Halo Anniversary Preview

Our crack team of literate gaming nerds are on the ground at PAX Prime 2011, seeing the sights, meeting the people and, most importantly, playing the games. Last night it was Halo Fest. This morning, we have Eric Eckstein, Nikole Zivalich, Jake Gaskill and Leah Jackson's impressions of Halo: Anniversary's Team Slayer and Firefight modes:

Here's a sample:

"Team Slayer is where the magic happens in Halo. Halo: CE Anniversary will have the option to play an updated version of a classic map and a version that has been tweaked to better handle new perks. Basically, 343 read my mind, knew I always go for jetpack, and redid a bunch of classic maps with more ledges, caves, and anywhere else I could boost up and hide. Camping is legitimate strategy. And using your jetpack to get to those camp spots is just smart. This is why I win wars, people."

Check out the rest of our Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary preview.

    Okay I like Halo a lot,I don't own a X-Box 360,it would be sweet if Bungie game studios did release the game on to the Play Station 3,I don't like the X-Box 360,I don't hate it,but the good thing is that Microsoft will fix the X-Box 360 for free,and this comment was not a console fan boy comment,I just want to see Halo on the Play Station 3 one of these days.

    Plasma rifles don't "charge up", plasma pistols do.

    Camping is a legitimate strategy if you're a normal human that dies in one shot, but you're a Spartan in this game. Man up, go out there and put those Spartan shields to the test.
