Microsoft needs Halo 2 to sell Vista to gamers since games using DX9 or lower either
A. wont work well, and will have framerate issues, etc
B. wont work at all
this is why i'm waiting to see how Vista will handle legacy games BEFORE I BUY IT.
That is not true... MS doesn't NEED Halo 2 to sell Vista. Sure, it will help convincing gamers to get it sooner, but eventually, everyone will use Vista no matter what, with or without Halo 2. Just like everyone had XP a year after the launch and just like everyone had Windows 98 a year after the launch...
yes because i'm going to waste $300+ on an new OS that i cant play Half-Life 2, FEAR, Quake 4, etc on? your smoking something i want.
No matter how much you dislike, yes you will. Maybe you won't the moment it's released, but at max one year later, you will. Halo 2 will be the reason why some people get Vista sooner, but I repeat, we will all get it eventually, with or without H2.
