I was playing halo today and noticed something. As i was watching the cutscene through the marines eyes i noticed that it said the date was 2552, 5-27. So i started thinking.That would mean that HALO 2 will need to take place many months from than. So i though what if Nov. 9th was when HALO 2 takes place( i know that has been said before). What if the game is called HALO 2 :November 9. It would be kinda like battlefield 1942. Using a famous date as the games name.

Oh btw you can flame all you like won't offend me in the least. I love to hear peoples opinions that is why i read forums. So plz let me know what you think either way.

Sorry if this has been a thread before i know everyone is sick of hearing all this release date stuff time and time agian.

oh and iam not saying when its going to be released i can wait. i just want bugless game.

I would hate that name, I'd like the name to be like Halo 2: Combat Elite
or :Final Hour or something cooler than a date that has something to do with the story

The dates in the books and the dates in Halo 1 have been acknowledged not to match up or make sense, which is why Bungie has said they won't base the game on the books... that and some people haven't read the books.

that's an interesting proposal, perhaps Nov. 9th is the day of infamy, the invasion of the Covenant, I mean First Strike took place through most of September.

ok i just watched the Halo 2 movie trailer agian. At the end It has the 2 with the circle around it and then the word halo comes over it and November 9 is under it.

I just watched about 6 game trailers. Everyone of them has the date different.
They all say "coming Now" or " availible Now". Not saying that it can't be done the way it is in the trailer but its different than any other game out there has it.

Agian iam not saying its going to come out earlier than Nov. 9th. But after playing the first one agian iam hoping it does.

November 9th could be the day the Covenant arrive on Earth. How far away from Earth was the Gettysburg after the Unyeilding Heirophant was destroyed? Depending on how far they were from the Sol system the voyage through slipspace could take over a month, since First Strike ended around the end of September.

Of course, this is all speculation.

Savage that is my point man. I think Nov. 9th 2552 is the day the Cov. attack Earth.

It’d be kinda cool if the game were divided into dates instead of level names. I think it should be called “Halo 2: Bee Yourself.”

Combat Evolved sucked. The need to leave the subtitle names out. I like : Halo 2

aaahh.........thats not true. ever heard of the halo bible??

well it all ties in.

the reason there is an inconsistancy with the dates in the books, is because the crystal that Dr. Halsey and the spartans found actually bends time, and space also.

so that is why the dates aren't set right................dont believe me............read teh books again, particually First Strike.

I think that it is a cool idea if in the coming months bungie creates the feel that halo 2 will actually take place on the 9th of november.

also
