Hey people! I'm looking into the whole deal with patching H2 to run on XP. (as i do not want to spend $150 on Vista at the moment) any extra info i could have would be great. (i.e. can i get the patch without using a bit torrent client?)
Also, for those interested in this idea, to get to the site I'm currently using for info, google " Halo 2 Win XP 81123 ". You want the link that says "perfect sin's guide to playing Halo 2 on XP"
Hopefully Bungie won't do anything unfortunate to me for posting this. ; )
Thank you for posting.

I'm there but, man this is really starting to sound like communism.
Long live the MAW.

Heres a link to an article regarding it, inside there is a download for the patch.
simple google search turned that up.
Not so sure if it's fully legal, check the EULA for H2V before trying it.

The bungie.net community is the halo PC community that is renowned for being unbelieveably sucky.

Campaign, yes, online no, AFAIK.

Woudn't worry about the forum ninjas, one had admitted to running it on XP, and another called H2V "a cynical cash grab [by Microsoft]."

The forum ninjas are PC gamers too, and they understand...

anyone know if you can buy H2 through Falling Leaf and still get the compatibility drivers, or was that only for preorder???
