I'm down right -blam!- disscsded about this (excuse the language). I first heard the news about it on gamespot.com on Friday and who ever was the insider is better have a very good and I do mean very good -blam!- reason why he/she did it. I really hope Microsoft really finds the -blam!- and sues the absolute -blam!- out of the person/s who did that.

Microsoft good luck on the hunt?

I, personally, wouldn't usually support Microsoft, due to their faulty software and constant need for updates, but this is HALO 2 man, and bungie. To that I say, Microsoft: Use all your billions of dollars for something useful. Track down the pirated game, and sue the asses of the pricks that released it. I can't say much about piracy, as it's a thing I've pretty much had to indulge in in the past (who can afford decent antivirus protection and firewalls?), but I do feel for bungie, putting in all that hard work. Let's just hope all the "12 year old army" and others can refrain from actually LOOKING at any pages related to Halo 2 other than trusted sites such as bungie...

For once, I half agree with XboxHacker. Even though the name is bull-blam!-. Modding consoles has been around for years, as long as consoles themselves, so it comes as somewhat of a surprise to hear that people don't know much about it... Still, spartan's right too, I mean, what's Halo 2 without a shiny metal case?

a burned dvd, or an iso file on a hard drive, or even a group of files on an xbox.

Not that XboxHacker knew anything about it; He's 21 and has to sit in forums of games he claims not to like yet simply can't get enough of, and diss poor kids, all the while using the vocabulary of an eleven year old, and the spelling of a 6 year old.

I'm not wasting my time going through forums looking for mistakes. By the way, for a "hacker", and an antagonist at that, that was a BLOODY slow comeback. Try using capitals where appropriate; they'll lift you from a Year 3 level to at least Year 9.

Please... stop. We aren't going to get Halo 2 early, unless we download it. By the way, is there a reason you always post in capitals? Just curious, because it makes it hard to read, and gives the impression that you're constantly yelling. And why do you hate pirates? Most of them are simply normal people, like you or me...

You saw my post earlier, I'm a New Zealander. How about you? You racist as well? Ok, I understand if you don't like the British, but still... You're the one who seems to know their slang. "Pip and proper"? -blam!- dude.

Just shut up XboxHacker and get ur ass off this forum, noone likes u and we all like Ikkon so go home to ur mom.

Lol, nicely done. Well, I'll stop using this forum for now, as it seems I have gone way off topic... Might see you some other time... Perhaps on Live... Until then...

Man this is such a stupid turn of events.This so stupid everyone all pissed at such a -blam!- hacker when the real problem is how could bungie let this happen.It seems to me that they should have never shipped the game to the stupid French.And been a tad more protective over the biggest game of the decade.They should not ship any of the real copys to anyone in France and all of Europe make them all pay.

Nearly 60 pages of people griping, insulting and cussing at each other. They say it a lot in the forums, but this forum has gone to crap. You guys want to rip on each other, hook up somewhere else...perhaps some other medium of communication. Somewhere where we don't have to read it or have to get past it to get any type of news concerning the topic at hand. If XboxHacker is happy about the game being available now and is content with ripping on kdis in the forum, then hey, that's his thing...but bragging about modding Xbox's? C'mon man, let's not get a huge ego off of that.

Wow, dude. That's a pretty bold remark. Just because one lousy guy pirated the game doesn't mean that we should cut France off. There's a whole mess of people here in the states that have downloaded it and couldn't care less. It happens to every game, Bungie knows this and so does Microsoft. They're holding up their end of what they do by shipping it to everyone. As long as the story and other things stay "under wraps" and copied DVD discs stay off the street, then things will be fine. Yea, we're pissed. But saying stuff like "...how could bungie let this happen" and "They should not ship any of the real copies to anyone in France and all of Europe, make them all pay" is going a tad far.
