People constantly seem to forget that not everybody who is going to play Halo 2 Vista has played it before (extensively) on the Xbox or even owns an Xbox to begin with.

Yup, I played about the first 1.5 years it was out before I sold my xbox. And this will keep me occupied till H3 comes out.

Christ, did no one see this when it was first posted?
http://www.gamepro.com/news.cfm?article_id=111821
May 22nd. End. Of. Story.


The game is not necessarily coming out May 22nd. In fact, the article even says "Although the message does not specifically state how long this delay will be, retailers and other video game-related websites have already taken the liberty of extending the U.S. release to May 22nd, 2007." This doesn't mean that the game will be released on that day indefinitely (though, that isn't to say that it won't). They don't know the exact date of the release, so any date set by non-official entities is nothing but speculation at this point.

Cheers.

I see three words here WAY too often, "non-official" and "unofficial."

  • 05.05.2007 7:48 PM PDT

What it is.

^That's only two words. It would be more like, "non-official", "official", and "unofficial".

ME!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
i refuse to buy an xbox because u have to pay to play online and i dont like consoles that much i like the customization and performance on a PC. not to mention graphics mmmmmmmmmm graphics! *cough* crysis *cough*

and anyway the only retailer around me that has changed the date is amazon.com to the 22nd walmart is the 8th, circuit city is the 8th and best buy is the 9th (no idea why....)
it may be as simple as the ones that changed ran out of preorder stock and that is when they expect more. and this article may be a little bit fudged saying something about "official" from M$. they could have just seen that some places changed the date and boom wrote and article to try and sell magazines. (its called yellow journalism its been done before.) aloutgh im not denying the possibility that it has been delayed im saying it is unlikely that it is postponed due to no official word and a day before the release. but i may be proven wrong so...... (gaaa i dont want to be proven wrong)

The Sunday morning circulars for Best Buy and Circuit City say the game will be available Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively.

Magazines have never been a good indication of "true times" anyway because of the time it takes for them to be written, printed and distributed.

Theres a magazine that the wife was reading that was saying how someone will be trying their hardest in this weeks show... only problem... they left on the previous weeks show!

  • 05.06.2007 11:30 AM PDT

What it is.

The Best Buy ad says "Available Tuesday at 2:00PM¹ "
¹ - Excludes any product delay by manufacturer.

This might mean that it might not be there, hopefully it is. Because usually Best Buy is good with changing their dates, but this date they havent changed. MS isn't really talking so i am sure stores like Target, Best Buy, CC and others are pissed because they're not sure when they are receiving the game.

People believing a Best Buy Ad in a newspaper LOL.

Ever think that those were printed a couple days ago before the word of a delay was even released?

  • 05.06.2007 3:25 PM PDT

What it is.

^That's why i am sure stores are pissed because they haven't heard of the delay and are now going to be accused of false advertisement. GG MS, gg.

It's not coming out on the 8th. You can check Best Buy's Halo 2 page, and click the "Save $25 Offer" link right below the pre-order button, and then read the first paragraph. It says it won't be available until the 22nd.

  • 05.06.2007 3:41 PM PDT

What it is.

MS is a pack of flaming retards that can't get their -blam!- straight. I heard it had nothing to do with "the installation/technical issues" rather it is a manufacturing error. Whatever, Halo 3 Beta here we come, 10 days to go.
