Halo themes

Only for Windows Vista, Halo 2 will offer gamers both the single-player campaign and multiplayer experience of the original, as well as the additional maps offered in the Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack. Gamers will also have the opportunity to build, create and customize their own multiplayer levels.
Halo: Combat Evolved and its sequel, Halo 2, have achieved phenomenal success on the Xbox video game platform as gamers around the world follow the saga of Master Chief in his battle against the Covenant forces. In 2003, the original Halo roared onto Windows PCs. In Halo 2 for Windows Vista, the action picks up where the first game ended. Master Chief, with the help of a small group of marines, has destroyed the religious artifact and artificial world known as Halo, and is making his way back to Earth. There, he and the last surviving Earth forces will mount a titanic struggle against the marauding Covenant enemy. To date, the Halo franchise has sold more than 14.5 million games worldwide with over 600 million hours of multiplayer action logged across Microsoft's Xbox Live online gaming service.

Halo 2 is published by MIcrosoft, and developed by Bungi. And I am interested to see how it will play, considering Vista does not support OpenGL.
Halo 2 is made by microsoft and i think they want to sell many vista that's why halo 2 can only be plaed by vista!
Sorry there are some typos on my last post but theres no edit button
*flips off Vista* I would Vista but the are monturing you so closely that is you go to new grounds they cut off your internet
We care about Halo 2 for Vista because it's moddable, which is what this entire site is about. :)
Actually, no - DirectX9.0L is for Vista only (the L stands for Longhorn). It allows Vista to run DX9 games.
Halo 2 will not run on Windows XP because Microsoft want your money for Vista.
To be honest, I don't see why anyone even cares about Halo 2 any more. It was an average game on release, and doesn't begin to compare with any half-decent PC shooter now.
It's two years late, and looking no better for it. Game over, methinks.
I've read that DirectX 9L, which will at some point be released for XP users, is to be a slimmed-down version of DX10, which is Vista-only and upon which H2 is dependent. I hope this will enable some skilled modder out there to make H2 "XP friendly," as so many similar mods and hacks came out over the years for many "XP Only" games run on Windows 98. I know the skill is out there... I can only hope someone exercises it. I don't plan upgrading to Vista until a service pack come out to bring those ungodly Vista performance benchmarks down to a tolerable level of suck.
I've never owned an XBox, only played on those belonging to friends. My H2 experience had been painfully limited, and I look forward to the chance to remedy that,
The reason for the need for a vista update is so MS can get more money. That is why I ain't gona update untill I get a really good comp.
Why is it only for Windows Vista, as I have Windows XP, and there are many people who have Windows XP, it seems unfair to people who do not want to update to Windows vista, or are happy with their computer windows system at the moment!
First to say something on halo2.
For very long time it have been on Xbox soon Vista will see the light.
