First Halo trailer ever made that was shown was meant for Apple...

I've never heard anybody complain about Halo before so, what's a list of problems with the game and the platform? What are the best games/platforms out right now and why - what makes them so great?
I still play Halo PC version because it's still MORE FUN than many new games I've played. I like being able to quickly get into a game, play hard & have fun and get out when I'm done. I've had loads of trouble with new games that make it far to complex and complicated just trying to login, get set-up and get the damn game started - so i never play them.
Now, I can understand why people wouldn't want the 10 year old Halo platform but, that's not what I'm talking about - I'm talking about a new platform for an older game to improve game play and performance with many improvements. I don't see how anybody could turn that down - the anti-Halo peeps don't need to ruin for everybody else though.
New Halo PC version suggestions:
1. No team killing or betraying. It would be nice if that were no longer an issue. I've been banned just for accidents.
2. It would be great if we could still use weapons/grenades while holding the flag in CTF.
3. In the PC version - please stop repeatedly respawning in the worst possible areas only to die immediately like 10 times in a row. Or at least give 5 seconds of invincibility.
4. Would like to have more than just two weapons at a time.
5. Remove the dumb "suicide" thing and make weapons go right through teammates instead of killing me and calling it suicide.
6. Please improve the handling of the vehicles.
7. Please include a sprint function.
8. Make it compatible on the XBox controller.
Just wondered if anybody had any good thoughts on this?

Pretty much all terrible.
1.make the game more casual for me
2.make the game more casual for me
3.make the game more casual for me
4. weapons are balanced for only holding 2 weapons. like the plasma gun charge combo with rifle headshot.
5.make the game more casual for me
6.make the game more casual for me and even more boring
7.Worst addition to the series as it made melee kills extremely easy to obtain as you have quite a bit of health in halo. Close quarters battles were essentially ruined because of this.
8.why?
FTFY
Got it, you're a prick who hates everybody and everything and has forgotten what fun is.
This is a "console fps gamer" mentality and a "pc fps gamer" mentality. (note: I grew up playing console games just as much as pc) You clearly did not begin your gaming experience with the aforementioned titles, classics, that Halo is at-best a shadow of. Halo is a great console fps, but that in itself is a bit of a joke, largely due to the controls. Beyond that, there are the maps, which in many of the classics were made for competition, balance, and complexity first and then aesthetics second. Halo has a few that are largely homages to these classics, but the majority are just sections of the single player campaign, or just "this looks pretty, go kill people in it". As far as decisions about regen'ing health, weapon limits, jump/movement behavior; that is where you'll find much more broadness/leniency in opinion around here.
Considering Halo is a fanfucking tastic universe and given 100x the budget and attention that most PC shooters.. Yes bring it on.
Nah man, Halo 1 on the PC was a big portion of my teen years. It was fun as hell doing an 8 on 8 team deathmatch.
Yea cause no other game has used ideas from other games or books. Also the setting was more from Orbital that from Ringworld .
OK so we can agree that the whole idea of Ringworld was probably based on the Dyson sphere, and the Dyson sphere was probably based on even earlier mentions of such.Which was likely based on Ringworld (as it came out 17 years before). Buuut, more compelling evidence is that they asked the Ringworld author to write the novel.
It was more the point it was just a junk version of something else, dumbed down severely (and with the more adult elements removed) features nothing original so could hardly be "fantastic".
Do you want a port of a turd for the sake of having the port?
No?
Us neither is the point.
First,why would I pay for a rehash of a game that already had a PC version?
Who doesn't want a port of a game if the other option is to have nothing at all?
[H]ardForum, where logic comes to die.
Simple reason I'd rather play it the way it is now without the elitist crowd that is voting no right here.

Why do you think people that don't want a game would be playing it?
I would agree with the other poster that side Planetside 2 is the "pc" Halo. They have a very similar feel and look, though I stopped playing PS2 because the infantry vs vehicle balance was a bit silly and node-zerging was becoming a problem.
