Yes it did happen. The first countdown was for the MS conference regarding XNA. The second, more important countdown is not finished yet...I don't see what you are fussing over?

What's XNA? Xbox Next Announcement?

I wasn't making a fuss. I was just disappointed because nothing BIG happened related to Halo 2.

August 24th is the date I'm really looking forward to.

Nothing BIG was supposed to happen so early

Somebody brought this to my attention a few days ago. I've read some pretty interesting things about it now (there's so much out there!!).

Somebody decoded that strange message, with the countdown, to say something about the single player demo being released. However, he also noted that the letters could be decoded to say something along the lines of "Halo 2 has been cancelled, you are all a bunch of suckers."

I don't think Aug 24th will be the day it goes gold. It seems too soon compared to the actual release date.

I really don't know what to think about this, it's pretty crazy. I guess we'll all find out in a month or so.

Yeah, people are making a whole lot of strange sentences. It could be anything really. New videos, screenshots, info, or maybe Halo 2 itself could release on the 24th.

That is not going to happen. The game won't release on August 24.

 

[Hsn]

It could. Never said it would.

I hope it releases on the 24th. The perfect birthday gift.

 

[Electronic Punk]

It is your birthday on the 24th too ?

[edit]no it isn't [/edit]

 

[Hsn]

Nah, 3 days before you
