j/k! Now that I got your attention, my friend is soooooooooo stupid! He says he has played the H2 demo @ Best Buy. WTFIHS (what the F#@$ is he smoking)? Bungie already said that there won't be any playable demos before the game is released. So how can you play it, when it's not even going to be out until 2005? (I'm guessing 2005, because Fall starts Sept. and ends Dec, so the demo won't be out until 2005). Anyone else have friends say that they have H2 or played the demo? I have plenty. Some losers, eh?

Fastmatt, that was mean... very mean!

As to respond to your post, I think he was just yanking your chain to be stupid... People do that sometimes.

I read somewhere a long time ago that only 2 people outside of Bungie got to play the demo, and that Frankie was one of them (back when he was with OXM).... Is that true, or did I dream that (I remember reading it about a year ago)?

Well, yeah, but he had evidence that he played it. And he's not a loser. My friend is My friend said he played it at best buy. Actually doing it and having someone else know you did it is WAY different than claiming that you did it. I can easily say that I have H2, and tell everybody I have it. I did that for April Fool's Day. I printed off Cover Art for H2, and placed it in a Xbox Game Case. I made up an instruction manual, using data from the internet and pictures. I showed the game case to everybody. One of my friends bought it, and he got so pissed, he hit me 20 times! But he's not a loser, he is good at Halo. (hope this makes sense!)

Yeah same old story in the south here. My friends said "OH, man we have played it and we are so hooked you can't believe it." Point is there is no demo. Dang it though.

Hey Stosh, am I cool enough to play the Halo 2 demo?

Sorry, couldn't resist to ask.

Anyway, what was even worse than the "I already played it" yelling from people I know was when they said "its gonna come out in September 2003" (it was a year ago that I heard this). "At EB it says September 2003, and EB is right, Bungie is not... why would a store lie?" I didn't even know what to say to that at that point...

This dude at EB, whose awesome, printed out the "release dates for Xbox" sheet and Halo 2 was 04/02/2004. Think of it now, everyone.. we'd all be playing it. *dreams & drools* Sorry... I dunno.. I just thought it was kind of.. odd.. that the release date was 04 02 (The # of the Halo installment/game #2) Then you can literally say it out loud Halo 2 (lol.. do you see what I mean? Sorry if it sounds weird). But my point is, finally, how do these stores get these dates!? And then lie to us when there's been no official release date!? Why!?

I work in a store, and Halo 2 has appeared on our release date schedules a number of times. That and talking with the Microsoft rep, we get a bit of an idea, but it's not perfect, and we always have to keep in mind that those sheets are a guide only and cannot be taken as holy gospel.

I think its the Littlewoods catalogue over here in the UK that has been advertising Halo 2 for £50, not preorders, actually available to buy, but when you ring up to order it they allways say they are out of stock, arseholes. any other brits hear about this?

If that was done over here in Australia we'd have the ACCC so far up our bums we'd have bureaucrats playing Halo 2 out of our noses.

Maybe his friend played the Halo 1 demo, but was so dumb, he thought it was Halo 2?
