That will never happen.
Microsoft has decided to permanently keep "Halo" exclusively on their xbox gaming platform.
permanently? really? yes, Microsoft wants to keep Halo exclusive to Xbox, while they make a "different IP" for PC.

Microsoft said:
I think the biggest effort for us is really bringing exclusive IP to the PC itself.
...
I think the one piece that was missing was a big significant commitment from Microsoft Game Studios to push the service the same way Halo pushed the service on the console...that's been the missing element and that's what we're doing now.That means, they are not going to produce Halo for PC, but a different IP, nice going Microsuck.
Everyone say goodbye to Halo on PC, and be done with this thread.
Only issue, they also said they are doing console ports.
Console ports will remain a part of the PC strategy for Microsoft, but it wants to ensure that PC gamers get what they are looking for. Unangst explained the situation by pointing to the case of Fable 3. "I think with Fable 3 and our return to PC gaming, having them build a great game on the console and then bringing it over to the PC, but doing it in a way that is right for the PC. We don't want to just do console ports. We want to do something the PC users are going to like in genres they are going to like."
There could always be a reach PC port.
