Bungie is probably under a different license agreement than OWI allowing them to port it to the PC. In fact, Bungie has been talking about definitely still porting to the PC since they moved to the X-box.

So, um... this isn't really anything useful unfortunately.

Halo was all the time foreseen on PC. Munch no.
Bungie never said themself Halo would be Xbox exclusive, the plans of the PC version were there.

So... no hope

Get an Xbox if you want it. But it's awful looking anyway. If you need an Xbox for those sorts of graphics, then, SHIT! I am just not impressed with the game and can't believe you'd need a G-force 3 card and a hot CPU to run it!

Ok...compared to DOA3 they are shite. Think of the game characters in MO looking like the ones in DOA3 (Graphics wise)

Jacob, all fighting games have comparitively good graphics compared to just about anything else. This is because there are only a dozen or so characters to invest one disc's worth of polygons on, and only two to four characters are on a screen at once. So, yes, compared to DOA3, or UFC, or WWF, or whatever fighting game you can think of, MO does "look like shit".

True. But in a recent interview they said they had only invested 20% of the X-Box graphics capability into Munch. Suggesting they could of used better Graphics but due to lack of time they didn't.
