If anybody knows of any Halo ports to the DS please give me links. If you know if someone's making one give me a link to their blog or website about their production and progress.

Because, last I checked, that 2d Halo game was not open source. What's more, I think they used some game-making program, not straight-up coding language, meaning that a "port" wouldn't really work.

As for a Halo port.. I believe the author (should) mean "remake" or Halo-esque game. Halo is definitely NOT open-source and thus cannot be ported. I won't even go into the fact that it's a game that runs on PCs and Xbox, and definitely wouldn't work on the DS.

They could do it though, right? ;)

They should...it would get a lot more exposure...

I think that was some one making the Halo maps for Iris on the PSP.

It can't be ported in the true sense of the word, plus it would probably be 2d, so not really good.

You really didn't get the point. The point is, 3d maps could perhaps be recreated. Stop spamming offtopic.

Anyhow, I hope that someone makes a good recreation (not port) even though I don't have a DS.

Leave your fanboy attitude at the door eh?

I think MS is toying with the idea of putting Halo on DS....

My reasons for this is because MP:H proved FPS could be done with good graphics and controls also some of MSs games are going to be on DS like Rares games, MechAssault and Black & White Creatures....plus if they did it it could also help DS kick the shit out of PSP even more...thus hurting MS biggest rival Sony...

Black & White Creatures....

Do you have any info on that? I haven't heard anything on it in like a year (or so it seems) but i havent looked it up much either...

A Halo DS would be awesome, but for now ill stick with MPH

Yeah Black and White seems to have dissapeared, didn't they have pics out and everything?, then it seemed to dissapear.

I didn't know it was a "microsoft" game?!, I didn't think Micro/Sony/Nintendo would mix ATALL, because they're all each others competition. But man if Microsoft/Nintendo could form a bound that would be AWESOME. Banjo Kazooie is my no.1 wanted game for DS, if Rare did it boy I would probably run into my street in tears of happiness.

Back on topic... I didn't have an Xbox so never played Halo much, but I obviously know that it must be great, and I'd love it on DS. The more games the merrier!

Why port a perfect game like Halo to such garbage as the Nintendo "portable gaming system". It can barely run its own games good. Halo requires at least 733MHz of cpu and 256 MB of ram. The DS has 67MHz at most. 37 counting its other CPU. IT CANT lolz.
