I'm thinking about getting H2V. I know what you're thinking,that I already have Halo 3, so why bother. It's just that Halo 3's community is too large and I want to play Halo in a smaller community. That and achievements make another reason. I already have Xbox Live Gold for a year, but I don't have Vista, and My stats are pretty low and I don't if it will run:

Pentium 4 processor
512 MB RAM
Nvidia 5200FX
Windows XP professional

I'm only 13 so I can't just pay for upgrades, and my parents won't pay for this stuff (with good reason, they already got me a 360), but they might upgrade to vista. I've already done everything on Halo 3, but I want to keep playing Halo. Achievements give me incentive to play. I'm never truly done with a game unless I get at least 750 gamerscore on it. I'm not an achievement whore, it's just achievements are like challenges to me. Anyways I don't want to drift off, but yeah are there any other options?

Stupid parents let their stupid children play games that are rated M when they should be playing Big Birds Spelling Adventures

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

That amount of RAM won't even run Vista.

well the good news is that you can find a better system in a couple dumps around your neighborhood.

And if you're looking for a smaller community... you'll definitely get that with Halo 2 Vista ; )

If you want a even smaller comunity we suggest Halo custom edition. ;)

madkiller... it wont' even run it on crappy graphics. You have to pass a certain threshold for games to run on it.

You know what you're right, I'm gonna play Halo 2 Xbox and I'm not being sarcastic

Heh, you could forget trying to play that game on those specs anyway. H2X is a good idea.
