Product Description:

You are the last of your kind. Bred for combat, built for war. You will fight on foot, in vehicles, in the air and beneath the surface of a mysterious alien ring orbiting in the depths of space. Recognized as one of the greatest achievements in video game entertainment, the Xbox version of Halo has already sold over 3 million units and continues to be a top seller. The Macintosh version adds 16-person online multiplayer, new vehicles, new weapons, new maps, customizable multiplayer games, the precision of playing with a mouse and keyboard and more.

What's new in this version:

Mac Halo is now compatible with PC Halo multiplayer games for version 1.02 and 1.03.
A new "NV Shaders" rasterizer path has been added for players with nVidia GeForce 3 Ti, GeForce 4 Ti, or GeForce 5200 fx video hardware and Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther). Players with these configurations will notice a dramatic change in image quality when using this new feature. Earlier versions of Halo only supported advanced shader capabilities on graphics cards made by ATI.
Many Full-screen anti-aliasing (FSAA) glitches have been fixed for use in Mac OS 10.3.2.
Servers now have a complete team killing / banning system that should significantly reduce team killing online.
Servers� name now supports 65 characters for dedicated servers and 32 characters for client-hosted servers and now accepts an extended character set.
Chat text length has been extended to 64 characters.
In-game scoreboard now displays every client's ping.
In-game scoreboard now displays your # of assists.
Teams are now persisted for the next game when map cycling occurs.
Map Reset: It's now possible to restart the current game without requiring the server to map cycle.
Assault: There is now a timer to keep track of how much time is left in your offense / defense round.
Finally, although previous versions of Halo did not require you to have the Halo CD inserted to play the game, illegal online downloading of Halo has forced MacSoft now to require the Halo for Macintosh CD be inserted to play the game in version 1.03 and all future versions.

Never had a problem with my Intel MacBook Pro 17" until I installed Snow Leopard. Now multiplayer freezes at random times.

IMPORTANT: Halo owners who have not upgraded to an Intel-based Mac do not need to upgrade their version of Halo. They will still be able to play network games against owners of the Universal and PC versions.
