OH MY GOD. halo 2 just came out, give bungie a chance! it took then 3 years to make halo 2 i think they will need more than a year to make halo 3[ a good game] for halo 3 to be good, theywould need like 2 years, RUSHED, but one and a half years for halo 3? i don't think so. they would have to slop it altogether and use stuff from halo 2, thats just bad....it won't happen, it will be delayed. I KNOW it will. Halo 2 was delayed i think twice. it ended up 3 years for halo 2, the xbox wasn't powerful enough to render some halo 2 graphics, in result the "mushy-chief" or the "smooth keyes": that was result of a lack of graphic power, but it was a result of otherwise, as well.
anyway, theres not way halo 3 will be released that quick.
