Eid? You mean 8? Hide his carkeys and offer an exchange.

Hmmmm...Closets, underneath beds, trunks of cars, and places like that are always good places to look.

I have an idea!

Selling your shitty XBox, and with the money bribe your dad into telling you where he hid Halo 2!

Tried all the thick books in the house?

Under the floor boards? Cat litter tray?

The PS2 (or whatever console you have)?

I know, down the back of the sofa

I concur. I have used this tactic in the past and it worked.

Check the ceiling. Always somewhere there. Or near where you normally play Halo 2, sometimes peopel think they are clever and hide it right in front of you, but it's hard to notice...

Check in cabinets: I tape things to the top when I don't want them found.

Good luck finding it. Kill some aliens for me when you do.

Look in rarely used pots and pans...or inside that suspicious box of Oat Bran that's been sitting in your kitchen for 6 months.

Did he specifically say he had hidden it at home? I used to hide my kids' presents at my office or at friends' homes.

dont find it and in fact dont play it...because if you do you will eventually come to the end of the game and witness the complete JOKE of an ending this game has....(damn bungie :mad: )

yes, the ending was a joke, but still it had some good story and the gameplay is awesome

Depending on how clean you are in your room, I would hide something there.

Remember the Ninja thing about hiding in plain sight.....

Good luck....

The trick to hiding anything narrow (book, cd, Xbox game) is to tape or bluetack it to the wall behind a picture.

Alternatively, when you line the books up on a bookshelf rather than pushing them right to the back, there's a little gap behind it. That wouldn't be my first guess though, cos if its something that's a challenge to find, it wants to be in a really obvious place so the person searching can be laughed at when they fail to find it.

Don't dismiss the possibility that the box and the CD might be in different places either, or that the paper cover thing on the box has been hidden behind/switched with another cover and then put in plain sight.

Toilet cistern-case thingy?
His car? Under the foot mat maybe?
In the microwave? (lol)

Failing that, do the aforementioned car-keys idea. It always works.

If he's smart, he's hidden it where he works. That's what I would do.

Ah, but is the point of the game to see the ending, or is the point of the game to have fun trying to reach the ending?

The fun is all in the gameplay. I just got off a 12-person team-slayer match on three linked X-boxs. Goddamn, but that was fun!

Try looking between furniture and the wall, under any carpet and behind curtains and paintings, anything that's hanging on the walls or a hook. Check to see if it's been folded into clothing or if it's been taped onto hanging clothing. Anything that stands on legs (tables, chairs, etc) could have it taped under it, and if you have cereal or cracker boxes, check them. Good Luck!
