I'm sure Bungie is getting flogged by emails requesting this, but wouldn't it be cool if they could release a playable Halo 2 demo? Upon reading the February 2004 issue of the Official Xbox Magazine, I learned that one of their employees, Frank O'Connor, now works at Bungie Studios. (lucky bastard!) So I was thinking that maybe they could put a playable Halo 2 demo (perhaps of the E3 demo video?) on one of the upcoming disks. I'm sure the people at Bungie read this, so perhaps if there is a huge demand for a playable demo, they might release one. Please share your thoughts on this, and let your voice be heard!

Naaa.
If they came out with a demo for Halo 2, I probably wouldn't play it. A game who's story that has been awaited for this long should be played and finished. Not started and then halted till the rest comes out. Probably die of insanity from waiting for more if I started playing it then had to stop xD.

i agree but disagree
it would be cool if there was a playable demo but i would not get it because it would spoil the fun and exitement of playing the real game for the first time because you already played the demo and it will reduce the fun by a tiny bit and you will get sick of the game quicker.

Make a playable demoo!!!
please make one hopefully for next months issue please!! it would be the best ever!!!
MarineSniper
They wont make one...
In reply to: Make a playable demoo!!!They wont make a Halo 2 playable demo. As said above:
Demos are for games to see if they are popular enough to make the full version (and we already know Halo 2 is gonna be a blast!)
Bungie has never made demos in the past (except after the game's release) so why would they make one now?
It would TOTALLY wreck the game. We all want Halo 2 up and running as the full, or some elements that are suppose to make the game brilliant wont be as great as they are, as on the demo you would play it over and over and over again and you would be too used to it.
And technically there is already demos. The trailers (E3 2003/04) are both showing Halo 2, but I do not, neither I'm sure do Bungie, believe that they would be useful for release to the public.
We've already waited over what...3 years? I only got a Xbox last Chirstmas and the one and only game I have bought with my brother is Halo. I've waited all year for it to come out, and a month wont kill anyone. Besides, theres other games such as Fable that are huge games that we can all play as we wait for the release of Halo 2

i agree
In reply to: They wont make one...i agree that there shouldnt be a demo anymore......maybe a few months ago but not now...its only 28 days away.....and ur right there are other games to be playing....you could even be playing computer games like rome total war.....however i dont think that a demo of part of the first level will ruin the game......it would make people want it even more......because they started the game and now they want tro finish it it is like watching 10 min of a movie, seeing that it is very good and wanting to watch the rest......by the way we have been waiting for halo2 for more then 3 years....i remember wanting it in 7th grade and now im a sophmore and the game is coming out in a month......thats 4 years and they have been working on it a couple of weeks after halo came out so they have been working on it for a really long time
MarineSniper
I have to disagree
In reply to: i agreeI have to disagree. I want NO spoilers. Halo 2 to me is this absolutely huge game that must be savoured until the actual game. Demos would totally ruin the experience. I want to be continually surprised, though I have seen some things eg. dual weilding, damage to vehicles etc. and thats about it. Everything else waits until the full version

Halo 2 Demo
They should do that, i have been sending countless emails to the Official Xbox Magazine Editor and so far he hasnt sent me an email back to tell me whether or not they will have a Halo 2 demo in one of their magazines. If they do then they will probably put it in January's issue because they wont want to so called "spoil the game." Cut the crap bungie and do what the people want.

halo 2 reveiwed
well oxm finally got there clammy hands on halo 2 and spent four days in a bungie office playin halo 2. they finally got a reveiw for it (drum roll) a 9.7 yep highest score ever. so no there will be no halo 2 demo especially when the game is less than a week away. lets see not counting today then there would be 5 more days left so everyone enjoy it it should be the best game ever.

9.7 really isn't all THAT!!!
In reply to: halo 2 reveiwedIf you think about, it's supposed to be the greatest, biggest game on X-box right? Then what's the big difference between that and a game like Prince of Persia that scored 9.6. What is the big difference in 1 point. Now I could see if they scored it a 9.8 or above, that's almost perfect but 9.7. It doesn't convince me that much.

In Australia here, we have our own Xbox mag. I got the latest one from headless and Halo 2 was 10/10. Highest score.
9.7 for Halo 2 in that mag was the highest score right? So that makes Halo 2 better :)

if you think about it anymore and ever even read oxm you would know that they dont go over more than one point on great games. you know why o because prince of persia 2 got a 9.6 and halo 2 got a 9.7. you may not think thats a great score but its unbeleivable for oxm. they would of given it a higher score but they want to make sure that when more games come out that halo 2 wont just blow them out of the water and make them look like bad games. its just a kinda code that use down there sometimes. they dont do it all the time but they wanted to do it for halo 2. so trust me for halo 2 to be amazing it doesnt need to get a 9.8 or higher. if you dont think it will be a good game then dont play it but i'll just be on xbox live having the time of my life while your sitten in a corner worrying about what a bunch of dorks think about a game. your choice
choose wisely.
narcogen
Oh, sure
In reply to: 9.7 really isn't all THAT!!!Yeah, you're right. I'm sure Halo 2 is actually 1% less good than Prince of Persia.

Halo demo
Yeah i think that they should release a demo for Halo 2. Because if there was wouldn't that get them more buyers because once you a demo of the best game then you have to buy the real game.

Rent it
In reply to: NEED the damN DEMO!!I'm sure places that rent Xbox games will have Halo 2, as well. So far no demo has been announced. And given the success of the original game and now the sequel, neither of which have had a demo, I'd bet they probably think it doesn't need one.

Halo 2 demo thingy too
Look!!! if bungie is thinking about the game and making it the best selling game of the year then listen up. Bungie want to sell, why not put5 a demo out to people who think bad of halo 2and when they play the demo thell be provin wrong. Its promoting it and i garrentee it will bring in costemers
narcogen
Maybe because
In reply to: Halo 2 demo thingy tooit isn't necessary?
Promising Bungie more customers for putting out a demo is like asking Bill Gates if he'd like to sell Girl Scout cookies door to door for some extra cash. Sure, he COULD get more money that way, but his current strategy seems to be working OK.
