Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Next week at CC Halo PC and XBOX will be only $15!

This is a great deal for anyone considering the game.

Hmm, If ther ewas a CC in my area I might go pick up another copy to replace the one I have. It's all scratched to hell. I'm considering looking for a mini-image so I can preserve what's left of my poor CD.

It's next week that it's on sale... not this week.

Thats around £7.50. For the Pc version that's mightily expensive, it normally costs £3 - £5 at the most in the bargain bins of "Games that should probably never have been made".

Aww, come on. Sure, Halo PC isn't perfect and Gearbox screwed it up royally but I think it is a good game overall.

Ya, plus they're screw ups don't matter anymore, DSL now is really common so little to no warping in I believe all servers, plus mainstream hardware can easily max it out with excellent fps such as fps in the 60s, however you still have to lead your shots, but that just shows your skills. :)

However, its kinda hard to imagine some stores such as circuit city making sales on halo PC, a game thats 3 years old plus only costs 20 dollars. You'd think they would focus they're sales on more current and more expensive games.

They probably do still make money off of it. It is good for a bargain bin title. Plus, they still have to get rid of thier stock somehow...

I think cybercafes should cash out on this deal. It would be a great game at a great price.

Although, there are much better first person shooters out there, such as Doom 3, and Half Life 2, Far Cry, etc.

The bungie.net community is the halo PC community that is renowned for being unbelieveably sucky.

the game is already 19.99 in most stores....

15 bucks is great price though...

Cybercafe's would be a good place for Halo, since a LAN would have no lag.

FarCry is an excellent game, even though it's been out for a while. Doom3 and HL2, I haven't tried, probably won't either.

TUI, why don't you just get a trial version of Alcohol and make an image file of Halo from what's left of your CD? It'd be better and more legal than getting an .img off BitComet or something (unless I'm wrong about the legal part). Or is that what you were saying in your first post?

And ya, $15 is okay. I got Halo for $19.99, though.

Doom 3 I've only play for not even an hour... hehe.. but it seemed good. Half-Life 2 though it's a REALLY good game, for me at least. What's better then picking up a dirty ol' toilet seat and launch it at someone with your Gravity Gun and killing them? Beating them down with the Crowbar when they try to do it to you. The only thing I didn't like about Half-Life 2 and 1 is how you can carry about 10 weapons all at once, I think it really messed up the MP games.

You sure that your Alcohol settings are right? Are you trying to make it into a .ccd, .iso, or .mdf file? Try playing around with the settings first until you get a performance log with no reading errors.
