Yes, I am a hypocrite, and I'm sorry. I really do mean well, but I'm not running on all cylinders.

Everytime someone buys a copy of Halo 2 Vista, a puppy dies.

I have it. Can't play it thought because the mouse control sucks.

I tried 3 different mice and 2 computers.

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

The mouse "lag" if you want to call it that is part of the game and can't really be fixed. You either get used to it or you don't.

I regret spending 50 bucks plus tax on the game, but I enjoyed the campaign. The multiplayer was pretty lame though. Bad weapons, and they ruined the driving physics of the hog to the point of absurdity with the way it understeers. The lack of fall damage, the underpowered frag grenades, the homing rocket...lame lame lame. And since there is no support anymore, it seems most sensible people have moved on.

I bought it and I also regret my purchase. Still haven't even played through the entire game and I doubt I ever will. It just feels like crap compared to the first one, which I still play online religiously.

The support hasn't ended. You can call Microsoft at any time for support with Halo 2 for WIndows Vista.

Don't give people false hope. Reasonable people would conclude that support is over when the company that made the game ceases to exist. Futhermore, they even announced the end of support on the H2V forums while acknowledging there were issues that would never be fixed.

Sorry. Just saying there is a level of support available for the simple stuff like getting a replacement disc, installation etc.

I own it and it is a good game. It had a good campaign and multiplayer was good too, it just needs more people. And MS made Hired Gun lock up the editing kit.

Most of the PC issues posted here are the result of PEBKAC.

I like the game, but I want my $50 back. I overpaid out of excitement that the game would be excellent.

Now there's about 30 people online, and half of them are playing Rocket Slayer. So I spend a lot of my time in campaign.

One frag + shot to the head = kill.

Not me. I'm thinking about it, though, due to my singleplayer obsession.
