Introduction
Halo the game was originally slated for the PC and Mac when suddenly the developer Bungie was taken over by Microsoft and Mr Gates deemed the game would be an "X-Box exclusive". X-Boxers everywhere drooled in anticipation and when it finally arrived in late 2001 it was highly praised by all as one of the best first person shooters on any platform. As a PC gamer I remember being slightly jealous. Where was the justice? Damn those console jockeys!
Well now it's happened - Halo: Combat Evolved has finally hit the PC courtesy of a console port by the guys at Gearbox. It brings with it a whole bunch of fun, action and…a range of performance issues? Oh well, nobody said being a PC gamer was easy. Slip into your mechanized suit as within these pages I provide you with all the resources necessary to get Halo running the fastest it possibly can on your PC.
Note: This guide refers to the latest version of Halo Version 1.0.8.616. Aside from a link to the latest patch, this guide has not been revised for several years.
