>>Download from Filefront

If you got a fast PC with a good video card I highly recommend downloading it, at least for the full 16 player multiplayer Wink

I grabbed it yesterday afternoon and I wasn't impressed. Plus, it ran like shit on my system. I also didn't like the fact that I couldn't configure the controls to my liking.

Sixteen people? Why would I do that when I could be playing Desert Combat on a 64 player server?

16 players is good enough for me...hey, its even a fun game to play with 3 of your friends (if you have an xbox)

and if you have at least a 128mb vid it should run decent, that is if you updated your drivers and toned down some of your settings

on a side note, I can't believe i would say this, but I'm actually getting better accuracy with the xbox controller

Sixteen people doesn't cut it for me, unless I'm playing with a group of people who actually understand the meaning of the work "teamwork." Of course, teamwork is as synonymous with online gaming as blizzard is with Imperial Valley.

I'm not gonna give you an itemized list of my system specs, but I will say that, with my current setup, Half-Life 2 and DOOM III will have no problems running on my system with maximum settings enabled. That said, there is no excuse for Halo PC's lame performance.
