Tuesday is a good marketing fit for the video game industry. November is a good marketing fit for the holiday season. And the 9th is a tuesday in November. Sounds good to me, also having a specific date gives the Bungie employees direction and motivation. :-)

Maybe they just wanted to make it that so we would suffer. Doubt it though, seeing as how god (bungie) is merciful.
