Phil Spencer, head of Microsoft Games Studios, recently confirmed Kinect support for the upcoming Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary edition.

Just to let everybody know, the Kinect features we're exploring with Halo: Anniversary are optional and won't affect your core gameplay experience. Our mission, from day one, has been to deliver a faithful recreation of the original game, and we remain dedicated to seeing that through to completion.

There has been no announcement as to what the Kinect support will entail. Halo: CEA will launch on November 15 on the Xbox 360. It supports 2 player local co-op and 4 player online co-op.
