Still just a rumour at this point.

We know something is coming but is this it?

Sounds like a real dog's breakfast without more detail. I.E. multiplayer, if any, will be based on what?

I think they'd only use multiplayer from Halo 4. I hope this turns out to be real. Its being reported all over the internet as fact, not speculation, which leads me to believe this is coming.

I want all Halos on XB1, to get everyone moved over there. Community Halo will otherwise continue to diminish.

Common sense should rule that only one Halo multiplayer can exist on XB1 until Halo 5 comes out. Halo 4 has the best character movement and physics but the maps, guns, equipment and abilities should be a mix of all the titles. Just my thoughts.

Few more weeks and we will know.

You wouldn't really be able to mix the guns simply because there's different versions of the same weapons.  Which BR would we get?  Halo 2, 3, or 4's?  Which sniper?  Shotty?  Etc.  Unless it was distinguished when the vote came up.  Halo 3 Valhalla, Halo 4 Valhalla, Halo 2 Headlong.  Whichever  map was voted for included the weapons and any equipment or abilities from that game.  If Halo 3's Valhalla was picked, you would get H3 sniper, banshee, br, bubble shield, etc.

What if this "Halo: Master Chief Collection" is actually just ONE game. It contains a campaign mode that has H1 + H2 + H3 + H4 campaign stories to choose from. All running the same engine, graphics, fps, etc. The Multiplayer mode would also be running the same engine etc. but it would be a selection of "best of" maps from all 4 games? So for example one vahala, one blood gulch, etc. Maybe 15 maps total? What do you guys think?

Pretty much what I was trying to say.

If this is true, I will be picking it up.

I suppose it's also possible each remake comes out on a staggered release schedule over the year. I read that somewhere. Yuck to that.

IMO, if there is a multiplayer component, it should just be one solution. I'm not interested in multiple solutions. Freaking mess.

this seems like a huge project, yet no one knows it was in development?

I think we've known about 343i, Sabre Interactive and Certain Affinity collaborating on something. Everything else has been "lnsider leaks" (ntkrnl  on GAF). Thank goodness the reality will be known soon.

I've not heard a thing about it, and I check gaming sites, NeoGAF, and here all the time.  We knew about a Halo 2 Anniversary but not a 1-4 remake.

There is a locked topic on GAF where this ntkrnl person dropped some bombs early this year. It was a big hubbub. I will look for a link later.

Obviously with so few details (or even confirmation this is real), I can't say I'm terribly excited for "remastered" campaigns. Now a "best of" multiplayer game would get my attention and I'm sure in a moment of weakness, my money too. 

In all honesty though, it sounds like a money grab, filler game until H5.

Here it is.

I see now this original leak didn't mention a HCE HD remake. The latest leaks do, but I can't find the source. All unconfirmed stuff.

In the span of one year.

Don't forget two live action series too!

No CEA port? I guess they figured it wasn't necessary because of CEA on the 360.

That was the early leak/speculation from ntkrnl on Neogaf. The latest H1-H4 rumour from Engaget.com mentions sources but does not identify them.

It could all be from the earlier leak but with added spin.

We know Halo news is confirmed for E3 and now we know it's not Halo 5. So the possibilities have been diminished a bit.
