Sorry guys here is what you are seeing.....
RUMOR #1: Bungie is making a Halo game for the Game Boy Advance.
Source: Too many to count.
The official story: "We can officially lay that rumor to rest."--a post on the official Bungie Web site.
What we heard: Last weekend, forums were afire with word that Bungie was developing a version of Halo for the Game Boy Advance. Given the bitter GameCube/Xbox console war, a collaboration between Microsoft and Nintendo is "very unlikely," according to an official denial by Bungie of the GBA Halo's existence. Still, the rumors persisted, fueled by "visual evidence," which consisted of screenshots of a professional-looking side-scrolling shooter (pictured) that showed the Master Chief battling Covenant Grunts and Elites. In fact, a side-scroller called Halo: Blood Covenant is being developed--by a group of amateurs for the PC. Motivated by its creators' desire to "re-create the old passion for those long-gone arcade platforms," the game is an unofficial tribute to Halo, and it will be free once it is complete. However, that may be a while, since the 2D 'scroller is only being worked on part-time and won't be ready "when it's done."
Bogus or not bogus?: Bogus. The only way you can get a handheld Master Chief is to buy a Halo action figure.
