Definitely, but IMHO the single player story in HL2 was pretty uninspired compared to HL1.  Hopefully HL3 will raise the bar.

Never played the console version, but the Halo 2 on the PC is pretty frikkin sweet.  Not the Best Game Ever (tm), but pretty frikkin sweet.

Slightly O/T, but I can't help but laugh a little at the MOD's title of "Make it Pretty."   Really?  As if Oblivion was world famous for having horrible graphics or something.  Pretty-ER, maybe.  :)

Friend of mine's running Vista 32-bit w/ 4GB (well, actually 3.4 or so) of RAM.  Haven't seen any issues with gaming.  Seems to run just fine.

Works great - played COD2 on my friend's Vista box.  No problems whatsoever.

Umm...er...it's a video game.  I try to reserve being scared for things like seeing a shark while swimming, or being bitten by a rattlesnake.  Or maybe even finding out the girl I went out with last night has syphillis.  The game was certainly well done, but I'm gonna have a hard time calling it "scary".

Different type games, AFAIC, but as far as which one I preferred - I guess I'd go with STALKER.

Definitely go with a Core2 Duo.  I'd look at the 6600 if I were you - way more bang for the buck.  And, if performance is your primary consideration - DO NOT upgrade to Vista.

 I actually like Vista, but there's no denying that it's way more resource intensive than XP.
