Halo 3 PC was in Development with the Xbox 360 Version?

360 News from N4G | Halo 3

360 - Halo 3 - Halo 3 PC was in Development with the Xbox 360 Version?

The first Halo was being developed for the personal computer (Mac to be precise) before it jumped ship onto the Xbox. Halo 2 followed a similar suit and was tagged as being one of the first games to be available for Windows Vista. Halo 3 was rumored to fall in the footsteps along with its predecessors and make an appearance onto the platform, however it never did.

This, however, might just be subject to change after you have a look at "Matt Waggle" who served as an object artist for Bungie Studios during the project. His duties included working on Halo 3 which was being developed for the Xbox 360 and PC at that point in time.

Halo 3 Multiplayer Servers Will Survive Halo Reach's Launch

360 News from N4G | Halo 3

360 - Halo 3 - Halo 3 Multiplayer Servers Will Survive Halo Reach's Launch

Kotaku: Once Halo Reach hits, bringing with it a brand new multiplayer experience and separate servers, does that mean Halo 3's multiplayer servers will be shut down?

"I dont think we would pull the plug," said Brian Jarrard, Bungie's community director. "Halo 2 was the number one game until the Halo 3 lauch, and it was still supported until this April.

"I think it would be safe to say we wouldn't be investing so much time into doing massive matchmaking updates and then just turn (Halo 3 online support) off and walk away from it.

"Will we hope that people will migrate to Reach because it represents all of the good things from Halo 3 but better and more so? Sure, but I guarantee that there are hardcore gamers, like the pros who make their livelihoods off of playing Halo 3, who might take awhile to move over.

"I cant imagine a world where Halo Reach and Halo 3 don't coexist."

Bungie Explains If Halo Reach Is More of an ODST or a Halo 3 Game

360 News from N4G | Halo 3

360 - Halo 3 - Bungie Explains If Halo Reach Is More of an ODST or a Halo 3 Game

Brian Crecente from Kotaku writes: When Halo 3 hit in the fall of 2007 there were celebrations, sick days and sales records broken. Two years later, when Halo sequel ODST made it into stores it couldn't match its predecessor's first day sales in two weeks.

So I asked the Bungie folks, is Halo Reach going to be more like a Halo 3 or a Halo ODST?

Before answering Brian Jarrard, Bungie's community director, gave me his take on why ODST wasn't the overwhelming success Halo 3 was.

"I felt ODST was more of niche game, it was a little bit of an experiment," Jarrard said. "We didn't have to stay tried and true to the Halo formula."
