Pfft, Halo's story was solid enough for me to buy it for that alone and be satisfied.

lol @ people who think Halo Wars will flop, it wont do Halo 3 type numbers, but it will do good. Its got Halo, and RTSs are becoming more popular on consoles. Even if it did, why would M$ be in need of money?
Microsoft maybe wouldn't, but if sales aren't as successful as they hope, Bungie may be in need of money. I say that they go back to the Marathon games. They were better.

Microsoft and Bungie are no longer one and the same. Different companies now.

Havoc beat me to it.

I dunno. Without shields analyzed it always seems to take longer to kill the boss. I don't know why, but it just happens that way.

I always felt the problem with 360 is that a bunch of their best exclusives are also available on PC for less money! Personally I like the experience of playing on a console better these days, but I'm sure plenty of people have passed on 360 just because they can pick up Mass Effect or Gears on PC.

I think Microsoft is just trying to keep Halo 3 an exclusive on 360 because it still sells. Once it becomes a platinum hit or whatever it'll probably be ported to the PC, I hope so I enjoyed Halo 1 and 2.

Some games just play better on a console. Racers for instance are primarily made for consoles these days and have absolute shit controls on the PC because a keyboard doesn't have an axis. It's just hard left or hard right which makes you slam into the side rail every second.

Shooters however should stay primarily PC games unless the games are exclusively designed for consoles like Gears of War 1 & 2.

Left 4 Dead, Timesplitters, Halo etc are all shooters on consoles I've thoroughly enjoyed. I'd hate to use a mouse for them.okay except maybe l4d

Firstly, yes, it will be released eventually, but in so long a time that everyone will forget about it, including you.
Secondly, do yourself a favour and buy an xbox, it means you'll have less time to be given neg rep here.
And what the above said, I prefer shooters and action games (Like say, Fable) on the consoles.

The PC offers the best gaming experience possible as well, if you ever see comparison screen shots of games that are also available on 360 or PS3 the difference is staggering PC games are always so much brighter.

You obviously haven't tried playing games on my pc. If you had, I would know. It's in my house. In my bedroom. Where I have naked time.

But that's cuz people put money into it to make it better.

360 is cheaper and things are always at one level. that's why people buy consoles, so they don't have to jam in a new graphics card to make work every new game wave.
