i recently upgraded my win xp pro with sp2 to a vista beta build
after applying the special vista patch to halo ce, the i logged on to ce
and man it was so shiny it was hard to see...
(h2 coagulation made by the cmt team looked exactly like the coagulation from the xbox version of halo 2)
no, i'm serious
but beware, if u upgrade to the vista beta platform, wipe your system because you might get driver issues (dnt flame me, i'm just speaking from experience)
also symantec and grifsoft wont work on vista either so get something else

all i have is an nvida ge force 5200 ultra and my halo is like a dreamland
i could see every blade of grass and every reflection that halo could throw at me!

Mind taking a few screenshots for the rest of us to see? Honestly, I have an X200 and my graphics are (roughyl) equal Halo 2's.

Dude, they have ATI has the X1900 cards out already. Where have you been?

Anyways, I simply think you're exaggerating. As awesome as Halo looked when it first came out, when I play Halo 2 the graphics are significantly superior to Combat Evolved's. You're playing on a 5200, you poor soul.

Also the AR is actually good in CQB now and no longer a glorified baseball bat.

Halo 2 makes Combat Evolved look like an 8-bit NES game. That's how awesome the graphics are. Hopefully it will be even more jaw-dropping on Vista with the latest DX9 cards or with the new DX10 series.
