..according to this kiosk, similar to the Gears of War PC kiosk that leaked at one point. I would suspect MS will be launching Halo 3 with their new GFW Live download service that is supposed to launch this Fall, but who knows. Since Gears 2 will be moving 360's this Fall, it wouldn't be out of the question, and knowing just how crazy 360 fans are about getting more achievments, this would be another way for MS to sell even more copies, as they've always done in the past.

This Fall or next spring, it's either or in my eyes

I'll tell ya what, if MS improves on the textures and puts a little TLC into it, maybe adds in DX10 like it's supposed to be implemented, i'll pick it up for sure. I played it, beat it and sold it for 360 so I wouldn't mind having a PC version, especially if the CE peeps jump on this to make some cool stuff for it.

anyone who thought halo 3 wouldnt come to the pc eventually should rethink things through about ms and its ties with xbox360 to pc games.

Wouldn't surprise me. Or actually it would a little after the Halo 2 flop.

I would had gotten Halo2 if it wasn't a Vista exclusive Live game, or would had come with seriously updated textures etc. or would had come out 2 years earlier. Unfortunately I think I will end up in the same conclusion with Halo3.

But if there was some Halo bundle with H1, H2 and H3 and all working in XP, I'd buy it.

Apparently Halo sells quite well on PC since all 3 are on PC. It would be nice if MS released some figures. If it is released exclusively for Vista, then MS is shooting itself in the foot.

Yeah probably MS will release it on Vista.

.... Porting via DirectX is cheap and takes 2-3 people? even like 100k sales would be profit. so why not do it?

Although by SW standards I consider this as 360 losing an exclusive, and their biggest one for that matter, any game going to the pc implies that it will be played by people who play it on a machine running M$'s most important product, and therefore for M$ it is actually a good thing.

Don't really care. There are better shooters out there for the PC and it's going to be Vista only again.

Yeah xbox360 is finished :roll:

Damage control am confirmed.

I was told halo 3 wont come to the PC for around 3 years by all the lemmings.

Xbox 360 is clearly the most worthless console that there ever was for a PC gamer.

Yeah, I'm pretty much the same. It's better than the 2nd, though, so I guess it's a playable game if there aren't many other great PC games around the time of its release.
