Is there going to be a Halo 2 Vista demo coming out soon, since Vista has been officially released now? I for one can't wait for even a demo.

Nope. Nothing of the sort.

Remember the demo for HPC came out about a few months AFTER it's official release.

ya, and Demos are kind of stupid to have, and if there is going to be a H2V Deom, then it should be 2 SP levels, one of the MC and one of the Elite, and no MP, that way people who really want to play MP has to go and buy the game.

Demoing the elite would essentially give away one of the main spoilers of H2.

Then again, if you don't know about the Arbiter by now, I'm sure the rock you live under is very nice...

Maybe some PC gamers who've never played Halo 2 due to the fact it's been a console title want to figure out the storyline for themselves once it's released?

Or they could mess with the E3 level and use that for the demo...

  • 02.04.2007 11:41 AM PDT

ya, but if they do make a Demo for H2V, I say 'No MP levels what so ever!!"

They will never make a demo of H2V. Supposing they did have a demo, it would have to run on Vista to give the same video quality as the full game to give an accurate representation of the game. Anyone who has the bucks to shell out for Vista and a upgraded PC is not going to have any qualms about buying H2V. Therefore, why bother giving people a demo?

As much as I would love to say you're not doing much to help either, you're right. I think Bungie doesn't support PC gamers as much as they do the Xbox players--at least, ever since this thing called Halo came around...

The multiplayer demo was pretty nice, but the guy who was playing sort of sucked (no offense). All the others were the same as him but I can't blame them since they must have never played it before. Anyway, the demo was nice and you got to see some new features (no vehicles(sorry to report)). All in all, nice graphics and keep up the good work Bungie!

P.S. I already know what happens in Halo 2 (just saying)

Because I've played the Halo PC Demo, and every one who plays MP in the Demo are very rude, and they TK, and some even mod their maps so they can spawn and have the pistol kill with on hit. Demo MP sucks, and let me put it this way, the netcode in H2V should be a whole lot better, then Halo CE's netcode.

Yes, some of us have already beaten Halo 2's Campaign... like three dozen times...

Anyway, I played the Halo PC demo before I bought the game, and it convinced me to buy the full version. I still play Blood Gulch CTF though. Those stupid teamkilling banshee-ramming retards really bothered me. I met one of the worst people there over the Internet.

I really think they should.

I'd like to demo the game before I buy it, because I want some more predictability on where my shots going. I hate playing games where everyone's warping and half the time when you take a shot they've warped 5 meters to the right. It's stupid and -blam!-.

I don't mind having lead either, I would prefer less though, and I would prefer it built in rather than lagged.

Halo Trial mods ftw! Nothing like having the machine gun warthog shoot out scorpian shell rounds! =)

Get Marathon Here
Get Marathon 2 and Infinity Here

I said it once, I say it again, Bungie isn't the one making H2V, it's Hired Gun, thus if you want updates, or want to beg for demos, or ask about H2V, your gona have to talk to Microsoft Gaming Studios.

Just like you had to go to GearBox for official Halo PC support.

Sometimes I wonder what the difference is between some of the people here and the kids in New Mombasa who -blam!- about XBox Live issues that have nothing to do with Bungie.

There is no word on a Demo, and if there was one it would be for Vista, not XP.

Or if you are desparate, you could rent an XBox, Halo 2, and imagine it with better graphics, and how much better it will be with a kb/m.

I'd like you to read the subtitle for this forum.

"Dedicated forum for Halo 2 Vista / Halo PC related discussions"

Dumbass.

I think just about anyone who likes Halo already knows about the Arbiter, unless they have a posh, uber luxurious rock to live under.
