Halo PC

Now all you non X-Boxers will get to see what this game is all about. I'm going to buy this again because it's worth it. :)

"...The quintessential quality of our age is that of dreams coming true. Just think of it. For centuries we have dreamt of flying; recently we made that come true: we have always hankered for speed; now we have speeds greater than we can stand: we wanted to speak to far parts of the Earth; we can: we wanted to explore the sea bottom; we have: and so  on, and so on: and, too, we wanted the power to smash our enemies utterly; we have it. If we had truly wanted peace, we should have had that as well. But true peace has never been one of the genuine dreams - we have got little further than preaching against war in order to appease our consciences. The truly wishful dreams, the many-minded dreams are now irresistible - they become facts." - 'The Outward Urge' by John Wyndham

phert, I can only buy one game, like, every 2-3 years and that's gonna be HW2.
Doubt Halo will be moddable at all, with it being a console port and Micro$hit at the helm.

If you read the article it says they're hoping to be releasing all the modding tools with it. I like the way everybody says "M$ will make it ****" when Microsoft have nothing to do with the game other than publishing it. It's Bungie (Gearbox for the port) that decides what happens with the game and I have a lot of faith in Bungie. One of the few games companies left that try to push themselves and continually make awesome games.

Ummm.... Microsoft owns Bungie. You think Bungie decided to drop development of the Mac version at anything less than gunpoint?

I know MS owns Bungie. I said that I believe, probably not clear enough anyway. However, I recall reading a posting somewhere (try to dig it up if I can) that Bungie droppped PC and Mac development to focus on the XBox version partly because MS wanted them too but mostly because it saved them a LOT of time with compatability issues and such, which gave them more time to polish the game and add graphical features that weren't yet available for either the PC or Mac.

Looks good, I'll buy it - it might not be epic anymore but it's still a good looking game with a lot to do in it.

Finally!  Halo with a keyboard and mouse.  Ke-rist FPS suck with a gamepad.
If happiness is a warm gun and love is a battlefield, why should we give peace a chance?

Halo wasn't that bad to be honest, I've playes a lot worse control wise (Timesplitters 2) but I am looking forward to Keyboard and mouse, mostly the multiplayer though because you can fly the Banshee's (can't on the Box of X)
