And I'm sorry eugene but have you ever stopped to wonder why you've never met a PC gamer who thinks Halo is special? Did you ever wonder why the game ranks a 70% on PC while it's over 90% on the Xbox despite the PC version having more features? It's obviously not some hatred of it not being on our console since both Halo and Halo 2 are available on PC.

It's because they are simply years behind PC FPS games. We've been playing games like System Shock 2, Half-Life series, Unreal Tournament series, Quake series, etc. for years. A full decade before the release of Halo 2 PC FPSes were offering more complex gameplay and a better, much more fleshed out, online system. We STILL have a better online system through Steam for absolutely free along with a better digital distribution system than Xbox Live has.

In fact, Microsoft is now trying to encroach on us with their bullshit Windows Live crap that no one is buying because it's absolutely ridiculous to expect PC users to pay $50 a year for far less features than we get with Steam for free. Halo is a great CONSOLE FPS series, but it simply doesn't offer anything for PC gamers that we can't get better elsewhere. I think Halo 3 is a great shooter... for the 360.  Just like I think Metroid Prime Hunters is a great shooter for the Nintendo DS.  It's great for the platform it's on, but it's just not comparable to games on the PC.
