Making a game is very expensive and since Halo PC wasn't really a hot seller, I doubt there will be a remastered Halo PC for the 256mb card. What they (Gearbox and Microsoft) was made the mastered Halo PC like when the game was ready and playable when installed on any computer. Unfortunately they didn't and now the PC community and suffering through their laziness.

Q: Should Bungie Remake Halo PC for 256MB Video Cards?
A: No.

I have a 256MB card. Halo works fine. Same story with my gf. Same story with my sister. Same story with all my friends who also owns 256MB cards. For the record, I know it can work fine on ATi 9200, 9600XT and 9800XT, since those are our cards in reverse order. All 256MB, windows XP, SP2.

Heyyo,

You can't see text cause you missed the hotfix for that buddy....

Go into your halo folder, install that 'mxsmenu.msi' file and then you'll be able to see text, all new M$ games use this text system....

Yeah, there's already hotfixes for HaloPC, why would they bother to create a newer version just to optimize it for 256MB videocards? that's useless. HaloPC's not that big of a game, and a 128MB videocard runs it just fine. The textures a pretty fugly and low rez (for xbox cause most tv's render at around 512x478 anywho..).

If anything they'd remake the game to run better... HaloCE (Custom Edition for the unkowing...) was an attempt at this, but still wasn't as smooth as one would've hoped....
