I just got a Acer Laptop Aspire 3680 and was wondering if my computer would be sufficient in running h2?

Thanks

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

Acer Laptop Aspire 3680 means absolutely nothing to anyone here. Why don't you list the actual specs of your computer.

Since laptops have "special" graphics adapters, you could very well run into problems such as lack of fullscreen ability and other stupid crap like that. The game itself will run on any modern computer. That being said, H2v has a number of problems that will drive you mad on any computer. 85% or more of the people here will tell you NOT to buy this game, it is a terrible port and is no longer supported by Microsoft or Bungie. To top it off, there are less than 100 people playing online at any given moment. Think about that. H2v just flat out sucks.

Yeah. That's right. I don't have a 50 in H3. I never got Onyx in Reach. If a game sucks too much, I won't even bother trying for such trivial "accolades". Besides, I've done way more things that take far more skill and talent than anything that can be done in a video game.

Is that your computer? If that's the case, you can kiss that hope goodbye. Halo 2 will run like absolute crap. If at all.

Something smells fishy...

Yeah, that computer will not run Halo 2 Vista. You should browse further into Newegg.com, CDW, Tiger Direct, or any other retailer website that sells electronics.

For example, this is a good Asus laptop that would be able to run Halo 2 Vista:

This is the average H2 Fanboy.

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

A Intel GMA 950 cant even run halo 1. Get a new laptop, and get it with a AMD cpu.
