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

1. Halo CE is Windows only.

2. It's called a Windows/360 Common Controller for a reason. There might be custom drivers, but there are no guarantees of a 360 controller working on a Mac.

Install Vista on your mac, then install Halo PC... then use your controller... although I'd have no idea why you would want to use a controller for a pc game.

Halo PC is Halo for the PC/Mac.

Halo CE is Halo Custom Edition. :/

Oh, by the way, I use a controller for both Halos on PC because I'm used to it for Halo. I started playing it on the Xbox, so that's what I use for the PC versions too. I use a M/K combo for most other games like CSS, RvS, et cetera.

Some people have never heard of Halo Custom Edition, so they refer Halo PC as Halo CE, I used my 360 controller on both, ever since I got my new mouse, I stopped using it, I'm gonna start using it...

Ever since my mouse broke, i have been using xbox conroller...... I kinda like it more because you get to slouch in your chair and relax whereas the M/K you gotta sit upright :P

Oh thats a good joke. Don't say that ever again.
I really prefer XP with SP3 to Vista with SP1.

I don't use XP any more. I switched over to Vista for my desktop, and my laptop came preinstalled with Vista Enterprise. :)

Vista should only have one edition: Ultimate. If given the choice, everyone would big Ultimate. Face it, nobody gives a crap about the other ones.

Also, I got mine fer free. As a gift. From the Internet =D Updatez and awl I can has get pl0x =DD. But, I think I might be ready to go back to XP (dual-boot) catssss

But dude, it's four-hundred dollars. I would admittedly rather buy another Xbox 360. Besides, Home Premium is what I would buy, as no gamer needs all the extras that Ultimate provides.

I don't need to buy Vista, I have Vista Business, xD.

Big? Now why would I say that?

Anywho, if given the choice between all the editions, all anyone really wants would be ultimate (if they were the same price) :P

To play Halo Mac with a wired (or wireless, using the adapter) 360 controller, you need a driver which is found here.
