Gryph Posted October 2, 2004 Posted October 2, 2004 Even though I'm not a huge fan of Halo, this is still something significant for those XBOX people. And it may even make for some good conversation. Well anyway, Bungie has updated their website saying that Halo 2 is done is sent to a "nebulous region known as RTC (Release To Certification)." Over there some final things are done and then it will be announced Gold and will be sent for production. They have a month and 9 days till the deadline for its Nov. 9 release date. So are any of you really excited for this game? I think it looks really cool so far but not worth getting an XBOX for.
Wizard Posted October 2, 2004 Posted October 2, 2004 Halo 2 and online SNK/Capcom/Fighters in general going online could be my only reason to get a Billbox.
ken_cinder Posted October 2, 2004 Posted October 2, 2004 I really love how software publishers/developers have started abusing the term "Gold" to mean released. "Gold" has always been a term for a high selling title, usually one that sees a re-release with extras thrown in.
Gryph Posted October 2, 2004 Author Posted October 2, 2004 Well the term "gold" has been around for a long time. The final CD is called the Gold CD hence when it is burned and sent to the publisher for production, the game has Gone Gold.
Aoshi Posted October 2, 2004 Posted October 2, 2004 I always thought gold meant 500 000 copies soldwell guess i learned something new today
AntiWinner22 Posted October 2, 2004 Posted October 2, 2004 I really am diggin' the Halo 2 action. I really also enjoy my XBOX. I have been noticing that I really am the only gamer here who is solely centered on the home consoles. I don't have a job, so the money to get a new vid card, CPU, and RAM for all the new games isn't there, and the XBOX provides equally good games, at a fraction of the price. Doom3, maybe not as beautiful as the PC version, for the XBOX will be good, online, & I won't have to spend $300 just to play it. Half-Life 2 will also be on the BOX, so, I am really diggin' that. For what games have come out and what it is, I dig the XBOX. Anon. NOTE: BillBox? Bill Gates didn't even come up with the idea! Not that I am defending Gates, but it is just wrong to call it that.
Madi Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 hell im gonna be there in line by 8pm november 8 and be having it by 12 , gonna need some redbulls lol , im taking the day off screw school
Shibathedog Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 I work at the EB so i get it like 5 days early, i might get it earlier depending on when they get to the store Im going to be buying HL2, Doom3, and Halo 2 for Xbox AND PC because right now my computer is teh suck for them, supposedly it can run HL2 very well, but thats just magazine articles and stuff (anyone else read that any vid card Direct X 6 gen and above can run it perfectly with the right adsjustments?) Ill upgrade later and really enjoy the PC versions though
Gryph Posted October 5, 2004 Author Posted October 5, 2004 I haven't heard a single thing about HL2 for XBOX yet.
Shibathedog Posted October 5, 2004 Posted October 5, 2004 yeah they arent saying much, it was at one point canceled, then picked up and delayed, then cancelled again, and now their working on it again but it will come out significantly after the PC version or something like that.
