Questions about CE

Post by Kieran »

Hey guys I just wanted to ask a few questions about Halo CE because with all due respect, there are so many versions of halo that I'm confused.

1. Is haloCE only multiplayer?

2. Is there any benefit to having halo trial or halo combat evolved installed prior to installing CE

3. When people refer to halo PC, do they mean Halo: Combat Evolved full edition?

1. By default, yes, but you can download campaign levels as well.

2. Nope, but you do need a Halo PC CD key to install Halo CE.

3. I'm not so sure what you mean by "full edition", but I'll try to answer that as best as I can.
Halo PC is the computer version of Halo 1 game that you would buy at a store. Halo CE usually refers to Halo Custom Edition, but is also another way to refer to the original Halo Combat Evolved for Xbox (more often called Halo 1 around here). Does that make sense?

Thank you so much, you answered my question perfectly :)

My understanding now is this:

There is Halo 1,2, and 3 for XBox.
For computer, there is Halo Trial, Halo Combat Evolved(a.k.a PC), and Halo Custom Edition.

*EDIT

Sorry for confusing you with the full edition thing. By that I meant the full, non-trial retail version (rather than the trial).

Thanks.

This thread is not really sticky-worthy but you could all link new people to it so that everything is clear as crystal. :)
