Shame considering it would have been nice to try my XPS out. They say halo 3 will out for XBox in late-September, will the same apply to for the PC?

Any game you reccomend for the PC, that would be good on a Vista and more importantly a XPS? FM07 works great as usual.

Depends what kind of game you're after really. Halo 2 still got 3 stars, so it's obviously a decent enough game. Just compared to the likes of Half-Life 2 and STALKER, it's a step behind.

Ok thanks. Never played Half-Life 2 or STALKER; hence, no comparison. Just want to test the Vista system out, plus you can never really test a system with games like FM07 or Tiger Woods Golf.

Only games that are Vista specific out at the moment are Halo 2 and Shadowrun, though more will pop up as time goes on. The problem is, what company out there is going to want to create a game that can only be played by a tiny percentage of PC gamers that have already upgraded?

If you want a real system tester, and you love your RTS games, go for Supreme Commander. Such a stunning looking game!

Thanks again. I had to Google "RTS games", right-time-strategy games.
