i know you guys may think im crazy but i think halo 2 should be delayed till christmas because not all kids have the privilege to get games whenever they want and on the holiday season everyone will be home and will have more time to get halo 2.So launching a game on christmas would highly increase the sales.

But think of it like this the longer they take the better and more polished out it will be the last halo took 8 months and it was still a classic but halo 2 has taken 3 years do the math.

Who cares (other then bungie) if it would boost sales i think we should still get it on nov.9, nov.11 (UK) and aug.24 (for those who follow the ilb)

Actually if they really want to make money, they come out with it earlier than later, they already have a ton (and I do mean a ton) of pre-orders.. you want to get the jump on the Holiday season, so a fall release will mean all of the pre-orders, and it will sell so well, they will have plenty of people purchasing the game during the Holiday season. If they still release Nov 9th, which it appears they will, they could have a backlog.. due to the pre-orders and could miss some opportunity with the Christmas crowd due to the volume commited to these pre-orders. We will have to see how it shakes out though.

Peace!

I do agree with you, I hate that it's coming out Nov 9th, if it were to come at at around Nov 28th, Then i would be happy. But it will come out when it's ready.

OMG God r you retarted. All the good games come out in the fall. Dude its Nov. 9 thats so close to x-mas its not funny. Also those kids that cant afford it. Thats BS kids have plenty of time to mow enough lawns to makes a messily 50 bucks or 55 for tax coverage. Dude also think of all the other games coming out around that time. I know Halo 2 is at the top of my list for must haves. But theres also like 5 other games i just need to have this fall or i'll die. I think.

i actually agree with mortal chief. nov. 9 is also a tuesday and im probably gonna have loads of homework so i wouldnt get to play till the weekend. If it were released on christmas there would be loads of time to play it. and its NOT coming out on august 24th.

well you know what. there is a thing called responsibility and patience. if you fail your classes because you just have to play halo 2 then you deserve to fail. not everybody who plays halo 2 has to do homework. why should everyone wait to play halo 2 just because you dont want to fail your class???

Delay Halo 2 till Christmas??? I have an even better idea.

You should die for such blasphemy.

Right now..... Go find a cliff and jump off.... Make sure your Xbox and Halo are going to a good home before you leap though.

(kiding kidding....or am I?)

do you think halo 2 would have so many features and advances if they didnt take so much time to make the game you think they would have dual wielding or boarding or destructible environments if they launched the game last year you ppl dont know -blam!- and you dont understand why halo 2 is taking sooo long it hasnt sunk in yet you think bungie been sittin on there ass for 3 years no so shut the -blam!- up if your gonna say stupid stuff dont post because i dont wanna hear it. Actually a later release would be better bewcause there would be more time to remove glitches and bugs.

They are already wrapping up on a lot of stuff. There would be no real reason to delay it another freaking month. Not even for extra content that can be downloaded on Xbox Live. Of course someone will ask this question:

" Oh but what about those without XBL? "

My response:

" Piss off and get it. "

No delays. Bungie said November 9th and 11th, it is coming out November 9th and 11th. Simple as that.

Now live with it.
