Ummm...yes, you could. Considering I personally shop at Disc Replay, so I know their prices, and I even did a run down of the numbers in my response to kinising. You can get those 3 games for $30.
You can get Halo CE Anniversary, Halo 3 + all DLC, and Halo 4 + all DLC for $55, right now. Is a revamp of Halo 2 really worth all this excitement? It's the only thing missing when you crunch the numbers. Nobody cared about the Halo 1 revamp.
edit: and, no I wouldn't consider TLOU PS4 a megaton, considering I still have TLOU on my shelf right now. And I even, sarcastically, asked kinisking that since the PS4 version is basically an uprezzed GOTY version, "is that a megaton?"

lol @ bold. Idk what you want as a response other than thanks for proving me right?
you: LOL i can get that for $30 in my local used shop
me: nu uh
you: yeah i can see! only $55 LOL.
Of course, that $55 doesn't include what most people are excited about, which is the Halo 2 package. But please, do try to shift the goal posts again and let us know what GameReplay or whatever shithole establishment that was charges for a next gen version of Halo 2 that you can actually play online since OG XBL is offline. Go ahead, feel free to reply when you get a quote.
As for LoU, many people here do consider it a megaton. Strangely, I don't remember you in there pooing in their cereal about "lowered standards" or anything. So LoU PS4 isn't a megaton to you. Cool. Me either. Nor is the Halo Collection, though I will buy it day one. But it's entirely understandable why many would claim it to be. Halo 2 MP is that good to some people.

Sorry, but I said you could get those games for $30. You said no. Then after that, you said "and certainly not with unchanged gameplay and updated graphics to Halo 2 and DLC"
I said "yes you can" to the idea of getting Halo CE Anniversary, Halo 3 and Halo 4 for $30, which you can. As in, you can get those physical discs for $30. I worded my statement poorly. But you're too quick to condescension if you really thought I meant "hey, you can get this for $30...for $55".
I then said, you can get all that extra content, within the confines of those 3 games, for $55 total. But let's forget about Disc Replay, I actually showed that you can go to eBay and get those games on the cheap (so no anecdotal "I saw it here for this price, but you don't live here so you'll have to take my word for it"). So no need to take pot shots at a regional business that's just trying to stay competitive. It's not a shithole just because it proves me right that you can get Halo CE, Halo 3 and 4 for cheap. "$30" wasn't an arbitrary number I made up.
Now, with that out of the way, you're saying that real value is Halo 2 being remade. I'm questioning that because there was whole bunch of excitement around Halo CE being remade, but your wallets didn't correspond with that. The goal post was indeed on Halo 2. There was no shifting. That's the only content that you can't get at this very moment. I even said "it's the only thing missing when you crunch the numbers". Since the value of this collection is really just the Halo 2 Anniversary version, I wanna know if that is really worth all the excitement. But go ahead, be snarky in order to feel "right" while completely missing the point.
And lastly, I didn't say anything about "lower standards" regarding this Halo collection, itself. I'm talking about "lowered standards" with regard to what we call "big" or "a megaton". Nobody said that about TLOU remastered, mostly because the game just came out last year. So there was no need to "poo in anyone's cereal" because their expectations were tempered, as they should have been. As opposed to going bonkers over a HD collection. Nobody went nuts over the MGS Collection with HD Peace Walker, remapped to the DS3 controller. But, anyway, here are my comments on TLOU remastered. And some more. Whatever was praised about that game, I shot it down in response. System seller? No. "Revamped" graphics? No. Sell a whole bunch on PS4? No. And the majority of people said that while it may sell some, it's mostly just a gap filler. Nobody was saying "this is HUGE". Nice attempt at a straw man, though. Guess you weren't looking hard enough.
