Yes and Yes. I think the April 1 date is a little Iffy though.

Yes.

I don't care for it (I don't play any games), but Dave does. We'll be getting it as soon as it comes out, I'm sure.

Fuckers. What can they be doing? It's been about 2 years since the original release date.

But April 1st is also April Fools Day. Some plot by Bungee perhaps?

halo 2 is going to kick insane amounts of ass, just judging from the movies I've seen of it. I'd rather them take the extra time and make it nearly perfect. April ain't happening.

this is supposedly in game multi player screen. if it looks like this in game and not just cinematic scenes, well, just wow.

I agree. It took me over a couple weeks to beat HALO. Unlike most games where you can beat it in a matter of hours. So, if they do take longer, thats fine by me.

yeah, I'm sure that's an in-game shot, it's gonna be awesome.

they'll probably save it for around christmas shopping time. I don't expect it to come out anytime before then, which means around thanksgiving or so. They've actually said it'll be out when they feel like it's completely the best it can be. These release dates are made by stores, not bungie. They want preorders so they have to throw a date out there.

got the last one on XBOX, but I'm considering getting the next on PC... I just think the game play would be easier that way

I wouldn't hold my breath for the PC version.

the way I understood it, it will be coming out on both platforms... same as Halo 1

yeah, halo 1 for PC took almost 3 years after the xbox version, not to mention you need a pretty good cpu and video card to get a good framerate. If it's worth waiting 3 years, go for it. :D

It can wait till fall - I will have UT 2004 and DOOM FREAKIN THREE to keep me busy till then. Not to mention Half Life 2 this summer. What an awesome year for gaming!
