Maybe it's because it's 5 AM, but the way that was worded was maybe the funniest thing I've heard all day, and made me laugh for a good 30 seconds.

What? None of you got your demo disk? I have mine sitting right here, and I'm in Staten Island, NY.

hoax....if you want to call it that. The authors of those posts were joking, hence the "lmao" at the end of them.

Psh, lame. When you buy something from Cafepress, the orders are processed automatically. They're send out directly from Cafepress's factory and the site owner doesn't even get to find out what your address is.

Nope, not true. Take it from an Aussie. It's definitely a joke/hoax.
If anything, we'll see the demo disk LAST.

That may all be a hoax, but this isn't!
Quote:
Ten weeks before release, a single copy of Halo 2 – the most anticipated Xbox game release ever – has hit the streets of Melbourne. Fortunately, the leak has been contained by legendary Aussie rockers, Regurgitator, who are holed up in a bubble and not letting any intruders in!
I just saw them go into their "bubble" on the tv show Rove Live, and they even had a real life Master Chief there waving to the crowd... I didn't hit record quickly enough to capture it though, but if someone in Perth or New Zealand is reading this look out for it.

Indeed it is not. I read about Halo 2 being in 'the bubble' just today, and it's being aired live, too. So I'll be sure to watch it with a digital camera handy in case I see any scenes with them playing Halo 2.
