Subject: A new ray of hope for GFWL? H2V?

As the title suggests and this article from IGN.com. M$ seems to be wanting to get back into the PC gaming world again after leaving us to die. Hopefully they'll support us because honestly it's time they gave it to us. Honestly though I doubt they will =[

Its a possibility but, why get your hopes up when youre probably going to get disappointed?

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.

Consider Microsoft's MO. It'll probably be a pathetic attempt to bring something innovative to PC gaming, charge for it, then watch it fail hard when they realize that their "brilliant" idea has already existed on the PC for years.

But I want Halo Reach for PC ='(
Xbox 360 sucks, and I don't like jtags or dev360s just to mod.

I bet they'll try and substitute Halo on PC with another dumb IP.

As for Halo 2 Vista, if there is no Major overhaul to the game's
---------
netcode
map creation tool - all tags that exist in campaign and MP for use to create Custom campaign or multiplayer maps.
online co-op
Dedicated servers
modding support
graphics
CPU multi-core/threading
Optimize for lower end PCs
Mouse fixed
FPS over 60 fix
unlimited custom maps


then Microsoft can go f*** themselves in hopes to regain PC gamers trust.

Like I said before I doubt they will go back and fix H2V =[ but here's to really hoping they do. I'm honestly confused on the reason why players bodies have like seizures when the warthog is moving, it didn't happen on the console and since it was a port what the hell went wrong lol. Looks like the game has an issue with syncing players positions next to each other that are moving faster than walking speed.

This problem existed in Halo 2 Xbox, HiredGun were lazy to fix Bungie's mistakes which was caused by Microsoft's rushed schedule.

I played this on the xbox and it was never that bad lol unless the game itself was lagging or hacked.

Freedom has two parts: potential and resolution; as metaphors have two parts : form and interpretation; of course, the two are intertwined. Metaphor lines the road to freedom, as symbols and words are the bricks and mortar of meaning. Freedom being the briocoleus, the mason.

GFWL maybe, we'll at least see some real effort for 1st party content on PC, however there is really no hope of H2V getting any sort of revision, maybe a port to windows 7, or even Halo 3 some day, but i really doubt it.

I hate dial up

If they want to support PC gaming, they'll get rid of Games for Windows Live. If anything its hurting PC gaming.

Plus, Fable 3 seems to be their only game coming to the PC in the near future, so yeah I'm calling it a bunch of bull.

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

- Dawes, A little bit of everything

Maybe instead of Halo 2 Vista, we'll be seeing Halo 2 7...

Haha well if they just patched the game they'd be fine... well that and gave us better editing options. Anyway H2V works on 7.. most of the time.
