  • [quote][b]Posted by:[/b] Wilis_kid I don't think Halo 3 would have been released. The way events happened are like this: Microsoft used Halo 2 as a way of trying to boost sales for Vista and to push its GFWL strategy. However as we all know, Halo 2 Vista was poorly ported, gripped with problems and useless features to enhance gameplay with GFWL like the CD key limit. Add to that trying to charge PC gamers for a service which has always been traditionally free to them with the exception of MMO's and we have a game that PC gamers hate unlike its older brother. As a result of this, M$ have done everything to distance themselves from H2V. They probably think PC gamers don't like Halo because of the poor reception to H2V and probably see no hope for GFWL to even bother trying with Halo 3, let alone Halo 4. It's unlikely we're going to see a Halo title on PC for a while although one can still hope.[/quote] Yeah, you're right. I forgot Halo 2 was an exclusive for Windows Vista. They tried to increase the sales of the new OS with no doubt. But how they thought to be able to give GFWL a push without even releasing Halo 2 Vista in the marketplace? Are they ashamed of it? I agree with you on the fact that Halo 2 wasn't a good porting but do they really care about what people think about it? I think that if a videogame is bought by many people, it doesn't matter if people hate it, they'll make the sequel anyway. Is it because Halo 2 Vista hadn't a great success as Halo 1 with the sales maybe? I don't know how many copies were sold, I am just asking you.
