remember that November is when most XBOX owners will lose their XBOX Live subscriptions and have to renew to play Halo on XBOX Live
|
I'd tend to disagree with that?
Was live launched at the same time in the Uk as the states?
I do not have to renew my subscription until next March as Microsoft gave use free time from November until this March.
The big question is, how to become one of the beta testers?
Must be a highly sought after position...

I would think that the majority of xbox owners do live in the states and they are due for renewal in November.

Would be great if released early. But I'm willing to wait if need be.
M$ will most likely pulling another subscription fee out of me irrespective next March.
Besides, my bet is on Ninja Gaiden, CS, and Ravenshield (I've probably forgot about some others like the online sports games) being the main draws for ppl in the US renewing in November.

The last thing I'd want to do is play Halo 2 online, I wouldn't last a minute! It took me forever to get to the end of Halo just on the easy setting, same goes for most games, I'm hopeless (& if I find a cheat I can't even get those to work)
However I can see M$ wanting to get a killer game ready for the Xmas market. Ignoring Live, M$ have to have something to hang their hat on if they are going to keep console sales going up against the PS2.

Yeah, I'll bring a sleeping bag and burn the paper in the office recycling bins so I can cook food.

I have a feeling that in order to get the magic 16+ players online you may need a super fast upload speed.
I dare say that on my mere 600 it will only host about 4 as usual.

In addition, a whole new host of controllers will be hitting the market for use with Halo2.
There will be the Warthog controller, a lifelike buggy that jumps up & down in coordination with the game.
A flying controller, where the player is suspended in a chair by several ropes and the framework moves him/her as if in the game.
Also a tank controller, where the player has the ability to blast thier TV to smithereens if the load the wrong ammunition.
