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

It runs like crap on everything.

Get Halo PC.

It only takes a simple question to change everything.

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.

The system requirements Ancients listed are the minimum requirements to run the game at all. In order to make the game run smoothly, you need a much more powerful PC than that. It's stupid, considering the Xbox wasn't very powerful at all in terms of hardware, but you can thank Hired Gun and their dropout programmers for the terrible graphics optimizations that make H2V run so badly on all but decently powerful PCs.

In a time long past, the armies of the dark came again to the lands of men. Their leaders became known as the fallen lords, and their terrible sorcery was without equal in the west.
In 30 years they reduced the civilized nations into carrion and ash. Until the free city of Madrigal alone defined them. An army gathered there, and a desperate battle was joined against the fallen
Heros were born in the fire and bloodshed of the wars which followed and their names and deeds will never be forgotten

Not entirely sure but I know I got it to work on my windows 7 laptop...

I'm 23, I have a house, dog, girlfriend, job and I have no interest in any fanboyism so if you're thinking about sending me a childish PM, don't be surprised when I don't call back.

This, it's a shame as well considering Halo PC is so great. Halo 2 Vista feels like wasted potential.

If they fixed all the issues (giant ass hitboxes), it might have been good. But no, they just made a cheap console port.
