I personally can't wait until 2007 and think that it will come out before then. My reasons for thinking this is that Halo 2 was promised for 9th November 2004, and because of this comittment Halo 2 was rushed- 3 levels were cut. I think 2007 is just wiggle room. Anyone agree with me?

Master chief for life.

rushed or not halo 2 is one of the best games I've played, as long as bungie can have the time they need I see no problem with them relesing it in 2007. but mcrosoft will wantit sonner, I'm sure since Bill gates wants it to fight the PS3.

I never heard of 3 levels being cut...but yes I do believe that this is just to prevent disappointing many people...maybe by 07 they mean January, maybe December, Thats why they said plain old 07...Not too specific, but it still lets you know its enought ime to make you go insane thinking about it...lol.

One shot: one kill, zero seconds to live

maybe, cause H3 was planned also before the release of H2. but it not like the developers spend every singleday working on it. (just 90% of them)

Quick as a razor, sharp as a bullet.

there are three major month/day release date rumours at the moment:
31 march/march
7 july/summer
9 nov/xmas season

I think that Halo 2 was NOT perfect, and really only semi-satisfying. Why? Because it was RUSHED OUT to please the fans. They were happy for a while, but the fans would have been happier if Halo 2 was a better game, even if it was released later. Bungie should and most likely will take all the time they need to make Halo 3 a mind-blowing FPS that will change the gaming world forever.

From what I've heard it will be October 07 because they need the extra time to make the game even better to compete with gear of war and lost planet

They don't really have to compete with Lost Planet since that will be on the Xbox 360 anyway.

Eh, Halo 1 was rushed as well. Don't forget that.

In fact I reckon the launch will be round about this november, think about it. They've already done about half of it (Multiplayer's having tornaments) and they want to combat the PS3's launch.

They have so much work left to do, there's NO WAY they could make a 2006 release.

I actually don't want there to be an '06 release, unless the game is REALLY, 100% ready for us.

  • 06.18.2006 8:28 AM PDT

Damn snipers!!!

The Master of Stealth ......I am the SILENCE

a few points

firstly halo 1 was rushed on a new system that no one knew how to use
halo 2 may of been rushed but its been hinted at and said enough times that the ending was going to be that ending no matter what happened
halo 3 will be good no mater what ppl will complain about parts of it just like they did with halo 2 but its not your game so shut up if u dont like it if u do shut up and play it
halo 2 is was a better experience all round especialy in MP
ppl that complain about halo 2 being unbalanced and think halo was need there heads examining i mean 3 shot kills with a spawn gun come come now

ok so that turned in to a bit of a rant but there all valid points and i doubt u can oppose them very well if at all

basically halo 3 will come out at some point probly mid to late 2007 it will be good it will complete the story and we will all buy it and it will probly out sell halo 2 by miles

also have you not thought they may release it later than they need to to make sure that enough people have a 360 to play it on?

now that my little flameing kids is a thought out post try doing some of that thinking stuff instead of saying ooo i heard this but we all know its BS but it must be true crap

  • 06.18.2006 8:40 AM PDT

Indeed everyone is looking way to far into this coming up with theories so long that they have basically made no sence and connecetions up in there heads. 2nd no matter what bungie do, people will be happy and people wont be happy, take this for an example, a majortiy of people want the combo removed, doing that would also annoy alot of other people.... so let bungie get on with it, they have been working on it since 2004 thats 3 years..... it will be done by then but most likely mid to late summer as silence said, be patient, live a little get an education and it will be here before you know it

Admit it, we all were the ones rushing bungie to make halo 2, this is weired to say but, in a way...

Its our fault that they rushed halo 2 and it wasn't Uber great.

so.. its kinda us, the fans fault.

I think 2007 is a good release date, but that's my opinion.

Halo: Combat Evolved ultra fanboy.

You are all dumb if you believe it will come out 2006. It will NOT come out until AT LEAST SUMMER 07, probably FALL 07. This is for two reasons. First, they said it would come out in 07, so expect it to. Second and more importantly, they just announced H3, so there has been LITTLE TO NO hype for the title. They will slowly leak out info to us in the Weekly What's Updates and eventually it will climax in the release. There also has not been any viral marketing yet, so I would wait to see that before expecting a release.
