well i actually think h1pc was a great game, and i still play it from time to time. peak times (8-2 est) there are usually around 1,000-1,500 players online, lots of regulars... ive yet to see a multiplayer game match halo1 for control and fun... and with the new sightjacker for h1pc (imega.therevisited.com) its much much better cuz bots are easily spotted.

as opposed to h2v with at most 50 players. but, if everyone that actually bought h2v actually played it somewhat regularly thered be thousands. i'm guessing most ppl had a similar 2 day experience with h2v like i did.

I played the multi on it for maybe 2 days... my tolerance for the 'press x to delay' was short lived. thats all it took for me.

DO NOT BUY ANY WINDOWS LIVE GAME!!!
