For Pete's sake - let's just nip this in the bud right now. If you've got a private message, send it yourself instead of dropping "PM"s in here like ravers popping E tabs.

Never mind the whole magazine scan issue...

even though its probably 4 years away its not too early to talk about halo3 is it? :D

i hope they make the covenant more serious. along the lines of the prophet. more serious/mature art direction and the same for their personalities especially the grunts. they should make all the aliens viscious like the brutes.

Can't escape the hype...played Battlefront today and all everybody talked about was how much they were looking forward to playing Halo 2. Same for my trip to Gamestop, preorder madness.

okay how about this one guys? An ebgames employee working at a gamestop (they needed extra people) told me that not only is the next elder scrolls targeted for a xbox2 launch but so is the next Halo.

Complete craziness? or substantiated claims?

Doubtful either will be launch, but they will almost certainly be there.
 
Op, the Covenant are already pretty serious and scary. The grunts are the only ones that aren't, but if you read the books, they're pretty clearly FORCED into the whole mess. They're a lazy species who likes relaxing in their swampy homeworld. The Elites are really a nasty bunch driven by the desire for war-born glory. The Jackals are the same way, but just not with the high rank. Prophets seem pretty serious as well and I'm guessing that from the look of the brutes, they're like hunters: mean. Grunts are really the only funny characters in the Halo universe unless you count the smartass marine comments.
 
The hype in this thread is crazy, me likes. Man, where am I going to find the time to play this GTA:SA and all the other PS2 titles I own. Fuck, its a great time to be a gamer :)

Weird shit.

Apparently Halo 2 may bomb in Spain. Looks like MS fucked up the voice work of the spanish version (PAL) so bad that many people are canceling their orders and trying to get the english game, no kidding. The backslash is being HUGE.

Not only that, but from the story you tell people are still wanting Halo 2, just in another language. If the demand is there, the game will sale.

Looks like some people got it early, there are videos all over the place and MC's voice is terrible, and with terrible I mean so bad it is comical. MS and the two spanish xbox magazines have confirmed the issue BTW.

I just switched my preorder for my regular edition to collector's edition at Gamestop. It seems like they are indeed getting more units in for the first shipment. Can't wait till Tuesday!

Can someone just post up a list of links to all the MP3 snippets? I'm sure I missed some, but don't want to sift through the entire thread..
