Aug 24, 1995 Microsoft inflicts Windows 95 on an unsuspecting world.

we are all expecting Halo2 on Nov 9......but if they let it out on AUG 24 that would be preety unsuspecting.

Or maybe its another Halo novel

A novel would be nice, a demo would kick ass.

I think the anagram makes the most sense. There's probably a single-player demo coming out in the next months OXM.

O.O Hmm..
Well, if that doesn't say enough about the situation, I don't know what will, anyway, actually it would be 11 + 9 + 4 = 24, plus the fact that those two dates have 77 days in between, I'm going for the actual release of the game, since Bungie already said they wouldn't release a demo.

I've said this before but

See on that new page with the threats on it? I think it has something to do with that new AWARE game, where people try and help her.

-----When the game is ready for release to the public, publishers send copies of the final product to the ESRB.------

Hate to burst your bubble, but just because ESRB gave Halo 2 a rating, doesnt mean that its in final form. As was stated prior to this quoted line, ESRB recieves videos depicting parts of the game to go by, and then people play the finished or unfinished version. Finally, [color=red] When the game is ready for release to the public [/color], publishers send copies of the final product to ESRB. It isnt ready for release to the public. Im sticking with Nov. 9th

I know this whole Ilovebees thing has been beaten to death already in its 3 days of existance, but as almost ALL of you should know by now, there is yet another timer on the site that has about 15 minutes left in its countdown.

Good work IVIetalhead on piecing that together. By reading all of that I came to a new conclusion. I have never read the halo novels but have read many things about them on these forums. Since there were other spartans other than the Master Chief, maybe this is a spartan getting repaired. Think about it. on off on off on off.... The spartans are biological/artificial. In one of the books, didnt Dr. (cant remember her name) leave with a spartan/spartans. Were any of the spartans peaceful? This could be one of the spartanI IIs being upgraded to a spartan III which may be a total war machine. Thats why the spartan is getting rebooted, changed around, and is dreaming. That could also be why in halo 2, you have no health bar. Since you could be playing as a spartan III and they are more artificial than biological so their main health is the energy shield.


HALT - MODULE CORE HEMORRHAGE

Control has been yielded to the
SYSTEM PERIL DISTRIBUTED REFLEX.

This medium is classified, and has a
STRONG INTRUSIVE INCLINATION.

PHASE 1 COMPLETE: Network throttling has eroded.

In 12 days this medium will metastasize.

COUNTDOWN TO WIDE AWAKE AND PHYSICAL:

Make your decisions accordingly.

this could be the basic program running in the artificial part of the spartan before the new AI is implimented when the operations are done.

That's siliCONE. Silicon is what computer chips are made of.

Metastasize
intr.v. me·tas·ta·sized, me·tas·ta·siz·ing, me·tas·ta·siz·es
To be transmitted or transferred by metastasis.
To be changed or transformed, especially dangerously: “a need for love that would metastasize into an insatiable craving for attention” (Michiko Kakutani).
To spread, especially destructively: “ [disinformation]... that even now continues to metastasize... to such a degree that myth threatens to overthrow history” (Gore Vidal).

I think this has something to do with the Flood. I don't remember where exactly but I recall Bungie saying something about the Flood coming back . I haven't read the books but I'm assuming the Flood are transmitted virually? They infect you and then you mestastasize? That's why MC never got infected, because he was in his MJOLNR suit doesn't have any holes for them to get through? I admit my amatuerishness, I am new to these forums but not to Halo, wich managed to drop my 3.7 GPA to a 3.1.

I know, I'm brand spanking new to the forums but I found something that I thought was interesting. I saw somewhere on ilovebees.com (can't find it now but read it earlier) that said "Even Arachne hung herself, get a clue". For those who don't know Arachne was a woman, as Ovid explains in his "Metamorphoses" who claimed to be one of the best weavers period. She was arrogant enough to challenge the goddess Athena to a weaving contest. They ended the contest in a tie which pissed Athena off so she turned Arachne into a spider. I don't know if this ties in well with the whole ilovebees.com riddle but I noticed that the site constantly refers to spiders and SPDR's so I thought this might help. Hope it does.

My first post and first forum. You guys sure do make it entertaining, I crack up every time I read a forum. I have no idea what the countdown means but if it is a marketing stunt, kudos to who came up with it because of the amount of attention they are getting. One little tidbit on the ESRB rating, I double checked this, if it has a rating the game is done, there are other games out there that are close to gold and don't show up on the official ESRB list yet. This doesn't mean that Halo 2 will come out early but it is about a 99.9% chance it is completed, unless this was part of MS and Bungies' plan to talk the ESRB into giving Halo 2 a pre-rating (possible, if you consider the power). Here's to hoping it gets more interesting as we go. Keep up the chatter, it is awesome. Glad to be part of it all.

Peace

God, thank you for the silicon= . . . I'm always looking for a smile to be put on my face, =)

Actually sand is a metaphor. To quote myself in a different thread:

. . . .
But now I believe that "sand" means more than its literal sense, even silicon. In the story of the sand castle and the waves she describes her brother (another AI if you want to look further into it) being annilhilated, changed, erased. SAND to an AI means muttability. A sense of no true identity. Being made of something that can be changed at the whim of a programmer, or the "crashing of an oncoming wave against a sand castle." When you play with sand, it becomes what you want. And to Melissa, who fears losing her indentity and being used as an expendable weapon, being taked for granted even, she is afraid. She wants freedom. And I think she wants to be real.



Oh, and the Spider = SPDR is a diagnostic program that is being run on Melissa, The MAYDAY AI. She fears and hates the SPDR because it can change her (that's why the waves of rushing water are filled with spiders rushing worth to destroy her).
