Today during school i was talking to this kid that said that his cousin downloaded the pirate copy of Halo2 onto his xbox. He also said a long time ago that this same cousin hacked Halo and made plasma grenades shoot out of a assault rifle. He only told me that his first name is Mike and i think he live in California i tried to get more out of him but he wouldn't tell me. So i threatened to beat him up so i can find out sbout his last name and where he lives or his phone number so that Bungie could find him if it's true. Please post anything suspicious here so that we could help out Bungie.

Ummm...just becuase he can hack Halo and make the AR shoot plasma grenades does not mean that he is the one who pirated Halo 2. Your reasoning is way off. I can hack Halo and make the AR shoot plasma grenades....does that mean I am the one that pirated Halo 2? No it doesn't. So do go off thinking that anyone who mods is the pirate.

Just out of curiosity how old are you?

Wow. The pure source of evil. Some kid named Mike from California. Lets save the world.

I doubt that your "evidence" will really help Bungie. Sirously, how many kids are named Mike... in California!? That stole Halo 2!? The person who stole Halo 2 was probably a member of the press, or somebody who just walked quickly through Bungie studios and grabbed the first Halo 2 disc he/she could see. (However if it was a she, Bungie would have probably been on high alert. =)) Only one person stole Halo 2, and just sourced it all over the web. Keeping in mind even just playing it right now is illegal (except for beta testing), I strongly think that this Mike is the source of all of Bungies problem, although he really shouldn't.

In conclusion, this dosn't really help Bungie. If you do meet his cousin, tell him to get rid of Halo 2. Case closed.

kids will always boast to make themselves seem cool. Beat them up just for acting like jerks if you want, but be careful before you start calling in the big guns at Microsoft. They DO take it seriously.
