The PC version came out nearly 2 years after the XB version. Most people played it on XB first.

I believe I was a senior in high school when this came out or at least when I really played it for PC. So that was around 2005. I had dialup back in those days and dominated in online play. I dont remember the name of the website, but there was competitive halo online play with klans and stuff. Big klan name at the time was ROC. After matches, you would have to take screenshots and upload them to the website to keep track of wins/loses.

Miss those days.

I remember those days. Not the dial-up part though. Have had DSL since 1996 and had an ISDN line for a year before that. Still didn't beat LAN parties though. Ironically, nothing does yet. But I digress...

Ya I almost never pre-order, but for this, I made an exception.

If Master Chief had a car.

I think there's no need to even reach the Microsoft part... PC always had way better games than Halo, which flopped each time they arrived on PC back in the day (and not only because they were only ported 2 years after launch). The one I played was one of the most repetitive games I ever seen... compared to PC game standards at the time, it was mediocre, to say the least. Not hating, just calling it as it is. There's plenty of console games that had success when ported to PC, but this one was never the case, much less to the same level it had on console...

The only reason they flopped is because of shady bullshit by microsoft. Let's put Halo 2 behind a huge brick wall of Vista, Games for Windows LIVE, & DX10 That worked well.

Are those re-mastered versions of the games? And I mean with increased poly count and Hi-Res textures at least, not just Hi-res and custom format support...

Yes. Remastered from the ground up and support for 21:9 and 4K resolutions. They are working on all the games but releasing them one by one and working out the bugs and trying for a great release (unlike most companies these days)

Yes, through Game Pass. Went to renew Game Pass and found Ultimate for a $1 for 3 months, I might wait a while to buy the whole thing through Steam.

I played a little bit of it. I’ve never actually played a Halo before. It’s pretty fun I guess once I get the hang of the mechanics.

I know, but I refuse to buy an incomplete product. When it is complete and finished, I'll buy it.
