Well all the Marathon games are free so its time Halo 1 should become free for the PC. I doubt Bungie is getting serious bank from Halo 1 anymore. And more people will play and think "wow this game owns" and maybe buy the others.

Stupid parents let their stupid children play games that are rated M when they should be playing Big Birds Spelling Adventures

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Isn't that illegal? ;)

And last I knew, there were over 100,000 different CD-keys used in a month. That doesn't sound like a dead game to me.

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

We're getting there...give it 10 more years, then Bungie (or Gearbox) will let us have it for free.

Also, 'piracy' for HPC is pretty big. A friend of mine noticed around 50 people logging into one of his servers with the same copy of Halo, all within a month or so. :O

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

Don't bother caring about Bungie. They stopped caring about us a long time ago.

The bungie.net community is the halo PC community that is renowned for being unbelieveably sucky.

Pretty sure Microsoft owns the rights to all the Halo 1 versions, not Gearbox, Bungie, etc.

Microsoft isn't going to make this game free. The game still sells very well despite being perhaps the # 1 pirated PC game.

You mean M$. That is probably a major reason why Halo: CE isn't going to be free for a looong time or maybe ever.

Something smells fishy...

Halo CE is free.

If you paid for it you got ripped off.

I can't think of another 6 year old game that by itself still commands shelf space in retailers at $20.

Quoted 4 truth

Your both complete idiots. -.- He meant Halo 1 not Halo CE
And CE is not free either. You have to have Halo 1 to get CE.

EDIT: Back on topic, I don't think Halo PC should be free. Not yet. And besides, just buy the damn game, it's got great replay value. It's also cheap.

This is actually the stupidest thing ever posted on B.net:

Why does everyone hate Halo 2? Maybe its because its the worst game ever next to mario.

Wow.

If you cannot spend...what?...10 bucks? If you cannot spend 10 bucks on Halo PC then you my friend do not appreciate Halo. Just buy the fkn game! JUST BUY THE FKN GAME! It is worth so much more then the little price you can get it now. So stop -blam!-ing and pick up a disc.

This is an old account iDarkWint3r is my new Bungie.net user.

I certainly agree in my certain standpoint.Because I persuaded others to buy H2v for $33.00 it's a cheap game.And you know why there isn't a decent population is because of alot of freebies.
Freebies - Downloading Exclusive content and games for free.If you can't even afford buying H2v or HPC I got to hand it to you,You don't deserve a damn computer.

Well there are specific certain kids play Halo 3 XBL and they are 9? or 12?So mostly the concept is the price.

The reasons for pirating HPC are the same as every other game; people are too lazy to find a copy legit, or they don't feel like spending $10 for such an old game. Not everyone is as fanatical about Halo 1 as we are.

Also, some people might try downloading copies illegally to have an extra CD key, so they can use aimbots/trashtalk/grief servers without fear or repercussions. If their CD key gets banned, they can always use their other copy to play.

Well there are specific kinds of kids that play Halo 2 PC and they are 13? Or 14? So mostly the concept is douche-bagery. And this may come as a shock to someone as young as yourself, but some people have jobs to make money and may have other things to pay for then video games for a computer. Please. Shut-up. For your own good.

Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphors have two parts : form and interpretation; of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom being the briocoleus, the mason.

Hell no, its only like 10-20 dollars, just go buy it, and stop making halo trial montages.
