Has anybody heard when halo2 for the pc. is comming out. Halo2 for the pc should have come out when the x box version came out. I think it is a disgrace that games for x box come out but not for the pc. What are pc people 2nd class citizens to xbox people / playstation.

I don't think it's a shame, Theres plenty of pc titles that are better or equal to halo right now.

Sure halo 2 pc might turn out better than halo pc did, and that wouldn't be bad.

Yeah, still waiting .....!

I wonder how chronicles of riddick or halflife 2 for the pc compares to halo2 for the xbox

its because of the effort of porting it to pc, and the value of halo 2 being system exclusive to xbox.

I could say the exact same thing about Half-Life 2 not coming to Xbox/PS2/GC. It's all up to the publishers/dev to decide. As of right now, no one really knows when, if at all, its being ported to the PC. Just hold on to your shorts. smile.gif

Riddick was a beautiful game. It's the first time I fully appreciated my video card when I played Riddick.

Halo is a console game - its not even confirmed for pc, heck its not even been said by ne1 from microsoft that it might happen.

Bungie never committed to doing Halo 2 for the PC, and in fact they seemed to never even think of it. Halo 2 was always designed to be an Xbox game.

If the port of Halo 2 to PC is as ****ty as the port of the original Halo, they can keep it. I wouldn't pirate that.

^what are you talking about HALO PC was an awesome game, still play it
tapo
No Mac version is even worse, as Bungie was originally a Mac developer. sad.gif

/me hugs his copy of Marathon: Infinity

ive never liked FPS's on consoles.... in fact i don't really like very many console games period. so my opinion is a little biased tongue.gif.

halo in general is overrated... i would not mind getting a pc version as i play shooters best with a mouse+keyboard, but if it dont come out i aint gonna be mad or anything over it.

I played both, and I prefer the PC version. Maybe because WASD is just ingrained in my memory at this point. biggrin.gif

LoLz, far as microsoft porting it over it would only make sense then there would be even more of a market for there game.. They should just do the gta agreement. Leave the game on the console for a year sell it like mad, then port it to pc and make it better and sell more copies upwards of 2 million... Personally if they would release it id buy it, how ever on the terms of it all long as gearbox AKA ass clowns dont turn the game into a slow port.


oh ya left one more thing out,

xbox 2 = xenon engine.. Longhorn is gonna support xenon and theres gonna be a xbox computers any hints that the chance of the xbox 2 games running on a pc is great hrmm.. wink.gif
