I'm sure its probably going to go out whenever Microsoft decides to put it out. In the mean time, Doom 3 and Half Life 2 really look good. Of course if Halo 2 goes on PC, then I'm picking that up.

Of course they'll release it on PC, look at their fanbase!

Besides, they didn't say Halo 1 was going to be on PC until after it's release. They said GTA3 & 4 wasn't going to be on PC At All and yet 6 months later hmm there it is. It's the same old strategy of making console owners think they've got an exclusive just to keep them happy. Then we PC Gamers get a better, enhanced version a few months later to keep us happy, e.g. Halo1 they gave us a couple of extra weapons, maps etc to justify the delay, also better gfx, as with the GTA series they also re-mixed the audio I think for better quality, made draw distances larger etc.

If they don't make Halo 2 for the pc then i might...well
Even if i have to wait a whole year or two, it better come out on the pc. But, for me it is a little better if it comes out late because then i have time to make some money for a top end graphics card.

I'm Hopin

Na it won't be a year or two, the average convertion time is 6 months - a year. I'll say... hmm, autumn or winter 2005, in time for christmas. And of course it'll be better, and I imagine the kind of system you'll need will be hmm... 512MB ram, 2.8GHz cpu, 128MB gfx card. That's my recommended btw, I imagine the minimum will be unrealistically low.

A Tawianese company has that keyboard and mouse ready for order. Other then that, if Halo 2 doesn't come to PC, oh well. Nothing much we can do anyway. Reason why Halo came out on PC was because it was well in development before Microsoft gobbled it up. And with Halo PC released by Gearbox was so broken and dead, I think Microsoft is really thinking hard about it and probably hitting themselve for not releasing the game sooner instead of within that 4 year period. Anyways, Have fun.

I was re-reading the Haloi book trilogy earlier today, and you know what it says on the inside back cover? "experience Halo - available only on xbox" See how long that lasted? Until Bungie say "Halo 2 willl NOT be on PC", we have every reason to assume it will be.

Yeah, they would release it...cause there are more PC users than X-Box users so it would only make sence. Besides, I find PC versions of games that come out for consoles at first are much better, cause they tend to slap more options and better things that they couldn't fit due to the system's memory or space. Also PC versions are full customizable...so that's always better

Yeah I agree, it's nice to have the game set up the way you like. First thing I did when I installed Halo was change the keybindings (well, I changed the change weapon from tab to mouse wheel button, and zoom to wheel scroll). And of course you've got more mutliplayer options. PC rox.

Thats what i am talking about. I was just gowing to complain about Halo 2 not going to PC first. It is really fun in PC, and id tike as an old Hardcore player to say that its more easyer to make cool triks, and it is the true test of your reflekses and speed. And an opportunity to impres your friends, or gyes in the internet.

Fanbase? I see people in the Gearbox forum somewhat angry and them for delaying the game and not offering tech support. Thats fanbase for you.
