    The best part is you don't have to choose. Both versions are on the same disc and just a button click to switch from old to new graphics.

      @sevionus80 9 років тому +2

      "its nice to see a games graphics get completely re-done vs upping the resolution and adding a bit of AA"
      I know what you are saying but...
      Let's get a understanding that even beginning to understand how a video game works is quite advanced and far beyond the understanding of the vast majority of sold called "gamers".
      All graphics engines are not the same and do not all have the same accessibility applied to them.
      You cannot treat one graphics engine the same as another.
      Fake example game: Blaster Joe 2 3D - A simple low res classic 4-6 hours of game-play game.
      Original Build Graphics Engines: If built in either diagnosis.
      Red Engine might take mouths to rebuild and update to make a HD Remake of said game.
      Liquid Core Engine might take years rebuild and update to make a HD Remake of said game.
      One might have a simpler easier way to change textures and simple shaders but the lack to extend to next gen effects like light shafts and bump/displacement mapping.
      While the other might have the ability to extend to some capabilities of soft-shadows (because the engine previously was ahead of the game with shadows that looked rough/sharp)
      Developers rarely have the chance to completely rebuild an old game in a new engine 1st of all, let alone having to start over from scratch and most of the time not having the previous LEAD developers there to help because of the time gap, things can drag on for a very long period of time until... PROJECT CANCELLED.
      and if a good remake comes out...
      Developers/Publishers don't even have to tell the truth of how long they had the project in the works.
      Simple white lies, but everything is good as long as you get the game right? eh no, not good to lie about such things that could damage a already faulty industry lol...
      So called video gamers too often, take for granted just how difficult it is to create a video game, a good one at that...

      @drsupermonk7831 9 років тому +2

      SEVIONUS DOREGA I know I'm a little late but, as an artist, I totally agree with you. Making a game is extremely difficult, at least making a running and working one. From an extreme example, I think we can all agree that drawing a stick figure is much easier than an accurate portrait, with all of the details of a normal human. Then try to create a 60 FPS animation of that portrait running around and, I don't know, shooting a Grunt in the head. From my perspective, they put a lot of detail into this game and I appreciate that. Of course, I am only defending the visual standpoint.

    • @spartanK42
      @spartanK42 4 роки тому +23

      Halo 2A did a really good job of preserving the visual style and direction of the levels despite having improved graphics. Halo CEA felt like the developers didn't quite "get" the levels. The best example is probably 343 Guilty Spark. From the mysterious, cold, foggy forest of the original they turned it into this bright saturated forest.

      then? Cause i can make a pc that perfom better than PS4/xbox one and cost almost the same (money) and if I want to play with a control just buy one for 9.99€ and connect it. And even if I spent more money building it I just recover it on steam spending just 15€ on a game you have to pay 60€ on PS4/xbox one or even better wait of xmas sales and buy 20+ game while you buy 1.
      Plus if some of my pc internal components fail I just can remplace it >myself< with a new one. If some of your PS4/xbox one fail you are screwed, send it to technical support for 2 months just for them to send it back to you and then fail again 1 week later or buy a new one.

    The original had a doomier vibe to it. The hard edges and cold stone surfaces made indoor areas look very harsh and unwelcoming, and the buildings had a bleak, almost apocalyptic feel. The new lighting, textures and models make everything look much more futuristic, but they lose the dourness that made the original so memorable. Love what they did with the nature environments though, much more exotic.

You guys clearly need some glasses or stop lying, saying the PS4 or Xbox One looks better in multi-plats is completely debatable. The Xbox One clearly looks 1000x better here there's no debate. They didn't just up the resolution and add AA they actually redid the entire game, Halo 4 is the only version that they upped the resolution and added AA because the game is from 2012, not 2004.

