What it is.

Kid keeps on trying and trying...

One thing that weirds me out is the 27 mark isnt the exact same the pic? The textures are a bit deiiferent and the angle is different as well! More to see but still to prove it i would really like to see the main menu of the game?

  • 05.08.2007 6:48 PM PDT

Actually even better than a pic of the main menu would be a link to your achievments made? Oh but wait you have got no points at all? you have plenty of time to go through halo 2 vista on Normail difficulty in 5 minutes? Your achievement would appear whether or not Live isnt available?

Oh, just to clear this up, having roamed around the maps on the LAN setting, the two new Xbox Halo 2 maps are included, thankfully!


That's where you messed up. If you hadn't said that, I would've almost believed you. The new Halo 2 Xbox maps are not included in Halo 2 Vista.

You see that big red dot in the bottom right that says uplift in his "screenshot"? Maybe that's used to cover up the GameVideos.com logo? Maybe? Just maybe?

Question.

How is it that your "H2V" screenshots are totally blurry, whereas we could clearly read the text on your first image, in the freaking windows taskbar?

I'm finished in this thread now. ;)

Yes, it's a big fake. The reasoning for the thread was a joke on Xfire, which led to me actually trying to pull it off for the challenge and laughs.

It's nothing more than a prank to liven the boards up, and it worked.

I tried to pull the image down as soon as the mistakes were noted (I wasn't the only MAW goer in on this, but I won't name names, except Master Kim because he told me to =) ) but it had already been saved elsewhere and picked apart.

Anyone who knows me knows I'm not in the US, and couldn't have possibly got the game from Circuit City to start. Heck, I'll get the game after you all will, but nothing I care about.

Nothing more than a thread designed for a bit of fun, and it was nice to see some getting the joke and carrying it on anyway. ;)

For those who can't smile at this, lighten up. It's a game, the thread was a game, a nice break for the torrent of "Will my PC run the game?" and "OMGS RELEASE DATE?!" I don't seek fame/attention or whatever, but fun is always good!

Oh, and to LightningXCE, because it was a low res video and Photoshopping the aspect ratio (making it fill the screen) only made it worse. Fake lens blur was used to try hide it. :)

It was interesting to see some things which were never Photoshopped torn apart though, such as the disc lettering on Halo 2, although the disc was a copy of Unreal Tournament before the Photoshop.

Anyways, it was all in good fun. ;)

You could have done better. If that were me, I would have just pasted the CD labeling(the picture with the title and logos) instead of putting in the Xbox holograph too.

It was either all of nothing or it would have been a right mess.

I do have a fixed version of the disc without the Xbox and NTSC sections, but it was too late. ;)

It's not easy Photoshopping on the fly. =)

I personally can't believe the number of people that believed this in the first place lol. As soon as I read I didn't believe it, screenshots or not lol. I thought some people took it a little too far, and was kinda upset that I didn't get a chance to comment at the end as you had already owned up.

Simply, if someone did have h2v, they wud of uploaded a fraps showing obvious mouse movement and in game settings and menus.

Btc22, I want to have your children. This thread was the most intertaining 30 minutes of my life. At first, I was like "wow, some people really need to get lives and give this guy a break. Why can't they just accept that he got H2V earlier than they did". Good job for bringing some life bak into this forum, and leet photoshop skills!

You do realize that this was all a set-up, and that Master Kim was in on it, right?
