That's what you get for an awful port of (supposedly) one of the best FPS of all times



Around the Network

Not surprised about the report. But i'm surprised it took them that long.



I have Halo 2 single player running on Windows 7 without any issues. It runs on an AMD E450 APU netbook like a champ...at 1366x768.

Is the SP worth playing on PC? Played Halo 1 PC and wasn't that impressed back in 2005/2006 or so.


I thought it was the worst Halo campaign out of all of them. However it's still better than 90% of other FPS campaigns...to me at least. 

I liked it cause it runs on low specs. Most of those lowe end AMD laptop APUs can run it so it's good for gaming when work sends me somewhere. I've beat RE4, Portal 2 and Halo 2on Pc on the last 3 business trips lol.



i got every single Halo game... For Xbox :D

But yeah those 20 guys its need to move up to Halo 4! Buy the 360 its dirt cheap.

Being an Xbox 1 port, you would hope it would be light on system requirements today. :P

Graphically though, it is better than Halo 2 emulated on the Xbox 360, but it's nothing "amazing".

I really wish Microsoft would bring Halo 3 and Fable 2 to the PC already to finish off those trilogy's.

Also, what's the bet someone set's up a dedicated server and releases a patch to get around the no server bizzo? Happened to plenty of other games that had it's server shut off. :)

Thats a given. People can still play dreamcast games online to this day... Some hacks have even alowed cross platform play between DC and PC users for Phantasy Star Online.

Never played it on PC, but probably my favorite Halo out of all of them. With halo 2 going off of live a few years back, this pretty much marks the end of it! R.I.P Halo 2!



"We are currently investigating the feasibility of continuing to support Halo 2 PC servers. We'll provide an update once we know more but in the meantime, we have extended support of Halo 2 PC through June 2013"
