Thank you Bungie! <3

Is it possible? If I try to turn on Environmental Sounds in the audio options, it's grayed out. How do I enable it?

Microsoft took out HAL(Hardware Abstraction Layer) in Vista/7 so you can't really use it anymore.

Vista and Windows 7 use a new "better" method of sound control. So even if you could enable it, you wouldn't notice.

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.

Actually, the difference EAX makes is night and day in HPC.
