Do you think maybe it's possible that Halo2 will take more than one disc? I mean, if it's going to be this amazing graphically and have all these features yada yada yada, then maybe it's possible that to make the game as long as necessary to provide a long, detailed and involving game experience they needed two discs? Bungie probably decided on a long time ago, just speculation on my part, don't know if anyone else ever brought this up, never bothered to look. Feel free to shoot this down if you think it's bull.

Do you mean like a disc for Campain and a disc for Multiplayer? Because there is already multiple discs in the Limited edition one.

I mean like two parts for the campaign on separate discs, like maybe in the first one you have to save earth and in the second one you go kick some covenant homeworld ass. And I thought that the extra disc in the limited edition was a DVD detailing how the game was made or something like that.

Yes you're right about the multiple discs part, but the discs aren't for the Halo 2 game, it is just a DVD of the making of halo 2 and some other stuff, but not for the game, good question tho

Hey buddy this ain't no PS1.
The almighty xbox has great capacities, I'm sure the game does too and I doubt any games out there have/will need(ed) more than one disc to function the game properly.

I think you missed the point. I was never questioning whether the game was going to function, simply if it was going to be long enough on only one disc. After all, all the suped up graphics and other stuff they put in the game takes up more space on the disc, and there's only so much space on those. Sorry if I was misleading in my original post.

ummm, improved graphics and more features wont take up space on a disc... If Halo 2 is 1000 levels long, with 100 multiplayer maps then yes, it will take up more than one disc.

No game will be long enough to take up more than one DVD disc
