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.

There's a hack that can allow you to run Halo 2 on XP. The last time I tried it, I had no sound. Loading times, frame rate and input were all improved in relation to Vista.

Sorry, I phrased that wrong. I meant the game performed better on XP with the hack.

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

I wonder what was so bad about his post that the OP got banned. I mean seriously.

Did Bungie run out of lies about why H2 doesn't work on XP so now they just ban people? lol

There are mods that look at these forums?

yeah they did.
since Bungie was the one who lied.
The Halo 2 Vista FAQ was full of lies and fails.
Bungie themselves did say they were making design "decisions".

which made h2v fail.

thats is good. I wish they'd release a patch for XP users, since most player base is on XP.
