So let me get this right.  Buy an uglier version of the original game (Unless it looks a lot better now), and get the better looking original + rest?  Tell me why I need to buy an Xbox One for this?  I mean, unless I never owned a 360 before.

Think it's pretty cool that they are doing this.

I think it mostly looks better.  
Because you never owned a 360 before.

the remake is clearly better looking on a technical level minus perhaps a few details.     ...and giving out the old games is a pretty good pre-order bonus if you ask me.  i'd certainly be happy about that if i were buying this game.

I've owned two :P.  My other one is at my friend's.  He borrowed it cause his 360 broke and he wanted to play through Gears 3.  

If you think this:



looks better than this:



then I really don't know what to say.

I'm not a fan of grey.  
I never played Gears, this'd be a great opportunity for me.

There's more than grey that's a problem there.  There's no lighting in the remaster's shot, it's missing geometry, and the shaders for the water is missing.

I'd much rather have the color than any of that.

Cool idea.

Good way to add value, and good way to advertise backwards compat.

I thought the ultimate edition was the old games? I don't understand what is going on here... is the ultimate edition a new game? a remaster of a singular game?

It's a remaster of the first game.

It's a remaster of the first game.
so the reason to buy this would apparently be the original games then lol

It's no different than Halo MCC. One of the games is remastered, while the others are just ports.

I dunno I guess i had just assumed that it was always going to be all of the titles
