Comment Re:halo ? (Score 2, Insightful) 516

Patching isn't an option for Halo, purely because it doesn't have the hooks in the code to look for patches. So while they could easily write one, when you put the disc in the drive, it would not check the HDD for the patch and thus make the whole exercise useless.

Some people say that they should allow patches in some situations. I don't agree. Morrowind (US version) is buggy beyond a joke, but if they let them patch that then where do they draw the line. Similar to letting Bungie patch Halo. Can all developers then release a game and later add the Live! feature whenever they like?

c'mon guys, this is a console not a PC. We have been over this
