My thumbsticks will be your Doom.... sorry 'bout that.

Does the this year's, and consequently concecutive, E3 "best game" at show title mean that Halo 2 has been the longest wait for the most anticipated game... ever?

Yes it does. And with the gaming industry matching if not surpassing the movie industry then could Halo 2 be the watershed moment of interactivity with entertainment ? I ask you, "What other games are out there on the console horizon?" the answer..."none". Not to discount many PC games that are vastly popular (mostly due to there online playability...MMORPG anyone?). But Xbox Live has reached the 1 million mark faster than any other subscription service and the predictions of new users around our fateful Nov 9th date has got Microsoft execs seeking help for their constant drooling.

Just wanted to remind everyone that we: the fans and the fanboys, the newbs, the flamers and the spammers are all apart of something BIG. That something is Bungie's excellent portrayal of a story and sci-fi universe through -what will be- our civilization's most popular medium.... a game. We all wait together and then we will all play together... and we make it what it is as we go.

Yea it's gonna be great, and MS is gonna make a huge amount of money through it

Best game ever? In my opinion, it will be the best, and only because Bungie knew exactly what they wanted from the beginning, and built it up from there

Calm down, all halo fans know about bungies attempts for world domimation. Once everyone is playing the game, even bush(WHY DID YOU RELECT HIM!), bungie will take over our goverment and lives, while everyone is couped up in thier houses playing halo 2 (destraction), but frank(me)ly I don't care, cuz halo 2 is so awsome I hope Bungie gets to rule the world for thier hard work, You deserve world domination Bungie (thanks for the brain washing, mine was a little cluttered with important stuff anyway.
The Frank, I mean pooperscooper#6and9

Okay, and I'm cracked out? I was just pointing out the obvious -not going borderline paranoid with the whole world domination thing.... sheesh!

I thought they kicked out Bungie employee impersonators? Guess you got lucky.

Me: "OMFG, Dude... wtf!"
AbolitionofMan: "I'm sorry, I didn't mean to betray you."
Me: "That's the 4th time in this game alone!"
Chris: "Third, besides he had the flag I was trying to stop him, how was I supposed to know you were there."
Me: "I said, 'I got the Flag, don't shoot.'"
Chris: "Well those Wraith shots take a while to reach you."
Me: "You were right next to me, I had killed him and a minute passed before you decided to shoot."
Chris: "Hahahahaha, yeah... that was great."

Most anticipated game for us, for many other gamers it could be something different. It's the most anticipated currently... but as soon as H2 comes out, you'll have a huge number of people all of a sudden shift toward the new Zelda, RE4 or Metriod Prime: Echo's. I won't say most anticipated ever because a year or two ago it was different and so on... every major game coming out every year seems to get the "Most Anticipated Game Ever!" mantra... though H2 has seemed to get it more than one year in a row mainly due to the delays thus making us wanting it more and more...

From everyone I've heard, Xbox owner and otherwise, it is the most anticipated game. Ever. If not for playing, but for the vain attempts at mocking it....which will fail miserably.
