I know Halo 4’s releasing on November 6 but how cool would it have been if the game released on the five year anniversary of Halo 3!!
After checking my calendar it appears that September 25 2012 would be a tuesday and exactly 5 years since the release (its been so long!!) of Halo 3. This would seem like the perfect day since it would release exactly a half a decade after the previous game of the chronological saga and it being on a Tuesday as well makes it feasible.
Now i would think that 343 probably wouldn’t have the game ready for this earlier release date which could be why they’re launching in November instead of September like every single halo title since Halo 3 (excluding Halo Wars) has.
What do you think! Wouldn’t it have been awesome?
Would u rather them lack a little polish and release earlier?
Halo 3 was garbage Halo 2 was gold. They did the right thing in making me think of Halo 2 by having it come out so close to the Halo 2 release date. Either way I’ll take the later date to ensure the game is polished… Why would you want a game to have a few more glitches? That’s pretty moronic in my opinion.

Didn’t H2 have a few problems at launch? Like no online co-op?

Halo 2 was rushed by Microsoft, most of Halo 3’s campaign was meant to be in Halo 2, also, there was the graphics poping, like the opening cut scene where the elite’s helmet hit’s the floor, you see the helmet, and the back ground, but most things in the for ground took a sec or two to show them selves.
“When it’s done” is the perfect release date if you ask me
Seriously, the last thing 343i would need was for Halo 4 to be known for it’s bugs, to be like any recent Bethesda game. Halo 4 needs to deliver a great experience on release, out of the box, even if it means they’ll have to take extra time to polish it. I think Ms learn from Reach, unfinished games don’t live long.
Halo needs to set the standard, to be the best, and as such it needs to be as bug-free as games were in the early 90’s, before day 1 patch. Come to think of it, I rather add 6 months to any games dev time, then have a buggy experience at release, that’s why I seldom buy games at release, the bugs ain’t fixed until after a month or two and the price has dropped anyhow.

I think a lot of people on here never got the chance to play Halo 2 in it’s hay day so Halo 3 is their go to halo game. But I agree Halo 3 was disappointing campared to Halo 2. Also just my opinion.
i think its a good date, ties in with a few significant moments in the Haloverse.
On a side note, im not complaining but where has all this Halo 2 love come from all of a sudden??? Ive always been an avid supporter of Halo 2, and stand by it being my favourite Halo game to this date, however i have always been shunned by the community for this in the past lol? Now all of a sudden people are saying it was better than Halo 3, which i wholeheartedly agree with, its just wierd hearing people agree lol
