So what's the deal with all of the PS fans replying? Do you guys have any idea what's even going on with Microsoft and Windows Phone 8?

Since it was a gaming question, I thought I'd bring it up here but it seems like not many here are as well versed in what's going on with WP8. Maybe I should take this to neoGAF or maybe just stick with WP communities such as wpcentral. :(

mmm..ok

I think hardcore gaming (HALO) is not a priority for smartphones, nor tablets.  I think Halo is a franchise to complex to be developed for a cellphone without being compromised negatively while doing so.   Considering that, I think that the directX support will be for more graphical apps, like "3D Bing MAPS" for example; like the ones of apple.

I dont think M$ will ever develop a Halo game for smarphones. maybe an app for the smartglass thing, but not a full Halo game.  If they want to create games, they need games made having in mind the userbase; and those people dont like to spend more than $5 for a game.  Those users want casual and cheap games.  You can not have a true gaming experience on a phone nor tablet, due to how people interact with the device and which are the user´s interests.  If they want Halo they would have bought a 360.
