Update Pros and Cons

Pros

You can't chat with other players unless you are using skype (built-in voice comms only work if you are in private chat) there are some interface issues but considering how old the game is i was happy with the product i paid for. The combat is very we... Read More

Multiplayer is still very much alive and well thanks to a plethora of dedicated servers from other gamers. This extensive multiplayer network allows everyone to find the game they want, regardless of whether he/she wants to host a network or not. It i... Read More

Cons

There is no reason this game needs vista, since its not even a directx10 game. There is a software conflict between this and another ms software that prevents to game from launching. Microsoft could fix this with a patch but hasn't since the game came... Read More

Competitiveness

Microsoft is letting all of it's pc customers down by making all the sequels for x box only!

Even if its sh1t compared to its potential concept.

The multiplayer was just as fun as halo: combat evolved's and halo 3's (i started with halo: ce for pc, halo 3 was my 2nd halo game).
