I don't know if this has been posted yet, sorry if it has, but if you look here, on argn.com, you see that it says the following under the top news post:

It looks like ilovebees.com (aka SPiDeR) ......

SPiDeR = SPDR are caps.

Also, if you look down the left hand side of the page, under "IN PLAY" you see:

SPiDeR (Halo 2)


(S) Single (P) Player (D) Demo (R) Release ??? Maybe.

I found this little theory here, on the Gearbox Forums.

"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."

Strait from ESRB.

A little translation on the myth comatas...
Comatas was an Italian shepherd most dedicated to the Muses. He frequently sacrificed his master's sheep to them in tribute. When the master discovered that Comatas was sacrificing his sheep to the Muses he locked Comatas in a caedar sarcophagus, and off-handedly said that since he was do dedicated to the Muses they would no doubt save him from death. Three months after the sarcophagus was sealed it was re-opened, and, much to the master's surprise, the Muses had indeed saved Comatas. They had been sending bees into the sarcophagus to give him food and water enough to live.


My translation.




The nine muses = halo players..
met on mt olympus surrounded by the bee's = met on a slope surrounded by vehicles...
one day a goat herd glimpesd them dancing..and caught up in a wave of awe = saw them near base and sent out one of his spartan's.
the muses took pity comatas and sent there bee's to carry hunny to them through a crack in the chest..when the chest was fully opened he emerged in perfect health = they sent vehicles toattack the base and broke thru a spot in the defence...they killed every1 and some1 brokle away in a vehicle with the prized flag...ie honey..




Halo 2 was suppposed to come out on the 9th of November (9/11/04)

9 + 11 + 04 = 24

you played Halo's single player?
did you check the email of the person who 'supposedly' runs ilovebees.com?

its ladybud777@hotmail.com

you see how the first news post starts off with
'it looks like ilovebees.com (aka SPiDeR)
and see how the letters SPDR are in caps?
well look to the left underneath 'IN PLAY'

you see...SPiDeR (Halo 2) ?
ie. Single ( S ) Player ( P ) Demo ( D ) Release ( R ) ie (Halo 2)

But halo 2 cant be released as a demo......it has an ESRB rating so its completed....and in the faq they have sworn not to release a demo.....

on the countdown it says in 3 days network throttling will erode.
3 days time there is as ms conference

IMO i think halo 2 will be released early...they have put it back so many times...and they have completed the game...why get it rated and complete and hold it 3 months to release?!?!

Either that or in the microsoft meeting they will be discussing a halo 2 pc version. they can afford it lol..i dont care what happens but post what u think and hints...eetc in this thread and keep it alive.
Hope this has passed those crossroads for y'all.

Here is some more "convincing" evidence...

I think the most evident clue that Halo 2 will come out on the 24th is that Bungie hasn't said anything disregarding it. If this were all a load of crap, I think Bungie would have denied having anything to do with it by now....

That argument doesn't mean anything any way... all it means is that Bungie made the web site.

HALO 2 IS NOT FINISHED i just got this of esrb.com and i quote "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." in short that means that a game does not have to be finished to get a rating CASE CLOSED!!!!!!

Technically Friday is in the work week and we'll just wait till Monday but why put off something that has grown so big in such a short amount of time.

If Bungie did say this was a load of crap... You'd all be like "ooo ooo they denied, it must be true." So, its best they don't denie it and we just go on wondering.

i figured it out people
the count down does relate to the release of Halo 2

Metastasize:
Main Entry: me·tas·ta·size
Pronunciation: m&-'tas-t&-"sIz
Function: intransitive verb
Inflected Form(s): -sized; -siz·ing
: to spread by or as if by metastasis

and network throttling?
what are they doing right now at bungie....?
testing out multiplayer online....throttling the network
to iron out bugs

the metastasis relates to the game going gold, and being pressed
