Halo 2 Q&A - Examining the New District Level

Learn more about the exclusive new urban-combat level that will ship in the PC version of the blockbuster Xbox action game.

When the Windows Vista version of Halo 2 arrives in the coming months, not only will it include all the content that was released for the Xbox version in terms of the original game and the separate multiplayer map pack, but it also will come with some extras. There's a new level editor, along with the ability to earn achievement points over Games for Windows - Live--the Windows Vista version of the popular Xbox Live service--and two new maps built for the PC version.

It's good to see that PC owners will get some new features after the time they've had to wait for it to come out. I like the quote:

"When our team plays large multiplayer games, controller players regularly school the keyboard/mouse players, and vice versa."

Looks like us console familiar players will still have a chance to p4wn the game every now and then! The increased resolution is great and obviously expected on a PC game but it's the Level Editor that should make all us Halo fanboys fulfill our ultimate dreams!

Still, wish they'd increased the quality of the textures though ...

That Multiplayer Map should be available for Xbox 1/360 owners to.

Yeah it would be cool if us Xbox/Xbox 360 owners could get the new PC map, but we are getting the two new maps that Bungie recently announced (if we pay), so although not perfect, it is a fair compromise.

Better than nothing hey! :)

Don't you think?,many Halo fans(Including me) have played the sh*t out of Halo 1 and 2 and are hyped up about how great Halo 3 will be,I think this move should have been made last year!

Halo still rocks!,Halo 3 continue the greatest dynasty ever!!!!!

Review - A Difficult Game About Climbing (PC) | WayTooManyGames

WTMG's Leo Faria: "A Difficult Game About Climbing is obviously frustrating, and I don’t exactly think it’s a fun pasttime, but it’s exponentially more enjoyable than the horrendous Getting Over It With Bennett Foddy. It’s actually beatable with enough trial and error. Its mechanics, whilst not exactly polished to the brim, work as intended, with no intentional input lag. It’s still clearly meant for Let’s Play youtubers to film themselves losing their minds over it, but it can still be a passable challenge if you’re up for the task."

Review - New Star GP (PC) | WayTooManyGames

WTMG's Leo Faria: "I loved that New Star GP ended up being nothing like what I was expecting from it. I thought I was going to get a simple and straightforward love letter to Virtua Racing, only for it to be something more akin to the best F1 racing games from the mid to late 90s, with a perfect blend of accessible physics and simulation elements. New Star GP is adorably retro in its visuals and vibes, but it’s got some surprising amount of depth and an interesting career mode. A little hidden gem in the racing scene, without a doubt."
