3 hours of installation, 2 hours of driver updating and my PC had Vista ready to roll…like Ludacris just pimped out my operating system.

6 hours and 2 crashes later, I’m wondering where I put my warranty. Apparently Windows Vista has some bugs to work out, but that isn’t stopping Microsoft from releasing Halo 2 (for PC) as a Vista exclusive.

Already, fans are taking a hard blow as Bungie has con-firmed that Xbox players will not be able to play with or against players on a PC. This is contrary to what Bill Gates said at the Las Vegas Consumer Electronics Show. Bill Gates, lie? Certainly not to sell some soft-ware…

Now, with the release coming up in May, Halo 2 fans are going to find it hard to play a game on a FREQUENTLY failing operating system.

The cult that Microsoft has built around the Halo franchise may be appealing to any frat boy with an Xbox 360, but to true FPS players and all PC owners this is a sucker punch to the kidneys.

This whole “Vista Exclusive” thing is going to get worse before it gets better.
