In what is a surprise announcement, to me anyway, Microsft today said that Halo 2 will be making an appearance on their upcoming PC operating system Windows Vista. Now don't get me wrong, I'm sure Halo 2 was a great game on the Xbox but Halo 1 for the PC was the biggest pile of dung I've played for many a year, this better be much improved or nobody will buy it.

Oh, Windows Vista is rumoured to be due on either the 30th of November or the 1st of December this year, it wouldn't be all that shocking if Halo 3 for Xbox 360 came out at roughly the same time.

"Halo 2," the game that redefined first-person combat and multiplayer action for millions of gamers worldwide, is set to explode onto PCs exclusively for Windows Vista. "Halo 2" for Windows Vista will be developed by a dedicated Microsoft Game Studios team in partnership with Bungie Studios.

Only for Windows Vista, "Halo 2" will offer gamers both the single-player campaign and multiplayer experience of the original, as well as the additional maps offered in the "Halo 2 Multiplayer Map Pack." Gamers will also have the exciting opportunity to build, create and customize their own multiplayer levels.
