Microsoft did it to themselves, they got sloppy with the control of copies of the game. It was already being spread around before I came over here in early August. Developers don't have the ability to put the game onto discs that a consumer Xbox can read, only Microsoft does, why they ever did it is beyond me, and if they did, they should've kept it on a very tight leash.

What I don't understand is this has all the signs of Microsoft deliberately leaking the game, much in the way Apple leaks software and info out to generate hype. But Halo 2 already had enough hype, and why take the risk of having mediocre feedback if they can sell the game just fine without anything but the name?
