Money, Money, Money, It's Loads of Money

A while back, urk said we should hold on to our CD-Keys for something in Reach. Has anybody said anything about this since then?

When he was younger, he was the one who always had the jokes and riddles that would keep the spirits of the Spartans high. Over the years however, his lifetime of combat had hardened him, as it had all of the Spartans. Within Will, John thought, something special had been lost.

I think it's most likely gonna be a Mark V Helmet Avatar Award, or something exclusive in Halo: Reach. I'm thinkin' the Mark V Helmet. So far we haven't seen anything of the Mark V Helmet from Bungie, but we did see it on RvB on Bungie Day, so that makes me think it will be exclusive.

So if your like me and can't stand consoles, it's no good. Why would they give a reward in a console game for a key from a PC game?

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

Because their also rewarding h2x players. And halo CE didn't have online on the Xbox.

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.

I think... it's a plan to both make up for 2 broken PC Halo ports, while simultaneously trying to con PC gamers into buying Halo: Reach.

Something smells fishy...

"Yes, that was me in the podcast, and in fact we were discussing details at the office today. We should have the final feature ready for use in about a month.

We're dealing with the keygen problem as best we can. For starters, I pulled a list of keys that had actually been used as of a month or two ago, and we'll probably validate against that list. So people won;t be able to just get the keygen now and claim the... reward. (i.e., people who didn't even bother to pirate the game :-) It also means that buying one of the few remaining copies at retail won't help you anymore.

So yeah, we're on it. Start spreading the word on other sites that Halo PC users should check here a couple weeks before Reach launches for details on what to do with the key."


Let me get this straight.

So there is some kind of reward that will be available at some point for people who've been playing Halo Combat Evolved PC for a while. Is that really going to happen?

Signs point to 'yes'. ;)

Also a clarification on the wording since there's a good amount of confusion in that thread. He's worded it as to suggest that any and every key that's been recorded by GameSpy as having been used online prior to a couple of months ago will be eligible for the reward.

If that be the case, I'm happy again.

It wasn't because it was "worthless" to bungie, it was because Halo 2 PC was not ported by bungie!

Gearbox ported Halo PC, so I fail understand the logic in this.

But Bungie actually had a hand in producing Halo PC, including Custom Edition, newer weapons, and newer maps. Halo 2, on the other hand, was largely solely produced by the porting team.

In the Halo 2 Vista FAQ, Bungie helped during H2V's development process.
Posted by: Sketch
Who's working on Halo 2 for Windows Vista? How does this game relate to Halo 3?

The hard work of bringing Halo 2 to Windows Vista is being done by a team within Microsoft Game Studios, codenamed Hired Gun. Bungie is helping Hired Gun with design decisions and quality assurance. The teams for H2V and Halo 3 are completely separate.
http://www.bungie.net/News/content.aspx?type=topnews&link =halo2vistafaqupdate

Bungie knew about Halo 2 Vista, but they are still ignoring it.
So what gives?

Instead of ignorant comments, I want to hear something from Bungie itself.

"Halo 2 for PC" is NOT included since Bungie wasn't involved in that port.


Straight from the thread in the septagon. Is that good enough?
