Yes, it costs twice as much as the Windows version, and it took a while to come to the Mac... but it's here now, and it's still worth the price!

Graphics looks much better than the Xbox version, and best of all, you can play online for FREE (unlike Xbox Live).

Btw, the best mouse for this is NOT the MS one, but the Logitech G7.

Wow Halo, I have had it for the Xbox for years, and fun's come with it ever since. Then I heard that they had made it for the computer. I had an old windows 98 that froze all the time so I wasn't very interested, I just heard that there was the new flamethrower as a weapon, and with my computer there was no chance I would get Halo or ever run it. Then one day I got a Mac Mini(thats quite a leap)! And then I remembered about that old classic, Halo! I quickly installed the game and started playing the campaign right away. The graphics were great and all the intense game play really blew the game away. Then I decided to play some multiplayer, and get the new flamethrower. I was impressed beyond my expectations because not only was there the flamethrower but the fuelrodcannon, six new maps,banshees,rocket launcher warthogs(like in Halo2), and the shade. All these were amazing to me because the xbox version didn't have any of these aspects in there multiplayer. The only bug that I found in the game is that when I save a multiplayer game it freezes up so even though it saves it I get confused on how to exit the game since everything freezes but one you exit it it comes back to normal. And if you have an apple mouse then it will be very tedious to throw the grenades because it requires the right clicker, so once you get Halo go out and buy yourself a Microsoft mouse. Even though this game has a few minor flaws it's still a beautifully made game. This one is truly one of Bungie's greatest works yet.



Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Could this change FPS for macs?
Hello, welcome to my review. I play a lot of Halo on my mac and this is what i can say:
1) Sound-5/5: This game has great sound. You can hear all the gun fire and voices from the computer players on campaign mode. On Multiplayer, it's so life like so it feel like you are actually in the game.

2)Graphics-4.5/5: This game sets the bar for Mac games. Yes the people don't look to realistic, but once you play with other people in their SPARTAN suits this games graphics just blew the roof. All the guns look like there supposed to be so you don't have to waste your time picking it up to find out what it actually is.

3)Controls-3.5/10: The controls are really confusing at first but once you get them down they're a piece of cake. I wouldn't recommend changing them when you get the game, because it'll just make it more difficult to play. The best kind of mouse to use for this game is a Microsoft mice, since it has the two click so you can shoot and throw grenades. The one click Apple mice are harder to use, because you have to press control then click for the grenades. **You can even buy a gamepad for it. I would highly recommend it.**

4)Multiplayer-5/5: In my opinion this is the best multiplayer game for the Mac. They have all the original game modes in Halo and Halo 2 for the Xbox such as: Capture the Flag, Slayer, and King of The Hill just to list a few. They also have your favorite multiplayer stages: Blood Gulch, Side Winder, ect.

5)Gameplay-4.5/5: This has great gameplay. You are a SPARTAN an undefeatable warrior. Like all futuristic games, you must save your planet from Covenant (aliens) invasion. You get powerful guns used by the humans and you are also able to pick up the Covenant's weapons. This is also based on objectives or missions, some include: protect the area from the Covenants, infiltrate the base protect fellow teammates. This also has a great tutorial level just to get you ready for the real stuff. A very well laid out game.

6)Overall-5/5: This is a must buy if you enjoy computer gaming on Macs, especially if your into First Person Shooter games.

Thank you for taking the time to read my review on Halo: Combat Evolved on the Mac.

A great game that lived up to my expectations. graphics are a little blurry when you zoom, and it will lag sometimes, but otherwise perfect.
