A collection of casual console shooters for the casual audience. Halo was the beginning of the end of hardcore gaming. Shameful.
Halo 2 was unintentionally hardcore with the button combo glitches. Anyway, I fail to see how it was casual. It's very easy to pick up and play but it's also very difficult to master. When you get no radar, spawn with the same weapons/nades, have weapon/powerup pickups, balanced competitive maps/gametypes, a very good competitive ranking system then it's certainly not a casual game.
I love halo because it isn't hardcore. Learn the maps and pickups and you're set. Back in the day, after I had a long session on Socom or Counterstrike I turned on halo 2 to wind down and relax.
I would buy this if I hadn't spent so much time on the games on xbox and 360. A lot of people I know feel the same. It will be interesting to see if XB1 outsells PS4 with this collection in Nov or if people rather wait for halo 5.
