    I'd venture to say that the console and computer game markets are different (and lucrative) enough for Halo to warrant a console AND computer release.

    I hope you're right but I will believe it only when I see it. X-Box right because it is new has to create a bridgepoint to enter the market. Bungie acquisition will be that bridge.

    Since when companies bought by Microsoft have been free to continue to release products for other platforms/OS ?

    don't be too quick to jump on the bandwagon trumpeting this as the death of Mac gaming (or of Bungie games for the PC -- there's a vocal group that's convinced all future Bungie titles will be X-box only).

    Even Bungie is evasive about the big question for Mac users:

    Q. What happens to the existing PC/Mac versions of Halo?

    A. The development team has a ton of options to consider. They may choose to concentrate on one platform, to bring the game to every platform under the sun, or something in between. As of this writing we simply don’t know what the answer will be. We cannot promise that a Windows or Mac version of Halo will ship, but we can't rule it out either.

    Let me rephrase the real meaning of that reply: The development team has an option to consider which weights a ton: concentrate on one platform: X-Box.

There are no guarantees, but I'd be surprised if Bungie doesn't continue to make great games for Mac, PC AND X-box. Bungie is going to retain a lot of their independence

    Don't hold your breath for a Mac version of Halo or any other Bungie title. Microsoft did not purchase Bungie so that its Xbox could compete with other platforms.

    This move is on the line with Microsoft own "continuing quest for innovation".

  4. Hi there,

    just happened to me. Stationary Stug, 2 moving Shermans, one stationary.

    Result: 1 Stug alive 3 Sherman kaputt.

    Stug commander has dinner tonite at ReichStag with Adolph in person!

    I was really impressed. In total Stug fire 5 shots: all, I mean ALL hit their targets. Two Shermans were first damaged then finished.

    Stug hit once: ricochet.

    Lady luck was with the Germans this time.

    Wow, thanks for the replies.

    Did not expect such a fast and friendly response. Now I am really glad I invested in the game. I have told 2 others about this and hopefully we will all get into it.

    I have played the demo for about 30 mins and that sold me.

    Thx

    Hi Jonp. Wow that was slow smile.gif

    I was hooked the first minute biggrin.gif

  6. Manieri: what do you mean you were kidding? That looked a perfectly reasobale plan to follow!

    Anyway: I played the Beta of CC4 and it is not really that great. especially the look and feel and the gamish treatment of all moves/command.

    When CM Gold came out I failed to download it because I though: YAAWNN CC4 got Gold. I could not care less!!!

    Then I realized CC4 was not matching letters with Comabt Missions and the screenshots were: WOW nothing from CC series one could ever imagine.

    I am glad I downloaded the Gold and now ordered the game. Just glad. If they'd shut down at CC# I would not even realize it wink.gif
