Subject: A New Unofficial "Halo 3 PC" Thread

Jason Jones of Bungie famously said of Halo 2 that: "it's Halo 1 on fire going 120 miles per hour through a hospital zone chased by helicopters and ninjas. And the ninjas are all on fire too." As a sequel, Halo 2 couldn't quite live up to that extravagant claim.

I heard GFWL uses a picture of Halo 3 in one of there ads. People over there have been wondering if thats proof.

I saw a video on youtube which showed a Halo 3 picture in GFWL site. But it was a long time ago and I don't know if it is still there.

The picture was for if you subscribed to Microsoft Download Notifications. Under the games section of the emailed newsletter, there would be a picture showing 3 different games and one of them showed Halo 3. They don't send that picture anymore though. But it's obviously not proof as Microsoft has not announced plans for a Halo 3 PC yet. They're more focused on Halo: Reach now which will definitely sell better, faster, and make Microsoft more money than Halo 3 PC. Perhaps after Halo: Reach and all possible DLC maps have been released, then Microsoft will go back and reconsider Halo 3 PC. But all I can say is that you won't see Halo 3 PC yet, not for a few more years at the very least.

If that were the case H2V wouldn't have come out until mid 2008

I never said it applied to Halo 2 PC and Halo 3 on Xbox 360. My guess is that they started working on Halo 2 shortly after it was released. But then changed a lot of stuff when Windows Vista was released. However, at the time Microsoft might not have forseen what a huge hit Halo 3 would be. It probably took them by surprise. After the release of Halo 3, Microsoft realized the potential to make more money on the console platform so they're focusing all their resources on the console versions to make more money. As you can see, Halo 2 PC was released when Halo 2 on the Xbox wasn't selling anymore. Once a game stops selling on the console, Microsoft will release it on PC to try and squeeze a little more money out of the game.

Right now, Halo 3 is actually still selling a little bit and recently ODST sales went up a little bit thanks to the Reach Beta. So until Halo 3 and ODST stop selling, you're not going to see a PC release. That's just the way it is with Microsoft's games.

I don't understand why they don't release PC and Xbox360 version at the same time, and make them cross-platform.

Microsoft won't lose out anyway, because only true gamers would get the PC version.

They're the most dumbest company.

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

Because they want to stamp a "Only on 360" logo on their boxes. That also means that PS3 Fanboys must buy a 360 for Halo 3.

I think apple is dumber though. Not only is their software closed (both in source and in apps), but the hardware is closed too. With macs, you need to buy special upgrades, and OS X will not run on PCs (without hacks, of course).

Also, apple locked people in to buying ipods for a while with DRM. THey removed it from songs, but it is still there on videos and songs you already own.

OMG I completely agree with you. Have you read Apple's EULA? It makes Microsoft software look like open source. What's ironic is that Steve Jobs gave this whole speech about how much he hates proprietary software yet Apple products are the very definition of proprietary. Basically their policy is that closed-source is bad unless it's from Apple. What a hypocritical company.

Personally, I have never been bothered by Microsoft's closed-source policy. But Apple, that's just going way too far. The thing is closed-source proprietary software tend to be of higher quality than open source software. Take Microsoft Office and Open Office. Which one is better? Obviously Microsoft Office. Why? Because people pay money for it and that money is used to provide improvements to the next version. So I will always support proprietary closed-source software as long as the next versions are always a lot better than the previous version like Windows XP to Windows Vista. The only reason a lot of people hate Vista is because the news and the media hates it. So if the media says something, then everyone else will go with what the media says. Windows Vista is actually a really good operating system. It could've been polished a little bit more, but I found it to be very satisfactory.

Now releasing Halo 3 on PC with the Xbox 360 version at the same time would cause Microsoft to lose some money. They would have to spend a lot of money first porting it to the PC then producing all the copies of the game. No matter what, the Xbox 360 version will always sell better and not as many people will buy the PC version. How do I know this is true? I'm pretty sure there wasn't a huge mob of people outside of every store that sold Halo 2 PC on the night it was released. Basically Microsoft would be spending more money on producing the PC version than they would make selling it.

And what is worse, is that fanboys actually gobble this up, and regard it as truth. Not to say I hate apple products. I am fond of my Macbook Pro (which is OK, but I wish it were cheaper), but the fan club (Cult) and the policy REALLY piss me off.

I'll admit, I'm an Xbox 360 and Microsoft Windows fanboy or just a Microsoft fanboy. However, unlike Apple fanboys, I'm not going to flock to the nearest Apple Store to buy Apple's next new product which is really just an extra large iPod touch. Apple fanboys pretty much worship Apple and Steve Jobs. They'll do anything for Apple and buy everything from Apple. My friend is an Apple fanboy and he has almost every Apple product every made since the 1990's. You can imagine the constant debates we have.

But yeah, to anybody that complains about Microsoft and their EULA policies, you should appreciate what Microsoft is offering you. It could be worse, a lot worse.

I don't think comparisons to Apple's EULA's make Microsoft's any less evil. I took a look at my copy of Halo 2 Vista today and on the disc it says, "Do not lend or make illegal copies of this disc". Actually insinuating it's not okay to lend it to a friend. Last I checked, it was morally acceptable to lend a DVD or novel, but Microsoft is trying to change that perception. I'm not trying to troll, but I worry about the next generation's ability to do anything with computers over the next decade. By that time, the big corporations could have complete control over one of the world's most vital information systems. And companies always value revenue over moral sensibility. I just wish the free/libre software world had more to offer in terms of reliability and style right now. Even with my desperation to escape proprietary software, there's so much you just can't do with a computer without it.

