For those of you too lazy to read the thread, know that there is no confirmation if the game is delayed, and there also has been no denial of the delay as well. We'll just have to wait and see on the 8th if it is.

3. we will just have to wait till Tuesday and see if it is or isnt (gaaa i hope it isnt i want to play it!!!)

1. I've looked back to page five and there is no such thread like mine

2. What, because Hired Gun hasn't said anything about it? Hired Gun usually says nothing about what the community asks for and for all we know their blogs could be written weeks behind.

3. No, because credible websites don't go around lying (especially when they say they officially got the word).

WOW!!!!.........

your # 1 already fell apart....... it is one the 1st page almsot @ the bottom.
tittle: halo 2 vista official delayed by NewO01 way to go.

2. that is true but it doesnt mean that the whole delay is true as well. im not saying that it hasnt happened or anything im just saying i dont believe it till i hear something official from bungie (i know unlikely)/microsoft/hired gun

3. it might not be that they are lying but mistaken or someone screwed up or something. and yes credible things do lie all the time. every heard of the New York Times? i can count many times they lied but yet they are still considered credible

Yeah, now I see his thread, chillax.

What is known for sure is that we don't know when H2V is coming out any more. We do know that at first two gaming stores changed their release dates to May 22nd. Then most of everything else just followed suit.

And you'll be waiting a long time to hear anything from Bungie. They don't care two s***s about this game. Considering how long it's taking Hired Gun to clarify this issue up to us as well, I'd say they don't care much about it as well. From this we can find something that IS certain; H2V probably won't be as impressive as we all wish it to be.

yeah im about ready to agree with you there ag.
if they do delay it to the 22nd im just gonna get shadowrun instead cuse it comes out close to that date (or supposed to from what ive heard) and it looks pretty cool. but o well only time will tell.

First of all, I'll say it again, the original "release date" on that article says February 28th... And I don't think we're talking about a 3 month delay here... Also, this could have been a prank letter sent to that site just for fun to see how people would react. This is basically the only site where a semi-official announcement was made. And, those stores might just be displaying the 22nd as the next SHIP date because their first batch was already totally pre-ordered and they're only gonna be able to manufacture more by the 22nd.

On the IGN website, they're still showing the countdown to Halo 2 on the top right corner. T-Minus 1 day 21 hours 54 minutes

Take a look

- Note, that's split up so that it's allowed :)

Agamemnon582bc, did you notice that GamePro does not say May 22th? It says Februray 28th... which lends even less credibility to them because that was NEVER EVER an official release date for H2V. Also, if the release date really is the 22nd why on earth does it say there is no specific date in the letter?! Your whole their being credible thing is now blown out of the water.

What it is.

Also, another raised question, is this has only been sent to GamePro. I don't see how only GamePro knows about this delay and other sites like IGN, and Gamespot haven't even mentioned it, and usually they are good with news.

well as i have said before in the other thread on this the article could be fudged or a bit of yellow journalism or like someone said above me a fake letter to them.
and if it HAD problems why weren't they mentioned in the reviews? you would think that the reviewers would note an issue with installation especially since this is the 1st game with tray and play.

and last but not least:
well lets just wait 1 day 9 hours 17 minutes 44secs to find out

Do you usually not read the whole thread and just the first post?

The Sunday morning circulars for Best Buy and Circuit City say Halo 2 will available Tuesday and Wednesday, respectively.

One time you called them credible, the other time you said they said May 22nd...both are false. They say February 28th, which is not a credible source of information. You never corrected yourself and yes I did read the whole thread.

It is delayed, guys. The circulars were wrong, and Best Buy has changed their release date to the 22nd. Oh well.

Okay, screw the link. Just find the Halo 2 PC product page, and click the $25 off offer on the side of the page and read the important note.

Ugh, why is it impossible to link on this website? Anyways, go back to the Halo 2 page at bestbuy.com and click "Save $25 Offer" right below the price and pre-order button. Read the first paragraph.
