yes, this sh1t is bad, but you can't stop it. Really, it's like trying to kill a virus in the next 24-25 days. It won't happen. Plus, why even panic? It's only about 3 weeks away anyhow.But, If you're gonna do some cleaning up, take out the big sites you can find on google available to the public who don't even know that Bungie makes Halo 2.

I didn't think Halo 2 could possibly be played on a PC since it is an Xbox exclusive game. If this is for real, I am extremely dissapointed and angered. I will do my part to minimize spoilers and piracy. I want the story to be a suprise for myself and everyone else. It will be amazing, and it will be a revelation.


Halo 2 pirated copy can be played on a xbox that has a mod chip installed all they have to do is copy it to their hd and they will be able to load it that way... not on the pc...

I still got some ties to and friends in the piracy underground, so I'll pull some strings and see what I can find out. Your big problem is if it becomes a Torrent file, which are impossible to stop (But easy to track who's downloading...). As long as it stays on private FTP's you guys should be fine, but once it's a torrent file then not even Master Chief himself could win against such odds.

I'm waiting for November 9th. I've had many opportunities to play Halo 2, but I'm waiting for the 9th of Novermber and that's final. Besides, haven't you guys heard, "Good things come to those who wait"?

Here's what I do know:
1) No single person leaked Halo 2. A group -had- to be involved for this. No other possible way.
2) It's the PAL French version with English Subtitles. So you might want to look at European Release Groups.
3) It's not as spreading as fast as it could be, which is good. I haven't seen many FTP's with it yet, which either shows a lack of completed downloads for the file or the fact people want to wait. I'll keep monitoring.
4) Xbox Live is not playable in the version (Duh), so they're only getting maybe 50% or less of the game.
5) You'll need a modded Xbox to play, which slims down the amount of possible people to download the version. Again, this narrows it down to a specific niche of people.
6) I haven't seen any group claim responsibility. As SOON as I see a group tag, I'll forward it to Bungie ASAP.

I'll update the community as I know more. It sucks a minority spoils the fun for the majority, ne?

I love the battle station line. But holy crap this is bad news. Bungie, we are marshalling our forces as fast as we can. Good luck guys.

Getting a bug when trying to edit my post, and I hate to double-post, but I did find that Suprnova doesn't have it on their tracker right now, which is a really good thing for you all. Keep ya'll posted.

Warez Network doesn't have it up either, and they're usually the first besides Suprnova to get it. Still pulling strings, updates to come.

Hellfire and brimstone to the French. There always has been a problem with the French and piracy.
Back in the 16-1800's the French were the main suppliers of privateers on the high seas. The thing is, that the French government actually REWARDED these scallywags for the ships and weapons that they could scavenge for the tht e French navy.
