I think what the poster is saying about Halo is that it was originally designed for the Mac & PC, I believe, and then Microsoft bought out Bungie and made Halo for the Xbox. Old school PC gamers will remember that Bungie had made strong headway into the PC community with the Myth games and Halo was really exciting a lot of folks way back when.Mariena post=9.72837.775129 said:Halo 1 for the PC came about 2 years later than the xbox version... :/number2301 post=9.72837.774913 said:To the above - Halo for one.
If PC Gaming is in bed with piracy now what's the difference with console gaming? Most people I know who have consoles use pirated games.

Err, where did this come from? I saw no one implying this.Geo Da Sponge post=9.72837.775518 said:Oh come on, there are hordes of games on other consoles which never got ported to PC, but all it takes is the possibillity of a proper Xbox 360 exclusive and everyone has to have a sulk. Apparently having to get over any problems in your platform is a thing of the past. I mean, when I see a good PC exclusive I don't whine about how they should make a port, or how thedy could make a port. I enjoy the PC as a gaming platform and all, but I don't see when it was decided that it had to get the best of everything or else it's just not fair.
No kidding. Nobody is complaining about it dude, chill out. I would like to play Fable 2 on the PC, but if it never happens I'm fine with that too. It looks like it will be good, but not good enough to buy a 360, so I'll just wait and see.ElArabDeMagnifico post=9.72837.775807 said:Err, where did this come from?

black and white
..umm what else did they make?
Yes but there's a problem with that, eventually other file providers and torrent sites will just upload the patches.Ozu08865 post=9.72837.774721 said:We all know the Piracy and PC gaming are roommates nowadays. I for one never pirate anything off the internet I dont trust it. I dont know why companies just dont follow Stardock model of business and only offer patchs and support to people who own a valid CD Key. Stardock is the only publisher who forgoes copy protection.
Yeah, sorry about that, bit of a rage overdose. I just feel as if a few people are suggesting that Fable 2 has to have a port to PC, and if it doesn't it's because Peter Moloneux is being an idiot. I'm all for sharing exclusives around (I'm not that much of a scrooge), but it is being suggested that PC gamers shouldn't have to wait. It seems that some PC gamers (no names mentioned) have grown used to gaining any game which comes out for Xbox 360, and the fact that an entire thread was created to ask whether or not it is coming out is testament to this.KSarty post=9.72837.775837 said:No kidding.
