My 360 broke a few days ago, and I needed something to spend the time. I am not too much into computer games but I have a vista laptop and halo 2 was pretty much the only game I wanted. Do alot of people play halo 2 for the pc online? I dont want to just beat the story mode and have nothing else to do. I can play halo 2 online for hours and hours so that will probably be the only game Ill be able to play, and I wanted to make sure I could do that.

Thanks

well theres about 50 servers running atm ,but most of them have no one in them :(
but you can just click the player tab at the top of the server browser and find the ones with people in them
so no theres not a whole lot of people online atm ,but hopefully there will be in time

also what are the specs of your laptop?

Wow.... this stinks. My comp had all the requirements on the back of the box, but when I started playing the game its soooo messed up and laggy. I made all the resolution really low and it got better but still its really laggy. I'm probably going to return it but is there any other way to make it run smoother

Well I dont know much about computers but I know I have 2 G ram, 2GHz, and vista. But when I installed it, it said something about video memory which I was 64 instead of 120+ mg. Also I didn't have the most updated video driver or something

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

I'm guessing that he has integrate craphics™ since he said that the game told him there were only 64MB of VRAM.

Surprisingly very few people seem to play this game, I cant really blame them either, The game crashes, the game has problem using the mic, it runs laggy on high end systems, Google up halo 2 vista problems and check out all the posts. I'm very disappointed in this port as I had high expectations. Call MS and see if the 3 year 360 warranty applies to you or buy a used Xbox for $50 used and play it on that because IMO Halo 2 vista is pure garbage compared to it's Xbox/360 brother.
