The answer is yes, for Windows Vista

Yes, because idiots will by anything, even if it's something they've already had for 3 years.

Yeah, I guess those stupid idiots will 'by' anything. They're so stupid.

Oh, and also: Arrange your waterfall of text into readable paragraph form and I shall consider reading it.

Well done, sir. Waterfall is definitely an appropriate metaphor.

Also, this BK doesn't realize that being able to mod Halo 2 will be impressive. I can't wait to play people's custom mods.

ya but do they give you the tools right in you're face to do it. Rember this is uncharted territory. and valve has got their hammer editor which is really easy to use im using it right now. They also have tools so you can make you're own mod and those guys have been really successful with mods. Source SDK on the tools menu.

Yeah, seriously. I didn't understand most of what was being said by you 'cause of improper grammar and spelling. I'm a -blam!- when it comes to proper English. Sorry if I offended anyone. >:D

I've used Hammer. I tried to make an airplane map for CS. (It failed).

If I wanted to mod CS, I would. I want to mod Halo 2 on my computer. So when it comes out for Vista, I'll be able to do that.

well the main question is it? well nothing has really changed. in the screen shots that ive seen so far just higher rez one or 2 more weapons on multiplayer. its basically the same game that was on the xbox. To my opinion it isn't going to sell as good as half life 2 episode 2. cause existing users that have xp, alls they have to do is buy the game off of steam. Down load it and run it. They don't even have to go to the store and buy it. And if you uninstall steam which uninstalls all you games with it . alls you have to do is install it again connect to your account and download your games you have on it. That easy. But can bungie beat steam. They had to use game spy i think for halo 1 on the pc. And game spy to me just isn't worth it. I use game spy on flight sim x and its a very crappy program. Valves platform steam is very robust and updates you're games automatically. The plat form even updates its self fixing bugs it has as long as you have an active internet connection. People keep telling me not to buy windows vista cause the bugs it already has. They said that I should just wait a year plus all of the expensive hardware you need to buy to upgrade it. Normally halo 2 runs off of xbox live. Bungie's favorite online platform. But for vista. Thats like uncharted territory. and not to mention all the bugs that vista might have. you may think windows is the perfect program but lets not forget this video At CES. lol blue screen. So when buying halo2 for vista is a way more higher risk than buying half life 2 ep2. Cause of all the upgrades. I want to see how it might turn out. Mostly in my opinion it isn't going to sell as well as its brother on the xbox but might catch a thousand copys before it ends up on the
bargain shelf you never know. And also how much is it going to cost? well on the new vista platform it might cost as much as 360 game cause it is a new platform. But that might affect the sales. or maybe its going to cost as much as you can get it on the xbox right now. well when it comes out it either going to sink or float. you're guess. But for now we don't know

I've challenged my beliefs. What is the book about?


I find that this is usually untrue. If religious people honestly, diligently and intelligently challenged their beliefs, there would be no religious people.

That was waay too long, so instead I just read the first and last sentences of it and can say: duck duck goose is all based on favoritism, and is a very, very crappy game.

The few, the proud, the leet.

Asking if H2V is going to sell is rediculous. It's like asking if Halo for PC was going to sell.

Halo 2 Vista will sell, probably not as well as HL2:Episode 2, Enemy Territory:QW, Unreal III, or Crysis, but I believe it will be in the top ten most sold games of 2007 (PC Games, that is.)
I'm sure sales could be boosted quite a bit, if, Bungie were to partner with a digital distributer, such as Steam.

you know how some games get ported to xp for the people that have a pc and not an xbox. well this is like saying to the people that have xp and not an xbox. Hey every one were porting halo2 to pc but i doesn't work on xp it work on a program you still don't have so you will never get to play it instead were going to brag about it how its for vista and you will never get it. thats kinda what its like saying. It would be better if they would put it on a platform that everyone has. but no they have to be different. They have to be the man.

You people seem to be missing the point, there really isn't a big change, but costum maps, mouses, high def textures. It's not a lot of big things that make games good, just getting the little things right, the big stuff will take care of itself.
