Speaking of H1 LANs, I
Speaking of H1 LANs, I wanted to see what some of you thought about an idea I had recently.
H1 is still the game of choice for THXers, at least out of the Halo trilogy. But it has some drawbacks. No XBL support. Must play split-screen in order to get more than 4 players in the same game. Graphics that are now sub-par (although nearly unsurpassed during it's time).
This got me thinking. Halo1 PC does not have these limitations. You can have 16 players in a game w/out split-screening. It has it's own online service and support (and I don't mean XBC), as well as LAN capability. It has better graphics. It even has other advantages, such as more weapons and maps. It can be run by any mid-range PC w/ Windows. It supports keyboard and mouse, AS WELL as the old Xbox S-Controller (or your favorite 3rd party gamepad). A PC LAN would be just as easy, if not easier, to coordinate than an Xbox LAN.
Some issues that will undoubtedly be brought up. "Does it play the same?" Yes. Not w/ keyboard and mouse, obviously, but w/ S-Controller, it's identical as far as I can tell on the campaign, only with better graphics.
"What do I need?" A PC w/ decent graphics, a monitor, some PC speakers, and an S-Controller. Game *NOT* needed. You can play locally on a LAN using one game disc, loading it on each PC, and then running a software emulator program that negates the requirement for the CD to be in the drive in order to play.
"How do I use my Xbox S-Controller on my PC?!" Herein lies the only catch. The S-Controller connection is merely a modified USB connector. All you need is an adapter ($10 on ebay) that turns it into the kind your PC uses, and software driver (which usually come with it, if not then I have a copy) that tells your PC what it is. Or if you're good w/ electronics (splicing, soldering, etc.), have a spare USB cable, and are resourceful enough, then you can ghetto-rig it yourself.
A $10 investment, per person, is potentially all we need to LAN Halo1 like we've never been able to do before... i.e., no more split-screening!
Anyhow, it's just a thought. Let me know what you guys think.
