Halo PC is by far a million times better than Halo 2. There is no comparision between them.

yah Halo on the PC is the best but compared to the second its nothing. They have better weapons and better graphics as well. halo 1 is too short but depending on the difficulty mode a person plays it becomes challanging.

too short? I've played it through on easy to see how fast I could beat it - I'd just run through swarms of covenant & flood - no fun at all - just business - it took me 3.5 hours. I don't think that's too bad...

and, are you going to play against 50 thousand people at once? no, mind you. 5 thousand is enough to keep many people entertained.

what I meant by the fact that there are that many people online in halo 2 shows what the publics opinion on the matter is. If halo pc is truely better why is it not more popular. I played on it for around five months so its not liek i haven't played it. sniping was almost out of the question because of lag and so were many other key elements of the game such as hitting and shotgun

Yes especially with the N-Vidia cards. lol. although my Alienware has 2 and I think that PC has more potential than H2, but who knows?

SLi does not cost 7 grand... dammit people - where the frick do you shop? I can get dual BFG GeForce 6800 Ultra OCs and a an Asus A8N SLi mobo for right at $1,000 - and that's top of the line.

But..... if it's an alienware comp (*cough* ripoff *cough*) you probably did pay close to $7000 for it....

and BTW - lag isn't something you can control, but it is something you can adapt to and overcome - if you're good.

lag is something that you personally cant control but how the system is built controls it. I mean that I am using the same internet connection for both live and pc and for some reason it pretty much never lags on live. I guess that you could adapt to shoot a little in front of them as they run but you shouldn't have to do that. And no I don't suck. I don't know why people feel they have to insult me when I am not trying to insult anyone. Maybe it has changed since the last time I was on like 7 months ago but i was just so frustrated with the lag that I gave it up. One thing I definitley miss in halo 2 is the fuel rod. that gun was sweet
oh and another thing, you have a point about xboxs being much cheaper then pcs but I would veiw that as an advantage. ok they won't ever have as good of graphics as new computer games but I guess I'm just not that hard core of a gamer to want to spend 1000 dollars on a video card

Halo PC is by far better than the xbox version, 5 more maps, 2 more guns ( flame thrower and feul rod gun) are all in the PC version. By the way Halo 2 is out for PC this year. F u xbox players!

we don't have to deal with standbyers and cheaters either, do we? We have modders, but the mods only work if you're host, so BLEH

You have a point there.I really cant tell.Both are great but i would go for Halo 2 cuz of all the laggy servers you ll find in Halo for PC.I mean look at the difference in the graphics.What the hell is wrong with you people.You know Halo 2 is better.I mean its a sequal why wouldnt it?

thank you, finally someone who isn't crazy, oh and another thing more weapons and maps do not equal better. but if you think about it every different duel wielding combo is like a different weapon because it creates a different balance so there are actually more weapons. I think that duel wielding and boarding add great possibilities not avalible in h1. NOt to meantion that because in optimatch it automaticly picks the best server and has ways off making it so that there isn't this huge server advantage like in hpc

Halo 1 is more fun than Halo 2, I have Halo 1 on Pc and xbox, and me and my brother both have our own xbox live accounts and play Halo 2.

Halo 1 is more fun. I'm not saying halo 2 is a bad game, Halo 2 is a damn good game!, I just prefer halo 1 because its the most FUN.

Obviously never played Halo CE. The only reason why H2 might be better is that it is newer, with a newer engine. Optimatch isn't the way I like it, I prefer to pick the servers I like and go to them. Lag is not a huge issue. The net code is bad but nothing that can't be overcome, I do it all the time. Sniping is very easy to do once you know how.

hmmm.....if by noob you mean that I am not a uber nerd like you that would pay thousands of dollars and devote your life to games, then yes I am glad of that but if you think that for some reason you think you know me and that I suck at the game because I personally like halo 2 better i don't see where your coming from. I actuallly am very good at the game but i have better things to do then try to convince people I don't know and never will of this. I agree that halo pc was a great game and had some great weapons and levels. i also agree that there are certain aspects of halo 1 that will always be more fun then those of h2 but all in all I like h2 live better because I was having major problems with lag in pc. i just thought I would come over to the pc forums and talk to some people about which is better but i now see that that is like going to south central LA in a triple k outfit. I think that we can all agree at least that halo in general rocks. I bid you all good day

Stabber...Dual wielding is overrated. A battle rifle beats smg+magnum or smg+p rifle any day at any range. I've rocked two or more people at close range with that gun who were dual wielding. IMO it's better to have the ability to toss a nade and fire, especially now since the update made grenades stronger (being close to a plasma grenade now kills you...crazy)

However, it is true that it will add variety. True, optimatch does pick the fastest conenction for the server, but the server standbys and such still suck. And anyway, in H1 and H2 the servers both have 0 ping, so there is still server advantage. Can't ever really escape that unless you play on a dedicated server.

I agree, I usually do use only one weapon. grenades are great. i'm just saying that it adds more variety. I thought that bungie said they did something so that the server advantage is not that great?

oh I guess you said the same thing about variety
