I've been looking at the release dates for the halo franchise.

Haloce xbox: Nov 2001
Haloce PC: Sep 2003

Halo 2 xbox: Nov 2004
Halo 2 Vista: May 2007

Halo 3 xbox360: Sep 2007
Halo 3 ODST: Q4 2009

There are several patterns to notice here.
1. A PC port is released roughly 26 months after console released. So, we might be getting one some time late 2009 or early 2010! (Very close to Halo 3 ODST's current release date).
2. A PC port is released slightly before the newest console sequel. Does this mean that we'll be getting Halo 3 PC before Halo 3 ODST? Hmmmm.... Keep in mind, that Halo 2 Vista was anounced several months AFTER Halo 3's release.

All in all, KEEP YOUR FINGERS CROSSED!!!. I suggest we continue
talking/badgering/spamming about a Halo 3 PC on all forums (especialy Bungie) to show them what their fans want.
If there's one thing that can bring us Halo 3 PC is the MODDING COMMUNITY! Mod's like
CMT SPV2 and H3MT show that the Halo PC community is alive and kicking. All we need to do is remind them that we're still here. I believe that both mod's releases could be the trigger for a new Halo PC game!

Don't forget this opens new opportunitys for more people learning how to code programs and applications :P

CoD series is trash lol.

agreed^ the fith is ok.. though atleast its better then 4.

Halo 3 for PC will be bad if it doesn't have a decent map editor unlike Halo2vista.

if halo 3 pc only has forge mode i will not buy it, because i want to be able to what i am doing with haloCE on halo3

Wow are you a dumbass? I posted this twice last year.

actualy i am addicted to tons of game cod just is trash.

idk i like the graphics but agree with weapons and also there is no vehicles in cod4 lol im a vehicle addict

Forge gets boring after you play it the first 10 times. Although the fact that people can still play as you spawn objects is pretty cool. Still, it should've had more features such as daytime settings, possibly ai spawning with team settings, or just even ragdolls (like from Garrys Mod)

No. Just..no.

what would be the point of ragdolls? thats what bipeds are for and in h3 im sure bipeds would be just a scenary object that doesnt move. Ai would be nice! and if you could make maps and then use forge to edit and put your own custom objects i then i would like it!

If it would be for Vista only it would fail...

And on the seventh day, God rested.


Haloce xbox: Nov 2001
+2 years
Haloce PC: Sep 2003

Halo 2 xbox: Nov 2004
+3 years
Halo 2 Vista: May 2007

Halo 3 xbox360: Sep 2007
+2 years
Halo 3 ODST: Q4 2009

2+3+2 = 7

Coincidence?

yeah!!!!

Nugget, that would mean Bungie is done with Halo, ending with a 7. You better tell that to Bungie if they haven't known/planned that already so they don't ruin it by releasing Halo 3 PC :P

that would be 3/4th of the people on this "HCE" forum adel

just stop posting here this is HCE forum

i did thats why im talking to you

get back on topic please as in back to talking about halo 3 coming to pc not cod

anyway I think theres a 60 percent possibility that halo 3 might come but there is the 40 percent that it wont

LOL you think halo custom edition will ever die! It will be a couple of years (maybe like 4-5) because everyone playing halo PC will be playing halo CE then (there arre roughly around 645-678 servers on halo PC) So halo CE will live for a very long time. Also if halo 3 comes to pc it will most probalby not have a map editor because then peopel would make mods of the weapons if they arent allowed to make new weapons and be tons of mods (bungie doe snot like mods at all!) and besides bungie does not want people using there tags :/ . So halo 3 probably when it comes to pc if it comes to pc proly wont have a map editor except for forge! Why not just buy the console version and mod the console and the ROM of halo 3 to accpet new map BSPS and maps? I have done it with a mod chip and without getting banned!

The chances it's going to come with a map maker are slim... the chances it's comming with a map editor (forge... har) are 100%

(it's so hard switching from another forum to here... not gonna say what forum though... I don't want to be ridicueled for no aparent reason because people listen to the stereotypes and not the group as a whole.)

people make good enough textures in the newer games dont ehy but yah i know

Contrary to popular belief... Halo 3 doesn't have all too many Valhala mods... most are on Foundary

i dont know anyone that mods valhala at all actualy lol i know i dont

Second to bloodgulch mods = coagulation. And I am attempting to overrun CE with beavercreek mods >:)

Battle Creek. It's that original Bungie-made map that's smaller than Blood Gulch, and has bigger bases.

he's playing stupid. just ignore his posts.

then i suggest just having a more advanced forge system, with more objects and Ai

just having a big open room would be nice also, screw foundry

If they don't put a good editing kit, I am not buying. Or if it requires vista. Also forge sucks because its like an even lamer version of an editing kit; not even allowing for new level models or any of the fun part of mapping.

About your CoD bashing, CoD is fun, especially CoD 4. I never really got into the multiplayer, but its campaign is awesome.

Also, Halo CE is not going to die because of Halo 3 PC. That is because a lot of the people here do not have computers that can run many of the brand new games, and Halo 3 PC would be require a better computer than those even.

Sandbox. :)

I'd take a Far-Cry Instincts style level editor over a Forge-like level editor.


At least you get to make a custom level rather than just mod it.

Actually forge CAN be just as good as a editing kit (If you vould mod forge it would be even better what i mean by thta push it's limits spawn ai and parts of BSP). You can make incredible maps on foundry the pit highground and any map on halo 3 it's alot of fun to see what you can make. the reason bungie probably doesn't want to have a editing kit for it is because two things forge is exactly like one and they already made one (forge) and two if youi were making a map it would be very hard because you have two make two variants of it a .map variant and a forge variant.

.... Methinks that you are going to be the one banned. He would never have started getting this mad had you not come around and... (insert word here)

It depends on how you make the textures. Who cares about custom bipeds? Valhalla mods, pshhh, I would rather mod Epitaph and make it BETTER then what it currently is.
