Good if you've already got Vista
08/09/2008
By Arvingornfrom California
What's great about it: New maps you won't get in the Xbox version, minor graphics improvement What's not so great: You still need XBL for online play and the content doesn't make up for the price
"Still the same Halo 2 you've known and loved, but ported to Windows Vista. It's good, but not enough to upgrade your OS. If not, just settle for H2 doe the Xbox/ 360. Hey, why not just get Halo 3?"

Halo has done it again
07/10/2008
By Illuminati789from yonkers ny
"The first halo (combat evolved) was a major hit for the pc. This game is even better and you don't even need a high end pc. I don't know about you guys my pc isn't what you would call a gaming rig. However you do need a low end graphics card ( I have nvidia 8400 GS) and an okay processor. If you have these things you will be able to play flawlessly. good graphics and multi player!"

Incredible Game
12/04/2007
By DreadPirateRoberts
"This is the first game that I bought for my new PC and I am definately glad that I did! Make sure that your graphics card is updated, however. I had to spend an extra $300 in order to fully enjoy seamless play. After I did, though, the game has completely engrossed me! I have never played any of the Halo games before and there is some history that I don't fully understand, but that doesn't mean that I can't enjoy the story line of this game."

Immensely Satisfying
10/09/2007
By galactica
What's great about it: Excellent graphics, great gameplay What's not so great: Slightly resource intensive
"This is the best game I have ever played on PC. It's even better with a 360 controller (which works flawlessly). Graphics are wonderful, even on a low end system. You can play again easily, but even with the linear storyline, you will never have the same experience twice. A source of endless entertainment."

A great game, but you already new that
09/15/2007
By Nitrofrom Madras,OR
"This is the second of the Halo trilogy, (hence the name), it is basically the same as it's counterpart on Xbox, no new features, or maps except you don't need to buy the map pack for this one. It is of course very fun if you play on LIVE or just on your internet connection, also I would recommend picking up the Xbox 360 controller for your CPU it makes game play far easier than using the keyboard and mouse, also helpful if your already familiar with it. Above all just pick this one up if you can because it has way better graphics then the Xbox one and it's fun on whatever system you play, so get it now or else. . ."
