It's not terrible ffs, it's half decent. It's worth a play, as it's better than a lot of FPS's that have come out recently, XIII for instance.

The voice acting is good, and the enemy AI is half decent.

Plus I like the comedy muppet voices of the smaller Covenant.

:p

It seems fashionable to slate the PC version of Halo, but I love it! It's got the most engaging story in a game for a long time (beats Max Payne 2 for story).

Peeps here have said it looks dated, and I'm surprised. Parts where huge dropships appear overhead, smoothly swoop down before lifting off again I found breathtaking.

Much, much better than the standard Quake III Arena engine stuff that's been knocking about.

Shame it crashes whenever it tries to load a certain level so I can't progress, BUT EVEN THAT hasn't put me off the quality of the game.





edit: Typo! I said Quake II Arena! AHAHAHAHAHA! Oh, man what a mistake-a to make-a! Oh dear-o-dear.... AHAHAHAH!

The level's called Betrayals and the crash occurs shortly after you fly the Banshee for the first time and have to land on a high ledge. I dismount, go through a door, follow a corridor round two corners, the 'Loading' message comes up and I crash to desktop with a 'Gathering Exception data' message.

This happens even running in Halo's Safe Mode.

:eek:

YOU HAVE INFORMATION PANNA YES? HELP ME.

I didn't really find Halo anything special, but then again I haven't played MP2.

Oh well...

Finished Max Payne 2 last night. It is a touch short and pretty easy.

I played one of them dead man walking levels where you have to stay alive as long as possible and lasted over 5 mins on the first map (courtyard?) on my first go. Is this good?

Oh hang on, I don't care cos I'm deleting it now....

It took me longer to complete this (mainly because I didn't just sit and play it till it was finished), still I agree it felt very short.

Looking forward to full mods of this game, and enjoying trying to stay alive more than 6 minutes in DMW mode.

Does anyone have problems with sound in Max Payne 2?

I tried running the game with "EAX Environmental Effects" and "Multi-channel sound" on, and although it sounds gorgeous for a short period of time - it starts crackling and going quiet pretty soon after.

If I run it in "normal" mode (i.e. without either of the two options above on) then its fine.

Any thoughts? Running a SB Live! with "digital only" SPDIF output, on a Intel P4.
