On the TREE SNIPER topic again, you get discovered anywhere you are with the sniper rifle after shooting because of the vapour trail.

I just though about Vietnam myself and thought about blending into the jungle or a tree in this case and sniping...sorta like Predator...heh

Also, i think considering you can carry the skull into vehicles in Accumalate MP games, you should be able to attach the flag to your vehicle during CTF....

( Imagine in HALO 2, CTF 16 player... 1 man in driver seat of warthog, 1 in passenger, 1 on gun and another member on the front of the hog in the disarm driver position....with the FLAG wavering in the wind on the car...and 8 enemy troops trying to catch up in their hog while you're cruising home at top speed dodging rocks and rockets and machinegun fire....)

Hmmm,i think if u don't have live,or some friends u can connect with..like a lan party,halo will be quite hard to play in split screen mode with only 4 players...those maps are HUGE.but the detail they have are awesome,it seems like the only thing this game knows how to do is get better and better.

Yeah, but Bungie said they understand those that could only have 4 players or even 2 players in MP mode. I guess they are making some levels huge just for LAN play, and some levels like Blood Gulch for 4 players. I am guessing there will be bots for those that have like 2 players since that would make the game more enjoyable.

Anyways, i have all of the new screenshots in my Official Australian xbox magazine, and on the last page where it tells you what is in next months mag , it has in bold letters "HALO 2" and underneath has "and other INTERACTIVE goodies"

No. Its just advertisement with unclear english. It probably means a video and some playable demos of other game I guess.

i don't think they shouldn't make a demo for halo 2...i mean,the whole poitn of HALO 2....is to be amazed and surprised when u have the full game of all the hard work bungie's put into this game..i know it'd be awesome to play it but GAH!!that'd just make u want the game even more,and u'll go nuts sooner or later..

If that happened, I would be in my room with the lights out, scrunched up in a corner studying every microsecond of the supposed "demo" that is displayed on my TV screen searching and searching for more information about the game. And that is before I notice that my drool has flooded the room 2 inches. =P Yes, I would go insane.

And yeah, Opey could probably win that game without using his BR. Best SMG user in Halo.

Yeah, it looks totally awsome. But I already knew about it when I got my GI. Plus I get my GI a few weeks before that month's issue is supposed to come out. For example, I've already gotten my July issue a week ago. With the Metroid Prime 2: Echoes on the cover. I love big maps because I am an excellent sniper. And Burial Mounds looks SWEET! And Waterworks! (drooling) You guys are just making it harder to wait for Halo 2! You monsters!

Anywho, thanks for the info guys, you've satisfied my hunger for a little while longer.

Yeah, but they should still come out with a playable demo, just the weak minded shouldn't play it. =P

And would be playing it everyday till Halo 2 comes out....

From the looks of the maps so far, the MP levels look AMAZING.

Halo 2 will be like playing my first ever game of Halo except 50 times better. Me and my friends have already decided what we are going to do. First when we get our copies we are only going to play campaign and nothing else. Then because it comes out on a thursday we will spend the entire day of Friday at school in shock. Then we wil get home and then everyone is going to come round to mines. We are going to get into our sleeping bags at 7pm and not move the WHOLE night. We did it with Halo we will do it with Halo 2!!

We love those three levels because thats all their leeting our little peepers see,but all you know is "I want burial Grounds!"not to be insulting or anything but come on look into the future there is probally better levels and frankie just wants us to see the worst but look at them and think of them as the best.Plus ask frankie about the downloadable content you'll get some info through that or at least I think.

HOLY S*** GREAT NEWS STORY, CHECK IT OUT!

Posted by: Frankie
Now that the Halo 2 issue of Game Informer has been on shelves for more than two months, we thought it was time to update our gallery with hi-res versions of the assets we gave them, and just to make things more interesting, some minor updates on those levels.


That's awesome.

I would rather wait for the game instead of a small demo. If anything i would like a sweet new video or something of that kind.
