I read the story when it was fist posted yesterday. A bit disappointing but I'm really excited about the new maps. It's gonna seem like a new game. The next few weeks are going to seem excruciatingly long. Luckily, there's <a href="http://www.gamespot.com/xbox/action/splintercell3/preview_6119671.html">"Splinter Cell:Caos Theory"</a> and of course <a href="http://jade.bioware.com/">"Jade Empire"</a> to keep us occupied. Actually, those two games are looking so awesome that I'm sure <i>I'll forget all about Halo2 temporarily</i>. Have you read anything about either of those? "Jade Empire" has a new website which is pretty cool. Later dude.[/quote]
