Halo PC is better for the following reasons:
1) Graphics are vastly superior. If you don't think so, that means your PC is ****, and that's your fault not Halo-PC's fault.
2) Multiplayer is far more enjoyable. 16 players over internet, and a standard broadband (same speed as xbox live) is perfectly capable of making a lag-free game. You can fly banshees, rocket-warthogs, and fire flamethrowers and fuel rod guns. As for the range of new maps... you Need to play Death Island, imagine Silent Cartographer with unlimited access. And banshees.... tanks... nice.
3) Adjustable controls. You can assign any control to any action in Halo PC. This means your mouse can do primary fire, scopes, melees, grenades, reloads, weapon switches... whatever feels best for you.
4) I'd just like to say, for those who think xbox Halo is the 'real deal', 'genuine article' and so on, Halo was designed for PC several years ago, then it was ported to xbox to boost sales. So Halo PC is the daddy, in every way.
Edit: Just in case anyone's thinking "I bet he's never even played Halo xbox", I own both of them. I had xbox Halo first, and completed it, then got the PC version when it came out, for the better multiplayer experience. So I know what I'm talking about.
Um, didn't Gearbox port Halo Xbox to the PC? Wouldn't that make Xbox's version first and it the Daddy? Yes, it was going to be published on PC first. But it wasn't. It was also going to be a RTS. But it didn't end up being that either. The whole game wasn't finished at that time anyways. Halo came out on the Xbox first, not the PC. The daddy comes before the baby doesn't it?
