Until Bungie puts an article on their Front Page, I will believe it comes out the 24th. You think bungie wants this huge rumor continuing? DO YOU THINK THEY WOULD THEY HIDE "THE ANSWER" IN PAGE 13 OF A THEAD!??!?!?!? NO. Dont' believe everthing the mods or even Frankie says unless it is in a news story.


he does have a point, how many people would've seen it if you guys dind't post it. Ah, but it wil probably be front pag tommarrow anyway.

Well, in that case, and I mean this with the utmost respect, you're deluded.

You're entire basis for this silly concept that the game's going to be released as a surprise in August is based on nothing more than shaky conspiracy theory and denial. Even after stacking it up against the official press announcement by Bungie from E3 that November 9th was the date, the subsequent entry in the official Halo 2 FAQ that states that November 9th is the date, and a reason quote from Frankie O'Connor, Bungie.net editor and official link between Bungie and the public, stating the 9th is the date, you're still going to argue without justification or reasoning that the game is coming out in roughly 3 weeks, having zero time for any real marketing, and without official notice, so opening sales (the most important time in the selling life of a game) will start out slow.

I'm sorry, but nobody NEEDS to justify this stuff to you. I don't think there's any more way to explain it short of using the lesson bat that you're wrong, and Halo 2 is not going to be released this month, nor next month, nor the month after that. You can wake up early in the morning of the 24th, run to your favorite game retailer, and then come home disappointed for all I care. You're simply too hard headed to actually apply logic to any of this.

I am simply stating that because so many people (including me) belive it comes out on the 24th, and that many people may not see Frankie quote, Bungie (if they are intelligent at all) should post a news story denying the date. My point, plain and simple, is that Frankie made that post on Page 13 of a thread and if that is where all of the official info is, then I better search all of the weekly update threads. Oh, by the way, don't use that FAQ bull on me. Read the top of the page. EVERYTHING IS SUBJECT TO CHANGE.

P.S. I won't run to my Gamestop. 1. They will call the night before a pre-order can be picked up. 2. If they don't, I'll just give them a call.

they are obviously intelligent,or they wouldnt be making a game as godd as Halo 2. i do agree that they should at least make a sticky,if not front page news. but i have to agree with Shishka.a Bungie employee said Halo 2 will be released on Nov. 9. are you going to believe him,or some stupid site about bees?


hahah i see you edited the part that said Shishka was deluded

{ash: also you wrote shishka was deluded. Yet you editted it out...Thats the smartest thing youve done)



Its not hidden. A link to frankie's post is at the top of the forum there in the ilovebees sticky.

Don't say its hidden. Also, you should read all of Shishka's post.

FINALLY! Some proof that is substantial evidence! Thanx Jay for telling us all. Hopefully this will cut down on some of useless threads about the release date.

oh. thats not the point though. the point is that if a Bungie employee says anything about Halo 2,thats its believable.

Even more reason to believe its coming out on 9th/11th November.

Its just an advertisement to sell the OXM mag.

yeah. if anything Bungie related happens on the 24th,it will probably be the new wallpaper that Zoe had us voting on,some new screenshots,or a new 3D screenshot.

Does it seem strange that Frankie posted "7" days before "this medium will metastasize." Bungie seems to like the number 7.

Don't kill me if this was already posted!

*ducks in cover*

  • 08.03.2004 5:26 PM PDT

I'll be on my own side.

yes they do,but have you heard of something called a "coincidence"?? not everything Bungie related with the # 7 was intentional.

back to the bees thing. people lost a lot of respect for Bunige because the bees thing showed to the entire forum to see how stupid they were in believing it

Although I am sad about this news (though deep inside I hope it is trickery, and for the record I thought it would be a demo at most), I will be just as happy with a collection of screenshots, maybe even some small clips or something; I don't know. Something good. Something good will happen.

Oh yeah: if nothing good happens, I will lose a lot of respect. But they will still sell the game to me either way. And they know that.

What does visiting the forums have to do with anything? you said that frankie hid his post when the fact is that there is a link to the post in the sticky at the top of this forum. So its easy to find, not hidden.

By the way the reason I asked if you had read all of Shishka's post because he shot down all your arguments and you just repeated yourself as if you hadn't even listened to him.
