Subject: CONFUSED! Halo 2 for Vista release date

So I have read up and down every thread today about Halo 2 for Vista's launch date. Half of the people say tomorrow (May 8th) and the other half are saying the 22nd. I have gone to every site the Games for Windows site says to visit to purchase products and again the date is split.

Best Buy - May 9th

Target - May 8th

Wal-Mart - May 8th

CompUSA - May 23rd

Amazon.com - May 22nd

Can we get a Mod or someone from Bungie to comment? It would really help clear up this confusion.

Why don't you pick up the telephone and call your local Best Buy, Target, Wal-Mart, or CompUSA and ask them? That would be a surefire way to clear up this confusion...

  • 05.07.2007 4:39 PM PDT

Slaying noobs since 2007.

I honestly don't know, my suggestion is to wait and see.

CONFUSED!


Join the club =/

I'm confused as well. The only official word has been May 8th. But Microsoft or Bungie haven't done anything to clarify the contradicting news reports.

what is even more confusing still is the people who are flip flopping the date more than john kerry and hillary clinton on their political ideologies (other than being socialists). walmart this morning said the 22nd now they are saying tommorow!! AGHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHHH!
well i will find out tomorrow. *kneels and prays for it to be tomorrow*

  • 05.07.2007 4:56 PM PDT

ya i just called my local best buy and to them, they are saying mabey tommorow but the computer says 2:00pm on the 9th wednesday?
beats me?

Just to add to the confusion, I went to Gamespot.com, and they say that H2V is now in stores!

  • 05.07.2007 5:00 PM PDT

What it is.

Like Bungie knows anything, they leave it up to Hired Gun. Hell, Bungie is useless as far as H2V is concerned.

  • 05.07.2007 5:04 PM PDT

lmao , so get this! i just recently posted that best buy said the 8th but should be the 9th at 2:00pm. well i decided to call wal-mart and now there claiming it's the 10th? wtf is going on?

The moderators of this forum are volunteers for the Bungie.net group, they won't know anything about a port done by an in-house game studio of Microsoft. In addition, Bungie has nothing to do with the port of Halo 2 to PC, so they won't know anything either. The only one with official information would be Microsoft, and Hired Gun-- but they aren't talking.

No one knows anything; all we can do is wait for information to be released by Microsoft. That, or see if the game is in fact released in the next few days by certain retailers.

I just hope the world doesn't end before the damn game comes out =P

Cheers.

well according to the mayans we are all gonna die December 23rd 2011. also the lack of people (M$) saying something means it is a rumor and the retailers just ran out or something is so horribly wrong that they dont want to talk about it
mabye the code they wrote it in for pc makes the covenant and flood jump out of the screen and eat ure sole (yes the shoe kind) lol

but walmart this morning had the date as the 22nd and now has it as the 8th so we will find out tomorrow. hopefully ill see some of you online!

Hmm... maybe because I'm visiting this webpage from Canada... although this wasn't Walmart.ca, which doesn't even list halo 2 vista. Futureshop and bestbuy are still showing the 8th, altho futureshop is selling for $39.99 and best buy is for $59.99...
