Aside from Halo PC not supporting FSAA, I'm not sure how you could claim the Xbox version has superior graphics, not when you can play PC at far higher resolutions than what any reasonably-priced TV supports. In addition, multiplayer on Xbox further reduces graphical quality by dividing screen realestate into quarters. I'd be interested to hear other opinions on this, as I've heard talk of this repeatedly.
I play PC because of the online multiplayer aspect, and because I don't own an Xbox. I got hooked on Halo by playing on a friend's Xbox. It took some getting used to coming from the console, but I've never looked back. :) IMO the mouse/keyboard combo is unbeatable for responsiveness and intuitive movement.
In fact, if I knew that a Halo 2 for PC were coming out at the same time as Xbox Halo 2, I'd not bother buying an entire Xbox setup just for two games, but as things stand, I'll probably shell out the cash for the console version because I can't stand to wait (shhhhhh, don't tell MS this, damnit). ;) Of course, I still want a PC version, because I like playing games on the PC much better when there's nobody else around to play with me on the console.
