You know I wish microsoft would let you play Halo 2 on XP aswell. So we have choices! Vista is like blu-ray, their forcing it upon us. Also Linux is a way better OS then anything microsoft can produce. Linux will own windows when more games are supported, which is around the corner.


don't want to play halo 2 on vista then play it on windows XP, Download steam and the source SDK and learn how to code, skin, map, make models etc and join my group called Halo:Source which is an ongoing project designed to make halo 2 mutiplayer using the source engine for windows XP users.


Ya, good luck with that.

It's not impossible. Professional grade games have been made by talented and dedicated fans with the Source Engine, including Black Mesa Source.

I have Halo for Xbox which I now play on Xbox 360, I will also buy it for PC (once it drops in price to £19.99). I see no problem with buying it for PC, the online is different and I think its worth the money. Vista is excellent download the beta if you do not believe me.

Microsoft is like any company, they make money and as far as im concerned Microsoft are one of the better companies around.

Oh and I thought that Halo 2 for PC was coming out quite a bit after the Vista version? Well whatever ill be getting Vista anyway.

To the people who seem to hate consoles here, I would say that consoles and PCs are different things all together, they both have benefits, I have a 360 and a good PC. The reason for that is I like to have both and benefit from both sides.

What? Play a game? FOR FUN???
This concept of fun confuses and infuriates me!

You could have PMed that to him, instead of bumping the thread.
Let it die.

I wonder if the Wolf thinks the Moon listens when he howls at it.

Linux isn't going anywhere. If you haven't noticed Microsoft has bought a ton of software companies so that they can incorporate particular software into their OS's. For example did you know that the Microsoft Word application was orignally its own company?-But M$ bought it out and the same goes for the Windows Media App. My point is M$ will probably buy Linux out and add it to their OS line.

Like I said, 98 users complained of XP, and 3.1 uses hated 95, is vista any different?

Vista will be loved soon, very soon. It is better than XP in many areas, better UI, directx 10, smoother games, ect. So don't hate it, Halo 2 will be better with vista than xp. So don't complain. It's hipocritical to hate it at this point, XP was hated, 98, 95, all hated at one time.

I will get vista one day, Halo 2 also, its just gonna be awsome.
