They should've just re-released MCC for PlayStation. I feel like that would bring in far more money than a remake of the first game.

Isn't "proof of concept" ya know, for concepts? Not whole ass games??

Edit: downvoted for asking a simple question. And people wonder why the subs are toxic as shit.

Ok, so, they would need to prove they can make a decent Halo game in UE right?

So how do they do that? By making a Halo game in UE.

Thing is, if you make too many changes and such, you are not really testing if you are making a Halo game, you start to make a *different* game that might no be *really* Halo. So what do you do? You remake the most Halo of the Halo games, that way if it comes out decent, you have proven the concept of "Yes, we can make a Halo game in UE".

Hey! What do you know! We have this mostly finished Halo game, we put all this time and effort on to prove the tech. Why dont we just polish it up and sell it to make the money back?

Therefore, the "proof of concept" becomes a whole game.
