: Interesting how whenever anyone from Bungie talks about Halo 2's development,
: they still always preface it with how much they screwed up the development
: cycle and how much had to be cut. Really suggests that the Halo 2 we got
: wasn't the game they intended it to be.

: I'd kill to see the original script!

Ya, I am curious as to what the original script might have been like - and what type of character development may have been lost as a result. I just watched IGN's podcast with Max Hoberman last night and he said the original plot did not include a trip to delta halo. Although he admitted to being a bit foggy on campaign details since he was entrenched in MP, he seemed confident on this one. I don't remember hearing about this in the past but maybe it's just been too long - either way, delta halo was the scene for several levels, seems quite surprising this was a new direction taken during some of the cuts for campaign.
