This is why they have levels though. I understand that Bungie think its hard, but i would appreciate if they would just say that instead of making a poor excuse.
The PC people would get the drift of it after a while, and then the competition would be insane. Imagine how many players there would be. I think that not matching them up with the XBL players is stupid because there is so much opportunity for a better way of playing the game.
And another thing with the price factor, XBL users like myself pay money annually to play ALL games over live, not just halo 2. And really, no xbox user is going to care about price, people who use XBL no that it is worth every cent, and if anyone has a problem with its small price, then they should just quit gaming all together.

Will I be Matchmade with Halo 2 Xbox players who have more than two years head start?
No, as the question indicates, the gulf (more than two years) between the launch of Halo 2 on Xbox and Halo 2 on PC means that a level playing field would be impossible. Add to that the fact that both versions have their controls and aiming system balanced and tuned for that system's abilities and you would have a lopsided situation at best. Halo 2 Xbox players will continue to play against Xbox and Xbox 360 players, and Halo 2 PC players will play against other PC players. Although we will support other control methods, including joystick vs. mouse, the player will always have the choice, so if he feels confident he can beat a mouse-player online, that’s his prerogative. We won’t be forcing him.
