Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary

Guess who bought Halo Combat Evolved Anniversary. Me! Wow what a great game. The gameplay is almost the same as the original game released back in 2001 with the only differences being the edges of objects and things, because they all have new texture skins on them and sometimes you can see a hiding enemy when there should be a wall. But that is the only bad part. I played through the first time on normal difficulty and I suggest against it. The only difficulties I like to play on are easy and legendary. In easy you are and unstoppable force making your way through a handful of weak enemies this is the best mode for finding the newly added skulls and terminals and for looking at all the pretty visual additions that they made to the game. Legendary difficulty great because it is a challenge and there is a whole lot more time in game spent playing. There are a few additions to this game that make legendary even more fun that it usually is and those are the skulls, particularly the grunt funeral skull and the piñata skull. The grunt funeral skull was available to all of the people who preordered the game and causes the grunts to explode like plasma grenades when they die. The piñata skull makes the enemies drop grenades when they get hit it is especially awesome on levels with the flood. All you have to do is shoot off their arms so they can’t attack and they will just run up to you. As anyone that has played halo knows flood combat forms can take quite a beating with the butt of a weapon before going down so just wail on those suckers till you are standing in a pile of grenades. 343 industries did a really good job with this game the visuals are amazing and the gameplay is the same classic fun many people experienced back in 2001. The game comes with a map pack for halo reach including a few of the original maps from first game, the second game and the pc version of the game. All in all this game rocks I am currently working on my legendary play through. Cant wait for halo 4.
