All we can do is just speculate right now so...ya the timer is weird buuut at E3 the guy who announced that Halo 2 is coming out in November got a *tattoo* that said November 9 2004

ti think that proves the release date.

ya know it doesn't take very long to make the cases, they could make the cases while they are workin on the game, they could also make all the designs and stuff before the game is done to save time. i remember i heard it was supposed to come out in feb. 04 but it wasn't so august could happen but i doubt it will

Sorry guys, as much as I want Halo2 to come out earlier than originally stated...I just think someone is pulling our leg, or we read all of this into it ourselves. I've been reading and posting in this since about page 13, and I saw how someone would say something, like the ESRB thing, then like 42 other people would latch onto it as stone cold fact. It's just too slapped together (this theory) to be true...unfortunately.

U idiots ESRB have rated it since it is almost done. Now think about this. To make 2 million copies. Ship the worldwide to every game shop in America by August 24th and ship them to the Uk possibly 2 days later when the game is barely even finish is a hard task guys. Definatley since Beta was last month. So u think they tested it for about 3 weeks and said I think this game is perfect lets ship it. Come on guys even the moderators think it is stupid it is not a release and on August 24th I'm making a list of all the idiots who that it was on August 24th. My gosh think about it why would they advertise November 9th. And do u know how bad of marketing it will be to release it on November 9th. And also I want someone to tell me one good reason Bungie will release it on August 24th 2 months before it was to be released. And remember right now this is the most critical for Microsoft since a this is a sequel to a game that sold 4 million copies. I want someone to tell me one good reason why a sane bungie employee will do this.

I heard fall sales were higher because kids go back to school, and summer was lower because people go out and do things.

People do things- your right. But what about us Gaming freaks? We don't do much- and if you write on a forum about a game before it comes out, than you are most definately going to buy that game. By the way, bungie had sumthing like 26 million page views in one day. And most of them are probably halo lovers.

here was my original theory :D


Well apparently this whole I love bees thing is being associated with the halo 2 storyline just because it was shown during the xbox patton at the end of the trailer, I believe this is not the case.

To get a better idea of what I'm talking about go to the legendary site ilovebees.com and click on the link right under the annoying countdown/WE'RE ALL GONNA DIE status box (the link in the answer to the FAQ). w00t, you've just come across xbox propaganda! Now take some time to read the posts and you'll hear of a supposedly erie figure known by the alias xnbomb... hmmmmm XN ---> like in xbox next... I guess the bomb part can either cause for another raise in the national terror alert (headline: Palestinian militants strap prototype explosive xboxs to themselves and take over Jerusalem) or could be a good thing, like maybe some big news about xbox next.

In accordence with the relatively new resonating news from sony and nintendo that they will showcase their next-gen systems at E3 next year, and the own going silence from microsoft about wtf they are up to, it only makes sence to blow the hype from the competition away through some massive countdown to a series of events that will showcase xbox next.

The first event, which will happen 4 days from now also happens to be in sync with another very microsoft/xbox involved event called meltdown (visit site ***https://secure.lenos.com/lenos/microsoft/meltdown2004/*** --brought to my attention by SHERJAN). Now, go to the site and click on registration and look at the bar near the top of the page if you don't belive that this event will happen 4 dayz from now because it clearly states it will happen from the 27th to the 28th of july (today being the 23rd of course). The venue consists of XNA related topics (click "who should attend?" to quickly see this) and deeper into the site there are many xbox-system related topics on the venue as well that will probably showcase another unseen and possibly groundbreaking feature of the new xbox that will blow news about sony's cell chip away.

The truth of the matter is that I don't love bees very much, and that if we were to expect any bungie related news it would probably happen on the event 18 days from now, but the first event is pretty much draw out I believe, but then again I could be wrong...
