Just to Clarify…
People asked me if I really hate Halo 2, I hate the story, and how they didn’t release half of the shit they promised. I feel that to get what they really put out shouldn’t have required two years. But the stuff I love about halo 1 is still there so I love that stuff.
I look at it as a mixed bag.
But as soon as I thought I was over it Team Xbox has a funny way to refuel my rage
“Halo 2.5 will be an Xbox 2 launch title and is going to run in HDTV resolution with new, improved textures and graphical effects. All the stuff that people expected from Halo 2 but didn’t make the cut will be there.”Although our source didn’t specify which HDTV resolution the game will run at, HDTV’s lower spec is enough to get excited. Can you imagine Halo 2 running at 1280×720?!!! We also wonder what was meant by “all the stuff people expected from Halo 2 but didn’t make the cut.” With this kind of top-secret info, you don’t ask; you simply listen. We cross our fingers that this will include online co-op, more multiplayer maps, and the final conclusion to the Halo 2 story.
“The technology that powers Halo 2 has been designed from day one to take advantage of the next generation hardware,” the insider added. “In Halo 2, the Xbox was pushed to its limits but now the game will reach new heights with the advanced hardware.”
But that is not the only info our insider had for us as soon after he dropped the bomb: “Now, here is the twist. Halo 2.5 will come preloaded with the optional HDD. It’ll be one of the two reasons to get the Xbox 2 that comes with a hard drive. The other reason… well, you’ll just have to wait”
Go fuck yourself Bungie. So I’m going to need a new system, buy the game, and get a hardware acessory, just to play the version that you promised. There is a special place for you bastards, and your dickwad fanboys are going with you to keep you company.
