Subject: No mention of H2 in BWU?

Vengeance only leads to an ongoing cycle of hatred.

I skimmed through the BWU and it seems as though there was no mention of it being a year since the servers shut down. Did I miss it, or was there really no mention of it?

Nope, but they knew what day it was even if it was not their doing.

Halo 2 for Life!

Did you imagine this lol. I thought they wiped the slate clean. They no longer care about anything Halo but reach. It's sad but Bungie isn't close to the game company it once was. Mostly because it removes it's past and down plays when they should be proud of it's games and stick up for them.

They are big company not looking up for it's halo 2 fans for sure.

halo 2 still the best game in the series. long live halo 2.

Dam, I miss the old days playing halo 2 with my old brothers in arms. Thank you my old friends for giving me this account, I shall continue our legacy.

They kicked us to curb, to cater to the new guys. Might as well join forces with the CE guys since they in the same situation as us.

They do still care about it, but, they're trying to focus on what's going on right now/the future. They do pay homage to the old. That's pretty obvious throughout their games. (Marathon reference here, Myth reference there) There are also tons of references to both the first and second Halo throughout the Campaign of Halo 3/Reach. Could you imagine if during Halo 2 all Bungie would talk about is Halo: Combat Evolved? You'd want it to be more about Halo 2 since it's Halo 2's time. Same with Reach. You might not like it, but, a lot of other people do. Let them have their time like you had with Halo 2.

Even though of all that I just said, I do agree Urk should have probably mentioned it. Nothing too big, just a few words maybe. Also, I think that the story they did about Halo 2 shutting down was supposed to be their symbolic eulogy to the game. I think Bungie is just on the track of "It's time to move on to do new things."

Was this a joke? If so, RIMSHOT.mp3

They will most likely mention it in Halo 2's seven year anniversairy this year. Every original Xbox game was shut down, not just Halo 2. There's no real reason to put it into their BWU.

Hanger one I just shredded with the SMGs until ammo was out and I just threw 'nades like a boss while BRing.

My experience playing Cairo Station on Legendary

No surprise. Bungie is no longer the community driven company it once was. Hell, giving us community maps in Reach is a joke. Where are the actual open ears to what the fans want?

Halo CE and 2 Catered to the fans, and that's how they got as big as they did today, by talking to them. Now they're turning their backs on their long term fans in a sly attempt to trick the fresh into their scandalous claims of community motivation.

Bungie is still looking out for it`s community but not as much as they were before and it would`ve been nice if they had mentioned what their top selling game of all time and made them one of the most successful companies?

50 in H2/H3? Great, but you still fail at this.

Breaking News! Companies are NOT charities. They are for-profit.

Besides, if you want a company that cares about their community, try Valve. They do care and will cater to the fans.

If you havn't played Halo 2 online than you are missing so much. Plus if you have played a good amount of Halo 2 online, I might have a better chance of listening to anything you say.

As much as they do care, they could try to care more about the 360 L4D community than they have. Waiting even a month for a long overdue patch for L4D1 or L4D2 after PC gets it is getting more annoying. However, I still love the L4D games.

Blame MS. MS won't let them update, so Valve is moving to the PS Triple, where they can use steam on the PS3.

Arrogant hyperbolic exclamations of woe? Seems like a normal day for Halo/Bungie.net.

Anyone who says that Bungie don't care needs to get slapped ASAP. Just look at the Playlists, there's more Community content than in any other console FPS.

Sadly the 2% of people who think it's their game are going to moan because Bungie doesn't cater to them. Just look at the reach forum, it's a cryfest.

Steam is on PS3? And I always thought that the head of Valve hated the PS3? Of course I guess it has changed since PS3 is getting Portal 2 but I never cared for Portal.

Valve changes thier mind a lot. Gabe newell was at the Sony E3 talking about Steam on the PS3. And the new Steam PC version has a PS3 login option.

Halo 2 was lame though, so that doesn't count.

From what I heard, it had lots of hackers and quitters. And this was from someone who wasn't wearing a pair of nostalgia goggles.

It had it's dark times, but this is where Halo's success in the multiplayer area started to show.

Halo 2 is a good game.
