From Wikipedia:
The collection consists of Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary, Halo 2, Halo 3 and Halo 4, (with Halo 2 receiving the Anniversary treatment) replete with their full catalog of extras, including all multiplayer maps and gameplay modes.[1][a] All four games have received frame-rate (60 frames per second), resolution (1080p), and lighting upgrades. Combat Evolved Anniversary is based on the high-resolution remaster of the original released in 2011 for the Xbox 360. Halo 2 is receiving a similar graphical overhaul treatment and is thought to be the core of the collection. Halo 3 and Halo 4, already in high-definition, receive only standard upgrades.[2] The compilation features new achievements, and all difficulty and play modes are unlocked from the start.[1] There have been no story or gameplay changes from the original releases.[2]
As in Combat Evolved Anniversary, Halo 2 players can swap between the original and upgraded graphics on-the-fly. Its cutscenes were also updated.[1] Since only six of the game's multiplayer maps were remastered, there are two Halo 2 multiplayer modes. Halo 2 Anniversary multiplayer uses the six remastered maps, while a standard Halo 2 multiplayer includes all of the game's released maps with a full graphical update but no remastering.[2] The Collection multiplayer includes Mission Setlists, curated lists of levels selected from throughout the series.[1]
The Extras menu includes access to Halo Nightfall and the Halo 5: Guardians multiplayer beta.[3] Nightfall is a series of weekly, episodic digital videos directed by Sergio Mimica-Gezzen and produced by Ridley Scott designed to lead up to the release of the Halo 5 beta and connect the series to the upcoming game,[1] and the Halo 5 beta runs from December 27, 2014, to January 22, 2015.[3] The release also includes new prologue and epilogue cutscenes to link the series for Halo 5's debut

How can a brand new game have a 15gb update?!
All the online stuff apparently. I had the briefest of brief goes on Halo 2... It looks like a mid to late 360 game, and the cut scenes are gorgeous. Pressing the button to display the original graphics and sound is pretty cool! Gassing Station | Video Games | Top of Page | What's New | My Stuff
