Anybody know what the minimum and recommended system requirements are going to be for Halo 2 on PC? Also I read something like "Halo 2 PC, Windows Vista exclusive." Is it seriously not going to be supported by Windows xp?

It is only for Vista, yes. Which sucks, because Halo 2 obviously does not need Vista to run.

Nah. The only reason why it's coming out for vista so people will want to get vista to play Halo 2 PC. Like when Halo came out. People got a xbox so they could play Halo.

Yep, they got an xbox so they could just play Halo and Halo alone, and any other games they might have purchased also are completely irrelevant and stupid. As there could be any OTHER reason for getting an Xbox.

Just like Vista. The only reason every single person will get it for is to play H2PC. Obviously.

Hello? Microsoft does not need a game to sell their operating system.

And dear lord people, have you seen the future line up of PC games for Vista? A port of a two year old Xbox game is not the only thing coming up on Vista. Ever hear of Alan Wake? Company of Heroes? Age of Conan: Hyborian Adventures? Flight Simulator X? Hellgate: London? Shadow Run? What about DX10 for Windows Vista, which could make H2 PC a totally great looking game more than already would on a PC?

Microsoft doesn't need games to sell its OS. If it did, then it doesn't need H2, with all the great, photo-realistic games coming for Vista. And then we have more games from Vista to look forward to. Come on dudes, seriously. I'm going to get H2 PC as soon as I can, but there's a ton of other great games that are going to be for Vista.

The future of PC gaming looks photo-realistically bright, with DX10 and all. Come on guys, we've waited quite a while for H2 to come to PC, and we produce a harsh critique towards it.

Besides, Vista is gonna be more expensive than an Xbox; so, I'm gonna buy Halo 2 and an Xbox.

Yes, you will need Vista.
System requirements have not been announced yet, but here is my prediction:

MINIMUM
* AMD Athlon 3000+ or equivalent
* nVidia 6 series or higher (it'll probably run like crap on a 6600 GT)
* 756 MB RAM
* 2 GB HDD space

RECCOMENDED
* AMD Athlon 3800+
* nVidia 7600 GT
* 1 GB RAM
* (Still) 2 GB HDD space
