There are many posts at the present talking about this and I have to shout it out that halo 2 is just too good for the xbox - I wonder if any of the PC gamers at Bungie have a PC version of the game? lol

First off lets put this xbox v PC war to bed, PC's are the absolute best for FPS games - in fact it was on the PC that they came around - and yes halo is the best FPS for a console - but those who have truly played on both a good amount will know that the game is far more satisfying on the PC.

Now Halo 2 - good played on it yesterday and had some fun - but the only let down is that it is on an old crapy console that can barley handle the game - when this game comes out on PC (which is where it should be) I will be the first to buy it as I believe it might be one of the very best FPS there is besides halo 1.

And when MS decide to release it on PC it will keep the Halo name around for a long time
good for MS's bank account - bad for the PC gamer.

Oh stop this pc/xbox which is better rubbish. They have they're own seperate advantages and disadvantage, and they suit differrent people. You prefer halo on pc, i prefer it on x box. Thats fine. We both play it the way we want to. Neither is better or more right.

Oh, yes pcs are more powerful. Im not denying that, but that isnt a problem for some people. Again all that matters is that people play it the way they want to.

In conclusion we should get a PC version so we can play the game the way we want to...it would only be fair...but hey...that`s kinda asking MS to chose fairness over bank account...hhhmmm

Heyyo,

Let's try to focus on the posititves of Halo2, instead of this flaming war shall we?

me buds played it, n' said they removed the fuel rod and the fuel rod from the banshee, THANK GOD I say. Now the weapon balance isin't so horrible. Now, if only I can get them to tell me if the rocket is still n00b with "just shoot near the guy to kill him," or if it's finally changed to "hit the guy with rocket to kill him in 1-shot." I mean, it wouldn't be hard to smoke a guy with a rocket, they seem to move faster than the Q3A rockets, and the guys move slower, and I used to always smoke guys dead on with a rocket on that oldie.

They also say that the dual wielding is great, and that it's hella fun.

The only true downside they said was in the campaign, they diddn't give any details or spoilers, so I neither will I (one of the main reasons, don't know it, and 2ndly, I wouldn't wanna ruin it for you guys if I even knew).

Let's hope for when it comes on PC they keep this weapon balance, or even better, improve it more. ;)

***WARNING: Mini spoiler, but not really if you look at Halo2 Screenies and know the true hisotry of Halo***
And BTW, most of these new weapons? they're actually weapons from the early stages of the creation of halo. The Gauss Hog? look at the e3 trailer of Halo1, and the smg? watch the evolution of Halo video. Heh, I'm not sure if I'm the only one who noticed this, but hey, it's nice to see that the creators of Halo1 who never got some of their guns in the game to finally get the recoginition they deserve in Halo2. =D

What's with people thinking MS are making money from Halo 2?

Say there are 20 people in a game shop. 10 Xbox gamers and 10 Pc gamers. Would you make more money from selling a game to half of them, or all of them?

I just think that as the xbox is easyer to produce and cheap - they make a profit by selling off the only thing that can play it - I suppose MS knows that they will have a market when ever they release halo 2 on pc cus lets face it the halo games are ace and one of the best FPS around. I guess good things will come to those who wait - or in this case have to wait.

And a little note to the xbox players - serious gamers take up pc gaming and that is the truth as they can - mod maps - create clans/communities and lets face it what are we all on now look at this ?? PC's are the best no question consoles are for the light harted birthday gamers who play games for two weeks or so and then let the games collect dust.

xbox sucks PC rules! for all games!

still love you though ;-)

how many Halo 2 for pc threads are there are here...what like 1208128378347092837402983......anyways

hers the think kiddos Halo 2 for pc will come out....the QUESTION is when?
I've heard that it will be out next year during summer time around July.
I personally don't want to waste money over an xbox and xbox live which costs extra to play online! Im not gonna pay extra just to connect with people all around the world and play with great fun.
anyways, seriously I just built a computer 4 months ago to play Halo pc. Gettting an xbox would just defeat the whole purpose.

Face it xbox jockies...its comin out to PC sooner or later AND YOU CAN'T DO JACK SHYT ABOUT OUT!!!!
Ahem so, the computer industry is incredibly huge and plus Microsoft makes money for the software it makes, not xbox's my friends. SO therefore when Halo 2 pc comes out BOOOMM!!! sales will sky rockets from all the people who use the almighty computer, like me......LONG LIVE THE COMPUTER!!!
