In Response To: Re: A Halo 2 Remake Would Have to 'Nail' Multiplay (Phoenix_9286)

: I'm not the biggest fan of CE's Multiplayer, and I understand what he's
: getting at, but the bolded bit still bugs the crap out of me.

: Never had multiplayer in the truest sense?

: According to Wikipedia, Multiplayer is, "a video game in which more than
: one person can play in the same game environment at the same time."

: Seeing as how CE and every title after it supported a full 16 players, I
: THINK IT QUALIFIES AS TRUE MULTIPLAYER.

: Why is it that the people in the business of managing and selling video games
: always get it all wrong? Is it that hard to know your products?

Given that the defining feature of multiplayer Xbox games for the past 12 years has been online play through Xbox Live, I think he's correct. Microsoft doesn't consider it "true" multiplayer unless it can be played through Xbox Live.
