Halo 2 Vista info dump
Tons more Halo 2 Vista info coming out of the Game Developers Conference - a hands-on at Gamespot (thanks, LoneRanger 2.5), a preview at Shacknews, a hands-on at GamePro, and a summary of new features at Game Informer. Things you might not know yet (or that have changed in recent months):
- The game is expected out 'later this year' (originally, it was going to ship at the same time Vista did)
- A DX9 video card is all you need (there are no DX10-specific features)
- Your Xbox Live account that works with an Xbox works with Halo 2 Vista, too
- A Silver account is enough to play Halo 2 Vista (it's free)
- H2V will be the first PC game that allows players to set up dedicated Live servers
- H2V will ship with a map editor
- You can use mouse and keyboard, or game controller, or (and this is odd) mouse and game controller
- No online coop
- No splitscreen play
There's more info in all four articles - go check 'em out! (Louis Wu 12:38:36 UTC)
