We’re going to bring you the most extensive Halo coverage from E3 2011. Unlike last year, this year we head into E3 not even knowing if a Halo title will make an appearance. Will Halo show up? Are the rumours true? We can’t wait to find out and when we do, you’ll find links to all the major stories, videos, interviews, media and anything else.
Make this page your Halo E3 Hub and visit back often for the latest updates during the show.

With this statement are you trying to say the included multiplayer maps are only REACH maps or are you saying that all existing REACH multiplayer maps, including the 7 new ones are part of this product?
•Halo Anniversary | All Reach MP Maps included
Sorry, information was scarce on the specifics when that was posted.
With CEA, you’ll be able to play the maps on the disc in the Reach environments or alternatively store the maps from the disc on your 360 HD, put in Halo: Reach and access the maps from Reach.
Question, what is CEA?
These games will destroy bungie.
Combat Evolved Anniversary. =)
No, they will not. Bungie and 343 Industries are both great companies.
Thanks for posting, clarified the multiplayer maps for CEA for me. I’m glad they are accessed through Reach. We are spoilt rotten as fans of this universe, not only are we getting a revamp of the original and best which we all spent our early days on, but we also get a brand new trilogy of mystery and action in the shoes of John himself! Hopefully they stick to the fiction of the books (assuming the planet is indeed Onyx)
