Four new Halo reviews today listed at Blue's News: Armchair Empire, PC Gameworld, Gamehelper Newswire, and VideogamesLife. Ratings ranged from 7 out of 10 from Gamehelper to 94 out of 100 from VideogamesLife. All were relatively positive aside from the usual gripes: no coop, and system requirements to play on the highest settings are... well, high.

Given that the Xbox was the state of the art in graphics just two years ago, and only played Halo at 640x480, I'm having a difficult time understanding why everybody thinks they can play Halo at 1600 x 1200 with all the bells and whistles on with anything other than a completely top-of-the-line system including a video card bought yesterday for a month's rent and using beta drivers. Come on, are you guys nuts?
