The PC version of Halo came out about a year after Halo dropped for the Xbox, which is probably why it was forgotten to exist.

Weird that I don't remember it being poorly optimised. Potentially I had a very recent rig upgrade at the time or it's just rose tinted specs I guess. It was pretty big on PC though, I don't think it slipped under the radar. It had an active and long-lasting competitive scene.

Iron Crowned posted:I don't think it had ever been slated to be an MMOFPS, but I know that they had intended the halo to be one big continuous map with no boundaries, and not broken up into levels. Maybe proto-mmofps is the wrong word? I remember them talking up the idea of getting missions that required a variety of skills, player not character, so you’d want to put together a team of players based on skill leaderboards.

No jokes when I was like five or six for Christmas my grandfather bought me a "Gameboy" which is what he called one of those $2 Tetris games, which he got instead of an actual Gameboy because the shop didn't have any in stock when he went. I remember being super disappointed but my parents raised me well enough not to show it. I played the poo poo out of that Tetris game anyway to be fair.

swordfish duelist posted:I cant tell if you're joking or not and I blame just waking up for my night shift. If the article came out at the time Halo was being talked about for the PC, their idea for Team Fortress II was very different to what it is today. Also, I can't believe no one has mentioned recording games for their C64 off the radio. poo poo was tight in 1984.

Flyinglemur posted:I'm an old person with scrambled brains and I swear you had to boot it with a cassette. I might have been wrong about that but that was definitely the external storage device for my basic programs that used to write LOL. It also had a cartridge game called impossible mission that was bugged at the end and wouldn't let you finish the game. It was my first experience with what would come to be Bethesda gaming. I'm in on the cassette storage derail. My mom found a Texas Instruments 99-4/A at a barn sale when I was a kid. It had a bunch of cartridges with it like "Munch Man" aka the shittest Pacman clone ever. Anyway, it had a code book with it too. With the code for a bunch of the games I didn't have. After I finally figured out a way to tap out an entire game and get it to work (River Raid I think) I realized there was no way to save it. I didn't have the cassette drive. I never got that drive and never bothered to tap out another game either. Got a Colecovision and reveled in arcade quality Donkey Kong goodness.
