Tell me about it. My life will consist of endless nights in front of my T.V. for the next several months. Goodbye social life!!!!
I'm curious, in the next little while if SP's are going to actually lose a little bit of business. They are saying that this game will earn more money in the first 24 hours than any blockbuster movie in history.
See you all online!

" I saw a commercial for a cool looking online war game. Can't recall the title for the life of me though. Anyone see anything like that using more up to date weapons? It's for PC."
Sounds like World Of Warcraft coming out for the PC on the 23rd. of this month.
Excellent game actually

Halo was originally going to be Mac only by Bungie but MS bought them since they did not have the talent to develop it on their own.
Ms then was only going to make it for XBox but finally due to poor sales of the XBox released Halo for PC and Mac. I still have the original Bungie Beta with multiple online cooperation play. You would drive another would navigate and another would be the gunner. U still get 50 or 60 guys online playing it ... pretty funny for a 4 year old beta that never got released.
I am surprised that MS released it before the XBox 2 which will be based on the G5 mac processor since it designed for better handling of complex graphics and multiple processing. The Xbox 2 will not be backward compatible eitherso expect to pay for an upgrade to Halo 2 for PPC. The developer kits for XBox for the Mac came out with the release of the G5 ..... MS never really gave that much press??? but i will be playing my XBox and Halo 2. just glad it came with the developers kit.

I think you are referring to Call of Duty. Unless you have a really high end graphics card forget. This game needs a really high frame rate but it is stunning on the right machine.Kathleen said:
As for Halo on another platform? Forget it, proprietary rights for Microsft and the XBOX. Besides PS2 could not do it justice. Game Cube - don't make me laugh.
Halo 2 will launch its pc version somewhere aroud mind November. ANd Half life 2 is coming out... woo hohoo.... CAnt wait to get that game. ANyone here plays CS source? I tried it out and its amazing, the graphic is sooo detailed.
Oh yah, you need one hack of a Graphic card to run Half life 2.

Crimson skies is a 1940's adventure seriel styled aviation combat game....definitely not the game she's thinking of.
The latest word, and I work in the industry, is that the XBOX 2 (Xenon) will indeed be backward compatible. Basically they are going to build a ghost of the entire XBOX system within the Xenon's operating system.
There is currently NO concrete timeframe, nor even an official announcement, that Halo 2 will be released for either the PC or the Mac.

Actually the developer kit explains that the XBox 2 will be run on the PPC platform and will not be backward compatable.
ALso the frameworks for the XBox 2 are Unix based so unless there is some wild port of WINE I cannot se it happening.

Got my copy of Halo 2 and have been playing for a couple of hours. The game blows me away. I have my XBOX connected to a 60" TV and 5.1 dolby digital, 6-speaker surround. Absolutely incredible. Best sound and visuals of any game I have ever played. A winner for Bungie.
I preordered mine so had no trouble getting hold of it. The manager at Blockbuster said that all of their stores were sold out. No date available on rerelease yet.
If you have an XBOX - you've got to play this game!!!

Alright, I bought X-Box and I bought Halo 2.
Its an awesome game, but I wouldn't say its the best game ever. I would have to say that Bond 64 was a better game for its time, but Halo 2 is definitly up there in the greatest games of all time.
Went to Zellers and they had plenty of copies of Halo 2, so if anybody is looking, Zellers has them. Though it probably means that other stores are stocked up with the game.
