Halo is one of the most popular FPS franchises currently on the market. If you have an Xbox 360 you’re sure to know that there are currently 4 different titles on the market starting with Halo: CE and ending with Halo: Reach. However, if you’re been paying attention to the news you’ll also probably know that there are two more titles coming out dubbed Halo: Anniversary Edition and Halo 4.

Halo 4 is pretty self explanatory but Halo: Anniversary Edition may be a bit more puzzling to those who aren’t familiar with the game. In the shortest way possible, Halo: Anniversary Edition is a remade version of Halo: CE. But, before you get too upset, make note that the game is essentially the exact same game but with updated graphics and the ability to play online co-op. Yes, I know, it’s a bummer that they didn’t put online multiplayer into the game but what would be the point of Halo 4 if they did, am I right?

Anyways, we’ve heard quite a bit about the Anniversary Edition with even more coming out just about everyday. The latest news is that the original Halo soundtrack will be remade in its entirety for the new game. Pretty awesome and it’s sure to be a nostalgic day when Halo: Anniversary Edition drops on November 14th of this year.

Now that Halo: Reach has been on the market for a while, Bungie has been hard at work on the game’s first map pack dubbed the Noble Map Pack. Featuring 3 brand new maps and retailing for 800 Microsoft Points, the Noble Map Pack is available today for download.
