Hi guys,

I'll make this short and sweet: Just got off the phone with Microsoft Pre-sales dept. The guy I spoke with said halo 2 vista's TENATIVE release date is

7/4/07. If you dont believe me..here is the OFFICAL microsoft development lifecycle webpage!

http://support.microsoft.com/lifecycle/?LN=en-us&p1=12429 &x=8&y=12

My intention is to STOP all the "delayed this ..and delayed that" topics...

Thanks,

Nathan Brown

Maybe this means when ALL markets will have had the game available for a little while, since it says "general availability date"...

This has to be a placeholder date, no game would launch on a national holiday, not to mention that day is a Wednesday, and we all know that the majority of games launch on Tuesdays.

What it is.

heh, looks like i probably won't be getting this game if it is released that late...

  • 05.07.2007 5:50 PM PDT

It is people like you that make people like me need medication.

I can guarantee you 100 percent that the date on that page is wrong.

No no no no no...

This Microsoft page is just saying the date when the product will have technical support. Its not the release date.

The release date is either tomorrow or around the 22nd.

Then why would the pre-sales rep tell me 7/4/07? You gotta understand..this is coming from a MICROSOFT pre-sales department rep? I would love for the game to come out on the 22nd of this month....but from what I've been told it doesn't look to good.

Yeah, thats probably when they plan on putting out their first patch. Its a page about when they will start support and end support, not release the game...
