when they talk about leaks and what not? why the big deal? i am new so dont get the wrong idea, but i was wondering. Why do that? and why not let rumors go? it'll build up excitment for the game I think. It will hype the game more, when there is rumors alowed to be spread. why take it to such extreams guys?

poeple will become involved into the rumors so much that when the game is released, they will be disappionted. and it could cuassse sales to go down

Because most of the time people do not realize that they are rumors, then it just becomes a major spam of the forums about that topic. If you were here for the ilovebees.com thing when halo 2 was still being developed you would see why. Speculation is perfectly fine, assuming what the game will be like, making rumors that you saw something and made it real and suddenly make a big deal out of it and its not true, is different

also remember, nothing is official until bungie says it

Would YOU want everyone to know everything about your game before its released? Its better to just let people make their own theories. Besides, Bungie will just use their usual can't confirm nor deny while secretly firing the employees that leaked it.

Did you know the entire storyline from Halo 2 before you played on November (th when it came out? if you knew the whole story would you have bought it? If you are trying to keep what you are working on a secret until you unveil it do you want peopl estarting rumors about what it will or will not be, thereby forcing you to change what you are doing so you don't look like you plagurized some cracked out 15 year old on a video game forum? also my opinion dosen't matter and I just wasted 15 seconds of your life while you read this.
