Please... I have heard that the game is coming out as soon as August and no later than Thanksgiving. When is it really coming out? Are they on schedule and if not are they going to push the date back again? Also, I have heard that there are a lot of glitches when they tested it fully online. Is this true? If so what is being done to correct this?

When ever it is it's still too far away. Though all time that is needed to make it a great game is enough for me.

The game is still in development, code is still being written, and yes there are bugs. There are probobly a crap load of bugs. There always is. Bungie has offically said Fall 2004. They would not have said this if they were not 100% sure it would be done some time between the first and last day of fall. Which day that will be I dare say not even Bungie knows. Why? BECAUSE ITS NOT DONE YET!!

A week ago, we had this incredibly good post, which hinted at 13th of September. The guy who said it, was looking at hints from one weekly update with a red cross on Monday, 13th, and he also depicted some coincident in one of the Halo books, which is also saying about a 13th. It might be just coincidence, but maybe this is the release date:

09-13-04

So I don't know. It should be around september when they release it.

I noticed that clue but didn't make the connection with the books till now....damn! GameFAQS also has a release date of 11-15-04. Which would coincide with the third anniversary of xbox. Only Bungie knows for sure. And they ain't telling yet.

Ok, Don't kill me if Im wrong. But I went to the Best Buy web site, and they have the release date for Halo 2 as 09/01/2004. I have no clue if this is right, but still, I hope to god it is.. Also we need a search function. I just spent ten minutes looking for a thread like this...

O K guys here’s something to speculate on as a release date for Halo 2 (Fall 2004 I know). (Remember bungie is a business also that has to make money to survive) Since I’m a business major with a minor in marketing. I speculate that Halo 2 will release to far better sales if released between Sept and Oct. Why halo 1 has a fan base that continues to grow, this game is still the top selling game on xbox but has no online features that can help extend the gameplay life of the 1st title. Also with the release of the following games: Metroid 2, Doom 3, Far Cry, Killzone Half Life 2 all highly anticipated FPS or FP Perspective games with a built in fan base which could possibly cause consumers to have to make a choice of which game to buy or even which future system to buy(2005 and beyond). Also with the release of games like Metal Gear 3, Zelda 2, Pikmin 2, Need for Speed 2, GranT4, DBall GT, Def Jam V2, Grand Theft SA (and many more Million copy selling games) all being released in fall 04 can cause consumer to have what I have termed as an “holiday-load”, top titles being release within a 3 month quarter can cause some titles to be left out. Which brings me back to halo, it halo 2 is release before many of these games maybe around mid September or early October it could take advantage of a not so crowded market and would still sell copies during the holiday rush month of November if this game was released in August it would take advantage of a totally free market when very few top selling titles have posted a release date. I know that the game will be released when its I hope that this game is close to being completed. One thing for sure is that this games is going to sell close to 9 million copies within 6 months if its as a good as we all hope it is. Just a speculation but I think mid September

Quite well described. I think you are partially right, though. Bungie will survive no matter if they release Halo 2 in August or November because they got over 4 Million people who worship Halo. So they'll get the money. But in all other ways I agree. It's all about marketing ;-)

Wow, since Im only a highschool student, about all I can say is your well read. But still, here in Kansas Ive found three different place with a release date of 1 Sept. 04... so I don't know.. These are all major companies here, so thats all I can go by.

People getting their hopes up...hate to let you down.

NO THEORIES, NO COINCIDENCES....FALL OF 2004!!!!!

When Bungie is ready to give an EXACT date, trust me they will. Just wait and be patient for Bungie to finish the (soon to be) greatest game of all time.
