Halo: Reach

Halo: Reach snagged early from Microsoft's servers

Continuing in the sad tradition of Halo 2 and 3 before it, Halo: Reach has apparently been leaked. Modders at Game-Tut.com found a way to trick Microsoft's servers, which are currently hosting the full game download. The download is intended for select media and only accessible with a code -- well, until Game-Tut apparently cracked that security measure. The site has yet to openly leak the files to the general public.

It appears that the game is leaking other places as well. At least one video released shows off a tour of Forge in the game's Firefight mode, and spoilers for the game can be found everywhere from Bungie's official forums to NeoGAF (if you really want to see them, you can find them yourself).

While Microsoft and Bungie will be hosting the usual slate of Halo review events around the world in the coming weeks, it appeared as though the companies were relaxing around the usually tightly-controlled media access to the series by uploading the game to Xbox Live. Unfortunately, the system proved vulnerable to the insatiable demand for Halo, which facilitated another early game leak for this high profile franchise.

Update: A Microsoft spokesperson told Joystiq, "We are aware of claims being made regarding a security exploit related to Halo: Reach and are aggressively investigating the matter. We have no further details to share at this time."

Boardwalk looks awesome. Countdown not so much. Firefight maps aren't playable in regular multiplayer are they? Not sure why anyone would avoid that video, it shows like 30 seconds of some multiplayer maps, it's not gonna ruin the game for you or anything, but whatever.

Sept 14 nao plz!

Edit: Question for you guys. After playing Reach, I can't seem to get back into the default control schemes for Halo 3. Reach's scheme was actually really comfortable. Did you guys just bear through with default or switch to 3's Bumper Jumper or Walkie Talkie. The Walkie Talkie mode seems similar to Reach's default atm...just a tiny bit awkward not having X as Reload.

I've been playing Bumper Jumper basically since H3 came out so I don't know what to tell you haha.

Already ending spoilers being posted on /v/, lol. Ends pretty closely to how I assumed it would (and I'm sure most other people will be thinking the same thing). All I'm hoping for is tons of hidden/secret shit to dick around with. I remember spending ages trying to get out of maps and doing crazy stuff in Halo 1 and 2, just wasn't the same in Halo 3.

Halo: Reach's ending is worth of the Video Game hall of fame. It is completely and utterly badass in every way.
