Things are taken out alot of the time is because 1) it doesn't fit the story 2) is scripting problems.
In fact, on the collecter edition extra DVD they said they tried to put mobbing beasdt that would travel and attack in packs, but had to take um out because of scripting problems.

honestly the earth levels were f*ing cool, for the most part.. and then the temple levels on delta halo were even cooler... with fewer snipers on legendary (god they get annoying in legendary <!--emo&:angry:--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/mad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='mad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> ), i wouldn't have minded like 4 more semi copy-paste levels of each. <!--emo&:(--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/sad-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='sad-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> so fun.
I feel the exact same way. I felt betrayed when the game ended; they didn't even need the ending cinimatic... just a big **** billboard that reads "buy Halo3/Xbox2".
It figures though, if Halo had come to an end... how the hell would MS sell their haloboxes.... errrr Xbox 2s.
If you bought Halo 2 for the single player (like me) You'll feel pretty much the exact same way.
Edit: its not so much that they <i>MIGHT HAVE</i> done this... its that they set up extensive and detailed advertising around a section/theme/plotline of the game that doesn't even exist!

*sigh* the two games I bought an X-box for (Halo 2 and Fable) turn out to be extremely overhyped crap.. I think I'm going to try and sell my X-box while it's still popular. Although I am very happy with Ninja Gaiden.

I just got to the ending tonight.
And then the ending came
HALO 2 is like watching one of your more favorable TV shows of old, comming back for a new series (after lots of hype) that while entertaining doesnt quite catch the essence of the orgional, (Kinda like Star Wars Episode 1) then when you get to what you think is the ending you get that annoying TO BE CONTINUED message.

Yea, games like this always have the "To Be Continued..." thing tagged on. Like those season ending episodes of a series... with the "tune in next season for the dramatic conclusion!" ...Except no body cares anymore when the new season comes.
<!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo--> It sounds crazy enough to be real. I just read all the Cortana letters.
Bungie likes the letter 7 too much... it's the tru<span style='color:orange'>7</span>h
It's 12 midnight, good night folks. I'll edit this w/ a real post tomorrow.
If you people look at Halo 2 at just face value, of course your going to be disappointed. You gotta look farther in, beyond the skin, beyond the armor, beyond the flesh.
Master Chief, Spartan, John 117. John 1:17 For the Law was given through Moses; grace and truth were realized through Jesus Christ.
John 11:7 Then after this He *said to the disciples, "Let us go to Judea again."
Then also search the Bible, looking for references to The Ark. and The Ark of the Covenant.
Bungie is like this with many of their games...sorta superficial story, unless you spend time looking at it.

We have a winner!
Anyhoo, Bungie's connection with the number seven is huge, now if I could only find that page with the list of 'em..
