Just to be up front, I don't have a Mac right now. However, at some point I will again.



Halo multi-player remains one of my favorite games. Albeit in HaloCE form. My son has an XBox and Halo 1 and 2. We were doing a few rounds of Halo 2 and the poll popped up in my mind. I'm comfortable with either gamepads or KB+mouse control. I find the mouse to be a tighter control for a FPS.



Halo 2 has superior graphics and more vehicle and weapon options. Big however, the "gameplay/feel" is better on Halo 1 for PC/Mac IMHO. To top it off, HaloCE has an edge over the regular Halo Combat Evolved for PC/Mac.



The poll is geared towards multi-player online or LAN.



You know Microsoft loved it when they were able to buy Bungie and divert this classic game to the XBox first.

    i prefer xbox halo 1. the pistol is my gun, and halo 2 took away my scope and some power.

    The pistol's strength was just stupid. Yeah, it was you're favorite weapon. You were so good with it. That's because it was overpowered. Duh.



    I haven't really played enough Halo 2 to make any judgments, but if they could fix all the pop-in and texture glitches with a PC/Mac release, I think it'd be my favorite.

    For HaloCE, the pistol was rebalanced against the other weapons. So it wasn't as overpowering. Still a great weapon but now requires more skill.



    The one question I forgot to ask, how many Mac-heads are still playing the demo?
