Do u think Bungie will release a demo over xbox live near release time in the future.

i personally think no. Halo should be kept under wraps and come in a bang with a surprise.



what do u think?

I think they should send beta demos to the people they trust that play the game alot.

Let me guess... would YOU be one of those people?

I think they should put something on the marketplace. Perhaps the tutorial, so we don't have to do it in game.

No, but it would be nice to be. But it should be tested by other people also.

This thread is a perfect example of how every question in history has been asked in this forum.

Why in the hell would the need a tutorial in the first place? They didn't need them for the other two.

No I hate any dumb-ass that wants a god damn demo for the game it would ruin the 2+ years that we have waited to find out how it plays and looks and feels that would completely ruin it and Bungie knows this so all you people that want a demo can go to hell.

I wouldn't mind a little demo that shows us a little taste of the new features that they have introduced.

Wow, is it past some peoples' bedtime, or what?

We've had demos for both other games, and it didn't ruin anything.

This is a little diffrent then before though Conan this is the end of this great Story Arc and it might be the last game to do with Halo so we want to have eveything revealed when you buy the game not spoil how it feels and plays before we get our greddy hands upon it it would kinda ruin the experience like start it up when you get the full version and coast through the place we went through in the demo and we would be acustomed to how it plays from the 200 times we would have played through the demo. And if they do release one anyone that gets it is a pathetic loser that cant wait to get it or is to cheap

P.S. it is always past my bedtime

i don't know, i kind of want the full experience when i play it for the first time, halo shouldn't be treated just like any other 360 games, it should be considered something above all the other games, i don't want there to be an update

How can you consider it to be above other games when it hasn't come out yet....

They have never done Halo demos before, they won't start now.

They know that without Demos people are itching to play it even more, and they don't have anything given away.

Keep up the good work Bungie.

They should give you an enviroment demo where you can test vehicles and spawn Foes like a platoon of gruntes so you can test your Assault Rifle by gunning them down or spawning a couple banshees to shoot down with new gun implacements and such

i seriously doubt this will be the last of Halo. This is bungie's moneymaker and I doubt they will give it up. This may be the last of the storyline but theres so many other things in the halo universe that the master chief can fill full of lead.

The Master Chief emerged from his code. After seeing his dynamically lit realtime shadow, he went back for 9 more months of development.
