I abosolutely love halo so I installed it on both of my G4's (Graphite/1.4GHz/Radeon8500 and Quicksliver/Dual1GHz/GeForce?)

Halo was able to run about the same on both machines, and quickly became my most played mac game (previously Spearhead). However when i upgraded my Quicksilver G4 to the ATI 9700 Halo became the Halo it was meant to be in all its beauty (and shiny-ness). By selecting "Vertex Shaders and ATI pixel" halo became the most gorgeous game ever to grace my G4.

Why doesn't my Radeon 8500 have that option, it's still higher than the minimum 7500 so why doesn't it work?
