    very sad how far this topic went. It doesnt matter if halo wars is for for pc. we'll just have to wait to ind out. »_«

    I don't know how many times I'll have to say this. This thread is not about deciding what it should come out for, it is for discussing why it is coming out exclusively for Xbox 360.

    I am with you on this one Rotaretilbo... It was Ensemble's decision for which platform it was being designed, not the user community...  The whole decision was most probably based on the fact that Halo was a console based game, so Halo Wars will go the same route... Nothing against PC's, awesome machines, but there is already a vast range of games available for them, so why not allow us to have one as well? Just seems fair, and you will get a port of the game in a couple of months as well, so be patient... :)

    This is stupid why can't he halo wars be for computer.  I mean come on all real-time strategy games are always for computer why can't he'll be like that.  Whoever thinks that halo wars should be for computer should be posting on the site if not your a Total loser.  Also as kind of unfair because some people don't have Xbox 360.  Because we may now have Xbox 360 but I have this amazing computer and I can't do anything about it.  Hey don't take my word for maybe if we become a group we could fight for this so it can't be on PC.

    if they did all that it wouldnt sell xbox 360. there are guys that are getting xboxes (microsofts console) just to play halo games (microsofts franchise), and this is one halo game. end of discussion, there was no need to make it 6 pages long. one day it might come out for pc, but who knows?

    You're post is anchored to mine (meaning you clicked the reply button above my post). Did you actually read my post though? I just got done explaining that we weren't discussing what it should be for, but why the decision that was made was made. There is a subtle (read rather obvious) difference.

    Might take more than a couple months, but I do expect that eventually, whether ES or some other third party does so, there will likely be a port to PC. The main reason they stuck with one system is because making a game for multiple systems at once is more difficult, meaning that sacrafices have to be made, resulting in a watered down version. However, the reason they chose Xbox 360 over PC is likely due to the fact that Halo has, thus far, always launched for an Xbox console as well as because ES wanted to take a stab at console RTS (if they are successful, they will become rather popular...and thus far, I'm pretty sure they'll be successful).

    Oh, and welcome to the forums.

    Actually, if it released for both systems (Xbox 360 and PC), it would likely sell very well for both, because there aren't too many people with PCs capable of running Halo Wars efficiently. However, as stated before, making the game for both systems would result in a watered down version, which none of us want.

    Re: Why can't Halo wars be for computer

    srry, press entered.  Welcome to the forums!  If you read the FAQ, it says its an Xbox 360 EXCLUSIVE; which means that its only for the xbox.  although, it may come out on the PC in like 5 years

    No! Bad Spartan262! You don't say that to these nice people! Use you manners! Don't use that foul language in this forum, child!


    Exitus acta probat: the result justifies the deed, or, more commonly, the ends justify the means

    ooooh how does that apply to the Halo Wars campaign?

     Also...watch you're spelling.  That typo (if it is a typo.  If it isn't you are contradicting yourself) make sit sound like you don't want it to be on computer.

     

    P.S. I know i am resurrecting a thread that i shouldn't be.  I am just really bored, and that typo was too funny to resist pointing out.

    People, people, people. Halo Wars IS going to come out for the PC. It'll be out about six years after it is released for the 360. Deal with it.
