1. Can all people arguing about macs and PCs stop? I have strong opinions about which is better, but its not the place for it.
2. There is little technical need why Halo2 has to be for Vista other than DX10, which sounds a bit suspect to me. As I have said in another post, Id like to see the good technical reasons why its not being made for the most popular, most stable version of windows out there.
3. Why do I have to upgrade my perfectly good and stable OS to play a new game?
4. There is little reason for most people to change to Vista anyways when XP seems to be cutting it for most.
5. Even making 2 versions, 1 for Vista one for XP will still reap a profit. I think its going to be obvious to everyone that if the 2 versions were released, then the XP one would bring in the most.
6. I as well as others I know, will not be playing (and therefore not buying) halo2 for PC as its Vista only. Dispite really wanting to continue the campain from halo1.
7. The reason given in the FAQs are awful and vauge. And insulting to anyone with intelligence.
From the front page hype about windows Vista:
* It seamlessly connects you to information, people, and devices you care most about, to help you get the most out of life and explore new possibilities.
Are they serious?
* It enables a new level of confidence in the security and reliability of your PC and in your ability to get the most out of it.
Hopefully its going to be more secure, if so, then the first and only valid point.
* It introduces clear ways to find, organize and use your information to focus on what matters to you, whether it's music, the Web or e-mail.
Err, I can find all my music easy enough, same as everything else.
Please bungie, dont ram this marketing stuff down our throats, give us some credit, you know some of us are smarter than that.
