One can only hope...

IMO, later is better than sooner (though, not too late). By giving it more time, much can be improved upon throughout the porting process. Though not exactly the same case, take the Microsoft pushed early release date of Halo 2 for the Xbox as an example. Think about how much better the game could have been by allowing just a little more time in the development process.

Cheers.

I have a felling that it won't be ported over, seeing as the 360's graphics are far supirior to a computer's. And even if it did come out it would have to have a complete overhaul, so as not to use up all your computer's space.

Ever heard of Crysis?

Come on, it's a freaking console, it just can't compare with the power of a PC. A decent gaming rig could run circles around a PS3, nevermind a 360. Why do you think computers are still around? Can you upgrade your 360 to improve its performance? No. That's why you see new consoles coming out while PCs have a much longer longevity, and PC tech evolves much faster. Gaming computers offer performance, power, and flexibility that no console can or probably ever will.

Alas, all PCs are not created equal, which is where consoles win. Your PC is probably a piece of crap, which it would make sense why you'd think a 360 would do better than PCs (when it's really just your PC). But a good machine is way ahead of the consoles.

Ditto. How much does the best PC cost anyway, like, $5000?
More like $2000, give or take.

By the way, I'm fourteen, too. You don't have to be thirty to know this. :)

Master Kim, you're that young??? Don't take it as an insult, I just never expected that. =/

  • 04.23.2007 1:44 PM PDT

I think you're being a bit harsh, It's almost enough to put someone off of this forum, they make a tiny miscalkulation, I only joined because I wanted to know why my computer can't run halo! I Join come here ask, then post in ONE other topic and get flammed to death!

Edit: And how many people have a computer that can generate that good graphics?

I do, I've maxed my gfx for Halo CE, only one map that I know of has ever looked like I had every thing on low, and it was happening to every one.
I'm not gaming on a gaming computer, but if you know how to build a computer, you can build a computer that can look like, sound, and run like a gaming computer, two of my friends has done that and their computers look nice.
Some day I which to build me my own custom made computer, but oh well I wish I had more money.

That's what people said about H2 being on pc, they didn't think it would happen. No one really knows except bungie, they're the ones who decide to port it or not. In time we will know. That's probably gonna be in 2-3 years considering Bungie's past with importing Halo games from the Xbox to the PC. If it does go on pc, it would probably be very graphically demanding.

Get Marathon Here
Get Marathon 2 and Infinity Here

Well, seeing as Bungie didn't do the port for Halo, isn't doing the port for Halo 2, I don't think it's likely they will port Halo 3.

And just a note to certain people here, Halo 2 Vista isn't a Bungie project, and that is why it's not on their list of priorities in terms of giving us info, so please cease complaining, Bungie's dedication to PC fans goes as far as letting a port happen and giving us a dedicated board on their forum, this is a sad fact at present but it's not like they have been hiding it.

I've also learned this lesson the hard way. If you say "Xbox" in the Maw, every pc gamer here will automatically hate you. I dunno why they hate the xbox so much, I personally think 360>pc, but I never used any pc better than a 360 before except maybe at bestbuy a month ago running Half life 2. (Horrible fps I may add, but I dunno).

Atleast their not mac fanbois.

You're not alone--just look at Iggwilv. If it makes you feel any better, I've been playing RTS since I was six. :)

For the last time, we really couldn't care less. About half the people here owns an Xbox, or some other console. I own a 360. We don't really hate Xbox or other consoles so much as we prefer PCs over them. We're all gamers, no? Halo's first platform was on the Xbox, was it not?

By the way, PCs > Xbox. :D
