my theory is that it will be released, dont flame me, im just hoping for the best, and i have a feeling this game has been done for months, no i have no proof, im just saying, the way bungie has been on, i am almost positive it wont be a demo because they want to keep everything under wraps, so im am convinced halo 2 will be released before nov 9th.
Dont get your hopes up, bungie would not lie about the release date.

Ok, on the hives page, the bee animation of the left has now been duplicated and enlarged, and it taking up half the screen.

Also, earlier, I got thge background to change to white symbols on purple.

And on the about page, the pictures are all screwed up, they change size and colour. Some toher graphics are messed up too.

yep thats what happens, keep refreshing and eventually you will see everything, and it will repeat, nothing new, all the pages change, except the home page

entirely not true, bungie could be telling the stores and the public two different things, all the numbers arent just coincidence, this was planned out since the begining and im positive it will be released

They honestly could have had the entire transcrips of what they have given us as updates, from a long time ago, stored as developer diaries of some sort.

Even if this was never meant to be important or big, it IS now. That single second of footage created a snowball that has grown to gargantuan proportions. I was over at IGN and they clearly mention the ilovebees craze sweeping the Halo nation. By the way if you are an insider they have THE best looking quality version of the trailer. Like 1900x1200!!! Bungie people WILL have to clear up on this because they have hardcore press on their backs now. And they are as relentless as we are.


Somebody call Guiness! CNN! ABC! Whatever! And why aren't there any mods around here? You'd think they would set up an IRC channel or something after 190 pages in 2 days

Dont get your hopes up, bungie would not lie about the release date or they would get sued from millions of stores who were hopeing to make a prophet from selling Halo 2.


i personally think its alreadty done[halo2] and only the presidents of the companys that will sell halo2 know and 7 days before august 24 they will tell all storres about it

Whoa! Grim16 raises the point that 11+9+04 = 24 i didn't even think of that, now i'm definetly covinced, along with the ESRB, man this is crazy!! F**k, this is gonna be an exciting 29 days!!!!


eh? I think you guys might be looking into this a little too much. The evil people at Bungie probably just wanted to get a lot of people to go insane from one of their little jokes. The text sounds like its from some kind of sci-fi survival story. Or maybe they actually do have something planned , oh well, it might not even have any thing to do with HALO 2... Maybe they have a new game in the works, or at least planned, and with that line of logic, it is possible the text may be part of its dialogue.
Maybe they plan on announcing it on one of those dates.... Ahhh why do i bother, this is going to be covered up so quick no one will ever see it anyways, so many damn people posting here.

thank you ODST, i think this game has been done for months or so, and they wanted all the numbers and everything, to match up, and be a very good suprise

ok... to end (or at least stifle) all confusion, either make a monster post, or an entire new topic, that lists the evidence behind the august 24th release. it will be a pain in the ass but will make questins easier to answer when we can just redirect people to a new topic.

I am very sorry if this has already been posted, but considering that Halo 2 (last I knew anyway) will be playable at Penny Arcade's PAX, which is at the end of August, the fact that they could release it before that is not completely out of the realm of possibility.

There was a mod here. He thinks the 24th is the release of the Grunty Plushy...or something like that.

The changed background then appeared on every page. Thats not the same as refreshing it, becuase the only way it could spread, was if the corrupton of the graphic happened on my own computer. And thats worrying. Because nothing should spread between pages.

Ah! My computer is full of sand! Now the sand has turned to bees!

Yes man. I am so -blam!-uing sure about that.
I remember reading through a weekly up date posted after a couple of weeks E3 that some guy had been watching National Geographic videos for feed back to create this new COVENANT.
They stated in the same update that this new Covenant alien was going to scare the -blam!-tt of the player everytime it'll have to face it in the game.
And we haven't even face this new covenant and its already scared us the -blam!-t out of us!!!!!!!!!!
Man where the hell is MAster -blam!-t to save us!!!?

Yeah but a huge part of this phenomenom is the size of this thread. Most people, me included, want this thing to grow as large as possible and don't want people to stray to another topic when it's just about the same thing thought. Good idea though, it would be a lot easier.

Covenants revover spartan technology and create super soldiers? that would be pretty damn scary to fight your tactical rival, and explains the ability to flip warthogs.
