Re: if you would...

In Response To: if you would... (ONEi)

: there is only one problem i see when reading all of these posts. Halo cost
: what, $70? not $700 (yes i'm aware the Xbox cost a whack of money, but
: i'll get to that in a moment). you people paid a typical amount of money
: for an atypical game. also, the Xbox is a very promising system with a lot
: of potential, give it time, there will be many games worth buying. don't
: be to quick to assume Halo is the best there'll be. the Super Nintendo
: made Final Fantasy 3 - a wonderful RPG, but dull in many aspects - then
: came along Chrono Trigger, which looked as if it was made on a completely
: different console! where i'm going with this is, Halo set the standards
: (albeit you all raised them too high) but someone else will come along and
: break those standards, like Chrono Trigger did.
: am i making sense to anyone? it took me some time to write this down in a way
: where it didn't seem i was judging anyone - or at least harshly.
: i haven't even played Halo yet. i'm not even going to bother with the Xbox;
: my computer does just fine (just gotta wait for the PC/MAC version).
: oh...what if Bungie released Halo originally on the PC? now wouldn't that
: piss a lot of people off, having to spend $2000 or so for a PC to handle
: the load. hehehe
: also, i'll put my e-mail below so you can contact me (i dunno if it'll show
: up; i typed it in the "subject" bar). i have one question... is
: there even a guesstimate as to when the PC/MAC version will be out? i read
: a post and he/she said a year... now c'mon! if that's uninformed, please
: inform me. thanks.

Nobody really knows. In fact, never mind "really" — NOBODY knows, not even Bungie. Speculation is rampant. A year, by all accounts, however, seem absurdly long — Q1 or Q2 (or maybe Q3, if you're pessimistic) 2002 seems like a better bet to me. But we all have our own guestimates.
