[quote][b]WARNING[/b]: This thread contains knit-picking. What I say about what people have said might be a case of me looking too deeply into things but it's something that has irritated me for several years now. I do not mean any offense to anyone. (Specifically DeeJ which I think is a pretty cool guy.)[/quote] As many of you know, Halo: Combat Evolved PC has seemed to be completely over looked by the rest of the Halo community. That's mainly do to the fact people see Halo as the Xbox powerhouse game. It was the thing that introduced aim assist which to many made console first person shooters feasible and, for all intents and purposes, made the Xbox relevant in the power struggle between the rest of the consoles that generation. There is one casualty of this feeling that seems to get no break after all these years. That casualty is Halo: Combat Evolved for the PC. Whenever anyone talks about the first time Halo was an online experience, they seem to always mention Halo 2 even though Halo: Combat Evolved was doing it one year before it. (it's also worth note that Xbox Connect was around before Halo 2's release as well) As someone who loves the [i]hell[/i] out of this game, it's always irritated me to see/hear people say that. There's also another thing many people have stated over the years that is on the same level as this. It's possibly even worse in my opinion. A recent example came from the article DeeJ wrote while recapping his [url=http://www.bungie.net/News/Blog.aspx?mode=news#cid32077]ride along with "Blueprint"[/url]: [quote]"It was innovations in the development of Halo 3 that first put the hammer and anvil in the hands of our community." - DeeJ[/quote] While this is true for the Xbox side of things, we on the PC side have had the hammer and anvil in our hands since 2004 with Custom Edition. We've had a [i]much better[/i] hammer and anvil in which we've created [i]many[/i] master pieces over the years with. In fact, you had the ability to create maps in Marathon even before that though I think he means the Halo community specifically. While this is surely me knit picking, I can't help but feel slightly offended that most of the Halo community seems to forget Halo: Combat Evolved PC like this. How do you guys feel about this? Is this something that purely doesn't matter or is it something that gets under your skin as well? Should Halo PC get more recognition than it does? Should it be set aside and forgotten? Will Timmy get out of the well in time before he dies of hunger? [Edited on 04.05.2012 6:20 PM PDT]
