I spoke to EB Regional Manager today about ESRB ratings and he said what lot of people have been saying. Game has to be done. Period. He also speculated on the Ilovebees coutndown. Today it counts 10 days till metastize ---> which could mean game going gold. The usual timelime from game going gold until it ships is about 2 weeks. Look at DOOM 3 for example. So, everything points to HALO being out in August. If not we will be at least getting a demo.

Yup, that's nice. You should have posted it in here. We really don't need a new thread about ilovebees, so go post what you found there.

November Fifteenth Rumor

I find it funny that SO MANY PEOPLE fell for this scam of marketing, I mean bungie is one brilliant sack, First they dont tell us the release date, then they tell u snov 9, ppl cant wait that long, so to get there hopes up they put up some little websight and hack it themselves so it shows that crap, ppl believe it means something, they get excited, more ppl hear of halo 2, tada lots of new money

That rumor is much diffrent than this one. The biggest diffrence is that bungie shot it down. Now, bungie is hush-hush. There was alot less eveidence too.

Iwhich could mean game going gold


IGN has reported that Halo 2 has already reached nearly 1,000,000 copies in preorders; in other words, it has been gold for a while now

And oooooo, an EB Regional Manager

We have to take his word for it

This is totoally lame... how could anyone think its coming in Aug? We are all like the total nerds of Halo, and basically the only people who know about this ilovebee's thing. While our numbers are strong, we still do not even take up 1% of the gaming world that does not know about this.... so saying Nov9th to that other 99% of people, will make people think that its Nov9th.... you can't just randomly change the date.

I never implied we had to take his word for it. I said all these circumstances point to early release. But of course I could be wrong as I'm only human, not MakaVeli4LIfe1.

My hopes are "VERY" up. The game is coming out this year. That's all I really care about. If it comes out in August , it will be only bonus.
