Halo: Combat Evolved (PC port)

Halo: Combat Evolved was originally going to be made for the PC & Mac platforms. Bungie changed platforms to the upcoming Xbox after being bought by Microsoft. Then, on 09/30/03, Gearbox Software packaged Halo for the PC and added a few extra features, too. (It should be noted, however, that in the process of developing the port, the ability to play co-op in multiplayer mode was lost entirely.) Later, a Halo Mac was made. Halo PC contained several new features that the Xbox version of Halo lacked, namely the ability to play the game in Safe Mode, in addition to six all new multiplayer maps.The game was also outfited with a online multiplayer mode, and a year later with the stand alone custom edition for moding. The resolution of the game is also better than the Xbox version. A demo was also released before the PC version of the game.

Halo PC has maintained incredible popularity since its release. In May of 2007, over 130,000 players played Halo PC online, nearly four years after the game's release.
