Had a great idea to syphon all the whining from this site. Would open a whiner's thread and entertain everything. Really...I'm the hugest H-2 fan of all times. No kidding. But everyone is obsessed with these ides of what could have been and all of this impropriety from Bungie. Grow up, learn that time moves on, and enjoy your thing. 2 was the best. I see it. Lots of us do. Move on.

Rofl, I wish all the people that feel the need to make topics about H2 ending would go to the MS Xbox forums and do it there. Really, if the Xbox H2 forum was flooded with hundreds of 'Bring H2 Live Back' topics it might do some good. It will do no good here, it's out of Bungie's hands. You know, the Ninja's around here are pretty understanding, in the old days all the repetitive threads would have been deleted. It's as if they're letting people vent, even though it does no good.

Thanks, Grump. I guess the more intelligent approach would be something along the lines of, 'It's over, let's remember the good times well and rejoice.' I would then point to a certain member's (ahem) clip of knocking the Prophet from his chair...which I didn't even realize was possible. Even to this day, after all the Halo 2-ing I've done, I still learn new things. It's that big and great of a game. Let's remember her well. Truly the pinnacle of gaming.

Halo 2 for Life!

? I r Confused.

You're a H2 lover but a Hater of those asking for H2 back?

Speaking as someone with your position, of stopping "whiners" that are missing H2:

Contrary to popular demand for H2, I suggest dashing all threads wanting it back and throwing it down the drain to be delt with by the sewer riff raft. No longer will we listen to those that help build the franchise (helped by supplying money so they could work on other games).

That is me just speaking out but really you think we should just move on. I would say analysis what you want, and come back. You will want H2 back if you truly enjoyed the H2 experience.

I'm not saying it's a perfect experience but it can't be replaced by any other game ever.

Halo 2 for Life!

Bungie can do things to help increase the chances of H2 and H1 HD remakes with online enabled.

It wont happen over night but they could probably help see that it happens or even push the idea forward (as of right now Microsoft isn't even considering doing this anytime soon or somthing...).

Sorry for any cornfusion. As a gamer, I loves my H-2 as much as or more than anyone. I just think it's kind of jerky that people focus on the things that were "left out," or "What could have been." The game was awesome. It didn't quite live up to the demo, but what could have ?

Halo 2 for Life!

O... Well that is good.

I miss understood.

Yeah they left all the bad stuff on the cutting room floor (flame thrower, mongoose,ect) which is a good thing.

You don't need to apologize for causing confusion, I'm always confused and forever getting more confused lol.

I Retired Gears of War 2, Sold it to buy Halo 3. And I have not had this much fun playing Video Games in a long time :)
Now that Halo Reach is out. My life has never been better.
Thanks Bungie.

You must not know how hard it is to move on from something you love.

Kind of think I do. Was there for the burial of my grandmother on my anniversary date a month ago and thought the difficulty would do me in. Can't imagine anything harder. A few weeks ago, I had my cat of ten years put to sleep because of her health problems. My whole world has felt like a nightmare of death and loss for the last month. So, the partial absence of a video game...not such a big deal.

I've already spoken to you about your grandmother but you didn't mention your kitty went down. Sorry to hear about that, I'm partial to cats so yeah you know about loss.

Thanks, man.
Is hard to keep doing your regular thing when these things are on your mind constantly. I guess that's being an adult. Makes you appreciate everything and have compassion for people around you. People struggle. They make mistakes. Remember everything and be cool to everyone. I guess that's the lesson.

Not to sound rude or anything and correct me if I am wrong.

Ins't this halo 2 forum section?
It's not halo 2 pc for vista...

What did you expect people to do down here? Hold hands and talk about bridgers and modders? Let them post as they wish, it doesn't hurt you or anyone.

Not rude, you're just stating your ideas. Maybe I'm just too much of a fanboy, because the "What could have been" stuff feels like slagging on H-2 to me. It tries to diminish how great the (actual, finished) game was. I'd rather remember how great it was/is and share info and ideas. I think the complaining about things that never were is a waste of time. That's my idea, and I don't think it hurts anyone.

  • 11.27.2010 6:11 PM PDT

Yeah, I agree with nestegg. The hell with complaining of what could have been, the game was/is just fine for me.

It's like having someone give you a million dollars and then complain as to why it wasn't 2 million.

Just because the servers were shut down does not diminish the game itself.

  • 11.27.2010 6:40 PM PDT

Halo 2 for Life!

Having the servers down diminishes our ability to share the experience of H2 but H2 is still H2! Awesome and fun to play.
