I'm with Maj with this one, no demo, if theres a demo, (which most likely wont, but will have a 0.00001% of happening) theres a demo, we'll all go to our newstands or subscriptions and get our Halo 2 demo unless we odn't want to play with it. Too bad though, your hopes and dreams of a demo are gonna be crushed when you figure out that BUngie hasn't given you crap, and they don't need to, they're not obligated tomake you a free demo disc, hell, they don't even have to give us weekly updates, so appreciate what you have and stop b.tching about how Bungie should give you everything you want.

I think it's just better to expect nothing at all. Look what happened with November 15th. And if anything, this is just some marketing thing. Yea sure it could be a demo release. The evidence is convincing.

Do I care if people get their hopes up for nothing? No, I'm just saying everyone should shut up because no one here wants to read anything that anyone else with a different opinion has to say.

All I've been seeing is bees this and August 24th that. This could very well turn out to be nothing and I actually now hope it does, because so many people are going crazy over something that some marketing guy probably thought up before he went to sleep one night.

It's most likely just another one of those A.I. movie things like an appetizer before a meal. There's only a couple of months before the game is released. and also, not many people who aren't Halo fans know or have any interest in playing Halo 2. Why would they release a demo when they know only the fans of Halo are going to buy and play it. The bees thing was in the trailer which was meant to attract people who don't know Halo 2. If they saw the bess thing, they would be interested and go to the site. After seeing all the crazy stuff going on there they would have a spiked interest in the game. It's not meant for already existing fans.

Come to think of it, August 24th may just be the beggining of an all out advertisement campaign. Considering that there hasn't been much so far. Just go back and look at everything to do with the bees stuff and think of it as them preparing to start their all-out marketing campaign.

One of the Microsoft Advertising Executives is laughing his a$$ of at the stir they caused !!! People arguing about stupid things. The funny thing will be when they announce the cover art of the disc will change.Good one Bungie and Microsoft.

See you have a flaw there..Think of this,two kids are at a house,One kid is like,Im bored what do you want to do,The other one says "hey look at this demo I got for xbox" He puts it in and starts to play with the kid,The other kid almosts pisses his pants...Imediatly he goes home,sells his ps2 and buy xbox with a reservation for halo 2 =)

See a demo WOULD be good for showing what the xbox can dish out =)

but it doesnt make any sense to do that they will probably release a demo after the game is out but not before

*coughs* You release demos before the game comes out, not after, that's what demo means, DEMONSTRATION. Demos always come out before the game, why get a magazine for a demo if the real article is already out?? Think about that.

That's wrong. Some people may buy XBOX months after HALO2 or whatever game comes out and want to try the game before they buy it.

hey u quer loser wat if it does come out on the 24th wat then freak wat ya gonna do then hope ya go shoot yourself go play gamecube you ****


This is proof of what I am saying, people who believe this early release stuff are immensly unintelligent this guy can't even spell! Give up your petty hopes if you EXPECT Halo 2 to be released early then you obviously can't understand how much time and effort is involved in producing and distrubuting a video game. And to believe idle speculation that flies in the face of official announcements then your just plain WRONG. it's one thing to speculate it's another thing to take it overboard as fact.
