If you are one of the guys who bought Crackdown when it came out, you can now dowload the Halo 3 beta ( Start Crackdown, go to 'Dowloads' and wait a little while, it will appear )
dowloading it as we speak... i hope they didient mess it up like they did to halo 2.
kinda pissed you cant even touch the Xbox while its dowloading :/ it aint normaly like that.

| One of my friend tried downloading it yesterday before school so he could play when he got home, but he was having the same glitch alot of people are having. Lets just say hes not to happy, this was the only reason he bought Crackdown. |

Hahaha, boy the people who made Crackdown really played all of you guys... Goes to show you that purchasing something for a "promise" usually isn't a smart idea. -------------

i have a thoery as to why Halo 2 is so bad...
Microsoft : we want money, Release halo 2 now!
Bungie : but its not ready, and the xbox 360 isent even out yet what the heck are we soposed to do? Mircrosoft : Cut out evrething you can, leave only what is required.
thats the only thing i can imagine why the game would be so bad... and why Textures would load DURING gameplay, evre time you make a corner. Untested weponry on a system with about 1/10th of the sytem Requirements.

Your thoery is dead in the water. Took them 3 years to make 6 new maps, lens flare armour, and a hit detection box the size of kansas.
Thumbs down indeed.

ii dont know where you got the idea there is only 6 new maps... but ok. Hit detection box size are down :) maybe a tinsy bit bigger then Halo 1, but nothing realy noticable.
and along with that armor, they also had an entire campain to make(Campain maps included ), new weapons and vehicles, but anyway, il stop there.
Halo 3 Plays more like halo 1. i give it thumbs up.

What was the second Halos story about? It was never released for the PC so I didn't bother playing more than a level or two. -------------

Halo 2 is comming out for PC soon, on Vista.
you dont need to know the story really... At tne end of halo 2, we are basicly in the same place as the end of halo 1..
we Arive back to earth, Only to find the Covenant attacking.
two main Difrences, Your on some Forunner ship, and Cortana is stuck on the last halo you where on.
( also, a small groop of Elites is probably going to Defect and join the Human side )

Even though Im not a Halo fan, I do owe alot to it. When I was 11 or 12 my friend got Halo and I thought it was the coolest game ever. But I didn't have an XBox and my parents had just bought me a PS2. So I went to best buy and looked for anything that even somewhat resembled Halo. I went down the computer game aisle and there on the cover of a game was a guy hold wat looked to be a futuristic gun and a robot behind him. The game turned out to be... PlanetSide! So if it wasn't for Halo, I would have most likely never found this game. |

TopDawg and I saw an it on Tech TV back before it got shitty. We both bought it loved it and the rest is history  .
And is it only going to be Vista compatible? Cause if so i'll be sad, I have a great computer and i'm sure it could run it, but I don't want to upgrade to Vista... I might later on when I buy a new g-card that is Direct X 10 compatible but I don't really know if i'll do that either. -------------

Halo 2 is going to be Vista only... i say 'going' because i dont even think its out yet for vista... halo 3 is years from being available on the PC.
