Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary is a great game, but it seems to straddle the line between a remastery and a remake, especially when you compare the story mode to the more modern multiplayer. Ryan Johnson looks at the history of some remade games, and discusses why the remake/remaster fits so well.

I feel I am in a very good position to review Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary. I liken it to my 5-year old son, who I have been writing about in my Evolution of a Gamer articles. For him, the age of the game means nothing. He wants to play, "The Mario where you jump into paintings" or "the blocky Mario," when I remember the years between the releases of Mario 1 and Mario 64. For him, they're two different Wii channels. This is what I get with Halo: I paid no attention to Halo through the years, and now through GoozerNation or promotions, I currently own a copy of Halo 1 and Halo Reach.
