Yeah man, there's an official post for this.

Oh well, I hate to be so brisk. It probably will, as they would lose a big market - but that's only one reason. Read the main threads and you'll see why :)

lol that means that it is only for the xbox at the time of its initial release. The original halo had the same thing on it and lo and behold, a pc version came. BTW halo 2 is comming out for pc... microsoft isn't retarded, they juts want people to buy xbox's so they don't announce anything for pc and they says its not comming but then like 1 year later they release it for pc..... tricky basterds.

Chronicles of Riddick has the label "only on Xbox" and now it is also on PC.

I agree with the statement that it will soon be out for PC--just not yet. As of now, the main thing that Bungie and Microsoft are doing is selling Xboxes, and the only way to do so is to make a very popular game Xbox-only. Halo 2 is really just a way to sell Xboxes, and it will remain that way until there is enough revenue to live off of sells on the PC.

chances are it'll never come out on PC because the graphics are so advanced i don't think even it could play on the best comp out there, i mean even Everquest 2 can't play on any computer on full detail levels and it has barely any detail compared to Halo 2

The Xbox is over 3 years old. If you got a new comp with the most advanced graphics and sound stuff out there, it could EASILY play Halo 2.


Lol, understament. The xbox has the equivalent power of about a 4 year old PC. The xbox 2 is predicated to have the power of a PC from last year, at best. Modern top-of-the-range PC's overpower xbox's tenfold. Everquest 2 has about the same level of detail as Halo 2, because it's an MMO, therefore it's graphics must be low in order to create minimal net-lag. When Halo 2 comes to PC, however, it'll be able to have a good resolution and framerate that the xbox's minimal hardware denies it. Also the draw distance will be increased, the load times will be shorter and detail textures will actually load BEFORE you've had time to make a cup of tea and use the bathroom. Half Life 2 and FarCry are having to be toned down to run on the xbox, Ubisoft themselves even admitted that the draw distance in Farcry is having to be cut dramatically. Consoles will never be better gaming machines than a kick-ass PC; the reason? Upgradability.

Not to be rude, but you obviously have no freaking idea of what you are talking about. PC's rock. Consoles are stripped down PC's that are generally outdated compared to computers soon after launch.

ho hum. let's think for a sec, what is an xbox?
a crappy, close-to-useless computer, without the ability to install.
ohh yeah, it's 5 years old.
that means any computer made within the last 3 years could easily outstrip an xbox; just 'cause xbox was made with the top-of-the-line hardware at the time

If you're going to continue being stupid, I suggest you go back to the Xbox forum since you clearly don't have a clue of what you're talking about.

Heyyo,

Lol, oh the $box players, how they make me laugh with their ignorance. :)

All your $box, are belong to M$. Can't play modded $box online with Halo2. Why? M$ hates you. Each copy of Halo2 comes complete with a trojan horse that detects wether your $box has a modchip innit. If it does? they cut off your online play on live, even though you PAY money to use it, lol, gj. =D

By the time Halo2 comes out for PC, Halo 2.5 will be out for $box2, so we'll probably get Halo 2.5 so our graphics will be the smex and $box1 will be old and not as good.

Here, letme try and break it down into lamen terms for those in need of aid:

lol, roflmao, omgz, $box = oldz n fugly u n33dz a nu PC, lolz, gg re

Actually it'd make sense for them to release Halo 2 on Pc and 2.5 on console at the same time: 1) renewed hype, 2) improved graphics etc. The fact that they'd be almost the exact same game coupled with the intention of letting Pc and Xbox2 players compete against each other means releasing halo 2 on both systems at the same time would be a r0x0r marketing strategy.
