The defeat of the Covenant in the first Halo game was only a temporary victory, as the alien attackers have renewed their mission to wipe out all of humanity. Despite the human military force's and Master Chief's efforts, the Covenant have breeched the Earth's defenses and have left its inhabitants in a dismal situation. In the midst of desperation, players assume the role of Master Chief and lead the resistance against the Covenant to save the people of Earth from a gruesome demise. The long-awaited PC version of Bungie's FPS, Halo 2 offers the full single-player campaign and multiplayer maps of the original Xbox version, with the addition of the content in the Multiplayer Map Pack as well as a tool for building and customizing levels. The game requires Windows Vista. Less
From the Makers of Mass Effect, Star Wars: Knights of the Old Republic, and Baldur's Gate comes an epic tale of violence, lust, and betrayal.

Halo 2: Like old coffee ... simply stale

bytheuerkorn Oct 29, 2007
38 Helpfuls 39 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Finally available for PC, new map editor
Cons Low quality graphics, plain dumb AI, repetitive gameplay, price, Vista only
Recommended it? No

Microsoft has been controversial, yet successful, in the release of two extremely hyped products: Windows Vista and the Halo franchise (created by Bungie). With the PC version of Halo 2 they're joined at the hip and despite the clear marketing purpose (rather than technology), it still turned out... Read full review »

A worthy successor to the Baldur's Gate Series

bycorey_russell Mar 11, 2010
14 Helpfuls 15 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros Excellent graphics, sound, story, party based format
Cons Considerable hardware to run
Recommended it? Yes

First of all, let me just say that I very much enjoy Baldur's Gate (made by BioWare, the same people who made Dragon Age: Origins) with its party format and NPC interactions. Dragon Age: Origins helps to recreate that enjoyment by having up to 3 other NPCs (Non-Player Characters) be part of your... Read full review »

Pros Good Value, Challenging, Great Design
Cons None
Recommended it? Yes

Dragon Age is a challenging roleplaying game and is far superior on the PC than the console.   You can plan party mechanics and pause the game in the PC version and cannot do this on the console.  The graphics are beautiful and the storyline is interesting.   The gameplay... Read full review »
