Damn, now I'm not so certain. I checked the OP of the MCC thread, and it was someone else who wrote Halo 2 would be 1080p/60, and nowhere did Frank confirm or deny anything specifically this and IGN's wording says every other game will run at 1080p/60fps, so I'm not sure.
I'd imagine Halo 2 would run at 1080p/60, but I'm not sure a resolution switch happens like that. Maybe both H2A and H2 are 1328x1080/60 frames.

There's no reaseon for OG H2 to be the same size. You can switch resolution when you switch framebuffer.
On the subject of resolution, the quality of scaling now means the more pixels, the sharper the image, even if it's an odd resolution here. AA is more important along with FPS.
I find it good for speed reading but if you want to quote multiple posts it's a pain. Overall it's a nice interface though. Up until a couple months ago I only post via mobile since I didn't have a PC.
I only really use it for sending xbox messages but it's a nice app.
Perfect
Nice avatar
I thought it was a clear sign that these threads are really just the HaloGAF community and we only sometimes talk about Halo.

Who is doing the MCC OT? I assume someone already has it, but if they don't I could start working on something.
I'd be up for that - I like the idea of putting Halo 4 in the losers' bracket haha.
Combining all four of the games is definitely the way to. Maybe do best of three across H1, 2 and 3 or something?

One of these days my awesome OTs will come back, one of these days...
Maybe Halo 5 then.
Maybe Halo 5 then.
Someone just copy/paste Kyle's epic OT
Well, seeing as real 1080p is some 45% more pixels than 1328x1080, they would have a point.
I'm betting both are 1328x1080. It would be much easier to deal with from a developer standpoint.
You have a point. Well, if the netcode is patched well enough.
No.
Because it's a crappy port. Could be a corrupted save, could be any number of things.
It's Vista's way of rolling it's eyes because it's like the third time someone crashes a flying vehicle into a solid wall slightly below a ledge and somehow climbs a smooth flat surface to safety.
I don't know why it happens
Ouch

Try this mein freund:

Also, if that doesn't work try to run the game in compatibility mode for Vista. I assume you don't own the Operating System "Vista", but you have Windows 7? Then run the game "As Administrator." Some people say to install an older version of Games for Windows Live: http://www.sevenforums.com/gaming/252972-how-get-halo-2-working-under-windows-7-a.html

fracas(ugh) better have that OT ready cuz we're gonna zoom past 20k once those IGN Day One Playlists come out
SMG starts in 2014
SMG starts in 2014
So what's the deal with those "weapon sets" that we've seen for the anniversary multiplayer? Do we know if they are across all gametypes?

Frankles confirmed that it was a left over bug or left over code that will not be in the final game. He also mentioned that SMG starts are not a thing in larger maps.
Achievements are being released too today right? They better have something for beating all 4 games on legendary alone.

I just realized...
is that a Homestuck avi?
Radical. Though I don't mind loadouts that only let you choose your primary weapon in Halo, it's good to hear we won't just be spraying ineffectually at each other.
HaloGaf is at it's best when it can talk about Halo lol
Reallly REALLLLLLLLY hoping for a competitive esports playlist that is 343's rules and not some other three-letter league's.
Could not agree with you more. I see no problem with being able to choose to start with a Battle Rifle OR a Carbine, or in another case SMG OR Plasma Rifle. But beyond that, it becomes problematic. You should NEVER be able to start with something that's a one-hit kill (Plasma Grenade, Boltshot, etc.)

When Stinkles was rebuking me earlier for my ignorance (like a good Halo Rabbi should), he mentioned this:
(Bold emphasis is my own)
If there is such a way to play a more "pure"/classic rendition of the game in matchmaking, I would imagine he's hinting at a competitive playlist. Not to mention the e-sports scene is heavily integrated into the Halo Channel so I see this as an even stronger possibility.
Best OT ever.
Halo 2's Vista Banshee controls feel pretty weird with mouse and keyboard.
Hmhh, I will have to look into this. I hope it's the Windows Essential thing (what the fuck by the way) or a corrupted save file, that only affects that mission.
Thing is, if I run it as Admin, I'll lose my savefile and have to start over. I don't want to start over for the 4th time on Legendary... -.-
Thanks everyone.

He claimed it a year ago? Jesus.
You're my favorite cephalopod
I despised the Boltshot and hated when people spawned with the Plasma Pistol. Ruinous for close quarters and vehicle gameplay.
Gears of War and Crackdown got claimed too.
It would be better if we actually knew a release date before somebody claimed it :\

Yep
Why?
That reminds me. I should add Halo 2 Vista to the list of games to buy for the PC i'm building this weekend.
