Halo: Combat Evolved - Coming to worthy PCs only!!!

bytheuerkorn Oct 2, 2003

Pros Good FPS everything, vehicles, good multiplayer mode ;-)
Cons Lots of "been there done that", system requirements, progress saves only last...
Recommended it? Yes

If media hype is right, then Halo: Combat Evolved is one of the most anticipated games for 2003. After all the success that made the XBox what it is, Halo comes to 'save' the PC. (Nevermind that this category should be actually under Computergames instead of Videogames as it is right now.)

Pros New maps, weapons, vehicles and of course, the online play
Cons Um...kinda hi specs, 56kers
Recommended it? Yes

Halo…you could call it the game that made the Xbox what it is today. It remained exclusive to Xbox due to a deal Bungie had with Microsoft. With all the money made from Halo, naturally Microsoft would want it on windows and mac to bring the Halo franchise to an even larger audience. I was a... Read full review »

Pros Beautiful graphics, great sound, War of the Ring mode great addition, AI is much smarter.
Cons Single player campaign mode very bland.
Recommended it? Yes

For the fans of Middle-earth (I am one of them) here comes another game for us to enjoy. With the first installment covering all three movies what could this game be about? Would it be more of an expansion game rather than a stand a lone title? What would be enough different content in this game... Read full review »

The Best Movie Licenced Game of All Time

17 Helpfuls 18 Helpfuls Was this review helpful?
Pros THE RTS game for Lord of the Rings fans.
Cons Medieval Total War is better if you want to pull off complex battle strategy.
Recommended it? Yes

I am a big fan of the Lord of the Rings books and movies. While the movies leave out a lot that is in the books (they had to unless they wanted to make it a TV series instead of three movies), they capture the magic and themes well. In some ways, the Battle for Middle Earth games delve into the... Read full review »
