Subject: Thinking about picking up Halo 2 PC...

Well I hated Halo 3 MP, but I could deal with it, Reach just blows... I just want to relive my Halo 2 MP experience.

I had a couple questions though, I know most of these are problems/glitches but I still want to play the game like I used to.

1) Is there still superbouncing in the PC version?
2) Are there button combos? If I hooked up a 360 controller to my pc, could I bxr, rryyrr?
3) Is the gameplay even remotely the same? I heard it sucks on PC compared to Xbox.

1) No there isnt so far as i know, Ive tryed many times and havent been able to do so.

2) As soon as you plug in you're controller it becomes default Halo 2 buttoms and yes quad shot and bxr does work.

3)Its alot more clean but alot of games are laggy and not taken seriously, Thats being said if you crank you're graphics up max like i do you will appriciate the PC Version alot more.

And remember its only 10 Pound brand new, You wont be wasting money.

Oh hell, at that price I'll just try it out. XD

I'll miss superbouncing for giggles, but oh well.

Ehh I bought it, its fun, most people seem really bad on there. The only problems I have are...

1) There is like no one on.
2) There are no fun servers to play on... its all modded servers/sword severs/sniper servers/swat servers... not really much else :(
3) The lag is massive

Regardless, the nostalgia factor makes it with worth the 20 dollars.

ARBITER, I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S NOT BUTTER!!! WORT WORT WORT.

The graphics on max rock, you don't have to worry about scratching the disk after installing, it's cheap, 20 bucks, and you'll have it for life. What more can you ask for? I bought the 360 controller to go with it, and I love it. No weird things on the screen like with the 360, nothing's wrong with it at all. It's awesome.
