Go buy the original Halo for pc and play online -- I bet you'd have a lot more fun. It looks like your pc could handle it. Tons more people on a map at one time on a computer.

im looking to build a gaming pc here in the next couple months. i have played a few games on my laptop pc. they ran pretty good except that everynow and then the game would freeze for a second or two. i think the processor was running so hot that it had to throttle back which caused the game to lag.

i dont want to use my desktop pc, cause that is my server, which is my file server, exchange server, sharepoint, internet gateway, etc. basically it is doing everything on my home network.
but when i do purchase and build my new gaming rig, i will definitely be picking up halo for the pc. i hope they do release halo 2, but from the sounds of it, i dont think that is gonna happen, i dont think they want to take away from halo 2 on the xbox, which is retarded, but im guessing they figure if they dont release it for the pc, people will eventually cave and go by an xbox.
