I must say, reading thise updates is almost orgasmic. LOL! I almost cry with joy at some of the things said. Bigger maps is great, higher quality...hhhhhhoooooooooooo yeah! I wish I had a time machine so I could go to Nov. 9th at 9:59AM, and be standing outside Best Buy, waiting for it to open so I can pick up the regular version of Halo2. I preordered the Limited Edition; so I will have two copies of Halo2: one for home, one to take with me.

I CAN'T WAIT!!!!!

hey, STG Farva, maybe I'm wrong, but I think I remember reading something a while back about a weather system. I'm sure there will be some. Even some custom maps for Halo PC Custom Edition have rain. So I'm sure Halo2 will have some beautiful weather effects! Actually what I'm really curious about is something that I think I read a while back, and that was about having boats in campagn. I just hope that that is true! That would be so sweet!
Of course I don't know for sure, but we can always hope!

Hmm, each time I think I'm able to subdue my anticipation to the point where it no longer affects my day to day life, you go and make an update that eats the others for lunch.

You can't keep doing this to me Frankie! ^_-

I'm happy to finally get a Halo 2 update that actually gives us an update on the progress of Halo 2. Not that I didn't enjoy the previous updates I'm just glad that the Bugie team is getting back to the basics, which is the game I've been waiting for, for an unhealthy amount of time. Props to the Mega Edition and Evil Mister Cheif and the amazing Bugie team, keep up the great work. I am just praying that I can say only good things after Halo 2 comes out.

By the way what the hell is up with ilovebees.com? I have never been more confused in my life.

by far the best so far, and makes up for the terrible bungie princess one....i actually almost threw up reading that. wow i have been waiting to hear those words for so long now "campaign mode is finished" and that MP is almost there as well. its great to hear that u'll have extra time to fine tune: the better the game, the bigger the pool of piss under my chair when i play the game on nov. 9 :D

P.S. it's really annoying to me how the threads for weekly update discussions have become a race to get the first post in. even more so is the fact that the ppl that do get the first post dont have ne thing to say remotely regarding halo 2 or bungie for that matter. im sick of going to the thread after the update to discuss the improvements on the game, only to see "1st w00t!!" "whoa man u beat me to first, u bastard, i'll get u next week hahaha im a retard" for like a good page and a half. please stop doing this, ur not cool because u get first post, it just means that at around 4:30 PDT, you had nothing better to do than sit at ur computher clicking refresh for the update to come. and when it did, u just skipped the actual writing, and immediately went to the thread to compete in sth with no actual reward. like fart contests

LOL! I like your signature shorty! Monty Python is awesome! If you have Halo PC, look for a game called "BRING OUT YOUR DEAD!!!" Usually will be BG, Slayer.

to note about the boat, it was done in January 2000. Which if memory serves me right, is around the time Halo1 came out. I just hope this was an early thought for Halo2, and since then they just haven't wanted to say anything about it, make it a surprise. And boy, what a surprise it will be! Course the whole game will be a surprise, and very exciting! Can't wait to make my first kill in Halo2!!!

We're reaching all kinds of major milestones on Halo 2 development, and with that in mind, we thought we'd make this week's update kind of a "Where we are right now." So without further ado, here's a bunch of useful, delectable Halo 2 information.

  • 08.28.2004 1:04 AM PDT

I'll be on my own side.

shut the hell up. they work their asses off to bring you this game,and they take time out of their overly large schedules to bring you this info,and you say its crap? why the hell would they show you all the weapons,you dumb -blam!-? why dont you wait until its out,and then see them. and concerning new pics and renders,Lorraine's got enough on her plate,so give her a break,will ya?

  • 08.28.2004 1:39 AM PDT

I'll be on my own side.

and concerning this "coffee table art book". would anyone (mods) mind elaborating on that,if at all possible?
