The game isn't "finished"...They are still scanning it for bugs, then it needs to go into production; all the manuals, boxes, controllers and discs need to be made...They also need to be shipped out...They're not delaying :)

They didn't tell us what it was it could have been anything. Frankie gets scared easy incase you didn't know.

You're clearly a -blam!- idiot. The game hasn't even gone gold yet.

Hey guess what!? I play CoD more than Halo, but I'm not an annoying fanboy. I love CoD more, but I like how involved the Halo Community is...

you are so stupid and gullible, that guy was lying and tried to blame it on his roommate, notice how there's no pics or video clips or link to anything.

The game is already finished, but they have to mass produce it which takes ages. They have to make millions, literally, millions of copies for the world.

It's normally done about 3-3.5 weeks before the release date.

True. I remember when Halo 3 went gold a few weeks before release.

Doesnt take long at all actually, a week at the most. Take a look at all the previous games that have gone gold, 2 weeks later you're picking them up the day of launch.

I was looking at it from a certain perspective. Mass producing all those game discs still does take a while to say the machines can get the job done efficiently. But before all that the developers have to polish the game up and make sure that the game is as bug free as possible.
