Halo for the PC - VGF

What specs do I need to play this game? I can't play it, so what's a good video card to at least play it on 800x600?

I just checked the Microsoft Website and the system requirements are:
* Microsoft® Windows® 98SE/Me/XP/2000
* PC with 733 MHz equivalent or higher processor
* 128 MB of system RAM
* 1.2 GB available hard disk space
* 8x speed or faster CD-ROM drive
* 32 MB T&L capable video card required
* Sound card, speakers or headphones required for audio
* Microsoft Mouse or compatible pointing device
* 56.6 Kbps or better modem or LAN for online play; broadband to run a server

You can try out a demo by going to http://www.microsoft.com/games/halo/downloads.asp

Sorry, I must've missed this topic.

It's really not all that hardware-intensive. You should be able to run it fine, as long as you have a decent computer.

Well, I found the problem I've been having with the game and it turns out that the graphics card I have right now isn't compatable with Halo. I'll get a better one soon.

You don't need to spend a ton of money to get it up and running. You can probably find a decent one for under 100 bucks.

Yeah, a graphics card to run Halo shouldn't be too hard to find... a 32 MB card isn't exactly expensive.
