Subject: Why don't you play Halo 1/2 on the computer?

I mean some of you guys are always complaining about Reach and wishing you could play Halo 2 again, so why not just buy it for the computer? The computer version of both halo 1 and 2 have online multiplayer still active to this very day, which I take part in myself from time to time.

Heck, you don't even need an amazing graphics card, so what is there to lose? Go play Halo 2 and stop ranting about Reach you crazy sons of...

Not sure what this has to do with Reach.

Halo 2 > Halo 3 > Halo 3 ODST > Halo Reach > Halo CE

Based on campaigns.

Nope. SouthPole isn't a person. He's the avatar of the force of tryhards everywhere. He stalks the web looking for retards to set straight. He can not be stopped by mere bans or thread locks for he shall rise anew.

Yes, lets go back to play an old game with a dead community because Reach sucks.

No you didn't, you're only using a lame overused response. But I'll humor you and assume you didn't so instead you are just a moron who obviously can't see what it has to do with it having been too lazy to read a short paragraph.

It's not dead, you are only assuming it is having not played the PC version.

I don't see how some of you can whine over not being able to play the game so much when it is still available for online play.

Their populations are dead, and I don't have them. Plus, my computer's not that great.

Well I can understand for those of you who don't have a computer capable of it but if the graphics card is the issue, even I can play it and I have a really crappy one I got like four years ago. xD

Did you even read the OP? It clearly states that people still play and it doesn't require a great PC.

My PC is from 2006.

Ohai, I'm Loscocco (pronounced Loss-cocoa). I'm a college student (computer science major), 3D animator, and long-time Halo player.

My PC is crap and Halo 2 Vista's population is like 25 people... lol activity?

That would be a problem then. xD

Lets not double standard ourselves here.

Lets be honest, H2V population is crap. At best, there's 50 people. if Im not mistaken, 40+ servers, 20 dedicated, and again, at best 1 or two of them are filled. AT BEST. And those are usually just the standard variations of CTF on Coag.

Halo CE/PC? Maybe. But H2V? no.

I've been interested in playing this before but I've always been put off by the fact that I have to purchase physical copy of the game. Is there anywhere I can download it?

I was more of referring to both of the games combined, but yes the Halo CE community is much better off than the H2V community at the moment, but it shouldn't come as too much of a surprise that PC gamers have chosen a favorite of the two after all this time.

Also thanks for pointing out my spelling error I'll fix that.

Well there is but it's called pirating. Also I'm not sure how well multiplayer would work in the pirated version of the game.

That's a pity, I'm not going to risk downloading a pirated version with all of the malware that people seem to be keen sharing.

Bungie should really set up a download link so that I can buy a digital version of the game.
