"Check back later tonight for the new screens and stick around this week for what's sure to be the most exciting Halo 2 week since the game was announced! =)" found at the end of the article "On the road again..." Posted by SketchFactor!

I have to say when I first read this, I got excited! And when Monday rolled around, with some new screens and a Movie. I was thinking wow, this is only the beginning! But that wasn't the beginning of excitement to come! That was the excitement, that was it! I personally think us fans got robbed, and Bungie completely wasted their times at E3!

And to top it off, Franky with his Weekly update found at HBO, just made me all the more upset! It was like a friend telling you what a awesome party they had the night before and then apologizing because you couldn't be there to enjoy all the fun!

So thanks a lot for all the hype Bungie, thanks for making this one of the biggest let downs in E3 2004, and making it one of the worst weeks since Halo 2 was announced! Don't mean to be hating, but this is was BS!

The multiplayer video!

-S

I'm not sure what you were expecting. Were you hoping Bungie was going to come to your house and just hand you a copy of Halo 2 and say "Here! We want you to have this. Play it to your hearts content. Oh, by the way, we're hiring you, and you can date our mom's?"

A ton of screenshots have been released. A plethora of articles about Halo 2 have popped up all over the internet, and they all say the same thing- Halo 2 is amazing. Those of us that have played it -myself included- have trouble going back to Halo, because the 20 minute experience was that gratifying. We are now very, very aware of how multiplayer will work, as well as the fact that it's gorgeous, the physics are awesome, the destructable environments are both there for fun and function, we'll have the plasma sword, we have a release date, there's video footage all over the net showing people play multiplayer, official footage is certainly on its way.

Personally, I think your issue is that you want one or two things and you didn't get it, so you think the entire week has been bust. In my opinion, and the opinions of those that have given Halo 2 awards such as "best of show," or "best xbox game" or "best fps" just in this week, you're wrong.

All right. Let's analyze this.

What did you pay for? Nothing.
What did you receive? A lot.

I don't know what you're griping about, to be honest. I'm tickled -blam!-less (my first blam, I'll have you all know) that we got what we did. I can't get enough of the multiplayer videos.

Though, I do feel sort of sorry for Mr. Staten, as his voice did crack when he was talking about the boarding in multiplayer. It happens to me constantly, though. *sigh* The perils of life.

Well I know that this has been the best week since the Halo 2 announcement, so I don't know what you're -blam!-ing about. You know more about Halo 2 multiplayer than you ever could have hoped before. Bungie more than lived up to that news post you mentioned. By a LONG shot.

I guess a lot of you MORON's can't read! What I am trying to say is this! They promised a lot of cool stuff throughout the week! And they only gave up updates on monday! Franky's Update was BS. He didn't tell us anything new or cool like he normally does! I would have been fine with the way things went @ E3! But when they made the post about MOST EXCITING and comeback for more updates thought out the week, they didn't come though. I was just upset because they got me and a lot of other fans excited and didn't bring what they promised!

What the hell's the big deal? Rather than spanning the exact same stuff out for four days, they decided to release it on the first day. Even if they had spanned it out, you wouldn't be getting anything different.

I thought that it was awesome but they did say that more was to come ta da it never did. I thought that the pre show was just the beginning and then I would wake up Saturday morning to find a plethora of new info and stuff, because i thought they would save the best for last, because knowing Bungie they want to blow our minds. I woke up to nothing and was dissapointed. Whatever. The PS2 fanboys are all making fun of us.

I hate everything, but it's not my fault.

Lone Ranger, I thought you left. Are you ever actually going to leave, or are you just going to stop spamming now that the mods are back?

I thought the update was relatively bad, but Bungie have been working hard so i don't see why your having a go at them. We got more screens in one night than over a month so i'm not complaining. Plus we also got the E3 vid (maybe not directly from the horse's mouth but we did get it). And anyways Bungie owe you very little yet they gave you enough stuff for a couple of months. The whole reason they don't tell you everything is to keep it a surprise that will blow your mind on Nov 9th

I'll take that as you'll stop spamming.
-EDIT-
Just because you beleive it doesn't make it not spam. If you said it once, then it wouldn't be spam, but you repeated yourself many times in posts, mostly in the form of those weird poem/haiku things

Shiska, you have a very biased opinion, you played it, the majority of us, haven't. Of course you werent let down. geesh man, come on. The guy is right, this week was total bs. The E3 presentation was weak, maybe not for you, because once again, YOU PLAYED IT. The doctor didnt, lone ranger didnt, and i sure as hell didnt. E3 was a major letdown, let me say it again, MAJOR LETDOWN, MAJOR FREAKING LETDOWN......all of you know it too except for some reason you just want to babble about how ungrateful we are?? That's the weakest arguement ever.....whatever.........

