I am thinking about coming back to Halo (map exploring only) but I cant get halo to run on windows 8. It installs correctly but when I try to launch the game nothing happens. Help?

Are you running the 1.10 patch?

I run Halo fine on Windows 8, using only Run as admin :

I wonder if there will be compatibility problems when win10 arrives.

I hope not since, essentially MS are asking $250 for a win7 + 8 combo.
