Now I looked at all the topic names and none appeared to have this information so here goes:

This was posted at the all powerful and wise HBO forums by a man named NuclearWinter:
Well, now we know at least one of the components of the Halo 2 box set. My dad works at Plantronics, the company that makes the Xbox Live headsets for Microsoft (among other headset products). He was talking about work over dinner yesterday and mentioned that his group had been assigned to create a mold for a new style of Xbox headset. They had the prototype for it, but not a mold to mass produce it. Curious, I asked my dad what it was for. He said it was going to come packaged with some game, but had no idea which one. Oye. I showed him the "H2" logo on the internet and he said, yeap, we have to put that on the earpiece of the headset. I asked him more about the headset, and he said it was basically the same as the standard Live headset save that it was made of clearish green plastic and had the "H2" logo on it. He didn't know anything else. I've asked him to find out if it's for the Halo 2 box set when he goes in to work on Monday. Mayhap he'll be able to bring home a prototype... he did it for the original Xbox Communicator. If so, I'll post pics for all of you to see (provided no one tells me that's a no-no ;-))


Finally the theory is done...whew...plus now the more reason to get the LE Halo 2

Thank you and goodnight

oops forgot to post this other thing he said


Sorry for double post, but I just squeezed more information out of my poor father. They have to ship the headsets to Microsoft sometime in October. Plenty of time to have them all packed in with the set by November 9th. NOT August 24th :-P. Another bit of solid evidence that disproves the ridiculous "top secret launch on August 24th" theory.

By Shishka: Nothing personal, but I'm going to lock this since there's a thread with more discussion on it.

Good eye, though. =)


I will take the locking of this thread with pride :(

Uhhhhhhhh, that has been posted twice (at least) today. And, how in the heck does that put to rest a theroy about a release date?!?

Here and here.. .


It's going to take more than 24 days to produce, package, and ship the headsets with the rest of the stuff.

Maybe it won't come with Limited Edition (GASP). Maybe XBL 3.0 Starter Kit comes with H2 and the new head-set. There isn't even proof that the kid was telling the truth anyway.

My point is, unless Bungie denies the August 24th release date (which they haven't, VERY odd) it is a HUGE possibility...
