343 Industries Ruins Halo: Combat Evolved

http://xbox360.ign.com/articles/117/1173461p1.html

"The one, big, controversial omission is classic Halo multiplayer. The Anniversary Edition includes a second disc for multiplayer -- which runs off the Halo: Reach engine. These include six remade Halo 1 multiplayer maps, one Halo 2 map, and firefight maps. But they include armor abilities and everything from Halo: Reach."

"343 did not want to divide the online community, which is understandable. But it denies Halo fans the one thing they've been asking for the past 10 years -- to play the Halo: Combat Evolved multiplayer online."

It wouldn't divide the community as much as it would bring in new community that has long abandoned the Halo series. None of us play Halo Reach anymore.

Well, I haven't played any type of Halo for a very long time. Honestly, if I had to pick any Halo to play, it'd be Halo 1. Every time. The quote is correct, all I want is Halo 1, with refined graphics, and XBL multiplayer. It was almost too good to be true, what with Pitch Black back on the shelves!
