Here come the GOOD games

I can't tell you what arrived on my desk this afternoon, but it starts with a "Halo" and ends with a "2." Oh, OK, you guessed it: It's Halo 2! For Windows Vista! As most of you probably know by now, Halo 2 will be one of the first titles to support Microsoft's new Live Anywhere feature, which will link your Xbox Live identity to your Windows Vista games. Game play in this early review copy is excellent, even on the graphics-deprived business workstation I use at my desk. I'm going to slap this disc into my Nvidia GeForce 8800GTX-equipped gaming rig when I get home, and I'll let ya'll know if it's as great as I suspect it is. Look for a full review in the August/September issue of Windows Vista Magazine.
