I found an intervew on gamefaqs, that I would like to post here. Some of you may have seen it, others may have not. It is very informative and contains a link at the bottom that I think you would like to go check out. (I won't post it here because of certain things.[cant explain]). And if someone already did post this, please forgive me, I do not have the time to read through 6000 different posts.

ChR0n03939 [2:09 AM]: well obviously, i mean i did ask it right?
Radical Mel12 [2:09 AM]: She is with us. Thats all you need to know.
ChR0n03939 [2:11 AM]: but what does she have to do with anything? now 1 flood was captured and brought back to earth, the covenant know where earth is? the flood that was brought back was already hosting a living soldier so how it possible that they could spread? it doesnt seem likely.
ChR0n03939 [2:12 AM]: the flood were destroyed on halo, lightyears away. 1 flood remains, it is hosting someone. this fight is between earth and the covenant. How can the flood have anything to do with this?
Radical Mel12 [2:13 AM]: Find the swords.
ChR0n03939 [2:14 AM]: i found you. i need information on the other 2. is dana a sword?

ChR0n03939 [2:23 AM]: so basicaally, what it is saying is that, a war will come the apocalypse will happen, yet it also talks of resurrection. and the integration of 2 races, so could it be that earth will get help to battle a new enemy?
Radical Mel12 [2:24 AM]: Yes.
Radical Mel12 [2:24 AM]: Exactly.
ChR0n03939 [2:25 AM]: so 2 fores are teaming up, to take ou a new one. now if the apocalypse happens and earth is destroyed, it could be resurrected? maybe using some of the forerunners technologies?
Radical Mel12 [2:25 AM]: Or the forerunners themselves are the enemy.
ChR0n03939 [2:27 AM]: the forerunners created halo. A weapon to destroy worlds. it was filled with the flood, parasites who would attack and create a host symbiote of there victims. now halo was destroyed along with the flood, but the forerunners weren't there. the only link left was guilty spark right?

Radical Mel12 [2:31 AM]: Look deeper.
ChR0n03939 [2:36 AM]: okay, the foreruners like the humans, want to destroy the flood, but as long as food exists for them they wont die. forerunners, along with the humans, try to destroy the covenant, which the flood have taken control of. upon completing this the world is destroyed. then resurrected using the forerunners technoligies to ensure the flood wouldn't come back? is this closer?

The only other thing that might say that the game is coming out on the 24th is in the cinematic trailer itself. Where it says "Were not ready", "He is" maybe this is a clue in plain sight to say that the game is ready to go but we wont be expecting it. I can't believe I'm being drawn into this crazyness.

i would rather bungie wait till november than release an unfinised (or partly) game


Halo was also released unfinished... and isn't it why we want Halo 2?

It's true, that is why you play the same stages over again, because Microsoft pushed it out the door for an x-mass release. Bungie does their best to release awesome games, I have confidence if the game was released tomarrow, it would be great.

IF the game happens to come out on the 24th (im not saying it will or wont, I would love it if it did but I am not getting my hopes up) It would not be unfinished...why would Bungie intentionally release a game ahead of schdule unfinished? They wouldnt, they have until Nov 9th to get it on the shelves so if they release it early it is because they are done with it completley, not because they want to surprise us

this is just for those ppl who dont know how they rate games
]
To get a game certified with an ESRB rating, publishers fill out a detailed questionnaire explaining exactly what's in the game, and submit it to ESRB along with actual videotaped footage of the game, showing the most extreme content and an accurate representation of the context and product as a whole. Working independently, three trained raters then view the game footage and recommend the rating and content descriptors they believe are most appropriate. ESRB then compares the raters' recommendations to make sure that there's consensus. Usually, the raters agree and their recommendation becomes final. However, when the raters recommend different ratings, additional raters may be requested to review the game in order to reach broader consensus. Once consensus on a rating and content descriptors is reached, ESRB issues an official rating certificate to the game's publisher.

When the game is ready for release to the public, publishers send copies of the final product to the ESRB. The game packaging is reviewed to make sure the ratings are displayed in accordance with ESRB standards. Additionally, ESRB's in-house game experts randomly play the final games to verify that all the information provided during the rating process was accurate and complete.



so u can see the game dont have to be finished for them to rate it.

http://esrb.com/search_results.asp?key=halo+2&type=game there is the official esrb rating from the official esrb rating website. anyone wanna argue that one?


thats freaky, look at the release date


ACK


That doesn't matter, check out Fables release date there: http://esrb.com/search_results.asp?key=Fable&type=game. The game hasn't come out yet and is due to come out the Sep 13th, yet they say it was released about 5 months before it will be.

I dont know if it has been posted yet because there are so many pages i cant go through all of them but if it has dont flame me or any one who talks about what i qoute
Be ready on August 24th, 2004.

On the ninth of November, the most anticipated game in video game history will be released... or so they say. With the recent internet release of the Halo 2 Cinematic trailer, Bungie and Microsoft are trying to tell us something... http://www.ilovebees.com. Nobody knows for sure what this website means, but it obviously has to do with Halo 2. All that I can say is that Bungie is genius for doing this.

This is what comes to mind when I think about this website:(Theory info)

In 3 days, network throttling will erode. Halo 2 is currently beta testing. In 3 days they will stop.

In 17 days this medium will metastasize. Halo 2 goes gold and is mass produced.

COUNTDOWN TO WIDE AWAKE AND PHYSICAL:
30:09:23:47:042 Halo 2 is released.

Read below to find out why.
Aug 24, 1995 Microsoft inflicts Windows 95 on an unsuspecting world.
Aug 24, 1456 Printing completed on the Gutenberg Bible.
Aug 24, 79 AD Mt. Vesuvius erupts for the first time, destroying Pompei.
Aug 24, 2004 Halo 2 is released

Nobody expected any of those events. All of which took place on August 24th of some year.


The game already has an ESRB rating. The ESRB only grades final copies. That means that the game is finished. Now to be completely honest, I did not buy into any of this stuff until I realized that Halo 2 already had an ESRB rating.

Take all of this info how you like, but in 3 days, 17 days, and 30 days something big is going to happen.. and it has to do with Halo 2.

LiveUnloaded




I do not believe that halo 2 will be released early but i do think that this topic brings some life into a usualy quiet forum.


I Agree!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'm not saying that the game won't come out on the 24th, but if that were true, wouldn't they have had to make up all of the weekly updates?


yes thats true and i dont know about u but ill be pist that i spened all friday waitin for the weeklyupdate just to know it was a load of crap.


I wouldn't be pissed.... Isn't the whole point of reading the Weekly Updates so that we can get more info on Halo 2? Wouldn't it then be a great thing if we got this god of a game 3 months earlier?!

Straight from the ESRB website. Just because a game has a rating DOES NOT MEAN that is finished.

You answered your own question. Why would they release a game a head of scheduel maybe cause its done or very close. Just cause some one says something doesn't mean they will or won't do it.
