Halo 2 for PC? WHY I NEVER.

In Response To: An Idea that isn't Halo 2 PC (Spenser)

: Sorry, but if anyone remembers a while back, Microsoft introduced XNA
: Software which is supposed to integrate tools for console game creation

: Point being, realistically I don't see much advantage for Bungie to work on

"Point being, realistically I don't see much advantage for Bungie to work on

Is hiring 4 people to work on a port of a 2 year old game going to overshadow Bungie's next project? No. Halo was on the PC, so why not Halo 2? God knows people have been begging for it. And maybe the listing didn't ask for MAC experts, becuase someone else is working on the MAC port, or someone already inside Bungie is. They used to be a MAC game developer, you know. Or maybe it just won't BE for MACs. Wouldn't make much of a difference, now would it? :)
(sorry for the diss, MAC users)

I'd definately download a demo for H2PC, I'd love too see what the modding community could do with it. (Fun with Juggernauts, anyone?) Anyway, just my 2 cents. Not that my comment is worth anything.
