Show me one time when Bungie said they would support cross-platform play. One single time. Go ahead, show me.
He probably was thinking of when Microsoft mentioned cross-platform games in general, not Halo 2. There will be games where you can play with your buddy in the next room...

haha. I think you failed to realize I was being sarcastic in the first place :P

EDIT* I added the roll eyes for anyone else that doesn't catch it.

No... I was going along with your sarcasm. If I hadn't picked it up, the comment would have been something like "No shit."

Now it's not fun, because we had to go through this explanation. :(

Umm, Having a comuter in one room and a 360 in the other?

I thought you of all people could figure that out, Tural.

I thought that is what you were saying, but I assumed you knew that was false.

Halo 2 Vista does not support any cross-platform at all. No system link, no Live. It will only be able to play with other PCs.

It bugs me like hell. It would be a good thing and a bad thing. Good thing to have cross-platform games (different prices between a gaming computer and an XBOX/360).

Another thing is that it would be easy to mod H2Vista.

Bump and that had absolutely nothing to do with the topic.
Also, Elites are much harder to shoot from behind than a Spartan is.

There would be no reason for those things in MP; and Elites are just gay to play, story-wise I think they are bad@$$!

Have you never played Halo 2? Nor seen videos of it? Nor even heard about it?
