Halo PC FAQ Updated, Developers Interviewed

Thanks to several people for pointing out that the official Halo PC FAQ at Bungie.net has been updated. This relatively new FAQ includes info on a playable demo ("shortly after the game is released") and Mac version ("..in the capable hands of our friends at MacSoft and Westlake Interactive.. scheduled for a near simultaneous release with the PC version"), as well as previously-released info such as PC multiplayer-exclusive Fuel Rod Guns and Rocket Launcher Warthogs. In related news, Shacknews put out an interview with Gearbox president Randy Pitchford a couple of days back, offering a bunch of extra information on the PC debut of this originally-for-PC title.

  1. Split Screen by funkhauser · · Score: 3, Insightful
    Halo multiplayer is just fantastic, and I'm sure it'll be great on the PC as well, but sitting in the dark at your computer seeing lame morons type "H4 H4. I 0WNZ0R3D J00!!!" over and over again just can't beat sitting in front of the TV with your buds playing split screen Halo. There's always the LAN party aspect, but I'd rather have four people bring four XBoxes than 16 people bring 16 computers to play 8 on 8 team games on Sidewinder with all the vehicles on. :)

  2. Rocket Launcher Warthogs? by etherlad · · Score: 3, Funny

    Rocket Launcher Warthogs, eh? Is that like Warthogs with rocket launchers, or rocket launchers that launch Warthogs?

    Damn, would I buy that game.
