Yeah i say why not xbox is only $150 dollars know. And the live is only $50 a year. Halo2 is only $40 at walmart. add that all up its only 250bucks. Some video cards cost more then that which is insane.

Wow mittens, best graphics, XBOX! Your wrong their mate, you are seriously. Halo is better on the PC by far, and TV's are not that good for games as a moniter.

I wouldn't say vector is wrong - he made a point that the rest of you missed, and he made it very well. I won't buy an xbox because I can't afford it, I already have a gamecube, I'd like to upgrade my computer anyway, and my wife wouldn't let me buy one. Nothing personal against M$ or Bungie - they're just trying to make a living and have a life.

Yeah i know that when you get these PC with aweome gear, you would get a good result out of the games. Im sorry but when are Bungie going to tell us about Halo 2 on PC, im never gunna buy an xbox, why cant they just say No, i mean come on if it isn't, why wont they just tell us when they are leaving us nearly falling off the edge of our seats when they can just simply say "no"? Because Halo 2 is coming on PC. I mean come on people, use you common sense, it's coming out on PC. Well thats my opinion. IT'S frigin business.

But aM Inspire, this isn't Jerry Springer forum. lol had to be done.

Ahhh...healthy hatred of the Xbox. You could only find this in a PC forum:

HE!! NO! WE WON'T GO! HE!! NO! WE WON'T GO!

Now lets all sing Kum by yah while Spartan 012 burns an effigee of Bill Gates. Mwahahahahahahaha!

Just kidding. Put the torches down. No! Put it down!

No. I won’t buy an Xbox. I won’t buy an Xbox 360 either. I bought my last console a long time ago; when I dished out the green for this monster PC, it was under the impression that any game worth having would find its way here, because more people own computers than any other “gaming system”. I’ll upgrade this little bugger till the day I die, probably, but I won’t waste money on a console anymore. I’m an adult. I’m too old for that toy.

If Bungie and Microsoft decide not to release Halo 2 for PC, they’ll just have to live without my money. Any of my money.

Linux FOREVER! WOOT!

I'm huge into video games. Playstation, Xbox, gamecube... But PC is by far the best. I might end up buying an Xbox 360 or a Playstation 3. But any game that comes out for a console 99% of the time comes out for PC. PC is better because the graphics are sharper, the controls and mouse are easier than having to use a controller, and online is allways so much better. It's also, for some reason, cheaper for PC. So unless the game is only for consoles or it'll take a long time to come out for PC, I don't buy it for the consoles. But the PC can never really have more than two people playing it at once, so console can be better, because up to eight players can play at once. But basically, theres not much point in buying a console, because it'll die in few years and PC's are allways upgradeable.

Makes no sense to buy a $150 xbox for one game. And don't bother saying "well are other good games on Xbox" because there isn't any except Chronicles of Riddick and that is even on PC.

that's why they won't give us an answer. they're waiting to see how many people will buy an xbox and cop out for XBL before they drop it on PC as its "final resting ground". yeah, it'll probably take two years for them to get around to porting H2 for PC, but if we make enough noise, maybe they'll hear the whisper from their high rise corner office and decide to look into it sooner!

Ah, to be the little guy again. how I've missed this...

they're working on H3 - then they'll do the port themselves. Be patient. Consoles are expected to have a life longer than 3 years.... (I can't think of one that did.)

What's the point? They'll have Xbox 360 by the end of the year.

I'm a hardcore PC gamer who did buy an xbox for Halo 1 (more specifically for the coop posibilities that weren't offered in the PC version). While I rarely critique Bungie on their own forums, Halo 2 is not a good enough game to warrant purchasing an xbox to play it. I felt Halo 1, with the great sci-fi story and coop ability, was good enough to warrant the purchase of an xbox. However, Halo 2 is inferior to Halo 1 when it comes to the single player and cooperative experience and story.

If you didn't buy an xbox for Halo 1, don't buy one for Halo 2. While console gamers rave about live, it is largely because the idea of online gaming with large groups of people is something relatively new to them. (They are some of the same people who think Goldeneye is the best FPS game ever.) They lack the experience of playing online FPS games for years that PC gamers have. Although this is just my opinion, I feel that I am able to view both sides of the argument with a bit of clarity. (Bungie already has my money for every Bungie game from Pathways into Darkness to Halo 2, including Halo PC, so I think that gives me the right to judge a bit if I feel it is necessary). Halo 1 had a better first person story that Halo 2 and many PC FPS games have a similar, if not better, online multiplayer experience. If you still plan to go out and buy an xbox for Halo 2, don't let me stop you, but I am fairly certain you will be disapointed with at least the single player story. While multiplayer Halo 2 is a unique experience, it is still an online FPS which requires that you spend extra money on top of the cost of the xbox and copy of Halo 2 in order to use Live.
