- RoadDoggFL, on 10/10/2007, -2/+28So do you have Grunt underwear and a Master Chief lunchbox?
Halo's not really being whored out as much as people think. I don't see anybody complaining about Spider-Man merchandise... at least most non-gaming Halo material doesn't suck. - ahatter, on 10/10/2007, -1/+24i have been waiting awhile to try that halo mountain dew..
- Nobi-Wan, on 10/10/2007, -1/+23Yeah... they're idiots because they're trying to make money from their extremely lucrative product.
/sarcasm - AcFreeze, on 10/10/2007, -0/+20As crazy as half that stuff is. (And it is overboard) We all know we'll get some of it because everyone else will.
- aldenhg, on 10/10/2007, -1/+19It is so fashionable to make fun of Halo 2, but if you take it out of the context of Halo 1 you have a damn impressive game on your hands. Multiplayer kicked ass and continues to if you look at the XBL usage statistics. The campaign (while not as good as Halo 1) was a lot of fun with a decent amount of replay value.
All Halo 2 did was prove that people who are really good at what they do can get a little complacent after a hit. Look at most great band's second albums. They're OK, but not quite as awesome as the first. - strictnein, on 10/10/2007, -0/+13I'll be buying the Halo Mountain Dew, that's for sure. I just wish they'd bring back that grape flavored stuff they intro'd at Halloween a couple years ago.
- MasterThief117, on 10/10/2007, -1/+13So, making money off of a popular idea is now evil?
- BrandonMills, on 10/10/2007, -1/+12Master Chief Condoms?
- Nobi-Wan, on 10/10/2007, -2/+11Dude, please don't be giving Microsoft any ideas.
- navitatl, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9I tried that stuff when I saw it at Safeway. It's called Gamer Fuel, and it's some kind of weird citrus cherry flavor. It's pretty good.
- ygrof, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Actually, one of the side effects of the SPARTAN-II augmentation process is a decreased sex drive.
....son of a bitch, I am a dork. - Nobi-Wan, on 10/10/2007, -1/+7I was an avid player of Halo before Halo 2. In my opinion, after playing the Halo 3 beta I really feel that Halo 3 is the way Halo 2 should have been. The dual wielding and weapon hording really cheapened what made Halo so good in the first place. Halo 3 really has me excited for the franchise again.
- nreynolds, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6I just replayed Halo 2's campaign to get my mind ready for Halo 3 (kinda forgot the plot). The story is practically non-existent, but the gameplay in the campaign is actually amazing. Co-op on heroic is probably the best.
- tehpwnrate, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6I was about to say the same thing. I love the games, but damn... Then I saw RoadDogg's post, and I realized the only reason we think that way is because it's a video game. If it were a movie, or another form of entertainment, we wouldn't say anything.
- mrfreeziexp, on 10/10/2007, -2/+8M$ is so evil, they are constantly trying to make a "profit."
/sarcasm. - DefianceOhioFan, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Hahahaha like those would be put to any use...
- Puppetfunk, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Pitch Black? or Pitch Dark or something? That was good stuff.
- NipGrip, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5This reminds me of that scene is Spaceballs.
- masterskill, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4http://carnage.bungie.org/haloforum/halo.forum.pl?read=820640
=works for Bungie=knows whats coming up=bye bye, internet. - LordSkywalker, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4All this and more "no *****" news when we come back.
- h4mx0r, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4Dude, these things become collector items after five or some years. You remember Surge? That wasn't even a promotional item and it still sells on ebay.
Oh, and I still have all three Halo 2 cups from the last 7-11 promo. The sad thing is that I'm not a big fan of the series. - navitatl, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I had some the other day. It's pretty good, nothing beats Baja Blast when it comes to MD spinoffs, though
- EmperorAwesome, on 10/10/2007, -0/+330% more caffeine? Sign me up for some gay fuel.
- MasterThief117, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3The Halo Burger King meal seems pretty good, but why does it say, "BELIEVE" on it?
- browwiw, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3True gamers have dice, pencils, and Player's Handbooks.
