    Re: PC <---> XBox Playability

    I say wait for H2V/Vista to come out, then look around for Monitor, you never now what you might find, but I think if you get a multi Media Monitor that will help with the looks, but it is up to you, but any whys, I maybe buy Vista, or I may get it from my dad's work, I don't know yet, but I do know that the Home one, the smallest one is like $150 or something, I'll find the site that tell's me.
    Edit | Found it, here you go,
    Microsoft's suggested retail pricing: $399 for Windows Vista Ultimate, $299 for Windows Vista Business, $239 for Windows Vista Home Premium, and $199 for Windows Vista Home Basic.
    Upgrades to Windows Vista from XP are going to be $259 for Windows Vista Ultimate, $199 for Windows Vista Home Premium, and $99 for Windows Vista Home Basic.
    I think I'm going to get the Windows Vista Home Premium, or if I can I'll get the Windows Vista Ultimate, if I save up, I'll have the money to buy Halo 2 and windows Vista when they come out.

    I've managed to lose my current Windows install disks, and MS is wanting me to pay an outlandish fee to replace them. I said I might as well buy the Vista Ultimate full if that's the case and well, that's what I'm going to do, I guess.

    A reason Bungie and XBL probaly would'nt let you play against XBox player is beacuse of XBL. Why should Xbox players have to pay to play the game online while the PC player will not have to?

    Well if you think about it, we pay for Internet right? Well that is our fee we have to pay to Play Halo 2 Vista MP, and for some of us it is up grading to that level of a Computer that can run Vista and Halo 2 Vista.

    People who play XBox online also pay for internet now don't they. Besides even if they buy Vista you still had to buy the Xbox Console didn't you?

    For example; Adelphia Bill for XBoX - $30 + $6 (Monthly)
    Adelphia Bill for H2V - $30

    It won't happen, Bungie already said so in one of their updates.

    It'd be cool, though.

    ya, but I still think that people who play Halo 2 Xbox will start playing Halo 2 Vista because of the amount of new things that will be in there, and unlike Halo, you can have a Game pad to use.

    Im pretty sure unless the player is very skill the average console controller gamer would be destroyed by a keyboard based player anyway.

    Re: PC <---> XBox Playability

    One of my most hated questions I get from people really. No, H2V players will not be able to play with Xbox players. Common sense? Yeah. They're changing the values on PC and adding new content. Also:

    http://gbxforums.gearboxsoftware.com...ad.php?t=58072

    Q: Will Halo 2 Vista players be able to play against Halo 2 Xbox players?

    A: No, Halo 2 Vista players will only be able to [play] against Vista owners.
