I have enough hope in the good folks posting here that no one wbe vile enough to post spoilers. I feel confident that if a fellow beekeeper were foolishly inclinded to do so, a moderator would ban him in the blink of an eye. Also, in mention to those of you who would try to grab this... BITORRENTS ARE VERY TRACKABLE, AND THIS IS NOT WORTH THE RISK NOW, IS IT? have a nice day

Not sure how true this, but apparently on suprnova the original seed has gone. I dont' know enough about the site and tech, but hopefully they can trace each one and lock them out.

I checked suprnova as well just now, I don't see any torrent for halo 2 on there at all. Maybe someone got to them somehow?

I do see it on usenet though, which means there's likely no stopping distribution at this point.

[fugitivesoldier]

Anyone who downloads it faces a max fine of $10,000.

I'll gladly take the 25.5 days of waiting instead.

...punishing even minor transgressions
with shockingly excessive force is the best deterrent


irony, no?

HBO will refuse to cover it, being as they are BIIIIIG Bungie fans. They've gone far, faaaaaaaaaar out of their way to avoid spoiling it, and they WILL continue.

However, it's probably all over GameFAQs, being as that's constantly discussing pirate copies (look at the DOOM 3 forum...)

EDIT: so right:

[Lutzie]

Gamefaqs need to be shut down as a service to humanity to be honest.

On the other hand at least all the tards flock there and stay there where normal people can avoid them.

[Incitatus]

I have found the version hidden on a particularly easy-to-get and popular source.
I will disclose no further.

I may have... pirated... things before, but I am no longer a member of that exclusive group. theft of any kind is wrong.
And now that the damned pirates have obtained THE game...

Well. I simply won't download it. nor will I condon or assist the spread of this cancer.


Be Warned. if I find so much as 1 spoiler, one individual posting anything about their STOLEN copy of Halo2... I will hunt you down.
Bungie deserves better. We all do for that matter.

Just because it's gone from bittorrent, or not on the newsgroups yet, or not in your local IRC channel, it's still out there on the private FTP's that form the backbone of the warez networks.

Fortunately, it'll be nuked from most for not being in english. Even so, there's no way to stop it.

You know, I think I might have been the reason it disappeared from suprnova after I read the news, I checked the site and it was there in all it's 2.8GB glory... it only had around the 20-50 seed/leech range, but I saw it, and immediately shot an email off to piracySPLATmicrosoft.com and checked a few hours later, and it was gone... I didn't download the torrent tracker, so I can't tell if it's still active or not, but I like to think I had a hand in one source removal heh

[AirForce11]

Stop the theft!

[Lutzie]

Well done thebruce. Even if it wasn't you who directly caused the seed to get wiped you did the right thing by reporting it, something to be proud of matey.
