I have read alot of post about this i even surfed the halo2sucks website and now realize its time to put all this stuff behind us. If you like Halo over Halo 2 good for you, play Halo. If you like Halo 2 over Halo, play Halo 2, if you likeboth play both. Its as simple as that. Stop saying i can't believe they took the pistol out, or they took the pistol out because it was unfair. Who cares, last time i checked it was a video game there for you enjoyment, if you don't get enjoyment out of it stop playing. (Sorry bungie i am just trying to be truthful here). I think both games are good, they both have there plus and minus which i am not going to go into, but I enjoy each one and still play each one. i am sure i am gonna get called a noob, or i stink or what not i don't care, its time for people to let this stuff go once and for all.

Given that there is no Halo 2 and not alot of the PC people have played it, this probably belongs in the Halo 2 forum instead.

heyyo,

Don't worry aboot bungie, they don't read the forums cause they don't care. They ain't the company they used to be.

Although Halo2 upsets me, I pretty much have to learn to cope with it. Everyone's gonna flock to it, and so must I if I wanna beat the crap outta people and not just sp AI. :p

Yeah, due to the lack of Halo2PC, this's more for those $box players.

They do read the forums. What else would Frankie do? What they don't do is worry too much about the complainers because they realize that the few complainers are whining on the forums and the other 99% like their games and don't talk on the forums to tell them thanks. By the way Thank you Bungie. It is a well known through out the society of the educated that you must as a publisher be careful before obeying an outspoken minority (complainers). This applies more to the video games industry because if your game is good you supporters will be too busy playing the game. Thats why the number of posts went down when Halo 2 was realeased, not counting the ones that are complaining.

Maybe you should run along and play with all your other xbox friends instead of telling us PC users how to think.

Maybe you should respect the opinion of what this guy has just said.

Heyyo,

Yesterday, I popped in HaloPC.. saw 2012 player playing it...

I popped in Battlefield 1942... OMG! 6030 PLAYERS!!! :o

Note the number difference on those games. And complainers aren't the minority, they are the HaloPC gamers cause we gotta half-good product. A quick hack n' slash job that was made to just further advertise Halo for $box. It runs like junk on systems much more powerful than an $box, and lots of warping caused by bad netcode.. and don't tell me it's because they made the netcode for 56k dialup. I had dial up, this game sucks on dial up. As soon as their's more than 10 people? you lag out and get disconnected from the server. I bet it's because they want people to think an $box is better and it seems to have worked cause lots of $box flamers come on here and proclaim their version of Halo is better, gj m$, you confused the blind... now "try" and give us a properly made Halo2PC.

Now, Battlefield 1942 is made by DICE. They support the game heavily. The very powerful and good Punkbuster anti-cheat system, native Linux DServer support, very useful patches, multiplayer AI, GREAT netcode, very high detailed textures and graphics, full modding support, full mapping support. They even released a new patch just because of a special hack that punkbuster apparently couldn't catch! Great company, great game. I've bought almost all the Battlefield game releases. I just need Road to Rome now, and Battlefield 2 is one of my top priority game buys in the near future. Sure, they're hard at work on Battlefield 2, but they still care a lot for their past releases. :)

For me the decision is easy. Halo 2 is another 2 hyundai to get going and currently halo 1 is still enjoyable. By the time i get to Halo 2 the game surely will have improved quite a bit and they may even come down in price for the HDTV flat screens so I can really do it right. I hope the microsoft/bungie/gearbox design group really keeps enhancing the video aspects for High Definition because I can see myself playing a version of this game in 5 years when it is all more affordable and advanced. No offense to Xbox live but it seems redundant to pay for hi speed and the live component both.

Heyyo,

No, $box live has no excuses for charging money on something that should be free. PS2 has free online play, so does Dreamcast. $box was the first to charge money cause m$'s greedy like that.

get xboxconnect: http://www.xboxconnect.com

that's free, and just as good as $box live... and I say better. You can play Halo1 for $box online multiplayer with $boxconnect. ;)

Heyyo Mard,

Is there DLC on dreamcast or ps2, no. I have a ps2 and i say i will pay for my Xbox live because it is so much better. I am a pc man but xbox is good to, you shouldn't spend all of your time trying to make out to be a piece of -blam!-.

Lol mard have you seen UT2K4's player list? it's about 2000 aswell... per gametype, of which there are about 15. It's nuts, there's more people playing Onslaught-Torlan than there is playing the whole of Halo. Although to be fair that map is AWESOME.

There's no one playing CE. All the maps are New Mombassa anyway which is a boring map....
