Which platform will you get Episode Two on?
Currnetly, its a debate for me between Xbox 360, and PC. If mods for PC reqiure Epi Two content, I'll be stuck, but the 360 has no "graphics settings" and it updates all of the others too...
What will you guys get it on?
 
Both PC and Xbox 360 for me. I already have GOTY edition and Episode 1 for my PC, so it would be a shame not to be able to play Episode 2 with a keyboard and mouse as well. But the prospect of having the entire HL2 collection on my Xbox 360 is too enticing to pass up. Xbox Live, the guide, my friends list, it's all there on the 360. Not to mention that the graphics will probably be better than on my rig, and at a more steady framerate. I'm hoping that VALVe updates the original HL2 with HDR, etc because that would just be the cherry on top of an already amazing deal. :cheers:

(BTW it isn't coming out for the Wii, you might want to change that. )
 
PC. In my opinion, thats where FPSs belong. I don't have a 360, and the PS3 costs too much. Besides, the Keyboard/Mouse is easier for me to use than a controller.

Okay.


















How do I edit my poll?:o
 
PC. If I had a 360 I would rent it after I beat it on my PC, just for the steady frame rate.
 
I can't run HDR, so the 360 would be my best chance. On the other hand, theres still the mod issue.
I settling with both.
 
Ill play it on PC but ill buy it for everything. Not saying i wont play it on the consoles but PC 1st then consoles.
 
PC here.

Thread-starter, could you post a link backing up a Wii release?
 
Definatly the Pc version for mouse and keyboard and mods. Then the PS3 for no sound looping crashes and steam.
 
PC for sure, i mean i bought a new PC just for HL2 when it came out, its lasted me this long and i may upgrade soon....but ill also get it for 360 cuz i want the box, cuz i have it for xbox and i just keep the box on my pc desk to be added to my HL room :)
 
360. No point in shelling out for a decent computer just to play one game. With 360, I can play it in a high graphical form and without crashes, slow-downs or bad framerate.

(Your probably thinking ''Not shelling out for a upgrade but spending money on a 360 lol?!'' - theres games I want for the 360, whereas the PC isn't offering me anything really, other than maybe BF2142)
 
XBOX360 - I don't own this yet, and I didn't really use my XBOX to begin with. I highly doubt I'll be picking up the new system before the end of the year (or at all).

PlayStation 3 - I'd be silly to purchase this thing at the current price.

Wii - Next!! :p

PC - I've played all the other Half-Life games on the PC. I own a computer that can run the games well on the medium/high graphical settings, so no problems there. The keyboard is also more preferable for me.


I'll be going with the PC. :E
 
Don't own any console and probably never will.
And PC is the only option for FPS, mouse+keyboard= Superior!

There isn't. I thought it was but after checking, it isn't.
It might come on Wii, but I doubt it.

Hopefully, like EA, UbiSoft and Free Radical, Valve will also decide to support Wii.

Analogue Stick + Buttons + 3D Mouse >> All.

Anyway, as I don't want to buy an expensive console for a few good games, I'll definitely get it on PC (unless it does come out on Wii)
 
PC without question obviously....because I don't even have those systems. Thinkin about purchasing a Wii though..and I agree with A True canadian the PS3s price is insane, not buying. Not to mention the games will probably be like 70 to 80 bucks a pop.
 
Probably both. 360 for playing HL2 on a big screen while lounging on the sofa and for Xbox Live. PC for TF2.
 
why would you get half life for consoles..you cant spawn npcs and do crazy stuff ..i mite be wrong tho

Those things are all extraneous little bits for me.

I buy Half Life games for the story, the characters, and the amazing singleplayer gameplay and graphics. The graphics will be amazing on the 360, and a controller instead of keyboard/mouse is barely a hindrance at all when playing against AI in singleplayer.
 
Mouse and Keyboard FTW.

Much easier to control. Simple as that.
