I sure as hell wasn't. Sure, it was the same old thing. Sure, it was only in a very unrecognized theatre. Sure, the new cinema was really short and not special. But, at least Bungie took the time off to make it. At least Bungie helped some poor, probably bank rupt theatre. At least Bungie showed us that they're still active. And, you know what? All that stuff with the weekly updates, etc. You guys MAY think you appreciate them enough, but you probably don't. Why? Because most sites and companies just give you the info about the game, MAYBE a forum, maybe the latest news once or twice a month, etc. But not Bungie. Bungie give us a weekly update which shows the game's progress, about 3 updates every week or two, and a lot of contests. The forums are also really active. Let's not forget the screenshots and wallpapers. So, in my opinion, a major part of the reason why Halo 2 will be so succesful, is because of how Bungie keeps its fans active and hooked in.

yeah same here. i thought the cg movie at the end was worth it alone.

  • 07.19.2004 6:39 AM PDT

Point taken. Hell, people just love to complain about everything, don't they? I mean, Halo 2 is just about the only game that even has a movie trailer and they still -blam!- about it not being good enough.

*sigh*

its because halo 1 has spoiled them.

but havent we all been spoiled by it. i mean i cant hardly play another FPS because most of them suck compared to halo.

it seems like im just waiting for halo 2 alone. i mean there are othe great xbox games out there. i cant wait to see if Fable lives up to its claim that game looks awesome as well from what i have seen. Dont forget Mechassault 2. but it justs seems pointless until i get halo 2. i dont think any other game ahs ever had as much hype as halo 2.

Haven't you been reading the updates (here's an underappreciative one, btw)? Bungie has made a new trailer for Halo 2 wihich was released at theaters for the hottest new movies. It was relased at over 1500 theaters, all Lowes theaters. Unfortunately, Lowes is kinda far away from most people (and its only in the USA(), and it's a very unrecognized theatre. If you go to the sticky on this page named Halo 2 Trailer at Cinemas, and you go to page 5, you'll find the link there.

I don't really appreciate the updates because they don't give us much useful information and they're just another way of hyping Halo 2. Seriously, this is the most hype I've ever seen one game get. It better live up to it.

The only new thing in it was the Chief standing on some wreckage in front of an explosion that was for some reason moving extremely slow.

They are for people who want to see what its like in a week of hardcore game development. Its also to tell the fans what Bungie has been up to that week. Its not to give you new info on the game or anything

You people dont appreciate anything

why are you saying that everyone is dissapointed? that Phantom fly by at the end made it all worth it, and the vid was cool amalgum of other old footage.

First off. It was great to see it. HOWEVER. i work in nyc as a graphic designer and have worked on many film trailers and title sequence. I am just saying from that persepective it could have been a bit better on the editing side. the final cg sequence was beautiful. i wish it was 30 sec. of that.
2. LOEWS is a huge theatre. not sure what town you are from but they dont need help with anything. here in NYC they have one of the biggest and nicest theatres. in fact they have 5 seperate theatres here with 25 screens each.

Actually, I meant they don't tell us enough about the development process.

"Oh yea, I animated the -CENSORED- this week!"

Real informative.
