They shouldn't have a release date at all so that they can work out ALL the bugs in the game before it comes out, not just the ones involving cheaters/modders. The release date is what ruined Halo 2: the programmers and designers had to cut out so much stuff in order to meet the deadline that all that was left was an expansion pack-like continuation with online service meant to keep us entertained until the next game came out. (If you didn't know this, just watch the documentary on your copy of Halo 2)
I say that Bungie should be given as much time as they need in order to completely finish the game and make it the best game in all history. I know I know, I want Halo 3 to come out as soon as possible just like the rest of you, but I don't want it to come out sooner if it forces the programmers to make it less of the masterpiece it deserves to be. Heck, I can even wait until 2008 for it to come out, just so that it will go down as the most amazing video game ever created (and to have something to celebrate when the Democrats retake the Senate and the White House then, heh heh).
