Publication IGN Score 78 Comment Windows Vista version On February 9, 2006, Nick Baron announced that Halo 2 would be released on PC exclusively for the Windows Vista operating system. The game was ported by a small team at Microsoft Game Studios (codenamed Hired Gun) who worked closely with Bungie Studios. On December 7, 2006, Microsoft visited IGN and revealed plans, as part of their Games for Windows brand campaign, to have Halo 2 be playable from disc via streaming during its own PC installation. Microsoft calls this streaming technology Tray and Play and claims that players will be able to start the game within two minutes of placing it into their DVD drives. This behavior attempts to mirror the experience of console gaming (where no installation is required) and is unique in the PC market to date. It was announced that Halo 2 for Windows Vista would be in stores before the end of 2006, but this was pushed back due to the push of the Windows Vista launch into 2007. Also announced was an exclusive map editor that will allow players to create custom content. Halo 2 for Windows Vista will link with the Games for Windows - Live network and have some interoperability with the Xbox Live network, as stated in the new FAQ section of Windows Vista flavor of the popular game on Bungie's official website. Bungie has stated that it will also have networking features of its own, resembling Halo PC's inclusion of free internet capabilities. Halo 2 for Windows Vista was originally scheduled for release on May 8, 2007, but was pushed back to May 29th. This delay was apparently due to the insertion of nudity into the game via a "content error". Microsoft will be offering patches to remove the nude content and is revising the boxes to reflect this. Many retailers were not given the notification in time and have sold copies to consumers since as early as May 20th in a few United States Circuit City stores. The offending nudity was a photograph of a male's bare bottom (presumably of a Microsoft or Bungie employee) which appeared as a ".ass" error when using the map editor in Halo 2 for Windows Vista.
