Jul 4, 2023One of the watershed titles in the evolution of gaming gets a HD facelift and proves that it's still better than virtually every game that came since. A stone cold classic.

May 6, 2023This remake of Halo CE is great for what it is. Great gameplay, a fantastic multiplayer, great graphics, and overall a great remake for a legendary game.

Apr 10, 2023One of the most revolutionary FPS titles of its original era, Halo proves to still be a joy with its fun weapons and open areas despite some age felt with repetitive gameplay and settings.

Jul 11, 2023A poorly designed remaster of a classic game. Just because a remaster has better graphics than the original doesn't mean it's better. It ruins the whole point of dark levels by making them much brighter. The game still looks good for 2011, though.

Feb 15, 2012Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary is almost as good in reality as it ever was in your memory. The graphical update is welcome and the multiplayer maps are decent if not amazing. There are a few rough edges and cracks around the once infallible gameplay, but nothing that would stop you enjoying Halo: CE immensely the second (or first – lucky you) time around.

Jan 3, 2012It's an amazing piece of gaming history, to be certain, but a purchase decision still comes down to this: If you're a fan of the series who loved or missed the original, it's a no-brainer. This is one of the best pieces of fanservice our industry has ever produced, and you need to go buy it. On the other hand, if you're an FPS fanatic trying to decide between this or Rage or Deus Ex, you may want to think twice before dropping 40 bones on a shooter that doesn't quite stack up to the competition.
