: From what I know, The universal UI won't allow for anything less then for all
: games to have similar experiences from campaign scoring to theater. while
: while H1/A and H2/A don't have theater mode (due to them being old
: engines) 3 and 4 do and if ODST did as well then they should implement it
: pretty easily and should have all the same features across the games.

What I had asked was not about feature parity, but feature enhancement. I was wondering about how theater behaved in Halo 3 (can you rewind like in Reach), and if it was changed from the 360 version, then it would possibly hint at ODST's theater also being able to rewind. If the Remastered Halo 3 can't rewind, then the chances are low. The question was also if the ODST theater would be dependent on the horrible Xbone DVR like the MCC is, or if, it being a straight up-rezzed port, would work in its own ecosystem.

: It should be all the same thing, thats what the Universal UI was made for.

Ew... I hope not, considering how awful the UI is in the first place. I thought it would be different, since ODST has a somewhat different setup, although the removal of Firefight does negate the need for separate menus. But the question was more about how the menu system for ODST would be, and if it's dependednt on the MCC UI, then that would mean that it would be difficult to offer as a stand-alone sale.

: I think it'll get the same treatment as 3 and 4.

The question was whether it used the same assets off the disk. Not what kind of remastering level it would have. Given that ODST used Halo 3's assets, is it possible that 343 is using the existing MCC Halo 3 assets off the disk for ODST? Would that be possible at this stage? Or will it duplicate those assets (using more storage space) just for ODST? If it's the latter, it would be possible to release the game as a stand-alone, which I would greatly prefer, since I don't want to get the MCC.
