If your getting Vista just for Halo 2 Vista don't bother its not worth it. If your going to get Vista regardless then Halo 2 is OK to get to go along with it

Home Premium. Basic sucks, and Ultimate is a waste.

Better to die on your feet then live on your knees!

Time for your PissTest.

1 gig of memory is pushing it as well.

Maybe not to you. But to other people it might be.

I love it. It needs less little kids and more amounts of people. But if you tell everyone its not worh it, then how is it going to get more people...

Id have to connect to a server a single time without it kicking me off and without LIVE disconnecting by itself. Then id say its worth it but until then... no
Its not going to grow very much unless they release it for XP

I see a few more people in servers every day. It's growing, slowly. The more people who join, the better. I've really had fun with H2V for the week I've had it.

Also, the ATI 700x is the minimum requirement for H2V, so you need to upgrade.

Slaying noobs since 2007.

You need to get a better cpu or else you will get bottlenecked with a new gpu. And as for your mobo, we need to know what exact connections it uses, there are some newer mobos which come with both PCI and PCI-e, usually 1 PCI, and 2 PCI-e. but, make sure you grab some more ram if you feel you want it.

you need AGP nvidia 7600GS 512mb DDR2 minimum because pci-e take 128mb of your ram for the hyper memory or turbo cache feature...

Who said we are behind, we have Crysis, BioShock (and guess what with better graphics too!), Hellgate, Lost Planet (it has been brought to my attention it can use Dx10), and a host of Pc only games.

I suggest buying it then selling it.

$60 is ridiculous. Buy it then sell it since you don't need a disk to play it after it's installed.

But you need a valid key, and two LIVE accounts can't use the same key because you'll get an error.

If you don't care about Windows Aero, Home Basic will do the job if you already have a software to create CDs and DVDs such as "Roxio Media Creator 9"

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

Not true. I use one key for both of my accounts, and it works fine. The problem only arises(probably) if both accounts are playing with the one key at the same time.
