I know this has been asked a millino times on this forum, but with the utter falure of Reach, I think its time for Halo 3 to spread to PC to stimulate the game some more. I mean tons of people still play Halo 2 PC, Halo 3 PC would be a complete success. I think we deserve an update on this.

Believe it or not there is more piracy on Xbox 360 then there is on PC. I think there is a lot of money top be made off this.

I have silver because I do not want to spend more than $200 to play games on a Television, then spend more for a decent TV when I can play games on a Great computer with HD Graphics. And it would be free. If it was my choice between an Xbox or a brand new Gaming PC, I would always choose a PC. Spending more for memberships is just overrated.

Don't even get me started.

PC games don't bring in much ca$h so Mircosoft won't be putting any Halo games on the PC for a long time.


A new Halo game on the PC could potentially bring in more "ca$h" than any other PC game on the market, albeit World of Warcraft. If what you said was true, no PC games would be made at all. Let's not forget that it wouldn't cost much for development either, since the game has already been made. Microsoft would only have to port it to the PC.

I hope that Halo 3 comes out for PC, although many years have passed since his release for Xbox360. I bought Halo 1 and Halo 2 PC and I wouldn't hesitate to buy it too.

My Youtube - Halo 2 Online Co-op
BUNGIE AND MICROSOFT FAILS HALO 2 VISTA.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

Hmm your sliver.

I take it that you don't have the ca$h for xbl so you want it on the pc.

And what benefits does a Gold subscription give, that a PC game can't give?

Or better yet, can Xbox Live Gold subscription outweigh the services you get on Steam?

This.

OT - It's probably too late for Halo 3. Unless it's everything that H2V wasn't with some substantial upgrade's and impressive modding tools compared to Halo CE then there is no point, it would fail...hard.

If it was not Halo 2 on Vista which really was a massive letdown...

No, its too late now. I would have said yes before it was released though.

Microsoft needs to take a chapter in Valves book in how to sell games properly, see how successful Valve is with source engine games.

Half Life is a successful IP, still alive and still sells, and you get more by downloading free separate game mods and also Garry's Mod puts all game resources into proper sandbox use.

Halo 1 Custom Edition was very good for it's time.

Halo 2 Vista was Microsoft's 2nd failure at a Halo 2 title, and a failure of a 2nd Halo on PC title.

Halo 3 PC should think about catering to custom map makers and support the necessities that a PC game requires. :D

People who are always stuck on consoles, will not bother understanding how PC can make a game better.

If they do that, then they have proven what a dumb company they are.

If we look at Valve games, we see how they have catered to a number of Windows OSes, where as Halo 2 Vista will only work on Vista or over.
Pretty stupid from a business perspective.
