Is halo 2 out in america?? i mean i expect some shops will have stock seeing as its 4 days away but... Whats with the millions of copies in peoples hands on ebay.... http://image.com.com/gamespot/images//2004/news/11/04/halo2leak_screen001.jpg http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=62053&item=8143942614&rd=1 http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=62053&item=8144349253&rd=1 and lastly this.... http://halo2.ngvg.com/albums/halo2screens/halo2pic1.jpg
Perhaps someone has hi-jacked a lorry as is the latest trend in the UK for lorrys full of games/consoles etc :smt009 But why pay $265 for a game that will be out shortly :smt043
That last pic could easily been taken in an HMV storeroom, they have loads of boxes on display at the mo... but those LE editions on ebay look very tempting! must be only people that work for bungie online at the mo... would be great to get the game before and chat to them! )
All those sellers on ebay are just selling air because nobody has any copies yet , i don't expect real copies to start showing up 2-3 day before the release. Luckily i already have my LE pre-ordered i have the coupon and made a down payment :-D
I read somewhere that the game got released early by some stores in America....not sure though. I wasn't paying too much attention, I hate Halo ^_^
Stores here SHOULDN'T be releasing the game until the 9th, but there have been lots of rumors about people getting theirs early because a store didn't know any better... As far as stores recieving the games yet... I'm not at liberty to disclose that information. ;-)
Most stores get games 3 days in advance, and luckily my gamestore totaly ignores all rules and sells the games the instant they have them so i should be able to get it on the 8 or 9th
yeah, some stores have no rule , wich is pretty cool. i've got my zleda master quest without any reservation, one shop sold them like a normal game for 20.00 bucks. i hope i can count on them for the next special disc nintendo will released too! ( if they release another one...) its not impossible if someone in america already have a copy of the game , but it would certainly emerge in ebay or something.
Apparently some copies are already on eBay and going for a mint: http://cgi.ebay.com/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&category=62053&item=8144498248&rd=1 Scalping bastards... :angry
Jeezus... why not just download the English language rip and play that for a few day's, then pay $40 on release day? Is having the real version a few day's early really worth that extra?
What's so special about having a game 4 days before street date? Nothing at all. It's still the exact same game. If it was 2 or 3 weeks, maybe it'd be kinda cool, but 4 days? Who the hell is going to pay a 200% mark up in retail price to play it 4 days before anyone else can? :smt043
four days of glory with their friends: ''Hey ! look , i have halo 2! and you normally can't!'' but after the four days...... does it really worth the price? pffff, not at all. the strangest thing in this is.... that when you win the auction, you need to wait the delivery wich can take , depending on where you live , up to 6 weeks. so, your friend will be able to play it before you can! :smt043
a few stores by me (chicago) started selling it. i guess they figgure the extra sales will offset the $1000 fine by microsoft.
