IGN - November 5, 2004

When reporters who never even played I Love Bees and clearly have no clue whatsoever get to go to the event and then immediately Ebay their lanyard, I do this. Crying or Very sad

Also, how hard is it to spell "big?" Jesus.

CNN Money - Nov 9

http://money.cnn.com/2004/11/08/commentary/game_over/column_gaming/index.htm

"Microsoft is hoping to keep that momentum going once legitimate copies go on sale -- and has spent the last several months doing all it can to incite gamer hysteria. In July, the company began running "Halo 2" trailers before major motion pictures. It also wooed the hard-core gaming audience with an online, alternate-reality game, which proved to be an enormous success. "

There were at least two local news reports on the Halo2 release; no mention of ilovebees. MS must be in heaven over all the news attention.
