Halo: Combat Evolved on PC. Halo 2 equally on both systems. There are ups and downs on both with Halo 2.

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

Halo 1: PC!

Halo 2: I can't decided, it sucked on both systems.

PC on both systems.

Halo CE is just light years beyond the oXbox version.

Halo 2, whilst having lots of porting related problems on PC, still has two things in its favour:
1. Upgraded textures + resolution, making it look leagues better; and
2. KBAM - the undeniable king of input devices for FPS... you're not really playing an FPS if you're using anything else.

Having said that, the considerable matchmaking and ranking services that Halo2 had on the xbox makes that a completely reasonable choice as well if you're heavily into online play...

Just wondering:

I see you posting on these forums a lot. But you always say that it all sucks....accept Halo 1? So your only personal connection with Bungie is Halo:CE?

BUNGIE AND MICROSOFT FAILS HALO 2 VISTA.

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

Halo 1 was good on both.

Halo 2 was good on Xbox for modding.

Halo 2 on PC was an abomination.

H1 PC was better than the Xbox version.

H2 Vista was sorely lacking. I recently bought it for the achievements, but I don't see myself playing it after I've gotten them. I wasn't a fan of H2 to begin with; the gameplay is just too dumbed-down from CE.

Yeah...i do farm credits....but at least i have a job!

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.

I think you missed a word in his post. Re-read it.

I liked Halo 1 on the PC more than on the Xbox (360). It had more weapons, maps and functions.

However, Halo 2 had some errors with the support for PC. So, I liked it more on Xbox (360).

  • 03.04.2011 2:46 PM PDT

Wow, i'm surprised people like it on PC more. of course I think Halo 2 was better in Xbox, but Halo 1 was better on PC because it was great for modding.

LOLOLOLOL IMA BUNGEE BETA TESTOR LOLOLOLOL.

Halo 1 on PC, but Halo 2 on Xbox. H2PC was a crappy expendable port in Microsoft's eyes, and thats what it is.

Are we talking gameplay or features? Gameplay wise, the Xbox ones blew PC out of the water, but feature wise PC is the obvious winner.

I sure hope you're talking about H2 alone when you posted that, because Halo PC beat its Xbox counterpart in every single way, especially gameplay.

new maps, new weapons. Yep, I can see how the xbox really beat out the PC for gameplay on Halo 1.

The shot leading is ridiculously stupid. If you've ever played a LAN match (or competetive splitscreen) you'll know how sexy the game plays. That fast paced action gets lost in the PC version.

Xbox version has even worse netcode.

LAN on the PC performs just as well as LAN on the console. You're complaining about additional features that the console version didn't have at all. That is ridiculously stupid.

Halo 1 was better on PC in ever regard.

Halo 2 wasn't very good in the first place... I only ever played it to see how Bungie decided to continue the Campaign.

As many features as Custom Edition gives you, you can't beat the glorious, non-lagginess of a LAN party. 3v3 or 4v4, it's all amazing. The xbox version will always be the best to me.

You guys are talking is if LAN on the PC version doesn't exist, let alone beat the crap out of LAN on console. What are you people smoking?

Hey kid, try playing in a PC lan party. Most lan parties are for the PC, not the n00b box. Stop smoking that weed, it's bad for you.

  • 03.09.2011 2:58 PM PDT

Halo CE forever!

When it comes to LAN parties and real competitions overall, the Xbox version of Halo: CE was actually more popular.
