Right on the day when Halo: Combat Evolved Anniversary Edition is released in North America, a brand new video has popped up, comparing the classic and remastered visuals from the new first person shooter.

Microsoft wants to keep the Halo series popular until next year's Halo 4, so it has tasked its 343 Industries studio, alongside Saber Interactive and Certain Affinity, to remaster the original Halo: Combat Evolved for an Anniversary Edition that celebrates ten years since the release of the first shooter in the franchise.

Now, just as the game's being released in North America, a fresh video, courtesy of CVG, compares the classic visuals from the original game with the remastered ones you can enjoy in Anniversary. Don't forget that you can easily swap between these styles with the press of a button in the new game.

Halo: Anniversary is out exclusively for the Xbox 360 today in North America and on Friday, November 18, in Europe.
