Yeah i see it now, but I dont know what to think of it. He's trying to imply that OXM is trying to advertise their magazine, but that doesnt make sense since Ilovebees was in a halo 2 ad.

So do I.

Did the mods delete your other thread because you posted that 'evidence'? If so, it may be credible.

I predict that this thread will be deleted too. And if it is, I'll bet they're stopping people from getting too close to the truth.

gamespot had a different thought about Ilovebees...
They Say-

While the ilovebees.com alternate-reality game probably won't reach its conclusion until August 24, the next update will occur when the "medium will metastasize" on August 10. However, two conclusions about Halo 2's plot can already be drawn. First is the certainty that a UNSC colony called Troy will be attacked by the Covenant before they invade Earth. This is clear from the references to the "millions of lives" in the Lt. Sorenson/Captain Green dialogue.

It is also likely that a new AI will be introduced in Halo 2. Given the parallels between hoax e-mails used to introduce Cortana before Halo and the AI rants on ilovebees.com, it is likely that the "Queen" and the "Widow" will be either two new AIs or an AI with a split personality. Readers of the Halo novel First Strike will also remember how Cortana battled a Covenant AI, which may also be a possibility.

One non-game-related conclusion can also be reached in the wake of the ilovebees.com affair: Viral marketing is effective, especially when applied to an audience starved for information. For the fraction of the cost of a national TV blitz, Bungie and Microsoft have generated a monstrous amount of buzz (no pun intended) among Halo 2 fans. The ilovebees.com site has become a self-perpetuating phenomenon, spawning thousands of discussion threads on hundreds of forums and creating unquantifiable office-cooler banter. For every cynic decrying it as a marketing hoax, there are two Halo 2 and/or ARG fans spending hours trying to uncover the clues hidden inside ilovebees.com. Somewhere, an advertising executive is laughing all the way to the bank.

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.


Sigh.


Now let's take this apart.

Halo 2 comes out on Nov. 9th [color=red][Never says where][/color] or Nov. 11th for the UK. [color=red][UK can mean anything][/color] It does NOT come out on Aug 24th. [color=red][Never says WHAT does not come out Aug. 24th.][/color]

Plus he never even mentions ILB.

First, don't say he's "lying", because he's not. He's wording it very carefully so that it doesn't mean what people think.

No, I'm just saying it doesn't HAVE to mean what it implies.

yea me too. Also, metastasize usually means spreading, well atleast in cancer disease wise. Im betting some type of information will spread through the sites and magazines on August 10th about the 24th. So we just will have to wait till then.

There's one thing that really bothers me about all this.


OXM IS NOT THE ONLY MAGAZINE THAT COMES OUT THE 24th!! EGM, GAMEPRO,
AND OTHERS DO TOO!!!

I don't know what this means, but i'm hoping to see some new flood pics or a video or something.

If after all this hype all we get is some info and a media blitz, people are gonna be pretty disappointed.
