Customer Evaluations

Old but nevertheless entertaining. Still have a awesome multiplayer community.
The storyline is terrific. A bit repetitive close to the finish.

I have good friends at operate that have been talking about how superb this game is for some time now (x-box version), so I have been eagerly awaiting it is arrival on Pc. If the last very first individual shooter you played is the original Doom, then Halo will seem like a massive improvement. All I can say is save your capital and download the Unreal Tournament 2003 demo instead. In my opinion, just about every aspect of UT2003 is greater than Halo (graphics, excitement, sound and so on.). In addition, I am running this game on a relatively maxed out method with an AMD 2500+ overclocked to 3200+ stats and a Radeon 9700 Pro graphics card and the game chugs when there is too significantly action on the screen. This ought to not be the case on a game that is pretty considerably 2 years old.
