I got someone Halo as a gift for someone. They've been procrastinating playing it, talking about how it'll be boring and it's just like all the other games, and how he's played every bit of Doom so there'll be nothing new. He finally tried to install it today, and it just doesn't work. He says there's no error, it just doesn't install. I haven't seen it myself, so I can't really describe it.
So I'll get to the question. Halo came out 6 years ago on the Xbox, and I know it was tweaked because the team porting it knew it had to look better than the original if it wanted to get people to buy it when they could have it for the console. Well his computer is about 6 years old, and I know Halo PC is about 3 years old, so I'm wondering: Would a 6 year old computer be able to run a 3 year old port of a 6 year old game? Because he's worried his graphics card just isn't able to handle it, causing it not to install, and he won't let me try it on my(4 year old) computer, nor look at it.
Anyways, it's taken me months to get him to put the CD in. I don't suppose anyone could give me a definite answer as to whether or not it will run, or happen to know if this is some common problem affecting Halo PC.
