Wrong, if they include this feature, you may actully get to switch OS's with Vista, did i say that right? Anyways, DEFENTILY! With Vista ultimate, and its called the edit button if your new, dont double post, its annoying.

I'm upgrading to Vista anyway, but Vista IS going to work with xp games like half-life 2 and other games. Yes, I will get Halo 2 pc when it's released.

Meh, I dont really care. I would buy Halo 2 just because it's a Halo game, but by itself, it looks sort of crappy. I've played Halo 2 mods on Halo CE, and the weapons are stupid. The battle rifle is lame, the pistol is super-weak, and the magnum only gets six shots or so. Plasma swords look like a pain in the arse, and above all.. not to sound GH3Y or anything.. but the Master Chief looks kind of... skinny. Not just cutting-back-on-after-battle-beers skinny, but like emaciated skinny. Maybe that sounds weird, but I'm just not all that excited about Halo 2. Im happy to keep on playing my Win 2000 Pc.

Im gonna get famed by angry fans now, aren't I? Dont hurt me!

Calm down, dude. Yes, even I find this thread a little repetitive, but at least it wasn't something retarded like, "Halo 2 is coming to Windows Vista next year!"

Dude, have you even seen the graphics for Halo 2? On the Xbox?

I don't mean to diss the people who work with the H2 content on CE, but those are crap. They're user-created content. Not actual H2 graphics! H2 looks much better than Combat Evolved, it makes it look 8-bit. So, if you take graphics from Halo 2 to an older game with older graphics, then it obviously isn't going to look any better!

You thinking that H2 Vista will look crappy simply because you looked at some mod of that game does not mean the game is going to look like that. Just because some people made a tag for a vehicle from Unreal Tournament, let's say, does not mean that the actual vehicle in UT looks like that.

H2 looks great on the Xbox, it's visuals were jaw-dropping in 2004, and I still think it still looks beautiful. H2 Vista, logically, with DX10 graphics and higher resolutions, and possibly AA and AF, it can only look superior to the Xbox version of course!

and the games won't have to go threw vista first then the graphics card it'll go right to the graphics card so there will be barely if any lag

Turn west on Broadway, and right at the second light on Welchester Road. There is a dirt path about a 1/4 mile way up, turn onto it. When you hit the interstate 56 sign pull back onto the road. From there take the road 38 miles towards Wisconsin. Get off at Exist 73 and take that street to Vermont Road, and take a left at the stop sign. Go down that street to the fifth house on the left. Go into the backyard and open the shed. There you will find my leaf blower, its yours to keep.

im just pointing things out for all of you.
1) vista can run all ur old games. its been said on IGN an Gamespot about a hundered times.
2) halo 2 for vista will run and look better. halo 2 for the xbox was pushing all limits on the xbox. unless u got a sucky computer just get a 360 an play halo 2 on it.
3) you are going to have to get vista at one point or your never going to get to play Pc games that come out.
4) Direct X 10

thats all.

Links please. And if they did, there's nothing stopping from that being changed, is it?

Halo 2 Vista will run for Vista better. But there is no significant difference between playing H2 on the Xbox and the Xbox 360. You have no idea wtf you're talking about.

I'm definitely getting Vista Ultimate, because if I get it I can watch and record live TV through my Xbox 360. Leet.
