Product Reviews

Halo 2 was released to eager Xbox owners over three years ago, and finally Microsoft has brought it to the PC - if your PC is running Vista. As super-soldier Master Chief, you slip into an armoured suit to shoot the heck out of a bunch of misshapen aliens who are invading Earth. It was riveting on Xbox three years ago, but against the cream of PC shoot-'em-ups in 2007, it isn't. The graphics are poor by PC standards, the game plays identically to the Xbox version (albeit on a mouse and keyboard rather than gamepad), and it's all just a bit old.
