When is this going to be coming out, any ideas?

Sigh. Its out now as a Windows For Games title and will only ever be available for Windows Vista. I strongly doubt any rumours that it will be released on xp will turn out to be true.
Yeah, it probably won't be released though there are methods to run the Vista version on XP but I'm not sure of the legality so I'm saying nothing.
Apparently some company called Falling Leaf Systems is planning on releasing some special program in July, which is probably what you've heard about. No idea who there are or why they are any different from the hackers that have already done their job, though.
lol couldnt get it working, they are stupid having it just for vista, trying to push people to use an os they dont want
... So you bought Halo 2 without realising it was Vista only?
yup lol
Ouch! Perhaps you could flog it on fleabay or something!
yea, i did download the xp patch but it didnt work ,anyone used 1 that works?
I read of a working XP patch on Megagames. They tested it and said it was working.

It says that nobody got the Falling leaf one to work, but that one by NoGrp does indeed work for Halo 2. It also mentions how to get Shadowrun working on XP.
"The Halo 2 hack, released by NoGrp, has been tested by MegaGames and confirmed to be working flawlessly (apart from the intro movie not playing)."
"Shadowrun fans can now enjoy it on Windows XP, Thanks to "oldschool cracker" Razor 1911"
well i tried it and wen i double clik the exe it just opens and closes?
dont know why?
No idea. I dont have Halo 2, so I cant verify it, but I cant imagine Megagames would write that without knowing for sure it works. Are you sure you did everything as per instructions?
Try the Megagames forums, they're pretty good for this kind of stuff :)
yea, ill try again and have a tinker
thanks guys :D will keep you posted

You'll have to filter through the stupid comments though. Demonoid have a working oatch aswell apparently.
lol thanks :D
Not a clue, just going off what I read on Eurogamer. I've never rated Halo, so didn't bother to follow it up.
