Bungie reworked many textures which were forced to be scaled down due to hardware limitations onn the Xbox. Playing Halo 2 on the 360 only adds a bit more anti-aliasing.

Nice. Its the same with HALO on pc it does look alot better. Plus they used some better shaders in the PC version. Halo2 doesnt look anything near DX10 but looks swish.

Did anyone look at the pics lol? They zoomed in and out on every pic to make the PC look better. Go look for yourself. The gamespot people suck. I mean they don't even know how do do a proper test. And the other on is probably on a TV everyone knows Monitor > TV. Seriously good look they zoom the pic in or out to make the xbox look worse.

Not good enough for me to buy Vista and a copy of it.
So we have more polygons and better textures, if thats the only thing that has improved in 2 years to hell with Halo 2 on the PC I can play it on the Xbox for ages already!

If you ask me it looks like sheit, outdated as hell. I dont know why but its just visible that this game wasnt a PC game originally. I had the same feeling with Halo on the PC. It just didnt look as good as PC developed shooters.

The Vista only crap I think is just a cheap trick to get us to buy Vista in order to let us play this 2 year old Xbox game

Sorry guys, I really like Halo but this is just stupid
