Wow, cHr0n0sPh3r3 you think a $450 Xbox 360 is as good as a $3000 PC. I just built a new computer, 500GB hard drive, 2.33 Ghz Core 2 Duo processor, 650i motherboard, Geforce 8600GT video card, 2GB of RAM, and a case with a 500 watt power supply for $650. It kicks the crap out of the Xbox 360. Bioshock on 360 has problems with framerate drops, not my PC. I can do anything the xbox 360 can do on my computer and have native keyboard and mouse support. I admit that the 360 is a great console, but a console is still a dumbed down computer. Also, I don't have to worry about getting red rings of death, blue screens of death are user error 99% of the time. In short you don't know anything about computers, so shut your mouth.
Consoles are PC's with different operating systems so GTFO and learn before speaking.
Don't ever say a PC is inferior to a console, EVER.

I hope you have enjoyed this lesson on *PC's and Consoles* and hope that next time you make a claim you have solid facts, numbers, etc...

Man, I miss the old MAW, when we had standards for members and had members that really knew their stuff. [/reminiscing]
Also guys, don't try to avoid the blam filters.

Sorry if you took it that way, i was just saying an X box is basically a cheapo Computer, and mate ever heard of moderation? Youll never fill 500 Gigs of HD space.
X box = Cheap computer, that is so -blam!- it isnt funny...
PS3 = A true console built from ground up as a console
and seriously? dont get infuriated with the first two sentences of anyone's post

Most of the PC issues posted here are the result of PEBKAC.

Just to drop some knowledge, the Xbox 360 processor has twice the FSB of the latest desktop processors.

Its easy to go through 500 GB. I have all my games, there backups. Alot of music and videos, and raw video files eat up space, I do some video editing.
So enough is never enough really. I need to set up in raid 0 and see the load times drop.
I don't care about FSB if the processor has poor arcitechure. Core 2 Duo and Quad and alot of AMD processors. The IBM processor is just very wasteful in the 360. I can't wait till we get the octacore processors that servers are starting to get now.

It just seems like Bungie don't have any respect for The PC Community and they don't care for us so why would I want them to port Halo 3 for the PC?
I'll take any logical reason right now.

I have to say I want to see it for PC. When Halo 2 came out for Xbox I took a sick dayt from work. As soon as it came out for PC I got both Halo's. I just could not get myself to buy a XBox 360 after I built my gamming PC. I would say if I takes a year to get done I would be OK with that. If it takes any longer then I might start getting a little upset. As long as I do not have the lastest video card out there to play it I will be very happy. If I can use a 6 month old model that is fine with me.

The main unit of the Xbox 360 itself has slight concavity on both of its longer sides in matte white or black. It features a port on the top (when vertical, left side when horizontal) to which a custom-housed hard drive unit can be attached in sizes of either 20, or 120 GB. Inside, the Xbox 360 uses the triple-core IBM designed Xenon as its CPU. While graphics processing is handled by the ATI Xenos which has 10 MB of embedded eDRAM, its main memory pool is 512 MB in size.

Yes its an IBM processor

thats 2 long... what is a summary of it?


The summary?
The Summary is that everyone on this damn forum blames gearbox for stuff when it's microsoft. It's ALWAYS Microsoft's fault. I'm not even joking here guys... everything they have done to the PC game market has been absurdly negative. Stop blaming bungie or someone contracted to be a scapegoat, and read the damn thread just once (I did two years ago) so we can stop hearing someone continue to blame someone else for M$'s arrogance and stupidity.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time. I know who you are. You are destiny.

That's just weird.

Also, whats an MG42?

In what may be nearly unbelievable news, word is circulating around the web that Bungie Studios’ days under Microsoft may be over. The initial news first started from the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, an outlet known for its Microsoft-related information, and has since grown legs as other media have followed up on the story.


According to an email received by the Post-Intelligencer, Microsoft has released Bungie Studios from its ownership. The deal is apparently done, but Microsoft wishes to hold the public announcement until after October 6 for the protection of quarterly financial results.


The email reads: “Apparently MS just wants Bungie to make Halo for the rest of their natural days, and Bungie doesn't like how MS is constantly trying to "handle" everything they do; the way they market their games, the way they interact with their fans (basically the fact that they do appreciate their fans), and how stingie [sic] they are with the profits (comparable to the rest of the industry). So as of today they are their own independent entity.”


Game Informer checked with its own sources and reports that Bungie and Microsoft separated on October 1, 2007. According to the magazine, Bungie did not wish to be tied down to indefinitely making Halo games. As a result, shareholders of Bungie bought the studio name back from Microsoft for “an unstated, but significant amount of money.”


Microsoft will retain all rights to the Halo franchise, assuring that the Master Chief will never grace competitors’ systems, and will also hold “the right of first refusal on future games,” meaning that Halo 3 probably won’t be the last Xbox 360 exclusive title from Bungie Studios.


When asked for comment, Microsoft’s PR representatives did not deny or confirm the validity of such events. “To your question, there's been no such announcement. We can't comment further,” said one representative to 1UP, while another said, “There's been no such announcement. We continue to celebrate the tremendous success of the global phenomenon that is Halo 3.”


It’s unlikely that any official confirmation or denial of Bungie’s split from Microsoft will appear before the end of the week. The only thing certain right now is that the door locks on Bungie’s offices in Kirkland, WA have all been changed – perhaps as a sign of a change in ownership.

Pfffft, no way Bungie prolly isnt separating, and im sure M$ would do anything to keep Bungie, look how much money they made for the *selecting choice of descriptions under humungo pile of descriptions* Bstards. Unless M$ is the one dumping Bungie, cause you know Halo 3 was the last one in the story arc and stuff, like all their uses been used yeah...

Ahem anyways nah Bungie wouldnt, if they separate Halo 3 is gunna go cold and bye bye PC port...Speaking of port *Grabs a bottle and gets hammered*

Let me ask you two questions: Does anybody need a terabyte hard drive? Probably not. Does anybody want a terabyte hard drive? Hell to the yes.
