That's freakin crazy. The Collector's edition looks awesome. The only set back about this news is the launch date is back another two months. I'm going to be on a two month vacation anyways. So it doesn't really matter. Keep up the good work Bungie.

I wonder if I will be able to get the Special Edition one instead of the original one that I have reserved for me at EB games huh? beats me, well I hope I could get that one instead of the other one if I just simply tell them that I want the Special Edition instead. Well anyways I just cant wait until it comes out in November. Ha my birthday is only five days less than than the release date cool. I will own the world with my skills so I hope all you people are all ready to go agaist my clan hehe. Check out my bands web site at www.imparativepeace.cjb.net if you are interested.

I hope that the Special Limited Edition! comes out for Europe (The Netherlands) and is this Special Limited Edition for PC version or also for Xbox?
Because Halo was first out on Xbox and I think many people gonna buy the Special Limited Edition if it's also released for the Xbox console...(I hope so)

Whutup yall, I am an american living in AUSTRALIA now and I am hoping soooo badly that we get the Special metal box edition. There are lots of games that have been released at around the same dates as the states. Pandora Tomorrow came out like March 26th in downunder. I am sure that Bungie CAN accomplish this feat of getting halo 2 at least a week after its released in the states. As for the Limited Edition, EVERY country should get it. There are lots of Australian Halo supporters and they are just as excited as Americans, Europeans or Chinese Halo fans. So I dont think that just because you are based in a different country you should miss out. Conversion to PAL is an effort for the game and for the DVD included, but if work is done, it can be accomplished and there will be very, very satisfied fans, Bungie. Bungie would be pleased to know of how many fans are so loyal here in Australia and somebody said that the Aussies are very big Xbox and Halo supporters and this is true. It's like the second United States here. So please Bungie, take careful consideration of these notes being sent to you from all over the world for that "busty metal box" (it looks so good it kind of reminds me of a gorgeous woman and reminds me of why I am thankful to be a man!) IF A CAR CAN BE SHIPPED TO AUSTRALIA, SO TOO CAN THE HALO 2 LIMITED EDITION METAL BOX!

What about Canada, we love Halo 2 as much as the U.S and scince we are on the saem continent and a neighbors I think Canada should get them aswell because they are so kickass and so many Canadians want them. Send the special editions to Canada Bungie!!!

WHAT HE SAID!! SPECIAL EDITION COPYS OF HALO 2 FOR AUSTRALIA!!

Is there any point in ranting about this? I mean do any official bungie types actually read our posts and suck up conusmer information like the giant sponges they're designed to be? Or at least does Frankie pop in a comment to the guys over a game of H2 Multi "Hey guys... i uh hear that Australians are pretty big fans too...." - "What you talkin' bout Frankie?!"
