Default OT: Halo for PC

Well I was thinking about buying Halo for PC (now that its dropped in price...), and was wondering if any of you had played it, and what you'd thought of it. Will it run on an "average" system (because that's what I have!), and is it worth the money? Any opinions would be appreciated. Thanks.

It's amazing on the XBox. Haven't seen the PC port though, but I imagine it would be better, what with mouse control. Not sure about the system specs, though.

I would say check out the system requirements and if they fit go for it, I really doubt you'll be disappointed.

There's a demo. I'm not a real judge of FPS's, though, not being good at them.

I have *heard* that the PC port has some problemes on some systems, though that may all be patched now.
down load the demo and try that.
I have a fairly high end system and it ran well, the graphics are nice. it wasent realy my type of game though, I prefer a FPS where you dont have to empty three magazines into a bad guy before they die...

Um...Where was tribes mentioned? Seems a bit of a non-sequitor.
