Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Silent Cartographer Demo

A "labor of love" for the fans.

There used to be an embeded media player here, but it doesn't work anymore. We blame the Tumbeasts.

Yes, you’ve seen footage of the Silent Cartographer level out of E3 already; that much is true.  However, in even the short time since then, 343 Industries has been able to bump up the visuals in Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary to an even more impressive level.

Those of you that have listened to any of our Mashcasts, know that I’m a huge Halo fan.  The overhaul they have given to the best campaign in the series is looking spectacular and I can’t wait to get my hands on it this fall.  They’ve shown us the trick before, but it’s still incredibly striking to see the visuals flicked between retro and modern at a flick of a button.  It really makes you appreciate just what 343 has accomplished here, and it’s got me far more excited for this remake than I am for Halo 4.  Experiencing CE all over again in a brand new light is going to be an absolute blast.
