Surface ... in other words, tabletized Windows 8, will run Halo 4.

Extrapolation: Halo 4 PC incoming? Windows 8 Exclusive? Vista failure like Halo 2?

Who can say, who can say ..

Same here. I doubt they would upgrade Forge to be a proper map editor on PC, but think of how great it would be... :O

Twitch shooters? Those are the cream of the crop when it comes to "hardcore" but this is like saying Total War is casual because Iron Hearts 3 exists. That is stupid. Stop being a twit.

There are very few competitive games in general

Theres only really Counter Strike Global Offense and Tribes Ascend. Nothing of late has struck me as a "competitive" game

If that's true, I can't see Halo 4 coming onto tablets, but certainly a Halo mobile version or some remote play stuff.

Not really a great analogy.

An fps with a controller litterally feels like steering a tank, when compared to m/kb; just accept it. It's nothing like arbitrarily comparing two strategy games.

Wasdie once said that the comparison was silly because Halo was a designed with consoles in mind, I agree.

It's a fair analogy; Halo isn't controlling a tank, Killzone 2 is over there, laddy. Try again.

It's also in the realm of far fetched. From a game design POV, noone's going to assume that you carry a 360 controller around with your tablet; along with that slightly too large PSV.

Regardless...... If it plays well with touch screen controls, it will be an awfull game.

It'll be like going from PC to consoles but worse, which is pretty dire in terms of fps.

Every single multiplat FPS requires tweaking in order to get rid of mouse acceleration. If you ever aimed at anything with a mouse, you're well aware of how sluggish DA controls emulate that.

There's actually a good chance of Halo 4 comming to PC, seeing as Windows 8 is near. Usually M$ uses Halo as bait. Halo was bait for the Xbox. Halo 2 for Vista. Halo 3 for the 360. Likewise for Halo 4 and Windows 8, respectively.

Can you imagine Halo 4 for pc? 1080p, 60 fps my god. If announced I will build my pc early. The art look gorgeous. I really doubt this though. Microsoft has never released a new Halo for windows until years later. I wish they would though :(

Its noticeable, but tank-esque it is not. The analogy still stands, don't be a twit.

Halo would be more than welcome on my PC. I've always loved the games. Outside of Half Life it's the only FPS with a story I enjoy.

I don't really care about Halo games,but hey,if true,good news.More games on a platform are never a bad thing,even if I find them unappealing...

At least I'd get a kick out of watching butthurt lems damage controlling all over the board :twisted:

Require windows 8?

Ya, that'll sell all of 12 copies.

Halo 4 probably won't sell good either.

Jankarcop
Have you ever played a Halo game? Halo games are designed for both casual and competitive so that means that the game has a huge community unlike games like quake where only the hardcore players are actually playing. If you tried to play anything outside of big team battle then you would see that playlists like the arena/mlg or the older halo games 1 - 50 ranking actually makes it competitive unlike your server based modded pc crap.

Oh I most definitely would because I actually play Quake Live, unlike most of the trolling hermits on SW who probably never laid a finger on Halo.

Quake 3 Arena is what got me into online gaming in the first place, all those years ago.
