Ok everyone you may remember me as the pure pc hardcore fan, but not anymore! Tonight, not but a few hours ago I purchased my first xbox from walmart. Yep its true and I got the limited edition xbox that's green and comes with halo. Now I must say playing Halo on the xbox (i think its the controller) is 10 times better than playing it on the PC. In fact I love the experience so much better.
Now that I have taken one step further into the gaming idustry,I can rest assure that I won't have to wait for Halo 2 because I know it will be coming out for my platform! So to sum things up i just wanted to tell everyone that I am an x-PC fan and a new xbox fan!!!!! (although I will still probably play multiplayer on the PC from time to time)

The only reason i have the pc version is so i can play online, I still think its better on x-box espeacialy since you can laugh in your friends face when you beat him without even getting shot once.

Its because Analog is awsome. I'm so confused about it though, because my Nforce 2 IGP, with a 2400+ OC'd runs halo very poorly. But yet, the xbox is Nforce 1, 733Mghz, GeForce 3. and less memory.

If you tweak halo for pc correctly, itll run well. But on the xbox its just so much nicer.

The xbox runs on a gaming specific processor. Thats all the processr does.

I was also thinking the xbox might run smoother becasue there is no operating system running in the background or any or other programs. Plus if you are running Windows XP click crt alt delete all together and then when that window comes up click processes and you'll see that there is a -blam!- load of programs running. So that's probably the reason...

the only reason halo is better on pc is because you can always play multiplayer. you cant always have 15 friends over and play huge lan games. and 1vs1 isnt fun.
the xbox is so much better. i can actually snipe in the xbox. its amazing.and now, with halo2 coming out for live, i never haveta worry about pressing the left shift button to turn on my flashlight again, or the page up button to zoom in..and the banshee is like, 800 times more manuverable on an xbox controller.
