Should this be done? Halo 2 is being released on PC with Vista's release later this year or early 2007. Good or bad?

When enough people have fantasticly amazing computers for the market to be profitable, I'm sure it will be considered. Until then I'd say no.

-Its a MG42!
-My favorite color is bubble shield

Not alot of people would pay for a new computer and upgrades when they could easyily spend 300-400 dollars for a xbox 360

Actually, it wouldn't effect the development of a next game at all. Bungie doesn't do the conversions, other companys do. Gearbox did halo pc, and i think we are still waiting to hear who is doing halo 2 pc.

To be honest with the launch of Halo 3 reasonably close, is it even worth Halo 2 on PC? If you have a decent PC you must be able to afford an original Xbox now surely.

Some people just like to have to stay loyal to their PC. After all, it tends to be the better platform to build games. Look at Half-Life 2, Counter-Strike, Battlefield 2, World of Warcraft, etc. So many stinking awesome games to hit the PC. I'd say the ratio of excellent games on PC to excellent games on Consoles is 3:1.

Not to knock consoles, I do think they're getting better and better and soon there may not be much of a difference. It's just too bad console adaptations of games like Battlefield 2: Modern Combat just never live up to the awesomeness of the orginal (on PC).

Halo 3 could look awesome on PC though by the time they got around to it. And if this were the final game of anything Halo-related, I'd say give em a green light and let the spark ignite one last time.

Didnt Gates say something at E3 about every game that is made for the 360 in the near future will be compatable with the Windows Vista? Then everybody can play from console to PC, PC to PC, and Console to console. So it is possible that it could be ran on the windows vista.

Just wait a year or two after it comes out on the 360, then just as its been with Halo 1 and 2, it'll probably be announced.
