Life evolves as does Combat. I love that there are so many games coming out my backlog is larger than I will ever hope finish. I love that my wife hasn’t killed me yet for each time I bring another unopened game into our home. And I love that I’ve gotten to spend some time playing Halo CE over the internet with a longtime friend, even if we haven’t been able to beat it yet.

It's easy enough to look past the original Halo's more dated qualities given Anniversary's tasteful visual refresh and a combat formula that's still plenty exciting.
