On PC Halo

There's some Halo: Combat Evolved for PC news on GameSpot with a status report on the PC version of the Xbox shooter. The article recounts the history of this project as a PC/Mac project that was assimilated into an Xbox project upcoming Microsoft's acquisition of Bungie, how Gearbox happened to become involved in the PC port, some of the technical hurdles they have vied with, what parts of the "about 40% done" project they have completed, plans to add next-gen graphics card and internet support, and more.

I wwas looking forward to this...a couple of years back. Now it's just old news, not interesting anymore. I tried to avoid all the spoilers too, but I got the ending shoved down my throat anyway...hell, I never even played the game when it came out, because I was sure it was going to be released soon after for the pc.
Plus of course now I feel screwed over for a marketing stunt by the boys at M$.

Now I just couldn't care less. It's like half-life (the original, no mods) being released for the ps2, or xbox. Big wow.

I say screw Bungie! They screwed all of us PC gamers that supported them while they developed Halo. Halo was to be a PC title that I personally waited 2 years for and they sold us all out at the last minute to Microsoft. SCREW BUNGIE!!!

Mmm, I'm interested. The last console I owned was an SNES (and that was quite a while ago ^_^) and never having touched an XBOX, Halo is still new for me. I'd be willing to try it out if they put out a demo around the release time. Personally, I'm not going to knock it before it's even released on the PC: it might be a very good PC game in the end.

Is it just me? This looks kind of weak. Please no flames. I just was hoping for a little something more. It looks pretty dull. I can remember my jawing hitting the floor when I saw the first screens of this in pc gamer ages ago. I purposefully avoided the xbox version as I felt like it was somehow "dirtied" after becoming an xbox exclusive. I guess this is truly a port, which means it will ultimately suffer on the pc. Damn the bad luck. Oh well, Unreal 2 will be out soon. (shining star on the horizon) -- maybe
