A sad downgrade from a great game.
Halo on the PC was something many gamers world-wide looked forward to. But, sadly, this game is a little bit disappointing. The Good news is that it has new weapons/vehicles that the version on the xbox doesn't have. The bad news is the cruddy multiplayer. With the lack of work on muliplayer support on microsoft,bungie,gearbox, and gamespy's part allows hackers,back-stabers, and anoying little kids that can tend to piss of the avid, experienced gamer. For a little less than $20 though this game is worth the money, especially if you don't have an xbox. The single player is alright and the multiplayer is bearable in small doses. Do not listen to the system requirements on the box though, because even if you meet them the game doesn't really play well. For a good experience with this game I would recommend that you have a 2.4GHz or higher Intel Pentium4 or AMD64 processor, 40 Gigabyte hard drive, 1 Gigabyte of RAM (if you have Windows XP because its such a RAM muncher) and a 128MB NVIDIA GeForce FX 5200 graphics card or the ATI RADEON equivelent. Do not be decieved by the minimal system requirements for if you want to play this game with only 128MB of Ram and 64MB graphics card you will be very disappointed. Oh, and in response to one of the previous revews posted for this game, it worked for over 5 hours for me so I don't know what crap of a computer that guy had but it plays for much more than 30 mins straight. I would'nt recomend playing for more than 3 hours though, because you don't want to over-work your computer.