You just play video games. - browwiw, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3I hope they do another audio drama for the promotion. Yes, yes, I know people thought the "I Love Bees" site and viral telephone tag thing was dump (myself included), but I really enjoyed the audio drama you could download from the site. But, then, I am a long time fan of audio dramas and radio plays and the "I Love Bees" downloads were very well done.
- PunkRampant, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Hell yes.
- relaxeder, on 04/17/2009, -1/+3I enjoy playing the Halo games, but *****, do they milk that franchise dry.
- RichG13, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2you should step away from the PC for awhile. It's sounds like it's getting a little unhealthy.
- rdsxminion, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2wait a halo basher whose name is "halosniper7"? lemme guess you must be 7 years old.
- gwolf, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2So don't play it.
Oh I forgot you are the mighty arbiter of what games do or don't suck, pardone moi. Carry on. - inactive, on 10/10/2007, -2/+4For Legendary sex?
- gwolf, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2They don't even know you, of course they don't care about their customers. They want to make as much money as possible as quickly as possible by making the best game they can possibly make. If they pull it off they deserve every penny we are willing to pay. In the end we are individually getting a hell of a lot of entertainment for our $60. How many movies can you go to for $60 dollars; it might pay your cable bill for a month. Many of us have been playing Halo for years and enjoying it quite a lot.
- nreynolds, on 10/10/2007, -3/+5Wait, they actually expect people to BUY the Halo 360??? I thought they'd have to give them away for free, or even pay people to take them, they're ugly as hell.
- UtopiaInTheSky, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Really? I've lived off Mountain Dew for 2 years. I'm addicted. I built a human-sized castle out of Mountain Dew cans. You could actually walk inside and lay down.
- parkermauney, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Please, no more sublyminol websites, we've had enough.
- jeo77, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Master Cheif condoms? For your anti-sunnova-bitch stick?
- gwolf, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Only if Microsoft does it
/sarcasm. - Tenlow, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gay_Fuel
- RoadDoggFL, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3The problem isn't so much that Halo 2 actually sucks, or even really that it's a poor sequel to Halo. The problem (to me) is Bungie's attitude. You have Frankie hyping the hell out of the game prior to its release, "Ninjas on fire" quotes flying all over the place, EGM articles containing promises from Bungie that they won't change the game, and as soon as the game's released and people have criticisms, Bungie turns into one giant twelve year-old and starts flaming them for it. Frankie was particularly abusive to the part of the community that disagreed with the way Bungie went with Halo 2.
You claim that multiplayer kicked ass, but it's the Live features that kick ass. It's finding a game after searching for only 30 seconds (though even Halo 2 seems to have its moments where it's determined to keep you from playing) that's full of players of similar skill, not the ruined physics and illogical weapon respawn system. Anyway, /rant and all that. Thanks for your time. - Sornos, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I know a lot of my fellow Halo fans will Digg down smurf, but he is right. Halo 1 was amazing. Halo 2, multiplayer was amazing, single player, not so much. With the exception of the Arbiter missions (which I quite liked), the single player wasn't that good. Though, from the look of things Halo 3 is going to be great.
- carl25, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1wouldn't mind the cups, or the car. Everything else is trash
- Phyltre, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1No, that's Halo Mounting Dew you're thinking of.
- RichG13, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1/remembers the original star wars hype...
Now that was promotion. - jeo77, on 10/10/2007, -0/+17. Pencils / Pens - could be stabbed with it.
8. Cell phone - could get wet and 'zap' you to death...or brain radiation, either works for me
9. The floor - may slip and die
10. computers - may shock user when cover is off, resulting in death by electrocution
Oh jeeze, now that I think about it, almost ANYTHING could kill me! I've got to find myself a foam room to spend forever in, FAST. - Scheissen, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Halo2 multiplayer amazing? Ask anyone that has played Halo before halo 2 (hard, since halo 2 was over hyped) and they will mostly always prefer Halo.
- RichG13, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1or at least admit to it.
- rowlodge, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1love halo but not a big enough geek to buy a helmet shaped dvd storage container or anything.
- Phyltre, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Guess what? A whore is a whore because it can be "bought" by anyone with the money. Sounds a bit like a product, doesn't it?
- AcFreeze, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Dude, who in their right mind will pay 15 bucks for a can of pop? I'm guessing you know someone at a pepsi bottling company?
