Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

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.

The quote train is so fun, but for some reason it rubs the "ninjas" the wrong way.

Btw, H2v is perhaps the worst disaster in PC gaming history. Good job Bungie.

The 2 things that tempted me about Halo 2V is that it was a GFWL and it came wiht extra maps. But as soon as i saw Halo 1 came with extra maps then i took it without a second look. $20AUD (Which is like $10USD)

O.o just a Question...Do you play Halo 1 on Legendary???

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

Dude, it's not Bungie's fault that people cheat, nobody said that. People always cheat. But Bungie hasn't put any pressure on Microsoft/Hired Gun to get it under control. They talked a good game while the game was in development, and then haven't supported us one bit. It's their name on the box, the buck stops with them. All anyone asked for was to be treated fairly, similar to H2 players on Xbox.

Make it run worse. I had to downgrade as my fps dropped in most games when i upgraded.

Huh. Really? I only saw an FPS drop in Assassin's Creed. All my other games are running much better on Win7.

Maybe it's because I moved from 32-bit to 64-bit. I dunno. I can't not vouch for Win7, though. Great OS.

Bungie = sick mofos. I can't believe how exploitable their crap is. I also can't stomach how ruthless and sadistic Halo 2 players are. It's disgusting. I hope they all rot in hell. I'm throwing H2V in the garbage. Totally worthless trash made for cowardly internet bullies.

Err what? I have no clue what you mean by anything you just said. In fact, almost any group of players you play with on PC is just a bunch of hormonal Teenage people. And hoping condemnation on someone itself is sadistic. Please go learn how to control your anger before it results IRL violence.

Possibly. I had to do a clean install to move from 32-bit to 64-bit.

My girlfriend's about to upgrade, cause clean installing sucks. I'll see if anything slows down for her.

want to know a better joke.
The game is so horribly coded, that the major flaw, is the text/Unicode that appears on screen, can cause major game lag.

Examples of this flaw
1. The Game Browser, there is so much text, that it lags the game's FPS.

2. Join lag
When a person joins, the text comes up, "* has joined"
this freezes people's games and makes their connection to temporarily become unstable to the host.

3. Unrenderable chars/crashing text.

4. Mass text spamming (identical to the browser).

This game has been the biggest joke in the whole world, to think that any text that's used is a weakness.

Hes right about that one. That doesnt happen on xbox and also, also, you can crash the game by typing certian text (rainman116 made videos of him crashing mm by doing that.)

And failing to render text right = EPIC FAIL!

The game is a horrible port. We know it, Bungie knows it, Microsoft knows it.

They did such a bang up job that Hired Gun ceased to exist. Since these guys were an internal M$ team, it goes to show how bad they do PC games. And when it became clear that the game had serious flaws, they just walked away and kept their mouths shut.

For all it's flaws, Halo PC is to this day a much better port job. But to be fair to Hired Gun, I think a lot of the problems that you guys are talking about stem from the awful GFWL interface.

So basically the game fails on so many fronts that it's just a total disaster. I can't think of one area where the game excels. Graphics options, nope. Mouse controls- terrible. Controller aimbot- thanks. Horrible online problems such as cheating, crashes, lag when people enter the game (this didn't happen when the game launched), and the whole thing wrapped in the GFWL interface. Wow. Fail. I want my money back please.
