As it stands, what games will run on Vista?

Vista is still in Beta 2, and at least seven months from retail launch, but we had to see how our XP and older, classic games worked on Vista. We tested games from GameRanking’s top-ten lists from the years 2000 to 2005, and we also tossed in a few notable games that were released prior to 2000 as well as a handful of games released this year.

There’s still a few that still do not work, but most do. Surprisingly, Half-Life 2 would not run, while Half-Life 2: Lost Cost would. They did not mention what build of Vista they used for testing, but it’s presumably Beta 2.
