Halo: Combat Evolved

Good but not great.

User Rating: 8.1 | Halo: Combat Evolved PC

Halo for PC is still a fun game but has lost a lot of its wow power over the years. If you have never played or beaten it before it is worth buying. If you already have it for Xbox then, unless you want it for the online play, it is not worth buying. Also the framerate on my computer is pretty crappy unless you drop the resolution and detail. It may just be because I have a PCI videocard. The controls are great so don't worry about needing a game pad. If you have dial up the online multiplayer lags horribly also. My computer has: 2.4 Ghz 512mb ram 128mb Geforce FX 5500 PCI videocard

  Essentially, it's the same game as the Xbox version, but still worth a go for newcomers or hardcore Halo fans alike.
