Re: gamers.com on Halo for PC

In Response To: Re: gamers.com on Halo for PC (Louis Wu)

: Heh - there's no easy way to authenticate this post; it came from an IP
: address never used here before, so I know it's not a regular impersonating
: Jeff, but that doesn't really mean anything, does it?

: Bottom line, though - why would Bungie go to all this effort to convince
: people that the PC version really is coming, if MS had already nixed it?
: A better question - why would MS ALLOW Bungie to make so much noise
: about a PC version if they'd already nixed it?

: In any case... the best thing to do would be to simply wait - either it'll
: come out, or it won't. (Of course, columnists get paid to write columns,
: and if they waited until the product was actually out, they'd probably get
: fired for sitting on their ass too long...)

It's really me. No need to do detective work. This is the notorious Jeff Green from CGW, posting from home. I found comments on evilavatar.com and then followed 'em over here.

I *do* hope Halo shows up on the PC--hopefully sooner than later. My whining on gamers.com was really just pessimistic feelings that MS would hold back the port to sell more Xboxes. If not, then great. As I made it clear (err, I thought, anyway), I love the game, and I love Bungie (I played Marathon back on the Mac when it first came out, and still think it's one of the most underrated games of all time. I'd put it in the CGW Hall of Fame, if CGW was a dictatorship.) I know there's folks at Bungie working hard on the port. I meant no disrespect towards Bungie. My pessimistic comments were directed at MS--who I felt would be inclined to let marketing concerns for the Xbox decide when the PC version would be released. If I'm wrong--then yippee.
