AHAHAHAHAHHAhAHAHAHAHHAHAhAhAHHAHAHHA

Halo 1 was a horrible resource hog on PCs why should Halo 2 be any different?
Given Halo 2 is essentialy the same technology, even if they fuck that one up, hardware specs have already gone up and computers now can handle the game just fine.

How many people but hard-core gamers are going to bother upgrading their system just so they can play Halo 2?

Um, hate to burst your bubble, but I played Halo 1 for PC on a modern system with a beefy card and RAM far in excess of their recommended requirements. It STILL ran like shit, and I had to turn down a ton of options in order to get smooth play.
Do not meddle in the affairs of insomniacs, for they are cranky and can do things to you while you sleep.
