I heard someone say once (paraphrasing here) "Multiflag on Blood Gulch with your friends is what makes Halo, Halo." I GUARANTEE that more people agree with that sentiment than "Getting a 50 in MLG is what makes Halo, Halo." - Oboewan42

"Our acquisition of GameSpy brings Glu industry-recognized leadership in online, cross-platform technology infrastructure," said Niccolo de Masi, Chief Executive Officer of Glu. "GameSpy's battle-tested team will enable Glu's product roadmap to include robust and highly scalable multiplayer and social functionality."

Except I don't give a flying -blam!- about mobile games and their leaderboards.

-blam!- off Glu.

I found this on the halo 1 forum:

"The server lists are working fine.

As a note, Halo doesn't have servers dedicated to it. It costs virtually nothing to keep the server list working."

We are saved! Gamespy only say they are turning of the ones that cost money and halo hasn't been confirmed yet!

I'm going to miss Halo CE PC.

Edit: Or maybe it's not gone?

Some things in this World you just can't explain; but that doesn't mean they are any less true, just that you have to chose to believe in them.

So is Battlefront 2 still in the clear?

And would I be able to play Battlefront on Steam?

Recon Number 54 -
If they are still looking, then while holding the snarl, I let drool start to drip from my mouth, I stand, curl my fingers into claws and with a hunched over crouch, I then make slow and deliberate steps towards them. When I get close enough, I let them hear my agonized and gasping growls and then, if they continue to stare, when I get within arm's reach? I kiss them on the nose, and run away giggling.

GameRanger does most of the same games as gamespy.

Just saying...

Agreed. All the changes are good and add variety. Do we really want another Halo 3? Just running around with one gun and no armor abilities? It's good that 343 wants to try something new. Do we really want the same thing for three more games?

I don't think BF2 has it anymore either.
Correct me if I'm wrong.

That's a shame.

This world wants to drag you down... And the weight, that guilt they want to hang around your neck, you don’t have to carry it one more step. You think they won’t let you rest, but it’s not up to them. It never was.

That sucks. I hope Halo PC survives this :(

Nobody cares about anyone else's opinion - be it mine, yours, or a cult of angry star wars nerds - when they are enjoying what they enjoy.

Everyone cares about opinions, that's why we socialize on a forum with strangers.

H... Halo... HALO?!!?

NOOOOOOOOOOOOO

They warned me that it would eventually happen... but I wouldn't listen.

Halo PC no longer has internet multiplayer.


Edit: Just checked Halo PC. It still works. For now, anyway.

I came up with it when I was 10.

I just had to start Halo PC to check. It works just fine, what are you talking about?

Why buy something if you're going to shut it down?

Edit: Ah, they're using the technology for something else.

Thats what they all say...

This is why consoles are the best.

Lol is that why original xbox servers are still up? Oh wait they aren't. People can still play online as long as they know the IP address which isn't all that bad.


Implying the original xbox was even a console.