      The funny thing is, the "play anywhere" promise has been changed. Only the games shown at E3 2016 are comfirmed come on PC, other games aren't, instead of all "microsoft game studio" games. Guess why they changed their promise, as you most likely did, they probably did it to remain halo on the Xbox.
      So no, we don't know if halo 6 will come to PC

    • @ne3333t

    • @subtleylil
      @subtleylil 6 років тому +2

      I remember playing age of empires III and in the graphics options setting the higher detailed bloom, shaders, and shadows settings would give the water the appearance of the original and setting them to low would give the water the appearance of the remastered in this video. So to me it doesn’t make sense why they would use a lower quality for the water in certain background images than in the original. Because like I said I can relate this directly to how the water would look at these settings in age and it’s eerily similar. The mountains do have more detail yes in the remastered. But to me the water in the background is much more important in the immersion and creating the life of it. And the remastered water in this particular background image just feels lifeless and distant. Whereas the original makes you feel like you are really there

  • @062935529

    I hated how the 2014 build had broken sound for voice actors whilst in game. In Halo 2 PC, I could hear Miranda, Johnson & Spark have their entire conversation in the control center without my distance affecting the volume of the sound.
    But in anniversary, be it classic or remastered mode, I can hardly hear shit of their conversation because I stand 10 feet away & I can't hear Johnson's yelling & Miranda's conversation with Spark fades in & out. Dafuq?
    In Delta halo, the 1st in game Dialouge was an ODST (Chips Dubbo) telling you *"Sir, We gotta neutralize those turrets!"*. You could hear that loud & clearly on the classic disks for old Xbox & PC versions, but anniversary makes it impossible to hear him despite being just 10 feet away.

It's just the fact that Halo 5 isn't like the classics and have these game mechanics like all other modern day shooters have.

Or hell, halo CE on pc just blowing shit up on blood gultch. The graphics may not be the best today but I still play halo CE and i wish HALO3 was on pc. Halo 3 was the best one., graphics were amazing for the time and still look good. Gameplay was perfect. No dumb jetpacks or powerups. 343 Just ruined halo it feels.

      AbysmalEnd Some of them are actually so stupid to actually THINK what they're saying is true, but then when a bunch of people hate on them they're like "I was trolling guys wow you are all so fucking stupid..I didn't really mean that." It's idiotic. The most pathetic, low-life, pre-pubescent species on the planet: PEOPLE WHO TROLL.

    Even though they did an amazing job on the remake and even went out and updated the models for the weapons, NPCs and Vehicles, I still believe they could have done a little better at the AI and some minor effects like water, shading and such, otherwise, it was an amazing remake

      Keep in mind that the game used the same engine for everything other than graphics, so things like AI and water rippling couldn't actually have been implemented and still allowed for convenient switching of graphics.

    There may also be a second remake, dubbed 25th Anniversary Edition, sporting movie grade CGI. There would be an option to choose between the versions of the game.

    See, Halo 2 had a good remaster, it looks almost exactly the same but updated.
    Unlike Halo 1 Anniversary that looks like a completely different game most of the time because they changed it so fucking much.

    Although anniversary improves many levels through Remastered detailing and lighting, which I absolutely love about game remasterings, it accidentally lit up areas which make the game give a more light tone at times. Every now and then, an example in the video would show a part of the original having a more dark tone, something more fitting for an alien invasion on earth. For example, in MW2, during the retaking of Whiskey Hotel, the setting was dark at night, illuminated by fires and tracer rounds, and has became one of the most iconic parts of the entire game. Otherwise, world depth in anniversary was nearly perfect and believable at all times.

    The fact both of them are running on the exact same graphics engine is what blows my mind

    The anniversary elites look almost perfect, but they still haven't gotten them to look the way they did in 1-3, with their sleek, low profile heads. If you pause it at 0:46 you'll see what I mean. Why do they insist on having the mandibles spread out like that? And the helmet is too big. Basically, their heads used to have a very compressed shape, with horizontal angles for everything; the helmet and the mandibles lined up, the mandibles were very close to the face, and when they shut their "mouth" is closed off the whole shape. Now everything is sticking out at different angles, too wide and beefy. But yeah, they look way better here than in Reach and onwards.
