read between the lines! MIcrosoft is going to leverage halo 2 to further xbox live. By keeping lan Multiplayer out, if forces people to sign up for xbox live to play multiplayer.
we kept a gametype that allows people to play who have friends but no live. This must be the split screen gametype. "but we had to cut another gametype" This is either COOP or LAN play. My bet is that it is LAN play.
I hope to be wrong. can someone post a link correcting me?
no offense but you are really taking his words out of context.
here is a link proving that you are wrong.
The exact quote is...
"In addition to an epic single-player campaign, Halo 2 again makes use of the multiplayer split-screen System-Link feature and… Xbox™ Live. "
It also says...
""We still have the multiplayer game-types that people loved in Halo, but we're planning something special for Halo 2," hinted Jaime Griesemer, lead designer of Halo 2."
