all i am saying is that they should have shut this rumour down as soon as it started, instead they had thousands of peoples hopes go down the -blam!-ter. if they would have denied it in the first place...

They could have had the game done early ( not aug. early but early) if they didn't spend there -blam!- time on a stupid website that is worthless.


Right, because we all know that all 70 some Bungie employees dropped all the work they were doing (because the updates were lies, right?) and have done nothing but make this website.

You need to get real. If you seriously thought that Bungie would use a SMALL and SIMPLE website laden with riddles that MOST OF THE FANBASE WILL NOT NOTICE OR EVEN KNOW ABOUT to announce that they were wrapping the game up early, something they wouldn't do, then frankly, the only person you should be kicking right now is yourself.

The website may be related to Halo 2, but the overhype was the product of "fanboi group think." Don't get mad at Bungie because YOU misunderstood the intent of ilovebees.

i agree compeltely. bungie just lost a lot of respect from me. pulling this -blam!-, wasting our time. if it isnt gonig to be something big then they should have never started the BS or atleast have denied the rumour much sooner. just wrong what they did


What they did?

Here's a tip for you, and anyone who thinks like this: You put this all on yourself. Bungie didn't say a damn thing about any of this, and it was you guys that speculated and created fantasy stories about super secrets that were in the works from Bungie

You put this all on yourself; so I'd suggest that you quit whining "on behalf of the people who were let down", and return to reality now

Not to mention growing the hell up; Bungie hasn't lost respect from anyone, including you, and you know it - and stop acting like you aren't going to buy the game

Goodness...


I could not have said it better Maka.

Everyone who thought that Halo 2 was going to come out on the 24th is going to complain about how Bungie wasted their time making some stupid site instead of workign on the game. (and I agree, the site is stupid)

Not once have I ever believed that the full game was going to come out on the 24th. A demo, maybe, but even that was a stretch. I think that what happens on the 24th is still going to be huge, and I dont care if anyone agrees with that or not.

But you can't go and blame bungie because YOU got your hopes up about an early release. Yes, they put the site there. Did it have cryptic messages? hell yeah. Did Bungie ever say that they were releasing it early? hell no. when did bungie say they were going to release the game? nov. 9th 2004.

With all of that said, I still can't see how anyone would believe that the game was comming out on aug. 24th.

I was thinking the same thing like i hate Bungie and all that crap but then i thought of something else give some credit toBungie becasue they made some time go a bit faster even though we (not i )looked like idiots.!>!!

  • 08.03.2004 5:26 PM PDT

I'll be on my own side.

i think a lot of people lost respect for Bungie because they realized that ilovebees showed to the public how stupid they were in believing it.

I can se both sides. I was hopeful for something big like a demo and even though I never believed it'd be a release, it does seem like it would have been rather simple for Bungie to at least quell the rumors of an early release that have flooded, and I mean flooded these forums the past few weeks.

I havent lost any respect for Bungie, but no response at all is better than this belayed response that will undoubtebly irritate and anger a lot of the short-attention span fanboys that have become obsessed with Halo.

as of anything, u guys can't say nothing yet becuase we still don't know what is going to happen. Heck, somehow, whatever is coming out, it culd be greater than a demo, so please at least wait to cry and complain after aug.24th. Ur even lucky ur gettin something early so suck it up and don't cry like a wussy

Biting that hand that feeds you huh? Figures you rabid animals. Bungie gave you something to ponder about and something to scrw with your head. How do you know that the udate in that magazine won't be beyond your wildest dreams? Hmm? Ever thought it was a marketing ploy to get people to become excited and to buy whatever comes out on the 24th? Obviously not.

well since the game is nearing completion(if it isnt already done) im sure there are some people sitting around doing nothing, so im sure that bungie didnt waste much of the "important" time on the website. who knows maybe microsoft is actually responsible to the creation of the site itself, and we all know microsoft has a billion employess sitting on the asses all day telling Gates how much money he has.... who knows, just my thoughts
