I dont know how this rumor got started, but where did the" If you beat Halo on easy and legendary in under three hours you get two new weapons", rumor come from. Does anybobdy know, and more importantly how did people come to find out that this rumor was false, can you actually beat the game in under three hours on the easy and then legendary, is that even possible?

There are no unlockable features of any kind in Halo. (Other than the fact that the first time through the game you cannot play the next level until you beat the previous one.)
There are various engine exploits and easter eggs which people have found over the few years that halo has been around. The easter eggs are all documented at HBO (see my sig for the link).
There is an engine exploit on Pillar of Autumn which will allow a player to carry 3 weapons for the entirety of that level, but once the level is over, you are back to the intended 2. Its another case of a "Yellow Banshee" type deal where someone makes up something so outrageously difficult that noone can easily prove it wrong.
In any case, I say again, there are no special "unlockable" features in Halo. What you see is what you get and that is good enough to be better than just about any game anyone else has put out.
