If you say so dude... I trust you so far as what you say is your own opinion, but that's about it. Everyone has thier own thoughts on the subject and that appears to be yours... I, on the other hand, disagree.

Oh, and yes... I DO own an XBox and Halo...

I have alot more fun on the Xbox version. However thats only because I have a geforce 2 with 64 megs. It doesn't look so good, but once I get a better one I'll be playing that more.

I have an Xbox however I never gotten Halo or Halo 2 on the Xbox because I personally like playing first person shooter games using a keyboard and mouse. The only purpose for the Xbox for me is playing the fighting games like Soul Calibur 2, Dead or Alive series, and Metal Gear Solid and MGS clones. Other then that, I keep first person shooter games on the PC.

Only if you have a good pc. My pc is alright but I like my Xbox better. I guess I just like using a controler better.

Use a controller for the PC version and once you get used to it, you'll love it!

HALO 2 on Live is ages better than bug-ridden HALO PC online.

Everyone to thier own dude... I don't fair too bad considering the amount of posts on here saying that you can't play effectively with a controller.

It just comes down to what you're used to I suppose...

i Use a Trackball :D its really better then a mouse in evre way. the mouse seams like a DOWGRADE to me..

Trackball > Xbox 2 Orignal Controler > Xbox 2 smaller Controler > Mouse.

dude, wait one second, you say the xbox is better than the PC??? Well, I am here to prove you wrong:

1.PC has better graphics

2.PC has better internet connection

3.PC has keyboard/mouse

4.The Xbox is an expensive HypeMachine with nothing behind it

And don't bother saying thats your opinion because that sentence is more like telling people to use instead of you liking it or what not. As for telling people using a controller or not, this place is called "PC forum" so either you're flame baiting or just being stupid, everybody should know that PC gaming don't use controllers for certain type of game.

anyone here actualy play halo2? it has alsorts of bugs that would be solved by having it on PC. for example, that glitch where when cutscenes switch scenes it goes from low res---> high res. you just don't get that kinda lag on PC.
true, halo PC has a crapy netcode, but that's 'cause it wasn't changed much from xbox lan. halo PC online is simply a program to 'trick' HALO into thinking it's on a lan, when it's actually online. since lan and online conections are diffrent, halo PC online sucks.

now a slightly related argument for halo 2 PC.
since halo 2 is alredy xbox live compatable, nothing will have to be tricked. you can alredy play online, and not even gearbox can screw it up

Personally, I like Halo PC better. Why? Graphics, online, and control.

I can customize my controls. Besides, I have the USB adapter for my xbox controllers so I don't have to grow accustomed to mouse+keyboard and then switch to the controller for LAN parties.

Graphics are way better. Radeon 9600 Pro and 3.06 GHz...soon to be the x800 XT and 3.6 GHz. An xbox has nothing on my system.

Online...hell yes, it may sometimes be glitchy, but it's still hella fun. Especially all of the mods on it now.
