I know that it is coming out on the 9th. BUT... IF... you were Bungie, and you wanted to release Halo 2 as a SURPRISE, so you put out this ILB site with lots of clues, thinking that nobody would solve it. But then people at this forum start solving the site and everyone thinks that it will release on the 24th. Then you have lost the Surprise, people are expecting it... so what would you do? You would tell them that the rumors are BULL and it is coming out on the 9th, so people believe its coming out on the 9th again, so when you release it on the 24th, its a SURPRISE!

I know it is coming out on the 9th though, so don't flame.

Bungie said it a while ago, things change. They have yet to deny August 24th as the release date, and don't give me the "Frankie is the official word of Bungie". Just becuase Frankie said that doesnt mean it's true, now I'm not saying he's a liar. He could have said it to try to get people to stop talking about it which that itself would violate the rules of this forum on the account of misinformation, he could have said it simply becuase he was told to but, if he were told to say it, it would be becuase why would Bungie come out and say, through Frankie or otherwise, that they are releaseing the game on the 24th? That would just ruin it all. My theory is that they are releasing the Limited Edition on the 24th and then the Regular some time after.

I think it will come out November 9th... it can't come out on the 24th because I have not comepleted my secret bunker for Halo 2.... I will be ruined it it comes out early. Actually, who really cares? You know Halo 2 will be the greatest and you will want to marry it. So, why not just wait? I know it is exciting but hopefully they are working hard on making Halo 2 that much better. Do you want it early or better?

  • 08.12.2004 3:54 PM PDT

I'm justified.

better.

It's only like 13 more weeks until it comes out and if you think about it that's not that long.

What clues? I saw no evidence on the actual ILB site other than the timer that could mean early release.

He is.

Just becuase Frankie said that doesnt mean it's true, now I'm not saying he's a liar. He could have said it to try to get people to stop talking about it which that itself would violate the rules of this forum on the account of misinformation, he could have said it simply becuase he was told to but, if he were told to say it, it would be becuase why would Bungie come out and say, through Frankie or otherwise, that they are releaseing the game on the 24th? That would just ruin it all. My theory is that they are releasing the Limited Edition on the 24th and then the Regular some time after.

The rest of this doesn't even make sense. Stream of conciousness writing can be cathartic, but it can work against if you if you're trying to discuss something intelligently.

Frankie's word IS Bungie's word. Frankie is a Bungie employee, hired by Bungie to REPRESENT BUNGIE TO THE PUBLIC. Get it through your skull that if Frankie were to lie, it would be BUNGIE'S LIE. What the hell do you think Frankie does? He's not a fan, like you, or a mod, like me. He's a paid employee OF Bungie. His job essentially matches that of "Bungie informant." The press work with him, the public gets their information through him. Bungie would not hire him to lie, as Bungie themselves do not lie.

In the OFFICIAL BUNGIE UPDATE, there is an official statement that Halo 2 is NOT being released August 24th. Guess what? That means exactly what it says.

The only one around here dishing out misinformation is you. And if I catch you doing it again, you're gone.

Shiska, you're a jackass . Frankie has sent me a private message saying that he has nothing to do with the makeing of the game and that he only knows what the people that do make it tell him, which means I could be right so deal with that.

Frankie is a Bungie employee and has been selected to be the official voice on Halo 2. What he says is Bungie's official stance. If he says Halo 2 does not come out on 8/24, then the official word from Bungie is that Halo 2 does not come out on 8/24.

Bungie doesn't monkey around with release dates. First, there are laws against it. Second, Bungie learned about accurate dates the hard way, with the Marathon delays.

End of discussion.

Have you noticed how many times the Halo 2 release date was changed? They have set at least 5 different release dates, which means November 9th could be wrong too, after all they set it a long time ago. So they could have finished earlier than they intended which would lead on to an early release.

I'll continue the discussion. I was once an Aug 24 believer, and while I can still hope for something like it, I know it's not the game. And to whoever said Bungie made ILB to try and surprise everyone, thinking no one would figure out a release date, you're an idiot.

I dont mean to flame, and I rarely do, but the first thing anyone will think when a damn countdown is shown is NEW RELEASE DATE. They weren't trying to hide anything about a release cause a 5 year old would have come up with that conclusion.

Wrong, Bungie never set a date til they said Nov 9 at E3. All dates you heard before that were rumors or conjectures from mags and outsiders. Nothing was OFFICIAL until Nov 9
