Subject: To all of you still playing

"Blind eyes could look at me
And see the truth"
-Lil Wayne, Mr. Carter

I disagree. We should keep it going for as long as we can. Much respect to those who are still on.

Exactly. Anyone advising people to quit doesn't sound like a fan to me.. sounds like a quitter!

yeah.

Horse Repairman, how about you shut the hell up. If people still want to play Halo 2, they WILL and they CAN. Even though the servers are offline forever, that doesn't mean they can't play single player.

So, how about YOU JUST let GO of this TOPIC!? Get over it!

All I can hear is, Will can you just go topic, for some reason.

But more seriously, thank you for showing that you are also an idiot who doesn't get the point. I'll be sure to document this information. Anyway, I'm heading out of work, so I'm about through here for now.

Says the guy who won't put all of his points in one post..
What would that do? If you can't find my argument, clearly you wouldn't be able to come with an intelligent reply anyway.

Thing is, there really isn't a definite end, it seems. Your commitment is admirable, of course, but there's just a point...

Staying on after the shutdown, and then one by one signing off before you go to work or sleep or whatever, would've made sense. At this point, it's just a bunch of guys leaving their Xboxes on while they hold an Oddball and head out to school until they can come back and hop back on.

Our old friend died last night. You're just playing weekend at Bernie's at this point.

By no means am I trying to say, "OMG Halo 2 iz ded get over it," because it hurt me pretty bad too. All I'm saying is at some point it has to end, and you can do it with dignity all at once with a bang, or you can keep bleeding it until one by one you all fall and your Xboxes Red Ring from stress.


I strongly disagree. People that are THAT dedicated to a game are incredibly awesome. And, it may be nerdy, but who cares? OH, and BTW, Xbox Connect WON'T WORK ANYMORE. NEITHER WILL VISTA. SO THIS IS THE LAST WE WILL SEE OF HALO 2.

Dear you, are you an idiot?

Posted by: Larry Summer
I truly just believe that you're that big of a killjoy that if you can't have fun, no one else can either. It will end on its own time; and to me, 50 players duking it out 'til the they get kicked off it just plain epic. If you're "over and done with it", why are you griping about Halo 2 in the Halo 2 Forum?
I guess that could be my only motive, right. Everything about this post- no, it's not even worth describing to you. Bnet kids will never get the point, ever.

If you can't state your points, where's your argument? You've ignored several of my posts for whatever reason. If you refuse to point out your argument, then I think the "intelligent" person isn't so "intelligent" after all.

You've practically just admitted that you haven't payed attention to what I've said at all.

I haven't seen you replied to...
- "God forbid I can't play the game after its shutdown.
Why? Why can't I speak for myself? Do I have to do what you say? If you tell me to jump off a bridge I have to listen?"

- "Alright, state your points, I'll try to counter them. We're talking about opinions and you brought backgrounds into play. This debate will never end."

- "8 hours? Try 4. I need to get to sleep too, and when I got back on, I started up again. Because I wanted the option to play the game some more. I wanted to stay up all night playing it, but I had to go to bed.
And where's your points? I'm still waiting."

That is all. Would you care to answer them now?

I've already answered all of those. The first one was answered before you asked it, because it was a misinterpretation by you. The second two, I acknowledged.

However, none of those posts were what I was referring to. Since you missed it the first time, I'll rephrase it here. From now, I'll reply to you just with lolwtfbbq, as you are not worth the time.

Hello! I'm a male!

Yea that's right guys. Treat Halo 2 like a cheap whore on the final days of the games life. It doesn't deserve any dignity when it goes. Yup.

1) You did not answer the 1st one. Nor any of them.
2) You may have acknowledged them, but you sure as hell haven't answered them.
3) And seriously? Now you're simply going to ignore me due to the fact I'm not "worth your time"? You're on the internet, what, you're going to a party on the internet or something? Very childish, if you ask me.
4) And for the last quote, well, I'll be waiting. :P

if knowledge is power and power corrupts, isn't knowledge therefore dangerous?
Black Tower

I'm seeing this as more of a militia.
M$ decided to cut the power on this godsend of a game.
LIVE or not I still played it since december '04.
Think not of them as those who are beating a dead horse, rather as those sending M$ a message that we don't care what they want, we want H2 and god damnit we're going to drag this out.
It's proving a point more than anything - people are willing to leave their 360's on, shun their friends, and continue to play until it just can not happen anymore, just to keep the legend going.
Halo 2 was a raging inferno of BR-4 strafing and MLG quad slashing, now it's no more than a dim candle of flag capturing on Coagulation and assault on Headlong, and BR starts on Lockout, in a cold, dark, airtight room.
That candle's gonna die but I'll be damned if it doesn't keep us warm till the end.

Keep going guys and gals if any, keep going.

Honestly, let it go. I LOVE Halo 2, but even I would not do what you are doing. You are causing Halo 2 to slowly suffer before dying and there are only about 30 people left anyway.

At this point, you'd be better off giving your Xbox a rest, and then playing with these same people over Xbox Connect, and then you no longer have to worry about the last time you turn off Halo 2.

Let it go.


Someone's jealous.

Just to use this as an example- THIS ^^^^ is a respectable rebuttal. Probably the first in this thread. He ACTUALLY has a counterpoint of it being us vs Microsoft rather than us shredding Halo's dignity.

I'd say that you have a point, but it would've been better if it wasn't in the setting it was. It does not read as an F you to Microsoft, rather a glory contest in who will be last online. People have even been saying things like "if they list all of the gamertags of the last players" as if they're looking for recognition.
