10) for selling out to Microsoft

9) for allowing Gearbox to port Halo:CE to the PC

8)for completely ignoring how terrible said port was, and focusing attention on Halo 2

7)for Halo 2 being so bad

6)for first saying "Halo 2 on PC? No way!" and then announcing Halo 2 for the PC a year later

5)for not just simultaneously releasing Halo 2 on both the PC and X-Box in the first place

4)for making me go and buy Windows Vista just so I can play Halo 2 on the PC

3)for absolutely destroying the best map in Halo:CE, bloodgulch and making that horrendous Coagulation map

2)for putting quantity before quality and attempting to satisfy the "majority" of their consumer crowd with Halo 2, by adding user friendly features into an FPS video-game

1)for still having no word or even a hint on a release date in the month of February, a full week after Windows Vista was released, for Halo 2 Vista.

Don't follow in my footsteps; I walk into walls
my 360s blog

1. Bungie were to busy with Halo 2
2. Microsoft uses Halo to push xbox/360 sales then releases the games on PC 18 months-2 years later
3. The release date is up in air due to problems with Live anywhere which according to Carbonated game is not due till late summer.

5) Delayed releases are common place and even happen between console types such as playstation/xbox.

4) Microsoft in no way "MADE" you buy anything. Your PC doesn't have something a game needs it is no fault of the programmers. Should they make it software only mode and in 256 colours so that people who still use Windows 3.1 don't have to go out and are "MADE" to buy more things for thier PCs?

1) Halo2V isn't a launch title for Vista. The fact one plays on the other and are linked together by distributor has no connection between release dates.

10) Having more money and a better ability to put more units out faster is a bad thing.
9) Ugh, nothing to say about this one
8) Spent that time making a game that would sell 9+ millions copies
7) Uhem, 9+ million copies...
6) Thats not a good thing?
5) Does it matter? It's coming out now and thats all that matters
4) Not forcing you to buy anything...
3) Coagulation is really fun if you don't spend all your time complaining about everything
2) Because they like making money
1) Think it might not be done yet? Maybe? Possibly?

All in all, Bungie likes making money, Microsoft like making money, and you like their games... which means you're giving them money

Are you people done crying into your baby bottles yet?

10: That's business kid, deal with it.
9: They learned from their mistakes didn't they?
8: Why dwell on the past? They did patch the game like 6 times.
7: Halo 2 was mediocre.
6: Just be happy they changed their minds.
5: So what? They did the same thing with Halo PC.
4: They're not making you buy anything. Gaming is a luxury kid, not a necessity.
3: Blood Gulch isn't that great to begin with.
2: Gee, isn't that how it's supposed to work? The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few.
1: Patience is a virtue.

Why don't you go wipe the snot off your face. Bungie is a business, as such, they have to make decisions that are advantageous to the company. And if you don't like their decisions, well, like what's been said before, no one is forcing you to buy anything. Go play Half-life if you're so mad. No one wants to hear your -blam!- bellyaching.

In response to #9:http://gbxforums.gearboxsoftware.com/showthread.php?t=23429

Thank you for proving yourself as someone who blindly hates a company without knowing all the facts. This goes for everyone else who believes only Gearbox screwed up Halo 1 PC. Try doing some research before proving your ignorance.

If Halo 2 is so bad, why do you care that it didn't come out on PC right away? Hypocrits(sp?) FTL.

Get Marathon Here
Get Marathon 2 and Infinity Here

For not releasing on PC and XBox at the same time? You do know that it's not Bungie making the port...right?

And if you hate Bungie for these reasons...you must despise EA.

I second that. And I sure as hell hate it when Maw regulars here lie to themselves saying "0mg duud3, stfu, becuz bung!e & micros0ft isnt selling v!5ta f0r th@t". Wake the EFF up people, ya'll know H2V is a Vista sale-enforcer. Stop lying to yourselves.

If you honestly believe a port of a three year old Xbox game is going to be a major selling point of a brand new, updated OS, then you are one clueless person.

You are the one who needs to wake up and use a little common sense.

I'm the one who has no clue and has no common sense? Don't make me laugh jerk.

Seriously, us PC players never really got the chance to play Halo2, because of quite a few reasons:

- no Xboxes
or
- pure, PC players
or
-just hated the Halo2 engine itself (autoaim, huge hitboxes, etc.)

Now don't you think Microsoft will want to boost their chances of a bigger sale of their new OS, with a PC version of Halo2, to get everyone of us excited? I never said H2V is single handedly going to make everyone one of us buy the new VIsta OS. I said it was an "enforcer", as in helping the sales out a bit more. So why don't you shut up, and think about what you're going to say before you insult people.

And quite recently (heck, ever since forever), everytime I post something you disagree on, or simply makes you mad, you're constantly being a jerk to me. Just shut the hell up, I have opinions and common sense to you know.

No I don't want to join your group/clan/cult.

Saying "flame Away Noobies" is really what we want to hear.

Aww. You called me a jerk. Wah wah. I'm so hurt :'(

Microsoft IS NOT releasing Halo 2 Vista in an attempt to boost sales of the OS. I'm sorry, but how many people are going to go buy a new OS to play a game?

Answer: Very Few.

You have it completely backwards. When someone goes into the computer store, and they see Halo 2 Vista. They'll be like "Wow, Halo 2 for PC! Oh wait, it's for Vista. Why bother? I'm not paying for a new OS just to play the game..."

It would probably go along the lines of this: "Wow! Windows Vista! I'm gunna buy it because it's the brand new better than ever version of Windows!!. Oh hey look, Halo 2 VISTA!!!. Sweet! Now I have a game I can play on Vista!"

It's like with the Xbox. People didn't buy the Xbox to play Halo. They bought Halo to play on the Xbox they already bought.

Oh and this too:

Enforcer, noun:
1. a person or thing that enforces.
2. the member of a group, esp. of a gang, charged with keeping dissident members obedient.
3. a person, esp. a public official, who enforces laws, regulations, rules, or the like.
4. Also called policeman. Ice Hockey. a physically intimidating or willingly belligerent player who is counted on to retaliate when rough tactics are used by the opposing team.

I think the word you were looking for is:

Reinforcer. Verb: 1. to strengthen with some added piece, support, or material: to reinforce a wall.
2. to strengthen (a military force) with additional personnel, ships, or aircraft: to reinforce a garrison.
3. to strengthen; make more forcible or effective: to reinforce efforts.
4. to augment; increase: to reinforce a supply.
5. Psychology. to strengthen the probability of (a response to a given stimulus) by giving or withholding a reward.

And one last thing. You didn't make me mad. Getting mad at what someone says on an internet forum is pretty pathetic. Wouldn't you say?
