Halo On The Daily Show

[dart321]

Anyone see the 2004 election coverage on the daily show? Was pretty funny. "I'm exit polling some covenant aliens John." Wish I had a video. This just goes to show the appeal Halo 2 is going to have.

Alright so maybe it wasn't funny but it's such a sock to see Halo being played on TV.

 

[Pressure]

Like the time they played grand theft auto on The Daily Show?

 

[Dr.Killalot]

yeah i saw that too.it was quite funny

 

[DannoHung]

I was suprised that they actually referred to the things in the game.

Goes to show that Halo has seeped into Pop Culture in a large way.

Halo gets tonnes of cover in Australia. You see Chief running around the sport finals etc etc

Halo gets more coverage then HL2... It would be fun to see a man in a scientist suit giving out them sweet plush headcrabs

there is a halo 2 ute travelling around australia. hell, you can even get animated wallpapers for whatever city you live in [main ones like bris etc]

then there's that huge billboard which has only had coca cola advertisements on it for like the past 20 years .. well, one side is halo2

I ask one question. What happens after Halo 2? How are they going to continue the allready bloated storyline to new proportions, when those proportions are huge enough allready?

 

[JimmehH]

Nothing happens after Halo 2. They don't have any plans for another sequel apparently.

even though *apparantly* the ending is a cliffhanger? whats the point in a cliffhanger ending if there wont be a halo3?

Maybe they'll write another book about it.

Maybe they'll write another book about it.

god i hope so... the way they left the game wide open... there either has to be Halo 3, another book, or single-player downloadable content over XBLive

and i saw the clip

"YEA! Suck it you alien bastard! Where is your plasma rifle now, bitch?"
"Are you playing, Halo?"
"No, John... I was exit polling some covenant aliens"

watched the encore of the coverage just to see it again... it was teh phunnie!

I'm almost positive they plan to make a Halo 3. Bungie just said that Halo 3 is not their next project. I bet they'll be working on some premium Halo 2 content for us fans to spend more money on once the team gets back from their vacations and such. Maybe they're waiting for Xbox 2 er whatever...who knows.

I remember a long time ago...before there were even screenshots of Halo 2 that Halo was originally planned as a trilogy (I have no idea where I saw this...but I remember it).

 

[SidewinderX]

heh, yeah, quality daily show clip!

And my educated guess is that we can expect to see a Halo 3 launch/near launch title for XBX2

Bungie just said that Halo 3 is not their next project.

Well, I can tell you that nobody at Bungie said that it will or it won't be, so it's definitely just a rumor. The only thing that I can tell you about what we'll do next is that Bungie will definitely make another game. - Frank O' Conner on the rumor that the next Bungie game won't be Halo 3.

Consider my post stomped on then I'm glad it's not true.
