Microsoft hates PC gamers? Why they invented windows?


Microsoft stole the idea of Windows from others, and those others stole it from Xerox.

M$ doesn't really care about PC gaming at all (don't tell the boys working on DirectX that) they'd much rather have you play on Xbox, pay for Xbox Live, and buy lots of Xbox controllers.

All I ask is that you don't try to capture me.

H3 PC has never been, and never will be considered for development.

Can we put this thread to bed now?

If you lived to be 100,
I want to live to 100 minus 1 ,
so I never have to spend a day without you.

Atheist? Deist? Skeptic? Free thinker? If you're one of these, or a theist looking for a good debate, try the Secular Sevens!

DirectX is such a waste,
just 5 games currently support DX11, waste.

Time to put Halo 3 PC to bed now.
The great Xbox 360 game would've done so much better on PC (with DX11) XD ... ='(

We should request a lock on this topic. ='(

Halo 3 PC... Hmmm... that Would have been nice!

Halo Reach PC über alles!

Well, it may be completely confirmed that Bungie & Microsoft, don't even care for PC gaming, and wouldn't release H3PC unless it was absolutely necessary. But this thread can still exist if we do either one of two options.

1. We can weep over the fact that H3PC will never come out, and we could talk about all the things we would still have expected out of H3PC.

or 2. We can think of some ideas on how we can persuade Bungie (or whomever might be associated with Microsoft Game Studios) to do this for us. Besides there is still plenty of time before Halo Reach/the next E3, Maybe if we try to be demanding about it we can still let a great 360 game see the light of day on the PC.

So what do you say? The decision is yours.


EDIT: And thus, the dream dies. But from the ashes, a dream for Halo Reach on the PC.

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

It will be on pc eventually, either as a port, or running in a future 360 emulator.

You're right, but there isn't even a xbox emulator at the moment. So, we'll have to wait a lot for the xbox360 emulator.

There is one in constant development called CXBX for PC. and the 360 had a emulator for xbox 1 games too.

Does an emulator let you to play online?
Anyhow, I still think that the development of the 360 emulator will need too many years.

any emulator can be played online, but that really depends if the devs added online function.

Halo 2: Why We Mod

I always refer to this video, and then think,
I want Halo 3 for PC.

but, Bungie and Microsuck do their best to limit creativity.
example, Halo 2 Vista.

considering halo wars was awful, and i would never even torrent it its so bad....you do gotta admit it would be a little better on pc i mean all rts games are only good on pc (EXCLUDING STARCRAFT64) halowars would be better on pc and probably playable to a point if properly ported

Nice find, It still would be nice if we had H3PC though. And not in the form of a crap-job like H2V

Gentlemen,

Through the doubt spewed on this whole page, I find words you should rely upon and use to your advantage:

We still run this show. We are the bosses. We are their customers. We own them.

Oh, BTW: That HBO article does NOT say there "never" will be a Halo 3pc.

I think it is very unlikely Halo 3 for PC will ever be made and if it was it would have to be released before Halo: Reach or it wouldn't be to popular because PC users would get a game that was released around 3 years ago and Xbox 360 users will already have a way newer Halo game to play.

Wait a minute I just had an idea, what if they haven't made Halo 3 for the PC yet because they want to release both Halo 3 and Halo 3: ODST in one package which they would label Halo 3 for the PC. It could have two discs one would hold the campaigns for each game and firefight mode while the other would have the multiplayer experience that could be cross platform. Of course the first disc would also have a theater mode and the ability to take pictures but also Halo 3's original campaign would be upgraded to Halo 3: ODST's slightly improved graphics or both campaigns and firefight would be improved even more so for the computer. The second disc would be almost identical to Halo 3: ODST's multiplayer disc and would have the same graphics as Xbox 360 Halo 3 so it could be cross platform. Maybe it could also have a third disc for just PC multiplayer play with improved graphics, exclusive maps, and a map editor where you can completely make your own maps (this would replace forge on this disc).
