Yea, dude, the person who leaked is almost definetely going to get found out, and then sent to jail with Bubba. The problem is with the bit torrent downloads, a lot of people can download from those very quickly and its harder to trace. Bit torrent links to Halo 2 are probably the biggest threat, so make sure to report them to piracy@microsoft.com.

I think the best way to get rid of this whole piracy thing is to start a rumor on every other forum other than on HBO and bungie that states that in some way. That the person that loaded the disk onto the internet inserted a worming virus that completely multiplies until it crhasis itself. And has a tracking bug in it so Microsoft can track you and hunt you down

Come on everyone start that ruhmor oh and claim your friend downloaded it so you don't get in trouble by someone who dosnt know what your doing.

if I hear anything about someone having the pirated copy of Halo 2, I will rat them out in a heartbeat. I don't care if they are my best friend, and as a matter of fact i'm adding 1-800-RULEGIT to my cell phone right now!

I stromgly believe that the november 9 release will be the same in all of its glory to those who are loyal to the game. As for those who got the pirated copy, They wont be able to enjoy the staying out untill midnight to get the game, going over to a friends house all night, and playing the game the next day because you have an excuse to get out of school and/or work. Halo 2 will be great reguardless of a few SOBs.

Dude, its already been announced that it wont effect the game. And bungie is firm w/ their word. And keep in mind, that the faster the game gets out, the less people wholl download it.

I heard this in an AIM chat a while ago, and thought it may intrest you like it did me. It may be bogus, but somewhat makes a slight bit of sense. Scary.

Somebody Wrote:

Is it just me or is this all starting to smell of a hyping tool? I'm not doubting what bungie said, but why would they (Being of the mind not wanting us to see campain spoilers) sends a fanbase of all age groups to find the stuff FOR THEM?! It's almost like an Easter Egg hunt. Seing as how it happened overnight without warning (Bungie normally being of a mindset that denies rumors, fixes the problem, then releases an update to set the record straight) seems almost like an planned Event rather than an honest accident. What are your thoughts?


Well, there it is. Absurd, but makes you wonder.

Basically the people that are downloading Halo 2 right now are the bigger threat. One lone pirater is helpless without the websites that distribute and the people that download. There's one at my school who downloads games without mercy (damn his mod chip!). Tomorrow he gets his ass beat. With a very large stick.
