Not me.... I am a PC player, I plan to start playing on the 360 around the time PS3 will be released, since they will lower the 360's prices.... But untill then, I post in the Maw, and play in the Maw...no others....

Yes the Maw is slow during the day. It picksup at night when the regulars get out of school/work and on the weekends. This isn't a bad thing, it makes it easier to follow posts.

If you want a more active forum to talk in go to the Flood. They talk about everything and anything not related to Halo. Careful if you stay too long you will become on of the Flood!

I agree with you guys on Consoles. I don't wanna buy anything that cost $600, and only plays video games. So I'm gunna wait till next X-mas to get a 360, The PS3 and the Wii (That name really irks me) will drive down the 360's prices. The key to the console race is not to release ur next gen console first, since it gives Sony and Nintendo time to make thiers better.

What? Play a game? FOR FUN???
This concept of fun confuses and infuriates me!

Thats why I don't call it the Wii.
Its the Revolution in my mind, and thats the name that stuck with me, and the name that stays with me. Besides, some of the jokes that have been made over that name...
"Hey, want to come to my room and play with my Wii?"
Yeah.
Besides, this is basicly a test to see who is truly a loyal fan of The Maw. If you decide to ditch PC and run to the H3 forum, you are a disgrace to PC users. You shame us.

Yes but the 360 will have been out for a year by the time those two come out with their's. Thats a sigificant amount of time to pickup new customer who want something other then a PS2 or Nintendo. The "experts" are saying that this time will allow X-box to increase it's current market share about 20% to closer to %50 and Sony will lose that amount. I think the $500-600 price tag will do that by itself.

Heh, ya, that's kind of why I got out of playing consoles because they don't do much except play just games. However, I hope someone will Linux hack the 360 so that it can do more than just play 360 games.

I like the maw, Halo 3 and 2 boards have to many kids on them for one. They also move to fast, dumb ass's post and repost the same threads over and over so nothing ever gets done. Plus the average user here seem a hell of a lot smarter and mature, so its more fun and intresting to have a conversation here.

There are more people in this forum than you think, but generaly in Bungie there are a load of XBOX fanboys.

i like the easygoing, laid back, slow pace of the maw forum. better than the speed of the h3 forum, where you start a thread, get out of your chair to grab a drink, and when you refresh the page, your thread is already 3 pages down.

yeah, i perfer the syrpy, molasses slowness of the maw. where we take our time. to do things right.

Heh I already did. Why do you think that bananas are really cool to boomerang across a lunch room when no one is looking?

It's not as slow as well syrup, its like ok, not to slow that it takes like 10 minutes for someone to post in the thread and not to fast so that in a minute your thread will be gone from the front page, like the three bears, its just right. Lol.

amen brother tango

anyways, usually the ppl wit h1pc r going to b much more tech savy than some random xbox nerd, they double post, bump threads, and do horrbile things punishable by death on the maw, and in being a lil more understanding of how internet forums work, we do them right, debate effectively, and only the 'newer ppl' bump threads and double post, after the first flaming they usually dont do it again


ImSpartacus your half right, but still man they're not as bad you say they are, they like us who speak nicly, act like a community, post good posts, its just that sometimes they're are these annoying people who are childish.
