Halo 2.5 news and 2 http://news.teamxbox.com/xbox/7408/Halo-25-and-Xbox-2-The-Bomb/ Read on Halo 2.5 this is what really caught me in that article I'm gonna save my money now. I can't stand memory cards anymore.
I cant read this from work (the link above) but there is a new Xbox coming out? and Halo has been out for less then 2months and now there is a 2.5 coming out?
Code: Have you been naughty or nice? Maybe Santa cares about that when delivering Christmas gifts but we here at TeamXbox have a present for you regardless. You can wait until Christmas night to open your gift or keep reading for what might be the very first real info on Halo 2 Director?s Cut. OXM was the first to report about Halo 2.5 revealing that the game is planned as an Xbox 2 launch title but now you?re going to read the very first details, straight from one of our most trusted sources: ?Halo 2.5 will be an Xbox 2 launch title and is going to run in HDTV resolution with new, improved textures and graphical effects. All the stuff that people expected from Halo 2 but didn?t make the cut will be there.? Although our source didn?t specify which HDTV resolution the game will run at, HDTV?s lower spec is enough to get excited. Can you imagine Halo 2 running at 1280x720?!!! We also wonder what was meant by ?all the stuff people expected from Halo 2 but didn?t make the cut.? With this kind of top-secret info, you don?t ask; you simply listen. We cross our fingers that this will include online co-op, more multiplayer maps, and the final conclusion to the Halo 2 story. ?The technology that powers Halo 2 has been designed from day one to take advantage of the next generation hardware,? the insider added. ?In Halo 2, the Xbox was pushed to its limits but now the game will reach new heights with the advanced hardware.? But that is not the only info our insider had for us as soon after he dropped the bomb: ?Now, here is the twist. Halo 2.5 will come preloaded with the optional HDD. It?ll be one of the two reasons to get the Xbox 2 that comes with a hard drive. The other reason? well, you?ll just have to wait? Sounds crazy to us but that?s what we have been told. Interestedly, if this is true, the rumor confirms the existence of, at least, two editions of the Xbox successor. Last month, we reported about the supposed Microsoft plan to release three versions of the Xbox successor. Although never in console history has an add-on sold enough to represent a large percentage of the install base, the inclusion of Halo 2.5 would probably sell millions of hard drives and/or other peripherals that includes this special edition. And supposedly, there?s still one other reason?what could that be?
XBOX 2 are divided in these: 1 --- w/ a HD 2 --- w/o HD 3 --- Box wherein you can play PC games **** if the version 3 is what im thinking (like a pc dedicated for playing PC games AS WELL AS XBOX games), this is the one im getting. although this version will be released in the spring of 2006.
