how Merg 'Vol’s faction in Spartan Assault looked like the Covenant from Halo: Reach (aside from Merg 'Vol himself, strangely).

Guys, I forgot to ask, was there anything mentioned about H3/H4 rank & progress getting shifted to the MCC “if” we get it on the ONE, or are we all going back to square 1?
