recommended... hmm....

1.5 ghz cpu at least, umm... a bunch of hd space, radeon 9600 or better, not sure what nvidia is about that caliber. prolly around a 5700 or something. umm, good sound card (sound blaster audigy, some of the more recent ac97 chips, etc.) speakers, windows 2k or xp, and definitely broadband, cause dialup ruins the game for everyone.

OMG NOT WINDOWS 2K!!!!!!! I hate that OS. I had it on one of my comps cause my dad said XP was too new and they had more trouble shooting experience with 2k. Boy were they wrong. We downgraded it to 98. XP is definately better that 2k, same with 98.

98 > XP

98 was awesome, XP is just so demanding, too much random stuff, plus the load of security issues and of course the firewall.

I would say 1.5GHz P4, 800MHz AMD, 512MB RAM [256 is hardly cutting it], and a video card comparable to a 9500 or GeForce 4 Ti4000 - and those cards will give you 10-20fps average :(

Dude look at my specs in my sig i play halo 640 by 420 around 10-20 fps per seconds if you have the money get a ati radeon 9800 pro if you dont get a nivida fx5500 ot fx 5700. Ram should be 512 but i play with 256 with no prb. Also i have a celron and it runs halo fine. The most inportant is to get a good grapics card.