I really don't mind proprietary software though. It's worth the money I pay for it. I'd rather pay for Microsoft Windows than try to get Linux working. I'd much rather use Microsoft Office than Open Office mainly because of the features.

The reason why you're not allowed to loan Halo 2 Vista to friends is because there is a product license that comes with it and the license is for one user only. A DVD movie does not have a product license nor does it need product activation. That EULA only applies to certain Microsoft products. Virtual PC 2007 is proprietary yet it's free and you can share it with other people as long as you don't violate copyright laws.

Now when it comes to Xbox 360 games, the EULA is a bit different. Since Xbox 360 games don't need product activation or license keys, it doesn't fall under the same restrictions as Games For Windows Live games. So like I said, it really depends on the product.

Microsoft's EULA is definitely much more friendly and less restricting than Apple's. At least you can install Microsoft Windows on any computer you want.

Well, I'm still a Microsoft fanboy as well as a supporter of proprietary software. But if you really want to look at Microsoft and Apple as evil, then sure, Microsoft is much more friendly and customer-caring than Apple.

ok then, this is how it should go.
For a software to be considered proprietary, it must be still updated every time.
If software goes 1 year with out an update, they should open source it, or sell it.
In this case, H2V and Halo 1 PC/CE should be open sourced.

I actually happen to agree with this. I think that if a company discontinues support for a product it should then fall into the public domain.

Look at how many good games and other programs are now useless because the company dropped support, servers, patches, etc, or simply went bankrupt or got bought out.

I have an entire stack of games, for both PC and 360, that I will never play online again because the company decided to quit support.

Even modern games can be useless. Go out and buy a brand new copy of some games, such as a number of EA games like Madden 09, and you can no longer play it online.

The case will say you can, but when you get home with your 2009 game you will find that even though its still fairly new (IE PS3, 360, and PC), there are no servers because EA shut them down.

If a company will no longer support a game they have NO right to continue to profit from it. I can buy Halo PC and H2V new at walmart, but neither one are ever going to be supported or patched again. If the company no longer wishes to support the product then wtf are we paying them for?...

They either need to open source, or take it off the market.

Well technically, Halo 2 Vista isn't out of support yet. It still falls under Microsoft's Mainstream Lifecycle Support Policy. So it shouldn't be open source yet under your ideas. The problem with them making their software open source is that not every component of that software is no longer updated. Windows Product Activation will never be open source and that's a huge part of Halo 2 Vista. Windows XP will never be open source because its WINNT codebase will also be made open source and that could cause potential security problems with future WINNT-based operating systems.

I think most Microsoft products are fine where they are. But I guess I do agree with you for certain products. I would like to see Win9x os's be made open source. I still enjoy using some Win9x OS's sometimes and I think a lot of people out there could make even newer and better versions of Win9x systems.

Also, there are some Apple products that go almost, if not over a year, without being updated. Yet they are still supported by Apple. Also, Halo 2 Vista has Games For Windows Live integrated into which is also another proprietary system that's constantly being updated. You can't make Halo 2 Vista open source without making GFWL open source (which will never happen even under your ideas).

Microsoft has released a open source game, without the networking component, so it will still work.
GFWL isn't an integration, it is an addon, only certain aspects of H2V will call upon xlive.dll like achievements, signing in and multiplayer.

Have you seen this? (GTA) IV-MP
This works by removing GFWL, GFWL is just an addon, which is why it can be removed so easily, it isn't 100% dependent on running with the game.

That isn't support. It's a date. Try to outline actual circumstances where someone has encountered a problem with H2V and it has been subsequently addressed or even solved by anyone at Microsoft. Or maybe H2V is so perfect that no one has ever needed changes/improvements/bug fixes. As Bill Gates has apparently said, Microsoft releases have no significant bugs.

Look, I'm sorry for being so contrary, but why defend MS on this? If the game works for you, then great, but shooting down the claims of those who can't get it working just makes it that much harder to get a resolution.

My point was that Halo 2 Vista is still officially being supported by Microsoft whether or not updates are being released. I'm not really taking a side here even though I like Microsoft. I'm trying to be objective here and just present facts as I see them. Also, that interview you provided is over 14 years old. Today, if there's a bug, it will be swiftly updated through Windows Update. In that interview, the guy was talking about Microsoft Word 6.0. I believe we are up to Microsoft Word 2010 now (beta). If there is a significant bug in a Microsoft product that is still in Mainstream Support, Microsoft will release a patch for it. Halo 2 Vista for the most part doesn't really have any more bugs after the most recent patch. There might occasionally be some server issues, but that's about it. To be objective here, the free Microsoft Game Tinker which has no multiplayer mode, recently had a patch released for it when Microsoft realized there was a small glitch with achievements. Tinker isn't a very popular game and is less played than Halo 2 Vista. Yet because there's a major bug in it, Microsoft will fix it. And I wasn't shooting down claims of people who can't get it to work. The original argument was that if Microsoft doesn't support certain software anymore, then it should be made open-source. But since Halo 2 Vista is still in Mainstream Support, then it shouldn't be made open source yet.
