Look I haven't really gotten into the ilovebees thing that much because its crazy. I think a demo might come out that day since that question in the faq is out. If the game does release on august 24th then we will know before then. There will be tv commercials maybe 2 weeks before its out. Most of the people who know about November 9th know about ilovebees so it wouldn't hurt marketing as much as you think. Really people. I don't know if it is coming out august 24th or november 9th. They did say they were going to launch a massive ad campaign before the release. There is the theater trailer but that says november 9th. So what I'm basically saying is that most people who know about november 9th pay attention to the internet. The other people don't pay attention as much so they will know by tv ads. Got it. It might not hurt as bad as everyone thinks it will.

It wont hurt sales as much. Look maybe I'm wrong ok. But bungie isn't stupid.
THE MAJORITY OF PEOPLE WHO KNOW ABOUT NOVEMBER 9TH PAY ATTENTION TO WHAT GOES ON AT BUNGIE OR THEY ARE ON INTERNET FORUMS, THE PEOPLE WHO KNEW ABOUT NOVEMBER 9TH BUT ARE NOT AS INVOLVED AS WE ARE OR THE PEOPLE WHO JUST DIDN'T KNOW ABOUT THE 9TH WILL FIND OUT BY WATCHING TV
if tv ads don't appear at least 12 days before August 24th then it isn't coming out by then. what better gift can bungie give us than releasing it before its due and suprising the hell out of us

And by the way u said tv commercials should be available two weeks before Halo 2 comes out right? Well for your information ilovebees.com says that in 11 days system will metastasize and that date leads to August 10th which happens to be two weeks before August 24th..

Hey hows this for a tv ad

"We gave you Halo.... dun dun
We gave a release date... *gun cocking*
Remember that release date*gun finished cocking*
Well we -blam!- lied"

I'm sure if they do give out a commercial they will mention something about November 9th lol. But why make the I love bees thing for something small. I expect at least a playable demo.

I stil lremember the first time I saw HALO advertised on TV. I was so impressed with the graphics.... I did not get to heard the advertisement, but I stil lremember it fondly. I later forgot what game it was, and it was not until I was playing the level HALO that I remembered that commercial. Anyone know where I can download that gem of my memories?
