Halo 2 leaked

I'm not sure exactly how this will affect this arg, but Halo 2 has started to pop up on warez and hacks sites. To be clear, I don't actually go to these sites, but a link was posted on my local gaming forum.

Ok... I searched for it before I posted and found nothing... so.... sorry.

I want to make it clear that I DO NOT endorse stealing games nor do I intend on providing any links to such related sites.

I just wanted to inform others that this happened.

It was also the FRENCH version of HALO2.

Not to mention that there is a lengthy movie stripped from the ISO to make it fit on DVD5 instead of DVD9.

So imagine that the warezed ISO is only 2.8

That could mean a big honkin movie on the game that might make sense out of all this stuff we're doing now.

I am happily waiting until the 9th when I get my Collectors / Limited Edition.

Welcome to the lock

Just had to do this...
Locky!

I'm not even going to look for this broken version of the game, since I have the deluxe version on reserve already.

Incidentally, do the right thing:
Email the links on that forum, and the link to the forum itself, to piracySPLATmicrosoft.com.

As far as I know, no copies were distributed to the press for review yet... so blaming a "French reviewer" doesn't make much sense. Right now the most likely theory is that a production copy was stolen from the assembly line.

All Is Not Lost! We have the final laugh!!!

Well, from the whispers going around the net, people seem to think that this is not the final code.

Info I've gathered so far about this leaked versions is:- (Don't worry no spoilers, just facts about the problems with the game)

*It's all French Speech with English Subtitles

*Sometimes it bugs out, with characters getting stuck and glitching out

*Vechiles doing some weird spinning things when hit by powerful enemy shots

*Lots of pop ups. Cut scenes being the worse, taking 1-2 seconds for full details to appear, and same thing in the actual game sometimes

*When killed, sometimes you will disappear into a grey nothingness.

Just stupid things like that! So all is not lost! It sounds like it not the Retail code, probably some final beta test code.

Basicly, people who have downloaded the game early have spoilt it for themselves by playing what sounds like to be an untested/unfinished copy!

So come Nov 9 (US) & Nov 11 (UK), we will be getting a better experience of the game than these Pirating Assholes who spoil it for themselves and others, and getting the last laugh!

Limited Edition here I come!! YEEEE HAAAAA!

I viewed a movie of Halo 2 being played on Legendary, it was quite funny watching the moron die very easily. On another note, though, the game looked horrible (IE twasn't finished =] ) or maybe it was the quality of the video itself. Well, regardless, I doubt it was the finished version.

Im glad this did not happen earlier like another game I am waiting for ::cough::HL2::cough::

Something tells me you will be eating those words once you start playing legendary in halo 2.
