5 out of 5 stars Halo Combat Evolved for Windows PC   November 2, 2008
Halo: Combat Evolved

A great game! I am even playing with my Son and Grandchildren over the Internet. A great way to keep in contact and have some fun!



4 out of 5 stars great, simple game   October 29, 2008
its just halo from the original xbox, simple, fun, competitive. the online works great
only thing bad is its an old game but thats not really a factor for me



4 out of 5 stars Great Game!   October 8, 2008
This is a great game with lots of action but its pretty hard to play on the keyboard, so be sure to get some sort of controller. there is lots of action and you dont even need a $70 video card to play because you can click on safe mode. have fun with it!


5 out of 5 stars Fun for teenagers   September 21, 2008
I bought this game for my 13 year old son who played it with his 9 year old cousin all summer long. He loves to go on line or just on the computer and play this game. He plays it every chance he can.


3 out of 5 stars Halo didn't fulfill my expectations   August 10, 2008
I remember the big hype about Halo, when it was released. I would have bought it right away if my machine had fufilled the minimum requirements. Lucky me, I had to wait until now and could get the game for a low price. Here is why:
The graphics are not great. Even for the time Halo was released, the textures are not too detailed and the landscape looks like cut from cardboard. Unreal did almost as well in 1998. The story is good enough with three parties, each stiving to achieve their own goals. Also, the use of vehicles makes the game some fun. But the rather lame and very linear construction of the levels don't live up to the possibilities.
Multiplayer might be great with MODs, otherwise it is just slow and boring.
It was ok for 10 bucks, but I recommend to get something better (e.g. Far Cry, Max Payne).