Okay fine, whatever, as long as you don't make a habit of it ;)

I still don't know what you were expecting. It sounds to me like you think Bungie should have mailed everyone a copy of Halo 2 this week.

Even if I hadn't had the chance to play Halo 2 this week, I now know WAY more about multiplayer than I did before. I was sitting in the hotel ogling those gorgeous multiplayer shots the same time the rest of you were seeing them in the comfort of your own homes. I've read the articles as they've popped up around the net.

Even had I not played, I'm still way more informed than I was to say.

If you forgot, Bungie doesn't have to, and often won't give any information at all. The fact that so much has been released this week and you're acting like this has been the worst informational week since the announcement of Halo 2 means that, yes, you're being ungrateful.

I'm alone, where is my microphone.

You guys are just beating down a dead horse. Meaning everytime you complain and whine to your mommy. This isn't Ubisoft where you can say the Fifty-cals. to powerful you should make it an option to use. Many of you didn't do that but that is just an example, for god sake I hope none of you get a copy of Halo 2 because then you are going to say they didn't do this right didn't do that blah blah blah. Well you guys are just dumb -blam!-s, just take what you got and wait till November 9th. As Shishka said there have been tons of new info from magizines to the internet you got your 20 second demo which they said they would release and they did. They never specfied how long it would be. They also gave you another 8:00 minute or so demo on how everything would work and they showed you this and that. Just shut your mouths till November 9th and play it then, I will not blame you if you complain then just not now you don't even understand the greatness this game is going to be to you. Just shut your -blam!- mouths.

Sketch and crew were working really hard this week. One of the reasons they didn't get some of the screen shots up is because the hotel we were staying at was -blam!- crap. The internet connection was unreliable. It isn't that easy to upload a screen and post it to the website. Many steps. Everything has to be super secure. Sketch showed me the process and man it took -blam!- forever on that hotels lowly connection. Also the program he uses to keep everything secure crashed and that freaked him out. Never crashed before. So yea don't blame Bungie...blame the Raddisson hotel.

Anyway I saw a few of the screen shots that were scheduled to be released yesterday and they're hot! One looks like a piece of art. You'll see them next week.

If means nothing to you guys that we were promised so much, and in return got so little?? Hey, Shiska, did i say i didn't like those 9 screens?? Well.... I didn't. The E3 demo was a good physics demo, but after last E3's showing, that's nothing. The weekly update didn't give us anything really new...and not even a mister chief when in last weeks update he promised a freaking huge update with all kinds of goodies, and what ever happened to that member only screen shiska?? what happened?? What happened to all the goodies at the end of the week?? What happened Shiska??? I don't give a damn how much info other game companies give out (if you would like to know though, they do give out alot more information, you guys spend all your time here, how would you know anyway, eh??) They certainly dont shoot for the moon and miss either.....plain and simple

:: Also, I don't mean to be picking on Shiska or anything like that, but it seems like hes the only one really replying....sorry shiska ::

Ok, they release 9 screens. 9 -blam!- awesume screens. They did live up to what they said, they released an 8 minute demo and a 20 second little thing. As I said they never did say how long it was going to be. They also had backstage pass for people to play which they said, and people were allowed to post pics. But since you -blam!-s scared them away now we are left with what Sketch got. Some of you people can't even accept stuff that's handed to you, you have to have your ass waxed with baby oil. Just sit the -blam!- down and watch the -blam!- show. You won't get anything you want until November -blam!- 9th.

I have found that nothing can be done on this forum...I think I will be leaving.. I don't want to turn this into another lone ranger thing but you guys have serious psyological problems. Your going to go through life accepting everything and never questioning a damn thing, your going to be spoonfed and accept it, and your entire life will be medicore, maybe worse than that. I really do feel sorry for you guys, you are mindless sheeps. Anyone ever read the book Harrison Bergeron?? or seen the movie version?? that is what this is like folks. They wear these headbands that make them forget everything that is sad, and scatters there [b] intelligent [b] thoughts. Harrison Bergeron tried to show the world what their missing, (harrison bergeron would be me, in case bungie has turned up the intensity on your headbands) and that you just cant accept everything your (bungie) gives you when something was falsely hyped, (really pisses me off) when you were lied to, or when they fail to deliver. Harrison takes over the broadcasting of the TV shows and plays all these wonderful things to people, tells them how wonderful life use to be, tells them to take off their headbands, and after they witness all this great stuff, they put their headbands, RIGHT BACK ON. In the end he shoots himself on TV, and people never remember what happened. YOU GUYS NEED A REALITY CHECK................ :: puts gun into mouth, tells friend to hit submit button after he finishes typing and pulls trigger, farewell all, i doubt you will even understand what is happening here! ::
