We all know a lot of XB:'s success was because of Halo 2. So what do you think will happen to the Halo 2 xbl community after vista's launch?

Yes I was board and needed to make a topic, cut me some slack for the stupidity -_-

um, those who don't have vista, or don't want it, will stay, those with MACs will stay, those Xbox die hards will stay, and when Halo 3 comes out, every one that's left will come back, some what. and the people from Halo 2 xbox that didn't go vista will spilt in half, or just die out and go to Halo 3. I've got a few people who like playing Halo 2 on the xbox to think real hard about going vista. I for one when Halo 3 comes out and I get a 360, I'll play Halo 3, and Halo 2 Vista, and I'll do all of it on my desk top.

The XBOX Live community will only get better. HALO 2 for Vista will increase says of HALO 1 and 2 for XBOX and HALO for PC. Games for Windows - Live will also encourge people to tryout XBOX Live.

Example: Sales of HALO PC drastically increased at the release of HALO 2 for XBOX.

It is people like you that make people like me need medication.

Honestly I think both will be fine. Most console gamers hate playing on a PC and vice versa. Sure there are a few of us who like playing on both.

There will be a few who go from Xbox to PC but it won't be many. I know I'll continue to play both.

Nothing. H2V will not affect Halo2 on Xbox at all. Most consolers can't afford a Vista PC.

The few, the proud, the leet.

Hopefully, they'll stay where they are. You cant enjoy matchmaking anymore because of them.

Actually Zeph don't let the idiots color your opinion of all of us. I regularly play rumble training and rumble pit. I find that on average the games I am in have 5 or 6 good people and 1 or two idiots. Luckily the idiots just get muted.

So I find that there are far more decent people then idiots. It is just that you will remember the idiots more then you remember the good gamers you played with. Also I guarantee you that there will be plenty of idiots on the PC side too. There always are.

As long as you have someone that can be anonymous for the most part on the net, you will have some that use it to be -blam!-s.

You're absolutely right--Zeph didn't mention that not all Xbox Live members are retards because that just goes without saying.

Still, Xbox Live has more asinine people than many PC gaming communities.

On Halo 2, people are idiots. On halo PC, people are skilled idiots.

HAHAHAHAHAHAHA.......COPH.... HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHa

lol

No but seriously i don't think much will happen to XBL community because Vista costs allot (unless you get the free upgrade) and you need to have a Uber CPU to run H2V better than the Xbox dose. So i think that people that either cant afford the requirements for H2V or are just to lazy will think its not worth it and forget about it.

Oh, come on, it's not like you're buying a house. And you don't need an uber CPU to run Halo 2 Vista.

Ya but i said if you want to run it better than The Xbox dose you do. the minimum is just the lowest bar for H2V you don't really need a uber CPU but if you want to make the experience better than the Xbox you do.

So what I'm saying is that most people will think H2V will be worse than the Xbox version and just forget about it all together.

Most likely not. Although it's hard to think how many PC gamers would possibly care about a three-year-old console port.

What it is.

Technically it's not a port because it's being re-written for Vista. But the fact that it has been on the Xbox ~3 years ago is what makes it the port. Anywho, I am a consoler and have been since the Nintendo. I entered the PC gaming era in early 2004 which is when i picked up Halo PC and started to do stupid mods that were fun at the time. I almost start crying when i hear little like 8-12 year olds on Halo 2 mainly because i thought i was young when i started(i was 14). I personally think, in my case anyway, am going to play more Halo 2 Vista once it comes out cuz of that fact...other than that i dont think the XBL will change.
