Subject: Would my laptop be able to run Halo 2?

I have everything matched, but I'm concerned about the Graphics Card. I use an ATI Radeon X1400, and Halo 2 requires at ATI X700.

"NVIDIA 6100, ATI X700, or above"

But does Halo 2 REALLY require a 2 GHZ? Isn't that a little high for a game with such poor PC graphics?

Edit: I also have a 1.8 GHZ, but I have a dual processor. Would that meet the GHZ requirement?

Bungie's monkeys of death are coming, this is your only warning!!!!

Try it if it does not work then re-instal it.

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

1. Depends on how many cores the CPU has, cpus witrh more cores handle it better.
2. The x1400 is integrated. H2 plays much better with dedicated cards. Expect it to look like on the original xbox.

My laptop runs Halo 2 just fine, actually.

It didn't work very good at first since I wasn't connected to the internet.

But once I connected, I got a bunch of updates which fixed the obvious things like the frame-rate, and button response.

It works like a charm now.

Hey captain seriously you don't have to sacrifice yourself to kill the scarab. Their actually pretty easy to kill. You just have to jump in the back and shoot this little light. Remember captain from training where they showed us how to kill it? Captain... CAPTAIN... oh god damn it seriously?

Can you direct me to the secret location of these updates? What kind of laptop do you have?

Connect to the internet, sign into live, and it will update GFWL and halo 2.

Now, in the quantum moment before the closure, when all become one. One moment left. One point of space and time. I know who you are. You are destiny.
