Well, now that Halo: Reach is coming out, Halo 3 pretty much is obsolete. If it was just like what happened with Halo 2, then they would've announced Halo 3 PC by now.

I'm not on Facebook, so I don't know very well how the site works. But do you know what is this?

I'm not sure but I've heard that on Facebook people can create groups. So I was wondering if someone who has an account on Facebook could open a gruop of people who want halo 3 PC. Maybe, if we do so, we will be more visible, don't you think?

well it should and they should add new features such as playing with people on xbox 360 and and they should add new maps for free then they should make halo 3 custom edition with then in campaign or multiplayer you can make customizable HUDs
Halo 3 should be for vista and 7 because if they make it for xp the graphics woud be dx 9 and look just like halo 2 vista and we would not want that again so we need halo 3 vista/7 not xp or we all suffer from crappy graphics lol plus h3 pc is probably a dx10 so even if there was an xp crack just like the one for halo 2 vista it would not work because of dx 10 and xp isn't compatible with it. only reason h2 vista got a crack for xp is because it is dx 9 while xp is compatible and even if they made a crack for xp the graphics would basically look like h2 vista's

haha warned by a -blam!-ot mod for making a thread that singles out an individual. I'm a GANGSTA now!

I'm not sure but perhaps someone besides Bungie will be asked to port Halo 3 to the PC, as a few posts in these threads have suggested Gearbox and etc.

  • 07.02.2010 9:18 AM PDT

Fail.
XP losers should have moved to either Windows Vista or Windows 7.
Also, Halo 3 is DX9 + part DX11, Tessellation is a DX11 feature.

So it would be pointless to downgrade Halo 3 graphics just to accommodate those XP users.Posted by: Blind Man Viper

Why don't you take your fail else where.
We all know Bungie is only making Halo Reach as their last part in the Halo IP.
We want Halo 3+Reach+ODST for PC.

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

They don't need to downgrade them. They can just lock the settings so XP users can't max it out.

Oh, and MS owns the halo IP. THEY are responsible for H3PC. NOT bungie. Oh, and bungie's new IP will be for pc.

Bungie's new IP is supposedly for every platform. Although it may not be on certain platforms like the Wii for performance issues. But generally, their new IP will be available on most modern platforms. Personally, I'd prefer Bungie partnered with EA instead of Activision, but oh well. Don't be surprised one day if you see in the news that Bungie is suing Activision and vice versa. After what happened with Infinity Ward, Bungie needs to be careful.

Infinty Ward is owned by Activison, Bungie is just partnered with them, I doubt they same fiasco will happen with theit new IP, which is only coming out for PS3, Xbox 360 and PC

Ugh, I'd prefer if Bungie didn't go for PS3. Xbox 360 and PC are fine.

pffft, Mac's are not a very good platform for gaming. The majority of games today are programmed around Windows API's. There's simply more to gain from making a game on Windows. Plus, Mac's are too proprietary to program for. Have you ever read their EULA? Seriously, Microsoft get's soooo many anti-trust cases for small things like bundling Internet Explorer with Windows 95. Such a small thing and the government freaks! But look at Apple, they are the very definition of proprietary. They make Microsoft's EULA look like GNU. I smell some Apple fanboys in the government.

I just thought about Mac, because Bungie loves Mac. xD

I think flaws in Halo PC and Halo 2 Vista is are example that can be utilized in order to avoid similar mistakes and improve on certain aspects if and when a Halo 3/ODST or even Halo: Reach port is to be made, which hopefully is sooner than when most people say it is. If a good company was asked by Microsoft to port Halo 3/ODST or Reach, I believe they will put enough work into it to make it the best of the Halo series on PC, and bring a sense of nostalgia to Bungie and Halo fans without Xbox 360s, have 360s but not live, or just are fans that want the game. If a current 360-exclusive Halo game is ported to the PC soon, I think more responsibility, caution, effective/efficient, and high-quality method will be used to achieve a product that will appeal to many gamers and PC users - expanding the community and also how most PC games should contain editing kits should further reminisce Halo: Combat Evolved and Custom Edition but what most might deem as an obsolete engine or graphics, they could also touch up on that and system requirements, a lesson that could also be extracted from the release and feedback of Halo 2 PC. I have a degree of trust and hope in Microsoft that if a XB360 exclusive Halo game, namely 3, ODST, or Reach was decided by MS (with the binding/assistance from another company[?]) to be ported, it won't be exaggerated length and neither a sprint, but I believe it won't make the same mistakes as H2PC, which is what history can be used for (though the same might not apply in certain circumstances as you can learn from past mistakes, but may make new ones - that's what the Bungie, Games for Windows Live forums, Modacity, and other forums of conglomerated and diverse PC gamers and developers will ensure with experience, opinion, and suggestions combined with the game porters and developers' knowledge and creativity if we do ever learn about such a auspicious occurrence worth celebration. Happy Bungie Day!

Normally I'd say you need to wait until Halo 3 comes out first, but then I realized that Fable II was skipped on the PC but Fable III is coming out for the PC. So it's possible, not likely though, that they may skip Halo 3 and move straight to Halo: Reach.

What's wrong with bumping this thread? Even if it is a waste of effort to petition for Halo 3 PC, why can't people discuss it none the less? There's nothing wrong with a healthy discussion.

Asking bungie to make h3pc will get you nowhere.
Go ask Microsoft, they own the halo franchise.

Also, the halo wars PC rumor is offically dead. That rumored "Project S" game posted on the GFWL forums a while ago is really another RTS game.
