I seem to have the uncanny luck of Posting the last post on a page.

So i will re-post it.

I wish all the Nov. 9thers thought like you Viper. Most of them are stubborn asses and refuse to come to an agreement other than November 9th.

I appreciate your proposal and accept it.

Nice compiling of info Silver. And I noticed a few of your own ideas thrown in as well, good post.

Here's my opinion concerning August 24th. In all honesty, the phrase "anything could happen" really defines this situation well. What could happen on August 24th? New screenshots could come out, a new video could come out, it could be the official start of Microsoft's supposedly massive advertising campaign, it could be a demo of Halo 2 (If you notice the answer to this in the FAQ is no longer there, making its truth value questionable), it could be the whole game, it could be the whole game AND a demo, or (and most unlikely) nothing at all.

I hope the game comes out August 24th, I'd like not having to wait that long; if it does not, that's fine I can wait a few more months. All in all, I'm just going to take the advice at the end of the counter on ilovebees.com and "make my descisions accordingly." Which to me translates to having a spare 50$ lying around on August 24th... just in case.

Even though, I really want Halo 2 to come out the 24th, Halo 2 looks like it is still in [Color=red] BETA [/color]. If you look at the recent webcams of them playing you will notice the text at the bottem of the screen showing the information of the build. The reason I know that it is the beta is because if you have seen the leaked beta screenshots they have the same text at the bottem of the screen.

Look at this shot of the webcams that have the text on them.

If halo 2 was finished wouldnt they be playing the final version?

that is a good point but if it was a secret release then they would probly only let them play the beta at the studios cause of the cams

Halo 2 comes out on Nov. 9th or Nov. 11th for the UK. It does NOT come out on Aug 24th. You know what does come out on Aug. 24th? Some OXM special which does NOT, and I repeat does NOT have a Halo 2 demo on it. No clue how that rumor gained so much momentum. But to reiterate, Halo 2 comes out Nov. 9th or Nov.11th for the UK.


That looks like the end of that rumor then!

i also thought of something new. what if on the 24 they were only releaseing the preordered halo 2's and only preordered ones till the ninth kinda like a massive testing. put it out for the preordered ones to test it and play it to see how it goes and then give updates though xbox live for ne bugs and what nots. i mean that would be kool and it would be the first time someone has every done that. so they keep the preorders open for the LE one and just put all the normal ones on market Nov. 9th

Yes!
You are right silver spartan
Frankie's excuse for the ilovebees.com blip was that there is a special OXM issue coming out
I believe he just used this as a coverup.
WE all know that OXM had NOTHING to do with the making of that video put on by MSN.

Exactly!!
thats why we know that these magazine companies are making up a coverup for bungie
