The media blowout has started check any game website for a ton of screens like this:


EDIT: And yes, that is Sarge.

This game is gonna rock so much. I just watched one of GS's vid's on it, and maaaaan. The AI'll actually drive the Warthogs around with you on gun for once!

FarCry = queer french-canadian waste.

Halo 2 = 0wnage.

nyah.

About right. Consoles? Meh... I hope it comes to PC eventually.

[Unknown Target]

Ditto...any news on that at all?
Halo 2's just a console game with good graphics to me until it comes out on PC.

I still don't think a PC version of Halo 2 will come to light however. Nothing has been stated at all.

[Flipside]

Oh gosh, an even better looking way of putting a little cross over your enemy and pressing fire.......

Must admit, getting really bored with FPS games these days.

BTW Half-Life 2 is coming to the Xbox.. Sooo...

Half-Life 2 for PC owners

Half-Life 2 and Halo 2 for Xbox owners.

It'll come. To not port it at all would be a huge mistake. Especially financially.

[NGTM-1R]

Give it a year. Maybe two.

[Deepblue]

I bet Setekhs playing Halo 2 right now.... It should be out it Australia by now.

Just hope it's not Gearbox again............

Albeit Halo2 is reportedly a lot more optimised for the X-box architecture, so a Pc port would be more difficult and thus expensive - and also more unlikely.

Not that you'd be missing too much, though - Pc is the king of FPS anyways, what would be a big FPS on the xbox is just another fish in the sea on the PC.

Heres some moretantalizing screenies for those of you who do not have an Xbox:
w00t! Teammates that help!

More of dress-uniform Sarge.

Mmmm explosion.

Halo 2 Xbox has 1.5 million preorders, I think financially the PC version might be a money hole for the gain to be gotten from it. I really think MS might want to keep this exclusive, if not permanently, for a long while.

I'd like to see a PC version though, just a better port this time around.

To be honest (RE: screenies), I don't think Halo2 looks much better than, for example, Jedi Academy on the PC.  It seems all very angular - i.e. plain and low detailed.  Original had that problem, too.

A couple more:
"Wow, he's taller then I thought..."

Grunty grunt.

Heads up!

Drop off.

Move out!

I'm starting to be reminded of when every freakin' game that game out was more or less a duplicate of Street Fighter:

Mortal Kombat, Tekken, etc etc etc.

Now you have:

Unreal, Doom, Quake, Half-Life, Halo....

At least the Thief series still stands pretty unique .  No crosshairs and killing everyone is the fastest way to lose.
