Re: Exactly what I wanted to hear Matt!

In Response To: Exactly what I wanted to hear Matt! (XNOR) : Those of you that felt the urge to 'put me in my place' by stating its absurd : to ask such a question after its been looked at by, say, Jason. : I KNOW! ive read everything Bungie has to say about this subject yet havent : found what we are all looking for. : Here we are waiting for Matt's word, stating the PC/Mac version is in effect, : and nothing. Then Matt replies with, "We had some more meetings this : week, and we're still looking into the video card thing" for example. : If thats all he has to say, then so be it. It was just awkward with the : release of (console)Halo and then this long quiet pause... kina makes me : feel left out. What because we are supposed to ask the artists artistic : questions? I still havent played Halo much, at least not enough to ask : something specific. All i was saying is a little reminder that I am here. : But as Matt stated about the quiet pause, i respect. : Matt, i personally thank you for all the attention you have given to the : Bungie fans. Much respect to the time and effort you have put forth in : presenting a worth while weekly Halo update in the past. I know that you : can and will (not and expectation) continue to feed these whordes. You know, if you really didn't want to feel left out you could buy an Xbox. The tension here is that Bungie is being asked to satisfy two groups of fans: those who have bought an Xbox and those who haven't. The tension between these two groups of fans is the source of most all of the tension I've witnessed on this forum. And it's understandable, at this time, that xbox players be given the stuff they want now, and interviews with artists are cool and appropriate. Why would Bungie (or Microsoft) suddenly start talking about cool features that are being implemented in the PC version when there are still piles of xboxes and xbox Halo games to sell? From a marketing point of view, it would be idiotic for them to do so. I'll probably buy Halo again when it comes out on a Mac if they do implement PC-only features--I like the game that much. I believe that the PC-only features are at the heart of what the PC gamers want to hear about, so that their decision not to buy an Xbox is can be better justified. That's understandable, too. But I'm not going to blame Bungie for not marketing (which is essentially Matt's job) the PC version while the xbox campaign is in full swing. Let's be realistic. Gorehead
