  2. Ballmer's Halo 3 Gaffe Debunked

Tue, 04/13/2004 - 02:01 by narcogen

As part of the all-new, uncut, extended and extruded History of Bungie on the new Bungie.net, the page on Halo 2 has this to say on Steve Ballmer's mention of Halo 3 last fall:

Mr. Ballmer's statement to the press (on a completely unrelated matter) contained the following shocker, " we're working on the next version of Xbox right now and we're working on Halo 2 and Halo 3, the two newest versions of the game." Halo 3? What the...! Anyway, turns out it was a mistake, nobody had to go quickly program anything, and work continued on Halo 2.

Of course, if one wished to split hairs, one could say that this simply means nothing has been said about Halo 3-- not that Halo 3 doesn't or won't exist.

And for the numerologists-- this reference occurs on page seven of the History.

I think there will be a halo 3 considering the ending of halo 2. plus I talked to this guy who said that halo 2 had such a crapy ending because they relized the game was 2 long so they had 2 make 2 different games out of it. this meens halo 3 might allready be finished and will come very soon. and I talked from bungie that said the game halo 3 will be called final death he got banned from bungie for a little while. And I talked 2 guy who has a brother who works for bungie and he said the ending of halo 3 is absolutley amazing. As for cortana at the end of halo 2 with the flood leader..I think shes donna give away were earth/(the ark) is to the flood and then there gonna come 2 earth.And I talked 2 this guy who said that he saw a trailer of halo 3 when the master cheif lands on earth in the convenant/forrunner ship. And halo 3 might come out febuary 9th 2005 because if u beat halo 2 in legedary it says coming febuary 9th..it cant be 2006 cause that a wednsday and all games come out on tuesday.. 2005 on the other hand IS! tuesday this meens maybe halo 3 will come out febuary 9th 2005 but most likely not...somthing is gonna hapen on febuary 9th tho no doubt about that. plus there are trailers on halo 2 that isnt even in the game..they deleted these trailers after halo 2 came out so they could cover up that they cut the game in have and that halo 3 is coming out really soon!!!!!
