Product Description: Halo

In the most obvious sense, the "Halo" is a space station built in the shape of an enormous rotating wheel. As the wheel spins, it creates centripetal ... force that mimics gravity on its inner rim. An entire world exists inside this wheel, with huge developed structures and vast, open landscapes. But something else exists in the Halo as well - something mysterious and powerful. All that is really known is that a force of alien invaders is desperate to find it and they are leaving death and destruction in the wake of their search. This mystery of Halo must be solved and the aliens must be vanquished, before they find what they are looking for and destroy us all.

The action in Halo is squad-based. While gamers have lots of options when making decisions about the individual characters they will play, many missions are best accomplished through teamwork and certain multiplayer capabilities are supported with this in mind. The 3D engine's default view switches between first-person and third person, depending on the situation. Much of the action takes place in the wide open spaces inside the mammoth space station, with no level breaks or load times as the player moves from one place to another.

Some of the basic themes and plot points in Halo may be familiar to gamers who have played Marathon, Bungie's successful first-person shooter which was released in 1992 for the Macintosh platform. Among other elements, Marathon is known for intelligent level design and a deep, intriguing story. Though Halo should not be considered a sequel to Marathon, the two share common plot elements and have related back-stories. Initial development of Halo was done simultaneously for the Macintosh, the PC, and the Xbox. ~ T.J. Deci, All Game Guide

    Pros: great Time

    Cons: computer Requesits

    The game Halo is rated as one of the 5 greatest games of all time and now that it is on the computer i can pay all all day when my friends arnt all around. I played halo for x-box for a long time to the point where me and my friends went to some of the local tournys we ran the place out of contestents we won so much. So i think im qualified to say that halo pc is every bit of game that is was on x-box. As for the requirements on the computer they are not that bad. The screen lag is only bad if ou do not set the fps to your computer standards. ...

    Pros: Features, levels, everything

    Cons: lag time on internet sometimes

    Overall a very good game. The graphics are very good and the game is very addicting. However, I have noticed that sometimes there is a significant lag while playing internet games and I have cable. I think this is due to the server though. Anyway, you should buy this game. Very few games can top this one. ...
