Youre new to the forum, so hear this. Nobody knows about it. People have talked about it, debated it, flamed bungie for it, and worse, but nobody knows about it.

Remember, though that hpc took about 2 years (?) till it was released for pc. So be patient. Even if Bungie hasnt talked about it doesnt mean its not coming.

Don't listen to the console junkies either. It will almost definatly come to the pc. When is the question. Don't worry about the problems with H2 on xbox either.

no unfortunately Bungie, or anyone for that matter, has not said anything about EVEN the planning of a Halo 2 PC game, so there's no way they're already working on it, unless Microsoft's keeping this all a big secret, you never know what Bungie's next project is.....
but like me15ter said Halo PC came out only after 2 years, so i think we can kick back and have a cold one (i mean a coke) until around then.

oh lol now i get what you were asking, umm no i believe Halo for the PC was entirely finished by Gearbox before work on Halo 2 commenced, but i think Bungie might've been thinking about the storyline and etching out some initial ideas and concepts.

Yet you forget that last time Gearbox did the porting - Bungie hardly did anything to produce Halo PC. Aside from some new content creation, most of it was sent to a porter.

I'm sure you can expect the same here.

yeah, they anounced the work of H3 little after they relesed H2.

Don't listen to the console junkies either. It will almost definatly come to the pc. When is the question. Don't worry about the problems with H2 on xbox either.

there is a lot of word going around that bungie doesn’t plain on releasing a PC version of H2. but it is mostly the people with an Xbox spreading these words with sureness. most of the people in my school play Xbox now who use to play PC because everyone says it will never come out on anything else other than the PS3. Feh, I’m at least 80% sure H2 will come out for PC once there done maken money off of the Xbox, and if you look back halo was selling game of Xbox, with out it there would be far less people useing one now. i have yet to meat a person who has an Xbox but not a halo game. i'll be damned if i buy a console system just for 1 game, espeasaly when the next gen of that system is soon to come.

when H2 dose come to PC i shall laghf at them YOU WRONG, ME RIGHT!!! untill then it's off to Halo CE and await the coming of H2 PC like the rest of the people there.

Ittekimasu!

actually, H3 will come out for the Xbox 360 and they say the graphics are as good as they seem in the commercials.

my friend who plays H2 says there are a lot of graphics glitches in the game, so i think Gearbox should make the H2 graphics better or maybe even get a Halo 2 Expansion Pack for a pc. wacky idea but it could work.

Halo 3 is coming out? ever since H2 came out i have been hiding myself from it cause I dont want to know the story line till it comes out for PC. I still dont know it. Guess i missed the announcements about H3. Its hard to hold out this long, if H3 comes out i might crack and have to get H2 and 3. God it must come out for PC! please............

I thought that there were no released, commercials or videos, albeit even pictures, of Halo 3? Bungie hasn't even confirmed it yet, officially at least...

Yes, but the glitches are not the software. XBox simply cannot handle bump-mapping at a distance and can't really load it too well, so you get textures popping in and out of focus and detail.

In my opinion, they really should make Halo 2 for PC. Some of us can't get to an Xbox. So if they want Halo 2, they're screwed. Besides, I'd really like to see the new weapons and multiplayer maps. My friend said that they're making enough money off the Xbox version. But I thought: Wouldn't a PC version reel in even more $$$? Really, just think about it for a moment...

Honestly, it would be really ignorant for them NOT too come out with a pc version considering all the pc gamers out there that already play Halo 1. Also, I have done much research on the Xbox 360 and the other new generation consoles like the new playstation 3..... And from what I have gathered BTW, ( no offense to those hard core Xbox fans), the new PS3 has far outdone the new Xbox. Bungie would make so much more money off Halo 2 if they DID release it for the PC, hands down. Now as far as any agreements that were made about it NOT coming out for the PC before hand.... well.... who knows. Also peeps might want to take into consideration what th eprojected cost of the new consoles will be... $350-$500. Thats just nuts for a consolel. At least with a comp, you can use it for MANY other applications. At that cost, I say, screw the consoles and just get a pc with the SLI technology running 2 gpu's cuz i mean, C'mon , lets face it...... no console will ever out-do a PC , I don't care who says so. It's pure logic. And when I say "out-do" I don't just mean graphics, I mean EVERYTHING.

I agree,for them not to make a H2PC whould be a huge mistake,How popular Halo was with the computer gaming community they whould be missing out on a huge chance to make some cash,But personally my hope for H2PC is verry little to almost none sence Bungie has seemed to forget about the HPC community anyway.
