"With the acquisition, Microsoft also acquires the full publishing rights to Halo. Microsoft's Bungie Studio will soon be converting the title to the X-Box, Microsoft's upcoming next-generation console, while Mac and PC versions are currently undecided."

NOW I'M PISSED!!!

now thats a piece of f ucking shi t! There will be hell to pay for Microsoft if they take away the PC version (and the mac). They would lose some much money if they do that. Looks like a petition is in order /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif /infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif

well, thats not going to happen. Halo will almost certainly remain on the PC. Being as the demo's have all been for the PC(by their resolutions). As well as the XBox's similarities to PC's. They are a little more optimized for gameplay, but still very similar.

I'm sure whatever makes MS the most money will be what is ultimately done.

News on Micosoft take over

/infopop/emoticons/icon_mad.gif I will never recover from this.
Perhaps minimicrosoft will be split up again when the US gov. thinks they have too much power in the gaming industry...... /infopop/emoticons/icon_biggrin.gif

I seriously doubt that Microsoft would cancel the PC (or Mac) version of Halo. If they did, they'd have to call in the National Guard to protect them from the multitude of enraged Bungie fans which would undoubtedly attempt to assassinate Bill Gates.

[Bad.Mojo]

I'm not very upset about it at all. I'm upset that Microsoft has began building another empire out of the ashes of their old one, but something to MS's credit is they make some fu cking kick-ass games, and considering they make the OS they run on, they rarely have crippling bugs.

The latest report that I heard for Halo was that the X-box version will be released first, followed by the PC version soon after that. The entire point of Microsux aquiring Bungie was to get their greedy little hands on Halo for the X-box.

But if Halo PC is not published SOON after Halo X-box...

*shudders to think how ugly the second battle of seattle will be*

Interesting, eh, how Microsux has to aquire companies to work on its next-gen console while Sony has to deploy flame-thrower squads to beat back game developers?

Fortuanetly Oni appears to unscathed and PC, PS2 and Mac(?) will soon be released this year.

ya, here is a quote about that:

"Meanwhile, Oni, currently in the latter half of development at Bungie's West Coast studio based in San Jose, Ca., will be published for the Mac and PC by Gathering of Developers, a wholly owned subsidiary of Take Two Interactive. The Playstation 2 version of Oni will be published by Take Two Interactive's RockStar Games. Take Two Interactive gave up their 19.9% stake in Bungie Software for the full publishing rights to Oni, publishing rights to the Myth series as well as two royalty-licenses for games using the Halo engine. Future Myth games will likely be developed by a third-party game development studio and will be published for the Mac and PC by Gathering of Developers. "

that is the only good news... /infopop/emoticons/icon_frown.gif
