Hey all. Bungee says that their port of Halo 2 is only going to work on microsoft's new OS only. Now to me this seems like an outrage. :angry: Microsoft's new OS will require more, Repeat, MORE CPU and RAM then any other OS that has been released to date. So now my PC is either going to need an upgrade (it already does because of BF2) or I will lag in the game. Now I do know that a UT2004 map pack required XP to install but that can be fixed with a little registry modifaction (don't try that at home). Microsoft has been doing betas of this new OS and I know that it may look better then the previous versions of windows but that beauty comes at a cost of more CPU and RAM. Is it just me or is this just a way for microsoft to push their new OS? I say it is but I think for a moment and realize that I am running windows XP. I don't run their office suite though (too slow and CPU and RAM demanding). I think that if microsoft wants to keep things from being pirated (like halo 1 for PC was) they should look to 3rd parties such as starforce (version 3 is hell to crack) and not force users into a more demanding, although nicer looking, OS.
