In Response To: Re: why WOULDN'T Halo 2 xbox be bungie's next proj (HardCore) : A. They stand to make tons more from the Xbox than PC's .. many many articles : about the demise of the PC market. Also, Many over companies have already : switched over to the console market because of the rampant piracy that : exists in the PC market (you have no idea how developers feel to see their : hard work being stolen). : B. Consoles are easier to develop for. One piece of hardware .. not 100 : different video cards, sound cards, OS's, processor differences, etc. : C. M$ owns bungie ... Why would bungie develop for another platform first? : even if its the PC market? Times are hard, its also hard to find talent : and even when you do .. money constraints ruin many of the groups : available, so bungie probably likes that they have the money backing from : the big M$ (and they probably hate M$ as a company as well). : D. Consoles are FAR more visable than PC's. You make a good console game ... : and watch the reviews fly. You make a good PC game ... and you get little : thunder. : E. Developing for the Xbox, Bungie can actually see their ideas come to life, : the way they want to and as they become more familiar w/ the hardware .. : they can do even more. Developing for the PC, you have to worry about : whats the standard and see if you can do the same things you wouldn't have : to worry about for a console. Do you support online 56k? only Broadband? : Nvidia has a nice GPU ... but does everyone on a PC have a Nvidia GPU? 5.1 : sound? .. and you begin to see the picture. Where's F, as in the grade I give this post?
