Oh yeah I was reading about that the other day.

But it seems like something for the hardcore gamer, and not the casual fan. Just too geeky compared to going to EB Games and buying a box. :lol:

:lol: Indeed.

In related news...just about every single 7-Eleven in the city has a Halo 2 banner on the storefront, and has special Halo 2 cups (got a couple myself :P).

Talk about powerful marketing...and I'm pretty sure this isn't the only city that is Halo 2 ad infested either. :shock: ;)

If this thing doesn't sell a million the first week, I'll be suprised.

Halo 2 will never dominate the fpsmarket. EVAR .
Don't get me wrong i love Halo, and HALO 2 looks cool, but CS is WIDELY ( i mean WIDELY) more played than halo.

It's has more players than Quake,Unreal,etc (put together).
So I doubt Halo willeven come close to CS.
