Question

Halo Master Chief Collection...on PC?

Seems so and it's even going to be on Steam.... very interesting change of direction by Microsoft.

The PC version of Halo: MCC will come in stages, with each game released individually, in chronological order, rather than all of them together in one big bundle. That means Halo: Reach will be first, followed by Combat Evolved, Halo 2, Halo 3, Halo 3: ODST (Campaign), and Halo 4. 343 Industries said that staggered scheduled will enable it to ensure that each game is "right"—emphasis theirs—with PC-standard features including FOV sliders, 4K resolution and ultrawide monitor support, adjustable framerates, and remappable keys. Beyond their initial launch, the games will "evolve and grow over time with community input," Microsoft said.

    The MCC on the XBX is just fantastic looking on a big 4k HDR tv, so i assume all the same updates and features will be in the PC version, assuming PC owners have 4k HDR monitors, i use a 43in 4k HDR monitor for my PC but HDR on the PC seems to be a mixed bag and is not as straight cut as the consoles make it.....but 4k alone in the MCC is worth the price, it should even look good for those still playing on old ancient 1080p screens. ;)

    Halo PC ( also known as custom edition due to map support ) was very well done. Spent years playing it even beta tested a lot of other ppls creations. Yoyorast Island, Wartorn Cove 1 2 3....loads of fun even though I sucked at it....until I got a rocket launcher or a tank...then EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING died. LMAO!!!!!!!

    When Halo 2 came out for pc it was a disaster. Controls were screwed up and it was glitchy as hell. It died and no one went back to it. 

    Lets hope that MCC for PC will not repeat the same mistakes.

    The first Halo was fantastic on PC, and was the only version to have online multiplayer too I think..? Very addictive, especially Oddball.

    Around the same time I was playing that I was also playing Freelancer, another fantastic game published by Microsoft. They also did Dungeon Siege around the same sort of time too I think. That was back in the day when Microsoft published decent games for the PC, how times have changed :(

    So is Halo Reach the first Halo? I just looked on Steam and it says the others are coming later? How have some people played Halo 1 and 2 on Pc because I don't see them anywhere on Steam? What order do they need to be played in?

    Halo was was certainly on PC (I still have the disc) but I'm sure I had to by a 360 to play Halo 2 (and Fable 2), but can't honestly recall it being on PC.
    (reading  @Digikid1 comment - maybe that is why I never had it on PC!)
    I really enjoyed playing Halo PC!
