Lawlz I'd be surprised if it came to PC. Although I guess Halo 2 was the last Halo game to come out on PC, I wouldn't hold my breath though.

Sounds great! I hope its a good balance between Halo 3 and 4s multiplayer.

Oh man, don't do this to me! I want Halo 5 this year...


I don't think there's much chance of that happening at all anymore tbh.

I mean I would love to see it as well but given all evidence points towards it being delayed I'm not counting on it.

Personally I think MS wants Halo 5 to be their leading graphical showcase on the X1 and won't settle for anything less than 1080p / 60fps on it.  The whole "resolutiongate" has been blowing up lately and I think MS wants to prove they can have an amazing looking title running 1080p, 60.  I'm betting the original plan was 60fps with 900p or something and after resolutiongate broke out they decided to delay the game and further polish it.

Next gen visuals and Halo 5 beta key rumors would be amazing if true.....but I have personal hopes that they drop a bombshell and add a final level to the campaign, thus re-writing history and giving it a proper ending.


This is the ONE change that I would actually love.  If they added one more level at the end of the campaign to actually........well......give the game an ending.  Would be much better than the massive cut off Halo 2's campaign ended with.

Bungie litteraly ran out of time to finish the game, as long as the level was solid and didn't break any lore than yeah I would be ok with this change.

i wanna say that the leaker said they were adding things to sp but i could be mistaken

Should sell very well if it happens.

Wonder if this has any chance of being on PC cause if it does, I would buy it day 1


Or you could just, you know, buy an Xbox One.

As much as I would love to pay $450 + $60 (xbl) for an HD remake... No thanks! I would rather spend that money on something else like a new sex doll

Don't get me wrong, I totally get it. But first it's The Witcher 3, then it's Halo 5. Why can't the delays just stop?!

E3 can't come any sooner, we haven't seen anything related to the exclusives that are supposed to release this year, so frustrating -_-

I don't want to start a console war thingy here but I am kinda tired of people wanting PC versions of mainline Halo games. It ain't gonna happen anymore. MS sees that their Xbox brand needs its flagship IP to remain exclusive.

It is like asking Uncharted and Last of US to get PC releases. Yes guys I am aware MS has more PC ties but the principle remains.



Xbox: Best hardware, Game Pass best value, best BC, more 1st party genres and multiplayer titles.
