What I really want to know after watching that incredibly awesome demo is, will the it be released to the public? I know we are all dying to get our hands on the full version of Halo 2, but November 9th is an incredibly long wait. I'm just hoping that the demo we saw being played will be released to us mortals, I know it would get me even more excited.
Oh, and to all the employees of Bungie, keep up the incredibly awesome work.

Ummmm, no offense or anything, but I think you're going to get burned for this topic.

But anyways, I don't think a playable demo is going to be released like for Halo PC. And besides, the demo for Halo PC came out afterwards

since bungie and the halo series in particular has such a following and because all the beta testing is done within the company they dont need to release a demo... we already are want to play it an insane amount so they dont need to demo it for marketing

Yeah, and I bet they wouldn't want you going around becoming super at that 1 map. It would be unfair to the noobs.

Keep an open mind guys. I mean bungie hasn't told us crap until E3, and this may be a rumor and all, but I was talking to a guy who got to go behind the scene at E3 and he said that he heard from the people hosting E3 that there will be, but I guess we will know by the end of this week won't we. :-P


Check the Countdown :-D

well tzeron may have a point. xbox magaznie can cash in a bunch before the actual release date by making a demo for halo 2. everyone wants to play it, and everyone who wants to play it will buy it. but who honestly right now, wouldn't go out and by xbox magazine if they had even the smallest halo2 demo being sold with it? i think it would be a smart move for them to make a demo, just because of my incredible impatience lol.

Umm...I wish that there would be a demo, but Bungie stated that they would not release a demo until a good amount of time AFTER the game was released. I don't see why they couldn't just hook that e3 disc up with some reproducing company. No extra time (not really) on their part. Ah well. Bungie is great anyways.

I understand that bungie does'nt need to make a demo, but would'nt it be nice just to curb our apetite until Halo2, there is only so long I can wait before my excitement runs out as well as my sanity....lol

I would love an XBL Halo 2 Demo of that one map.

Not yet though, we are switching internet providers and it will not be in service for another month.

But the chances of a Demo before the summer or even during the summer are slim. The new Tsunami (XBL 3.0) probably has not yet been implimented, and I bet it will take a while for it to be implemented.

Nov. 9 is nice. My XBL runs out on Nov. 26, I'll have a couple weeks under my belt, if I can get my hande on a copy.

no matter HOW BADLY i wanna play anything that has the word halo 2 on it i don't think a demo would be cool....i'd rather just wait untill the final copy came out becuase when it did come out it would be the best thing ever. so i hope bungie doen't release a demo.

Ok I have already seen the demo but does anyone know where to see the entire demo in one video? And don't send the XboxForum.com one because that has four parts.
